| One does wonder why the fact that in the US twenty times as many blacks murder whites as the other way round is ignored by BLM, and the media. |
BLM deals with the perception that Blacks are more likely to be killed in police custody. I t is limited in scope of cause which has caused a great deal of animosity with those who fly the "All Lifes Matter" banner. I cant remember the comedic act but it dealt with a patrol stop from the police I believe it was along the lines of "I am reaching for my wallet now", and the ole' I was pulled over for driving while black. I can tell you a lot of folk I know in NOLA think that BLM is racist. I really don't know as I am not invested enough.....but I do know some supporters for BLM and don't think they are racist.
When I read that study, I thought of Eric Gardner, a fat streetwalking singles slinger who was arrested for a tax violation and ... died... no violence, arrested for what should be a ticket issued and passed away on the sidewall. Roulette of law really worked in his favor.
it is not hard to see the aim of BLM. |

Of course you don't, because you are clueless about South Africa. Here's a hint: It rhymes with a certain 'k' word. |
This is just getting ridiculous. Now a word is offensive and racist because it RHYMES with racial slur?
You can't be serious.

And why do you think that is? Perhaps you could tell us why "no-one[sic] wants to send their children to South Africa." I am sure it has nothing to do with black people, or the crime committed by black people, so what is it? |
Probably all those whiny racists, who don't know how words work. |
