For all the BLM sympathizers: This is proof that not All Black Lives Matter. Please slogan it for what it really is Black Lives Matter Too When It Is On the Side We Agree With or Politically Advantageous.
Guys lets face it if All Black Lives really mattered and if the media spin is true that the riots are just people getting out their pent up rage then why isn't Chicago just a burnt down wasteland? If all Black Lives Mattered Chicago, Baltimore, Brooklyn, The Bronx, Atlanta, Oakland, LA, DC and Detroit would have all burnt a long time ago.
Black on Black crime, failed policies by previous administrations and the black community itself have held the black community back not racist cops. Are there racist cops out there? Yes but their impact is very minimal on their community vs. the other 3 factors I described earlier.
It's amazing how I always here when this kind of crap happens that we (geared mostly towards the white community) need to start having the hard conversations as to how we can deal with our racism. This is such a smokescreen hiding the true problems that plague the black community and kill so many young blacks across the nation every year. I am hearing about these hard conversations that we need to be having but anytime you bring up the hard conversations that folks need to be having in the black neighborhoods such as fighting fatherless homes and they shut down. Look at RG3 and how criticized he was for not being black enough. The community itself is it's own worst enemy and does not want to face the hard conversations it needs to face to fix itself.
But no everyone else needs to fix themselves to accommodate the black community. Is there opportunity for this? Absolutely we can get better but even if you eliminated racism and we completely eradicated racism by police the black community is still going to suffer because they are failing to face their own dang issues.
