    What situation? Do you think blacks are responsible for how they feel they get treated by a system they claim is stacked against them? I know they had Obama, but the black minority are not the masters of their own destiny within a white society geared to ignore or punish the poor, IMO.

    That’s not a race issue, that is a poverty issue. The ‘system’ in most countries is stacked against the poor. Most don’t break out of poverty.

    Interesting thing is, many many very recent poor black immigrants in the US thrive. Why? because they work like dogs and spend all their money on their families. So extremely poor new arrivals in the US thrive whereas moderately poor Citizens can’t progress.

    If you are using the 'alllivesmatter' hashtag and don't know any better or are confused why people are mad at you let me explain it:
    1. The original hashtag 'BlackLivesMatter' was a reaction to a string of well documented cases of police brutality that resulted in the death of a long list of unarmed black people. On top of that there was no appropriate punishment for the police officers involved. They mostly got paid or unpaid leave until the heat died down and continued back at their jobs after that. Meanwhile the families and friends of the deceased got no justice. This sends shockwaves of trauma throughout the immediate community, the country of the US and the rest of the black population outside of the US too. This original hashtag started to really shine a light of the system wide oppression of black people in America and elsewhere.
    2. The oppressors decided that this hashtag would gather too much momentum and decided they needed to water it down and dilute it with 'alllivesmatter' to protect the racist system that they benefit from. And to some degree it's working (COINTELPRO). Every time you use that hashtag you are doing the work of the oppressor. You are being used as a pawn. You are being manipulated into diluting a movement that's main goal is end police brutality.
    2a. Nobody using the 'BlackLivesMatter hashtag is saying Only Black Live Matter. It is universally understood that all lives matter.
    3. So, now that you are educated on the deceitful and hateful and manipulative reasons for this 'alllivesmatter' hashtag to exist you should stop doing the work of the oppressor and stop using it and stop being used.
    3a. If you've read all this and understand it and still use the 'alllivesmatter' hashtag then shame on you. You are a terrible human.

    Let me explain to you why you’re wrong.

    Did I wish him harm? No

    Am I sad a person like him is dead? No

    Unluckily for young black men they have a habit of escalating bad behavior. If they learned a few basics they would actually control their encounters with Police.

    If there was only some to teach them better behavior. If only there was some video they could watch

    Wholesome video of Gardai stopping a gang of black teens who were armed with baseball bats.

    And yet many Irish "Men" piss themselves at the thought of getting a gun to protect themselves and their families.

    Now with MN and NYC vowing to disband [MN City Council to disband] or defund [NYC] Police Dept its only a matter of time until virtue signalling Councillor or TD declares they would defund or disband the Gardai. Especially if we're bound for the polls again before the year is over.

    US police should stand down for two or three weeks.
    Turn up to work but dont respond to calls. Give them a taste of what they are screeching for.

    Definitely. Let these idiots continue to burn down their cities and let the Police relax at home with their families and then let these Mayors and Governors kneel for the Police before they resign in shame.

    A Blue-Flu 2.0 is richly needed.

    Some American cities, like Chicago, have third levels of violence.

    How on earth does the left think getting rid of the police is a good idea? It will be every man for himself.

    Murders spiked in a number of US cities including Chicago, Barak Obama's home town, a city which has been a basket case for some time now...

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mp113sOnkEU

    There have been leaked audiotapes of a phone conference involving Aldermen and The City's Mayor....it is astonishing stuff!!!

    The had 18 murders in one day last week...this is what happens when you elect poor city leaders.

    Defund the police is going to make the situation far worse...I'd say private gun sales are going through the roof at the moment.

    Who remembers FAG from Team America, it's like it's happening in real time.

    I couldn't watch more than 30 seconds of that vapid nonsense but tell me Matt Damon made an appearance?

    And thank Christ for that. If there is one thing we don't want to import from the States it's their gun culture.

    As with everything it's a matter of balance. Everyone has a duty to behave with respect towards their fellow human beings. That wouldn't be a bad place to start would it ?

    Yet another organization cashing in and playing righteous. The names of Premier League players will be replaced by black lives matter for the remainder of the 19/20 season, even tho political statements are banned from being on shirts. Buts it ok once they have their seat on the bandwagon. Whats going to happen to clubs or players who simply don't want to get involved with supporting an anarchist organization? I hope players do refuse and band together. I wonder how many players and countries will protest the slavery and mistreatment of workers at the upcoming world cup in Qatar....thats if they don't get "canceled" first of course.

    Black Lives Matter activist Oluwatoyin Salau found dead June 14th. 49-year-old suspect Aaron Glee Jr. (not a white cop), has been arrested. The other victim in the double murder by Glee was a 75-year-old Victoria Sims who was an activist just like Salau.

    Mr Glee JR is a person of colour, so don’t expect this story to get much traction.

    Is the jersey name thing voluntary for the footballers?

    Any footballer brave enough to stand up against this will be branded a racist and be hounded by leftists.

    The black lives matter movement has shown me that racism is thought.

    Beethoven was black? According to another tweeter "Every famous historical person was black or queer"

    This is lunacy. Apparently Shakespeare couldn't write and copied some black person too.

    No wonder that flew under the radar. Didn't fit the narrative.

    That's the goal. To write us out of our own history. BBC has being doing it already. Presenting Royals and other prominent figure heads as Blacks and ancient Britain as multiracial as the present day.

    Its only a matter of time until RTE and like start that here.

    I can't wait until the KKK jerseys go on. BLM is as much of a hate group as the KKK is.

    If somebody does a mass murder - just call him "white", regardless of his race.
    This will be politically correct

    This is disgusting. After all of the videos taken from new york tonight showing police not responding and driving by areas with this kind of activity
