[England] The BLM Import.

[gordi]

I saw this on (BBC) TV this morning and just felt my Blood Pressure rising.... and RISING!

The pandering, simpering, tone of "hurt" surrounding the reporting and multiple interviews (from ONLY ONE POV btw) was absolutely sickening to me. I couldn't watch it after 5mins.
I got the distinct impression that everyone connected with Burnley Football Club were TERRIFIED of any backlash which might be aimed at them for "allowing" this horror to have happened.

These movements do NOT want equality IMHO.
They are NOT aiming for equality.
IF they wanted true equality, their slogan would read:
"BLACK LIVES MATTER TOO" which is NOT exclusive of other races.

TRUE Equality means that I CAN say WHITE LIVES MATTER, RED LIVES MATTER, YELLOW LIVES MATTER, INDETERMINATE SHADES OF PINK & BROWN LIVES MATTER and NOT be accused of being a racist for saying it.

BLACK LIVES DO MATTER.... TOO!

A white Egg, a tan egg and a brown egg are all "just eggs" under the shell.
All equal, all on parity, all just as tasty and nutritious... and they all matter EQUALLY and have EQUAL VALUE because they're all just the same!

POSITIVE Discrimination IS STILL DISCRIMINATION in my book and that is NOT EQUALITY or Parity.

We will only be truly equal when colour doesn't even matter at all to anyone any more..... until then.... the media "stir their master's pot" to keep us all angry at one another...

I'm NOT angry at BLM (or the guys who flew the WLM plane over Burnley for that matter) - I'm Mad as Hell at those pulling the strings which pit us all against one another instead of AGAINST THEM!!
