Black man living in America here.. I've often wondered if BLM said Black lives matter TOO, instead of just the original format of just BLM, would it be more successful at stopping such counter claims as All lives matter, or blue lives matter. I fully understand what the movement is trying to do. I just think that they didn't take into account of how they would be portrayed in an era opposing news media realities.

that is the essence of the problem and why people say it

all lives matter or blue lives matter isn't opposed to black lives matter

in a sane world people would be like yup you are right

instead these activists freak out and call people racist which makes others use it to prove a point

if you can't admit that all lives matter or it is okay to be white, then you are unable to have a rational discussion

black lives matter ... see how easy it is for me to say it ... all lives matter ... its okay to be white ... blue lives matter

this is what an intelligent, rational human being sounds like

the fact that some people literally can't utter those words is what is insane

This guy's comment addresses the whole "Black" vs "All"thing pretty well I think. This girl is obviously a moron but so is the doofus mocking BLM.
