Just a reminder that they tried to fine Demario Davis for wearing a Man or God headband.

It needs to be renamed Ex-con lives matter! People who obey the law don't normally get into confrontations with police.

You make a good point. Nonetheless, it's mostly the uncooperative people who get shot. I know that black people are taught to fear the police. They do go to jail more often than whites do. Of course the education factor is much lower for blacks and therefore this can lead to theft from lack of an income.

If the black people want to go to college for free then I'm down with that. It's not my job to lift them up but I'm happy to give them the education so that they can achieve success on their own. Feed a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you've fed him for a life time.

Black music is a horrible influence on young people. Raping and killing are common themes in their music. They need to stop using the N word if I do. Once again, I feel like they live by a double standard.

None of this has anything to do with police brutality. So it's just a distraction from the issue at hand.

Point me to one thing and I'll go back to being quiet. Show me one instance where police shot an unarmed white guy in the back (Walter Scott, South Carolina, 2015), or choked to death pleading "I can't breathe" (Eric Garner, 2014), or a white child playing in a park gunned down by police (Tamir Rice, 2014), or a white woman gunned down by police in her own home while asleep (Brionna Taylor, 2020), or a white guy gunned down at a traffic stop while trying to explain possession of a legal firearm in the car (Philando Castille, 2016). Or an unarmed naked man being gunned down (Anthony Hill, Air Force Vet, 2015). I'll wait...

It's exactly the "must be an ex-con" or "they say the n-word to one another" or "that music" or whatever cultual reference that makes Black people "the other" that is the trigger for such brutality and death. Presuming guilt, performing the execution, then blaming the victim. This is a cycle that needs to stop.

I recently read an article that black Americans are moving to other countries. My only question is how quickly can we accommodate the exodus? Get rid of them and bring in the Africans and caribean black people.

Yes, those people are a lot more respectable and well-mannered too. Also, they are smart.

Yes. Because all cops are like that. All white people are racist and all black people are oppressed. All Asians are good with computers and/or know martial arts. And as for the Dallas Cowboys wanting to put the names of the five cops that were shot dead on their helmets? No way. Not on your life! NFL must be uniform and it can't change. You and those like you are the reason racism will persist. You don't think for yourself, but just follow what is deemed to be acceptable. Are there bad cops? Yes. Are there racist people? Absolutely. But here is the rub; people are allowed to be racist but are NOT entitled to use that against anyone to harm them or discriminate when it comes to employment.
Take this little piece of advice or don't, it matters little to me...
Try and think for yourself, do your research and don't accuse people of the very thing that you are doing, which is judging a group of people based on the actions of a few individuals.
