What will make BLM happy?

[LeftofLeft]

Statistics show more whites and Hispanics are shot by police than blacks. BLM is telling everyone only certain lives matter. If you respond with " all lives matter", you might as well spit in their face.

What will make them happy?

Comes a point where you don't care what makes them happy. I myself am at that point.

BLM is becoming an annoyance, they have no platform or goals they are just inciting hate and violence. America will grow weary of the antics

It's a fair question: Will it take a law of some kind, a series of laws, some kind of public admission or apology, constitutional amendment?

Maybe we'll get some answers here.

Statistically you far more likely to be shot by police if you are balck rather than white...

Saying that the US police kill their citizens at a far higher rate than any other first world country... That is black or white...

By the numbers: US police kill more in days than other countries do in years

More benefits. More sympathy. Less responsibility. Less individual effort. Less focus on their contribution to the problem.

All of the whites dying would be a good start for them.

Huh? There are already laws against murder. If a cop does murder someone they can use that law. An amendment? God only knows what you'd conjure up.

Plus money. Lots of money. Reparations money even if nobody in their history was a slave.

If the government made all black people rich and the police stopped arresting and killing blacks, you better believe black lives matters would still be complaining.

Nothing. The point is not to fix any problems, it is to keep funds flowing to the Racism Industrial Complex.

You can't help anyone that is unwilling or unable to help themselves.

Interesting how statistics can mislead. The poor have more interactions with police then the non poor. Creating a child that you have no intention of raising properly or supporting financially makes it far more likely that the child will be poor.

Until certain communities OWN this, no law will change anything.

 

[my2¢]

BLM will suffer an uneventful death as the media tunes them out. We won't be hearing a thing about BLM a year from now unless these killings of blacks continue during routine stops for non-violent crime.

Cop cams. So that everything is recorded and not subject to speculation. It's simple: the bar for indicting a cop for a wrongful death/shooting is very high, in all states. They wield a lot of power in situations that have no real-time oversight. So if the individual states want to grant these individuals that kind of power without accountability, then cop cameras have to be worn and turned on at the same time a cop arrives at the scene and left on until the scene is resolved in either a release of the suspect or an arrest.

And whatever happened to tasers? Why the hell aren't cops using these instead of bullets?

Statistically black thugs are far more likely to challenge a police officer and resist by saying fuck the police like NWA-NIGGGERS WITH ATTITUDES.

So I looked around a bit:

What Does the Black Lives Matter Movement Really Want?
“They could certainly benefit from some organizing and coming up with a 10-point platform on what we want,” says Lecia Brooks, outreach coordinator for the Southern Poverty Law Center. “I would say that’s definitely part of the growing pains” of a movement that’s less than five years old.

At the same time, “I think it’s also part of the hesitancy millennials have with the traditional way of doing things,” adds Brooks, who’s active in #BlackLivesMatter protests in Birmingham, Alabama, noting the movement principally consists of young people. “To their detriment, they lose ground in not wanting to follow a traditional pattern or path that has been blazed before.”

Here's What Black Lives Matter Activists Want Politicians To Do About Police Violence

Oprah says protesters lack clear demands. Here’s what they do want.
1. Bodycams and dashcams.
Activists, including the parents of Michael Brown, the unarmed 18-year-old killed by police in Ferguson, Mo., have demanded that police be equipped with tiny cameras to wear on their uniforms and cars to record their interactions with citizens. They’ve partially won this battle. President Obama pledged more money to police departments for the devices, and the Ferguson police have started using them in the wake of Brown’s killing. Look for more states to consider bills to equip their local departments this spring.

2. Special prosecutors.
In Missouri, officials all the way up to Gov. Jay Nixon (D) were criticized for allowing the St. Louis County prosecutor Robert P. McCulloch to lead the investigation into Brown’s killing. The concern was not only that McCulloch’s father, a police officer, was killed by a black man in the line of duty, but that he has a close relationship — as do most prosecutors — with law enforcement. McCulloch (D) and his supporters countered that his past was not an impediment to his impartiality, noting his 25 years of service in that office. Protest groups in Ferguson and New York have asked that special prosecutors be installed to investigate all instances of use of force by police.

3. Training for police.
Protest groups say police should be better trained on ways to de-escalate situations without resorting to deadly force.

4. Civilian Review Boards.
Particularly in Missouri, groups have asked for these bodies, which are basically citizen panels that do their own investigations and oversight of police-involved shootings. Communities around the country have these, with varying degrees of power. The groups in Missouri are asking for a powerful one that has the ability to subpoena witnesses.

5. Changes to city budget formulas.
A big issue that arose after the heated demonstrations in the wake of Brown’s killing was the reliance of many Missouri local governments on parking and traffic tickets for their revenue. Some communities draw as much as 30 percent of their revenue from these sources. The problem, critics say, is that it has created an incentive for communities to come down hard on traffic scofflaws, and that the offenders who are forced to pony up these fines — often to avoid jail time for failing to pay their tickets — are disproportionately poor black people. There is broad concern over these practices, and a Republican senator in Missouri has introduced a bill that would dramatically cut the percentage of a city or town’s operating budget that could come from traffic fines.
