Why go towards the sounds of gunshots and someone yelling at you to stay away.

You’ve basically been wrong the entire thread. Starting with BLM which in itself was started with a lie “hand up don’t shoot” remember that lie? The one that the BLM used nonstop. Only after some truthful witnesses saw him face punching that cop while simultaneously attempting to steal his firearm.

You were also given crime stats which are easy to look up.

What’s funny to me is that with all the BLM, apparently BLM only cared when White cops would kill a black person.

Another BLM talking point was the officers who were tried AND convicted of choking out that poor fella who was just trying to earn a buck on the street high off his ass who was (if I remember correctly) out on bail for stabbing his pregnant GF? I might have some details fuzzy since I can’t keep track completely.

Or are we referring to the third instance of BLM mania where the dude was shot and paralyzed while at his GF house with a weapon (as a felon) while he had a man active restraining order against him? The place where she called police to help but when police get there all the sudden they targeting black men?

I can’t keep track of all these damn white cops killing innocent black men.

What I fail to see from you, as well as countless others seemingly glossing over the numbers and stats of Black folks killing black folks in alarming numbers. Yet no marches, no protests, no riots.

Why does it only outrage BLM when it’s a White person?

I just can’t wrap my head around that.

Sure, I'll concede that some of the BLM claims might either have been bogus or exaggerated. Doesn't change the outcome: to hold police accountable for summary executions by having them outfitted with bodycams. That's a benefit for EVERYONE, of ANY race.

You were also given crime stats which are easy to look up.

I already addressed why there is a stat for every point of view. You pull out stats that say blacks are so violent, I could pull out stats that say that whites have killed the most people over the course of recorded history, and where would that get us?

Also consider that while it may be true that blacks are responsible for the majority of crime OVERALL, that doesn't mean that that number is spread equally over the entire surveyed population. There might be higher incidence of black crime in urban areas, while other areas might have higher incidence of crime from people of other races.
There are a TON of variables that have to be considered when citing statistics, which is why I choose not to implement them and just stick with basic logic and reason.

And EVEN if you were 100% correct, it doesn't mean you suddenly get the right to profile or discriminate against an individual because they belong to a certain race.

What’s funny to me is that with all the BLM, apparently BLM only cared when White cops would kill a black person.

No, you're just mad because black people noticed a problem within law enforcement and appropriated the movement for change. You're mad because it's Black Lives Matter instead of All Lives Matter, even though the end result was a benefit for EVERYONE.

Already addressed this at the outset.

Clearly, your main concern is looking for those needle in a haystack cases where it turns out that police had a very good reason to shoot a black suspect. You're not going to investigate whether there are genuine cases because that don't suit your narrative.

The bottom line is that every suspect is considered innocent until proven guilty, and deadly force should not even be among the first three options unless there is an imminent threat to police or the public, not just if someone turns and flees.

What I fail to see from you, as well as countless others seemingly glossing over the numbers and stats of Black folks killing black folks in alarming numbers. Yet no marches, no protests, no riots.

This movement only addressed killings by law enforcement, who are held to a higher standard than the average civilian. A police force with itchy trigger fingers is not much of a police force, it's a death squad.

Why does it only outrage BLM when it’s a White person?

I just can’t wrap my head around that.

It becomes quite easy to understand once you review African-American history, but the good news is that BLM is just one of the last few bumps along the road to complete equality. Once we address these last few issues and get everyone on the same level, black people will no longer be able to use the "but I'm black" defense.

This was demonstrated most efficiently in the Darrell Brooks trial, where the defendant tried every trick in the book to delay the proceedings and aggravate the court with his outrageous conduct, but he was treated like royalty until the conclusion of that trial when he was found guilty. He has absolutely NO chance at an appeal on the grounds of race because he was treated fairly the entire time.

Similarly, requiring police to deal with all suspects in a fair manner lessens their ability to use that in court as a defense or to stir up controversy.

So that's incorrect. People have their own drugs. They supply a clean place to inject (clean syringes, nurses on site) so that drug users don't do it in the streets.

Even if that was the case, they learned from the best, didn't they?

Ironic that you're complaining now that the shoe is on the other foot, and it's not even on the other foot because you still have the rights you've had since this country was established.

whites have the Lifetime channel
blacks have B.E.T, could you imagine if whites had
W.E.T.....

First of all, what the fuck are you even complaining about? Blacks have a handful of dedicated channels, you have HUNDREDS of channels that cater to white issues, white interests, white fiction. Nowadays you also have Asian network television, Indian network television, even Pacific Islander network television that cater to those demographics. There are channels dedicated to Spanish speakers in the US, are you gonna complain about those too?

Second of all, not all blacks tune in to BET. Some of them enjoy Lifetime just as much as you do.

i could care less...why would you think im complaining??

By the fact that your comment made black people out to be the ultimate bad guys. I'm not saying they are perfect either, but that doesn't mean they set out to create a channel just to spite white people. They created it to cater to their own demographic.
