I know as well as you all, that it is not a black-white thing.
But to hear from some of the BLM people, one would beg to differ.
And when reading some of the comments underneath various articles, I am like WTH? How do you come up with that way of thinking?
Such as the black woman from the other shooting who told the blacks not to loot black businesses, but rather go into white suburbia.
Or yanking white folks from their cars as they try to pass.
That is a black-white problem.
Many blacks feel like they are being targeted by cops due to their skin color.
Which I assume is why some want to retaliate against whites when they feel angry.
Absurd way of thinking in my book, but that is just the way it is.
It is definitely a black folks-cop thing for sure.
And as long as the BLM and the media keep bringing race into the issue, it will be about skin color regardless.
Not all, but many blacks keep referring to "had he not been black, he'd still be alive".
Not just on this tragic incident, but on ones from the past.
And deep down, that is how many feel about it.
Hence the resentment towards white folks.
Also, I had to turn the channel due to what I was hearing, how ignorant the comments were.
But a few weeks ago, Megan Kelly had a panel of people she was talking to.
2 people there were from the BLM.
The black dude said, that the Flint water contamination fiasco was designed to kill black folks.
Yes....in his mind, he really thinks that, despite what the people told them.
The black chick said that the only way to resolve the black-cop issue was to do away with the police force.
Which that definitely earned a round of moans, gasps, and 'are you kidding' remarks.
The point is.....
Many black people's way of thinking is unlike ours, because we are white.
Where we see this as a complex difficult situation that has nothing to do with skin color.....they see it as an attack on blacks. Period.
It doesn't matter if the cop was black either. He is their enemy in their eyes.
Not all blacks feel that way mind you.
But some of those who feel passionate about it do.
