All lifes matter, and blacks aren't exclusive to the discrimination. Fuck off. The words, 'All Lives Matter', are 99.99% spoken by white Americans who grew up in nice neighborhoods with a picket fence and a nice functional home. My wife, used to say 'All Lives Matter'. The difference? Is there is no race of people here in America that have had it worse over our history that the Black community. It's not about White people, Asians, or anything else, it's about the crimes that are consistently raged against the Black community. I live in the home of the civil right movement, and grew up in a predominately black neighborhood, so in some regards, I was able to grow up and witness the appalling discrimination when a house would get broken into or any other petty crime gets committed, but do I get questioned? No, but all my black friends did, and multiple times. My wife grew up very privileged and had no idea about any of this, but the video of George Floyd's murder opened her eyes and now she is doing her part in the cause. The violence is deplorable in these protests, and are typically done my anarchists and people not even from the city that they are protesting in...But this issue IS about the Black Community and to pretend it's anything else proves that you are part of the problem. #BLM

Mpache Posted June 3, 2020 Posted June 3, 2020 Just as more proof that racism isn't the same everywhere: white people in Peru get targeted by the police for corruption and bribery. My parents have been subject to that abuse before, and not just in Peru but in Mexico as well. They have privilege in the USA but in other countries it's not the same story. Hence why I think the riots outside of the USA should be adjacent to the US embassies or a show of solidarity. Not getting violent like in Montreal.

Don't need to in all honestly because I know you how talk about current events. The simple fact that you mention 'All Lives Matter', despite the rest of what you may or may not have said, just goes to prove that you don't get it. Watch Stan's video, it's spot on.

Cicero Posted June 3, 2020 Posted June 3, 2020 As predicted, this will only continue the racial divide in America until police reform happens once and for all.

Watch Stan's video, it's spot on. I clearly said that I understand why it’s exclusively protests for black people given the history of it in the USA but that the violence is going to affect everyone in the country Just proves that you can’t gather a single point in one post. If that’s the only post you’re going to read, I recommend you put me on ignore instead having a go at the little things. It will do you a world of good.

But I didn't disagree with you there...not once. And I swear you make me laugh speaking about this ignore button which many times we have begged you to use on whichever user you are feuding with at the moment. (it has been a few).

Then why did you tell me to fuck off if you’re not even going to read the rest of it? You clearly disagreed and you’re denying it now. Hilarious. Just for the record I have someone on ignore at the moment (Tommy) and I don’t plan on taking him off anytime soon which is helping lots.
