I can only come to a conclusion that you think IF WHITE PEOPLE ARE TARGETED WHY SHOULD BLACK PEOPLE PROTEST? ARE YOU SAYING IF WHITE PEOPLE TARGETED WHY IS IT A BLACK LIVE MATTER MOVEMENT INSTEAD OF A ALL LIVES MATTER? Well if you asking why is it a black live matter movement, the simple answer to this in MY OPINION is that after many complaints by blacks that police are targeting blacks many people refused to believe. people will say they must deserve what happen to them, the police was using self defense or the most ridiculous one is they cause the injury to themselves. well after the Rodney King beating was broadcast on T.V. people thought that will shed the light on the truth and justice will prevail but as you and I know the officers were acquitted of any wrong doing. Why would blacks believe in JUSTICE FOR ALL after that slap in the face? Then the assaults by pedestrian (STAND YOUR GROUND LAW) was preventing a lot of blacks to be killed are assaulted (TRAYVON MARTIN) now you have a series of events that happening within the year with clear footage of what is happening, so that's started the BLACK LIVES MOVEMENT. Its not to say white people or other don't matter. Its to let people know we are tired of seeing our children, daughters, sons and men being slaughtered with NO JUSTICE NO PEACE
Want to know what happens to a guy like me who chooses to exercise his 'rights' and walk down certain streets in Oakland, CA after dark? Wanna know why I don't? Wanna know the color of the man giving me such very good advice, and why?

Wanna know?
Give a ****?
Bet not.

It's hard to change a man's ethos, and yours needs changing. BLM didn't bring attention to a damn thing. There exists corruption in every corner of every thing on the face of this earth so long as people are involved. You're using color as an excuse, just like Trayvon Martin. Just like Oscar Grant. Just like so many others.

Simply acting right will keep you and your kids out of most trouble, even in the face of corrupt cops. Sure works for me and my kids, and all my black friends and their kids too. Just acting right will do it. That's color blind. Black. White. Orange. Yellow. Yes sir Mr Officer. No sir Mr Officer. You may loathe the Son of a ***** for stopping you, harassing you, writing you a ticket, asking you questions. Whatever. Your experience is no different than mine. Bet.

You appear to be capable only to see only what you've been programmed to see and you're not enlightened enough to get out and take a universal stand - you only see color and you can't even admit it to yourself.

It's like that woman who said she was on the beach with her young daughter when they saw a truck drive down the road with a rebel flag and this woman clutched her child and trembled in fear at the sight. So yeah, her kid is going to grow up fearing a symbol, and she may never truly understand why. That's what I'm talking about, but I'll go ahead and bet the family farm you won't get it.

C'mon Man...
