Is black lives matter necessary?

The FA is causing police to pull back and be more reactive, THUS immobilizing them in certain areas that they feel don't want them. Which is going to cost a lot of black lives, because there will be more lawlessness and more black gang warfare. What's not to get?

Black Americans have it much better than they did in 1860 and 1960, yet they still don't have the same opportunity as white Americans in 2016. They are still being killed by police in questionable circumstances disproportionally.

The issues still need work. Black Lives Matter, is working for more justice in that regard. I have a problem with the name in that it gives the Alt Right an argument that they are being reverse-racists. I don't have a problem with what I know about their work.

Really Jerod? Can a white person get into UofM with a 2.0? Fuck no. Can a black person? You bet!

They get extra black privileges whites don't have.

I wouldn't mind if they were JUST bringing attention to police shootings, but they are taking it too far. They encourage attacks against LE, and demanding reparations??? Further they seem to be a black supremacist org like black panthers or nation of islam.

Go to Charlotte with Darth and tsuke and let BLM know how you feel.

so there has been a massive improvement? :) why would blacks be angry enough to start blm now though? If they are better off than ever then they should see the improvement?

Good questions. Instead of asking a white attorney on a message board, take Darth and Irish to Charlotte with you and ask around. :)

Apart from calling attention to bad cops [whilst turning a willful blind eye to black crime statistics] BLM is just another radical left group, which happens to be black.

So, predictably, they label Israel an 'apartheid state'.

Do you agree with that?

I have not seen where "they" did that.

George W. Bush got into Yale but was rejected from Texas A&M, why do you think that was?

I bet a white person with a 2.0 who has a wealthy powerful father because he inherited a shitload from slaveholders can get into a much better school than U of M.

Improvement is great, they have a right to demand equal treatment under the law. I would demand it also. They did not get the improvement without demanding it.

Don't you think tsuke should be asking his excellent questions in Charlotte instead of on an all-white message board?

Because race is over rated and it has more to do with class and economic status?

You don't really think the Obama girls would be rejected anywhere, right?
