Race

Why do you think Drew Brees got far more backlash for his standing for the anthem post?

Remember the endless photos of the tiki torches saying a jew will not replace me.

Apparently Jews, like blacks, only matter to the left when it pushes their cause.

The military’s top officer on Thursday described Confederate leaders as traitors and said he is taking a “hard look” at renaming 10 Army installations that honor them, despite President Trump’s opposition to any changes.

“The Confederacy, the American Civil War was fought, and it was an act of rebellion,” the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Mark A. Milley, told members of the House Armed Services Committee. “It was an act of treason at the time against the Union, against the Stars and Stripes, against the U.S. Constitution, and those officers turned their back on their oath.”

The Army is now about 20 percent black, he said.

“For those young soldiers that go onto a base — a Fort Hood, a Fort Bragg or a fort wherever named after a Confederate general — they can be reminded that that general fought for the institution of slavery that may have enslaved one of their ancestors,” he said.

Not saying it doesn't happen --- but nothing likes this comes to mind involving police and Caucasians
That in a nut shell is BLM

so what you are saying is there was one in the fall of 2014 ?

This is what BLM is talking about
That is all

I am sure there have been others due to drug law over reach, but we can pretty much agree drug laws themselves from day one have been pointed at POC.
Still, nothing comes to mind.
Perhaps in the thread titled "never ending police ..." has something
all the same, nothing comes to mind

One reason is the media doesnt obsess about them like they do other cases.

You know that cops kill more whites than blacks.

you are a bore

[goldfly]

oh, FB went the "whites get shot more" route lol

[Tapate50]

....?

No one has addressed this at all. I guess its complex and difficult to understand, but were those lives not as important or perhaps even more so than George Floyd? Is that too simple a view? Can we not scapegoat an officer for it so its not actionable? No protests?

Is it viewed as excusable because of the current climate? I can't figure it out.

Worth a listen . Pretty much what Is alluded to back a page. BLM movement needs to make sure black lives matter to black people as well.

Shot to death is terrible to look at. Need to just use shot to death while unarmed, and then narrow that down some more bc some of the unarmed were in vehicles driving at officers

Black disabled vet with possession of Medical Marijuana gets 5 years in prison in Alabama, meanwhile Rapist Brock Turner got months in jail.

But there is no such thing as White Privilege.

Would be nice if all the people in the persecution of this black couple were sued into oblivion.

I need some of this so called white privilege in my life. Been white for 35 years and still haven't found it yet.

What does case have to do with race?

You think a white person would have been harassed or searched by a cop over a noise violation in a gas station parking lot? If you do, you're crazy.

Glad this racist got fired. No place for this kind of hatred.

Odd that only the anti Semitic portion of his rant got called out.

There has been a war on white people, specifically white men, for a while now.

Our local hospital just let go of a white nurse who didn't think it was funny three black women were sharing an anti white meme in the break room. They claimed it made her feel like they were worth less and were not valued because she didn't find it funny. It was 3 against 1. An EP lawyer will have a field day with it.
