BLM movement should quit while they're ahead...that hole they're digging is getting deeper & deeper.
I have always understood and occasionally sympathized with the BLM movement but no more. They want to act like a band of savage idiots then that's how I shall view them......and they did it all to themselves!
And as far as respect goes, they're right down there with DACA and muslims and have no "RIGHT" to "DEMAND" anything. You live in America---ACT LIKE IT or leave, is that so hard to figure out?
The problem with this is that is what the left wants. If you imagine that all blacks are violent thugs they win. The left wants to encourage racism - so they can swoop in and be the good guy.
Don't get me wrong - in the young black male community there is a huge problem with criminal behavior. Something like 1/3 of black men are felons. 1/3 is a huge as problem - but the other 2/3 are not.
I don't even fault black men that much to be perfectly honest - not even the thugs.
If someone told me Hey you can smash Target and take whatever you want out it with not only without punishment - but with praise because of your racial background.. Not sure I wouldn't smash a Target.
If you "educate" people and feed them story after story about how they are oppressed and its evil white men ruining their life.. I don't think its crazy to expect them to act on that shit.
The left is essentially selling out people for personal profit and power.
Yet we all know (even rioters and looters) right from wrong
Can't rely on moral compasses - you need violent acts to have consequences that fit the crime. If you remove those consequences - you will get more violent acts.
It's much better to have this realistic view then imagine that parents will just start imparting morality to children.
