... "You can come in, now." ...

I had the impression of Imperial storm troopers arresting people of color just cause they were not white. Trump said he knew little about David Duke and the KKK but you can bet your bottom dollar he was lying. He certainly knows about fascism from reading Hitler's books and imitating Benito Mussolini. He admires the iron fist of Vladimir Putin. The people he admires, are mostly rulers of state who had abused the system. It seems like he wants to follow in those footsteps. Making America Great Again sounds like an adoption of some kind of Nazi plan for America. Maybe that's hyperbole, and then again, maybe its not.

Let's finish the sentence, shall we? When we say "Black Lives Matter...", that's not enough. When every next Ignoranus spews "ALL Lives Matter!" we then have the reverse onus to prove that what we said was not wrong.

How about, "Black Lives Should Matter More", or "Black Life is Not Cheap"? Then, if they say "ALL Lives Matter!", that's obvious code for "No, they shouldn't", and "Yes, it Is".

... "Don't murder that black person for no reason."? ...

That "all lives matter" bullshit meme irritates me to no end.

If indeed "all lives mattered" then there wouldn't even BE a BLM movement.

White lives already matter. They have nothing to fear from a regular stop by police. They can walk into any police station and at least expect to be heard and not summarily dismissed if not treated as a criminal by the persons they are seeking help from.

It's a cry for equality and equal treatment under the law and by the law. The unspoken isn't "only" black lives matter. It's Black Lives Matter "too".

And the "All Lives Matter" criers know it too. It's utter bullshit.

It is not "Only Black Lives Matter". Nor is it "Black Lives Matter More". That is because, for hundreds of years and until rather recently, black lives did NOT matter. Lynchings (and whites were lynched for daring to suggest that black lives mattered) have been a family picnic event in this country.

Everyone criticizing the name and saying "All Lives Matter" can go choke on something.

I have nothing against her and her loss is tragic. But it sends the wrong message. The DOJ report showed that the evidence supported the conclusion that Michael Brown was killed in self-defense. He wasn't murdered. Democrats should put the truth before politics.

... soooooo ... I'm sure that the professionals know full well what they're doing ...

... OH! ... that's right ... "All White? No Bite!" ... "All Bank? No "KLANK"! " ...

... "All Money? C'mere, Honey!" ...

... and Mr. Holder got his big, beautiful corner office back ...

Because there was no case. "Hands up Don't Shoot" was complete bullshit. We need to win over independents. Waving around the bloody shirt of Brown will not help that. If you want to put up someone, you need to present an incident where there is no doubt what happened. I am thinking of the fella who got shot in the back while running away and the cop was filmed placing the gun next to him. He has been charged with murder as a result. THAT is where you bring the family to speak.

Ferguson Police Department routinely violated the rights of blacks and that 95% of jaywalking arrests were black.

It never should have escalated to the point it did. Something went tragically wrong there.

Lezley McSpadden should absolutely be there.

The evidence suggests that it escalated to the point it did because Michael Brown twice assaulted Darren Wilson.

was a march where I live yesterday. I wasn't aware of it.

His take on it is that BLM wants no police. Is that what RW nutjobs tell each other? I guess I know the answer to that. Try and reason with assholes and they will exaggerate and oversimplify anything you try and tell them.

I've been on the receiving end of that kind of bullshit. Working at a Budweiser distributor when I was in charge of loading and unloading operations, the bosses son was the one that scheduled, truck maintenance and routine repairs. He wasn't telling me in advance when he had trucks going into he shop and I complained. It was something anyone with a clue would have known they needed to give me a heads-up on. It caused all kinds of problems being blindsided with that with no notice. He told his dad and I end up getting my ass chewed, "we're going to get these trucks fixed whether it's convenient for you or not!" As if I was telling his idiot kid to not get the trucks fixed! I'd still love to corner his kid and slap the shit out of it for that!

Trump doesn't.

Anything less is an insult.
