WHAT IF BLACK LIVES REALLY MATTERED?


But the rallies and the protests – not just in Ferguson, but in Baltimore, Cleveland and other places – seem to underscore a major irony. Black lives don’t seem to matter at all until they end up getting killed at the hands of police.

Until that time, even the black community seems to ignore the lives of these young people. The rates of marriage and two-parent headed households among black youths borders on a national tragedy. If black lives really mattered, it seems that instead of making isolated instances of police misconduct the focus of the movement, activists would instead concentrate on implementing actions to improve the state of the black family.


By protesting and disrupting mainstream Democratic candidates – such as the recent breakup of a Bernie Sanders campaign rally in Seattle – the movement is demonstrating that it does not have the organizational sophistication to form strategic alliances that would ultimately beget political power.


If black lives really mattered, so would black behavior. High school dropout rates, incarceration rates and teenage pregnancy rates are factors affecting black lives over which the black community has a great deal of control.

I'd say step one should be, stop making excuses for police brutality.

But they play no roles in their own demise, it's all someone elses fault! Right Rev. Al?

Are little old black ladies being beaten up on the way to the bake sale?

No? Why? Well because they aren't committing crimes probably.

You want a world where the police can kill black people for not being perfect?

That's a bit mental.

Now THIS is an original concept for a thread. Let's hope the GOP leadership takes this message to the people loud and clear!

What message might that be?

What is the message intended by this threads dufus? Why not articulate it for us. Let's see if you have understood it.

I'm not sure, because it's obvious by all the black on black murder in this country that black lives don't matter to blacks. So why should it matter to me? I have a family to raise, maybe I will care when they start caring about their own communities.

Right. That's the message. I hope every GOP candidate gets up on that stage next month and says exactly that. They will begin to care about black lives when black people start caring about their communities. Until black people stop killing other black people........there is no reason to evaluate the criminal justice system in America.

That's a winning strategy.

This is a problem democrats created, so you should fix it.

Progressives created it and there are plenty of R progressives.

Your kind doesn't worry about the lives of *******, unless the move in down the street.

I have a black family living next door. We're good friends. They are very family oriented and the children are doing well in school. The father is a vp and all the children will be going to college. It's a given just as for my son it was a given. Black families can do it if they stay in school and wait to have children.

There are plenty of people trying to change their neighborhoods. But drugs and gangs are not fought and won by individuals.

Of course they are. It called grass roots, family values and accountability. That's where it starts.

It will resonate with every group except black thugs, who I don't see rushing to the polls.

I'd like a world where people regarded other people as mattering. Not just blacks, not just whites, everyone practiced the Golden Rule. Until that time, allow cops to do their job and any that don't do it right, get rid of.

Of course they are. It called grass roots, family values and accountability. That's where it starts.

And where it finishes too. Often not getting very far. You don't solve such problems in a small way.

People need to demand this FRINGE group of BLM be brought under control. Just like there is a thread on the Westboro Baptist church and how people want them under control of some sort. these BLM are going around causing Mayhem, instigating riots and lootings and causing Innocent lives be put in danger and property DESTROYED.
they are being FUNDED by Al Sharpton and his Backers, one is the Dnc's Billionaire George Soros. If they don't then DON'T vote for this crap again by voting for the Democrat party

Poll: 2 Out of 3 Blacks Prefer 'All Lives Matter'
This won't please the race baiters.

News

reports The Hill.

Only 31 percent of black people surveyed said that “black lives matter” most closely comports to their own beliefs, compared to 64 percent who chose “all lives matter.”

Seventy-eight percent of total respondents also chose “all lives matter,” including 81 percent of white and 76 percent of minority respondents, according to the poll.

Black Lives Matter co-founder Julius Jones told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer Tuesday that the notion that "all lives matter” is a “violent statement”:
