Double Bonus: The arguments against BLM on this thread are the exact same arguments used by George Wallace in ‘68 during his “Segregation Forever” Tour, and the FBI used against MLK — when they weren’t encouraging his suicide.
Black lives Matter is a thing because in America, Black lives do not matter as much as other lives. The evidence that supports the conclusion is irrefutable. If a child being a smart ass, or volunteers helping disenfranchised people register to voter are killing offenses in your world, well sir, you can stay there. We’re moving on and we will gladly leave you behind.
You realize you're using examples of institutional racism that occurred at a longer time span removed from us longer than Kitty Hawk and the end of the Korean War?
It literally means far less to racism in modern America in all of its forms as the Bataan Death March does to modern US/Japan relations.
