“Every record been destroyed or falsified, books rewritten, pictures repainted, statues, street building renamed, every date altered. The process is continuing day by day. History stops. Nothing exists except endless present in which the Party is right.”
Re: Black Lives Matter
Wyclef Jean suggest all lives matter and the black community attacks him.
I will always enjoy listening to people explain how "all lives don't matter".

Re: Black Lives Matter
Whatever, if people get offended by (almost anything) this shit, fuck em.
It's not me, it's someone else.
Re: Black Lives Matter
I'm think it is a sign of mental illness. There's no way "perpetually offended" can be healthy.

Re: Black Lives Matter
On that contrary, it seems to be a sign of sanity. There's plenty in this world that offends. It's a matter of picking the right fuel for the fires of hatred.GORDON wrote:I'm think it is a sign of mental illness. There's no way "perpetually offended" can be healthy.

Individuals can't change shit, aside from 5 or 6 historical outliers (or whatever). Comit the energy to the small things you can change, and abide.

As Catt and I discuss Nike/Kaep (although, we're arguing from the same side so we're mostly just killing time), as pastors discuss race at Aretha's funeral, as everyone who doesn't vote Democrat is painted as a racist, and as the Black Lives Matter movement continues to fight for "justice", the FBI has released their crime stats from 2016.
Black people are unquestionably being murdered more than other races.
Meanwhile, let's look at some stats you never hear about:
So yay!
Quotes from here. Yeah, I know, it's the Post, but CNN certainly wasn't going to publish those stats.
Black people are unquestionably being murdered more than other races.
However...while Black Lives Matter is out there fighting against oppression from police, only 233 of those deaths are by police. Guess who killed the most black people. Hint: Aretha Franklin's pastor knows and got criticized for saying it.Nearly 900 additional blacks were killed in 2016 compared with 2015, bringing the black homicide victim total to 7,881. Those 7,881 “black bodies,” in the parlance of Ta-Nehisi Coates, are 1,305 more than the number of white victims (which in this case includes most Hispanics) for the same period, though blacks are only 13 percent of the nation’s population.
Meanwhile, let's look at some stats you never hear about:
In 2015, a police officer was 18.5 times more likely to be killed by a black male than an unarmed black male was to be killed by a police officer.
Meanwhile, property and violent crime are up, and we've already covered elsewhere that cops are far less likely to get out of their cars or question suspicious people due to the MSM and BLM.Black males have made up 42 percent of all cop-killers over the last decade, though they are only 6 percent of the population. That 18.5 ratio undoubtedly worsened in 2016, in light of the 53 percent increase in gun murders of officers — committed vastly and disproportionately by black males.
So yay!

I always wonder why the answer to more things isn't "Don't commit crimes"
It's not me, it's someone else.

Agree with that 100%.
Also still believe police should be held to a higher standard, including being fired for being afraid to get out of their car to do their job.

But when you get fired for doing it. . . Also, they are giving them what they want. "Stop harassing us". Somehow, the police are supposed to be 100% accurate in who they approach.
Still approach and question people. But only the criminals.
