I agree it "deserves" a name, it's not terrorism. It's also not to describe the entire BLM movement. It's a small number of people in the grand scheme. If we're painting BLM that way because of a few, then we're going to use that same logic for the police.

 

If those people are terrorists, like I mentioned, the bad cops we've been dealing with lately are also terrorists.

 

It's already happening, if you haven't noticed.

So if 4 cops left the game, who stayed to watch the game?

Thought I'd throw this tidbit of info in as the conversation in this thread turned into a BLM debate. As PPride says, he likes to lighten things up every once in a while. :thumb:

If you don't have a problem with BLM be portrayed that way, you shouldn't have a problem with LE being portrayed that way.

When BLM quits calling for the assassination of police, I'll be willing to listen with a more sympathetic ear.

BLM doesn't call for the assassination of police, but keep telling yourself that to dismiss the message you don't want to hear.

So do we just ignore the group that claims to be affiliated as they march and chant "pigs in a blanket, fry em like bacon"?

 

It's just convenient that it's a BLM protest until violence is called for in the media then it's "we don't know those guys". Maybe there are true peaceful BLM members, but there's a whole bunch claiming to be BLM that are extremely violent...

Except when they do as evidenced by some of the links posted in various threads.

 

Exactly what message is a father of black daughters, such as myself, dismissing?

Just a moment...

 

Go there and show me where they are calling for the assassination of cops.

So that's what you're putting your entire belief that BLM doesn't advocate violence, is cause it's not on their website?

 

IF they were advocating violence, I'd like to think the head folks at BLM are more intelligent than to put it on their webpage :lol2:

If you keep saying something over and over no matter how much the evidence contradicts it, people will believe you. See Ferguson.

 

Plenty of people at these organized BLM events have chanted for violence against police, and when people actually become violent their so called leaders claim they don't advocate violence.

 

If they don't advocate violence, maybe they could help identify every single violent protester to law enforcement. That would take up most of their time though.

If you all are going to continue to dismiss BLM because of the actions of a few, then I'm going to assume all cops are racist killers. I'm done with this conversation. Good job.

You assume all cops profile but it's not on any Police Dept website that they do. Can't have it both ways Deuce. And you know good and well a lot Of folks claiming to be BLM advocate violence and stop saying "a few". The Internet is loaded with videos of hundreds upon hundreds advocating violence And claiming to be BLM. But that's fine, take your ball and go home. As you referred to the officers doing the same for standing up for what they believe in, "weak sauce"...

Hyperbole much? As I understand it, the protest in Dallas was completely non-violent until one individual chose murder.

At almost every BLM protest i see signs accusing every cop of being a racist killer. They scream at officers who they don't even know. They throw things at officers they don't know. They injure and threaten officers they don't know.

 

I see many comments by posters here on threads about the way a white person is treated by police insinuating it would have went differently if the person had been black, when those posters dont even know the officer in question.

How about the one in Minnesota? Was that the one where over 20 officers were injured? For every "peaceful" protest there are several that are not peaceful.

 

Do you consider blocking an interstate peaceful?
