When asked at the debate whether all lives mattered or only black lives mattered. Bernie Sanders replied, "Black Lives." As the racist sexist hate party I guess I shouldn't be surprised that a democrat is racist but it was still surprising, even for a democrat, that his racism was so blatant.
He learned his lesson and knows if he doesn't say that.... they will come back and beat his ass. He'll say whatever they want him to say.
Let's be fair here. When cops shoot white people, white people seemingly [/b]appear to give the police the benefit of the doubt ~100% of the time. In other words, they never seen to question a killing of another white person by cop. OTOH, our community, in which some parts police are an occupying force, the members gives a slight more damn about the people killed. Hence Black Lives Matter.
Then why don't we pull out that so called "occupying force" and let them have it. Inside a month you'd have reports of cannibalism and head hunting.
Wonder why there isn't rampant cannibalism now, especially in Ferguson where police decided to "slow down." I agree in part. Remove the occupying force, but replace them with non-sociopaths and better policies.
Laughable in every respect. The major cites are already showing the uptick in homicides and to call all police sociopaths takes a toll on anything resembling sanity. But we do agree on one thing. Cordon off the inner city and let them have it. It will makes something like "Escape for New York" turn from a fantasy to a reality.
It is always amusing when some people can't understand symbolic use of language. "black lives matter" isn't a rallying cry for racists, its a rallying cry for anti-racists. It does NOT mean that white lives don't matter. But then again, the white racists are generally too dumb to actually comprehend such, hence their idiotic whinging. It seems they never miss an opportunity to try and rile up the poor oppressed white man regardless. Intellectual Lilliputians.
Did you read the OP? Mr. Sanders apparently believes only black lives matter. Not whinging, a direct quote. Read the materials before posting and you'll look that much smarter.
Ramble all you want but isn't this racist one of yours... ? One of the "dumb" ones who had to apologize for mistakenly pretending "all lives matter". I know it's a CNN link... but this one is true: Democratic presidential candidate Martin O'Malley apologized on Saturday for saying "All lives matter"
When you factor in the cops killing blacks number, the numbers of white on black and black on white, aren't that far apart. Certainly not "far more". https://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/ucr/crime-in-the-u.s/2013/crime-in-the-u.s.-2013/offenses-known-to-law-enforcement/expanded-homicide/expanded_homicide_data_table_6_murder_race_and_sex_of_vicitm_by_race_and_sex_of_offender_2013.xls
Don't know. Not them. I would presume it had to do with the symbolic use of language and the actual intent of the phrase. Nobody in their right mind would reject the notion that all lives matter. In this case, it isn't about all lives. It is a reactionary statement that goes to the notion that if the cops were regularly shooting unarmed white folks, the entire nation (including the right) would be going snaky, demanding something be done. How many more decades of disproportionate killings before some people get the message?
Smarter? this from somebody that apparently can't grasp symbolic use of language? OTOH, I am not surprised as I stated previously that many can't quite grasp this fundamental component of human language communication despite being exposed to it extensively in such diverse areas as religion and marketing for instance.
Bernie Sanders: Only Black Lives Matter Saw where the white students at Dartmouth who were supporting the Black Lives Matter group were told to leave...guess they got their poor whittle pphheelings hurt, huh? Didnt realize that they left off the ONLY from their chantings
The figures don;t bear it out. Given that Blacks shot by police are almost always done so as they are committing a crime then its not really relevant
Your right ! This is a prime example . "If you're a liberal, anything you say is protected. If you're a conservative, anything you say is hateful." Laura Schlessinger
I can grasp statistics so know when adjusting for homicide rate or murder of police officers, blacks are less likely to die by cop than whites.
Apparently Ms. Schlessinger is yet another person who can't quite grasp semantics and logic. that or she isn't aware that hateful speech (that does not directly incited violence) IS PROTECTED. Seems she needs new filters on her spectacles.
http://m.washingtontimes.com/news/2...e-whites-than-blacks-but-minority-d/?page=all I fully expect you to flee now. When someone like you asks for a source in such a flippant manner you usually don't actually care.
did you read the entire article or just the headlines and first couple of paragraphs. Seems you missed the actual conclusion. and here's his blog: http://www.copinthehood.com/ Wanna try for strike three?
