    a fistfight doesn't warrant lethal force either. if someone shot a person to death during what started as a fistfight and wasn't a cop everyone would agree it didn't need to escalate like that.

    You really should take your own advice.

    Spare the 1) flagrant racism and 2) any reference to anything that comes out of the thinkprogress cesspool. May as well cite to buzzfeed or Huffington Post.... or Weekly World News.

    Hey, you talkin to me=) Or is this just a general statement about people? Because you understand the biggest whiners are minorities who claim they can't get work or advance due to supposed systemic racism, when its NOT the color of the skin. Its their character the turns people off. In only VERY specific places in the deep "old" south or midwest will someone literally turn you away for being the "wrong" color. Its on YOU, if you think the white man is holding you back in South FL, or CA, or Atlanta or NYC or DC, ect.

    So then why did you ask the question if you think you already know the answer?

    Fogot the Zimmerman case already did you? A fist swung hard enough can kill you just as dead as a gun.

    The law disagrees. Keep your hands off the police.

    This doesn't make sense. Who is doing the protesting? Aren't they upset? I think the issue is the manner in which these issues are addressed, not the fact they are a certain culture. Look at the riots in '94? and Watts in the sixties. Look at the messes these "peaceful" protestors have created and you may find your answers, but I'm not counting on it. lol

    Yes, certain large groups of whites still have trouble with what they consider 'uppity' blacks.

    I wish these folks would petition the government with their requests like those who actually got change to occur, instead of using violence to make points which are obscure to most and even to many of the protestors. Just doesn't make sense.

    50 or 60 years ago I agreed with and supported black protesters - they had real grievances.

    Now - I don't give a crap about black protesters. What are they protesting? The black communities are rife with all kinds of crime and when the cops do something the criminals in their communities rise up in riot. They never seem to consider what good the cops have done - they never seem to consider what their monolithic democrat voting block has done to them and theirs.

    IMO, the black community refuses to recognize that it's the policies of the Democrats they put in power that are the cause of most of the ills in their communities.

    I agree with Blacks protesting a Democrat President in WW2 for not giving them an equal share of the combat workload in the war as fighters. Only when thousands of whites were being killed did FDR let Blacks take on combat roles.

    So yes or no? Is rewarding people or giving them advantages due to color or gender, racist or bigoted? Simple question and answer. Go.

    And the whiners are those protesting due to their perception instead of reality and statistics. Or blaming thier race or gender on their shortcomings.

    Yes or no. Are you responsible for yourself, Pred? Quit whining about others.

    There has never been anything in history of humankind that everyone agreed on...

    And if the BLM protestes were not based on a LIE, a False Narrative, of Blacks being targeted for death by police... then more people, both black and white, might support the NFL protests today.

    But fact is, if you look at local data, like LEO envolved fatal shootings in Oakland, or Atlanta, or Baltimore... it might APPEAR like the police are being biased...


    BUT!

    The FBI and DOJ both keep very detailed records on such things.. and nationally, when normalized for Racial Crime Rates, and Racial Population Demographics, White-Teens are by Slightly more likely to be envolved in a LEO fatal shooting.


    The Whole BLM claim is just a Racial Goodies, Jessee-Jackson-Type, Fraud Shakedown!


    Americans are rejecting Racial Conn-Job Fraud!
