You legitimately just said that misbehaving high and drunk suspects should be shot lol
I did, where?
(Sorry if I have to explain: A drunk, high and/or armed suspect are obviously more dangerous to a law enforcement officer)

Blue lives don't exist. Equating a job to the color of your skin is laughable.
Blue has to do with the color of the uniform..Why do I have to explain this..

Oh yeah and while we're at it, your corny blue stripe American flags are explicitly against the flag code.
Sorry, don’t have any blue stripe American flags, you are barking up the wrong tree.

Not sure what planet you are from, but common sense seems to be lacking there.
Good luck and go easy on the crack pipe.

Okay, so in the perfect world deadly violence is not needed. But in our imperfect world, it's not needed unless they are apprehending a suspect that "behaves" and "are not drunk, high on drugs and/or armed. So you're saying that if they are any of those things....... I'm sorry you don't understand what you said, but it's actually what you said.

Thanks for making my point. It's the color of their uniform, not their skin. You're equating their job to someones skin color. Good question, it is indeed weird I have to lay out what you just said.

Well that comment is neither germane nor responsive, but I appreciate the softball. Speeding doesn’t get you killed by police if you are white. Bonus: The white lady who lied about Emmitt Till “getting fresh” with her still lives in Mississippi today. She faced no consequences for getting a child murdered.
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.

The irrefutable evidence shows that a cop is more far more likely to be shot by a black man, than a black man is to be shot by a cop. The determining factor in police violence isn’t race, it is how the individual conducts themselves when confronted with the law. If an individual is stopped by the police for anything from a speeding ticket, to questioning or detention for a major crime, how they behave determines how things turn out, not skin pigmentation. If you cooperate and play yes sir, no sir, there will be no problems. If you attack, resist, or flee, the results will be much different. The overwhelming majority of people, all people, shot by the police were acting in a manner that will always get you shot. Michael Brown in Ferguson is a prime example. He wasn’t walking out of Sunday services and senselessly gunned down by racist, hate filled police. He was a criminal who was being stopped after robbing a convenience store. “Hands up, don’t shoot“ never happened. When he was stopped by the police he became combative, struck an officer, and was trying to get to his weapon. I don’t care what you look like, being that stupid will get you shot. The narrative that police are targeting blacks, that black lives don’t matter, is just not true. Law abiding black people who don’t act like a fool when confronted by police have nothing to fear. Criminals (of any color) who attack, pull a gun, resist, or flee will likely see a more violent outcome. There are a few bad apples in the police department and they need to be severely dealt with, but the vast majority of police brutality or shootings is a result of stupid behavior by the person being questioned, not skin color.

Isn’t the only other piece of flair permitted on uniform a pink breast cancer awareness ribbon? So, you’re tellin me AAL thinks BLM’s marxist agenda ranks up there with the fight to end CANCER??! Absurd. Unless you take it as BLM=cancer. Then I can get on board with that.

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.

America normalized relations with Japan. America is still at war with some of its own citizens.

FBI statistics for 2018 (latest available):
Black on white murder: 514
White on black murder: 234

...previous years have similar numbers.

The charge of racism is overdone, and political. Call a man racist for opposing bussing of black kids, then act like it never happened when you can benefit politically, seems to ring a bell.
