False. We live in a world completely driven by tv and social media. They could get noticed any number of ways. They are getting noticed now, you're right about that, but the response has been overwhelmingly negative. They're actually hurting their already misguided cause. At this point I have completely written off anything these guys do to bring "awareness" to their "cause." Its a hollow sham of a cause to begin with, filled with half truths that are further distorted to fit an agenda. When it comes down to it, the biggest thing holding anyone down is themselves and how they choose to live their lives. And the biggest outside factor holding black folks down today is the democratic party and their own so called black leadership. Who, for decades now have been filling the minds of black people with the idea that you can't get by based on your merit. You need a hand out, you need special treatment because you're not equal. F*** that dude, we're not living in civil war era America, nor in a segregated America. That s**t is in the past, just leave it there and let it die. But the democratic party and the black leadership refuses to simply let the wounds heal and the scars fade. They've been picking the scab off for years and applying new salt to the wound. They've kept black people under their thumbs as a political tool for all these years. They don't care about you, they don't have your best interest at heart, they ARE your modern oppressors. You had a half black Democrat president for 8 years, wtf did he do for black people? F***in nothing. I'm not trying to say the Republican party is perfect or anything. Indeed, the older I get the more I realize that our entire political system is corrupt and rotting from the inside out. But it's not the Republican party, or the cops, or white people in general who are trying to keep black folks down anymore. That ended decades ago, as it should have. Your precious left and your so called leaders have taken up the cause, and you're blind to it. I hope and I pray that one day black peoples eyes will be opened to who their oppressors actually are. Until then I will continue to ignore these protests as the misdirected and misguided garbage they are.
