    Black Lives Matter? (BLM)

    So, this is a serious question.

    I was wondering, if anybody new information about what this organization has done, positivity wise, for
    Black people in America?

    Or African Americans, in America?

    I know that there is several negative things that they've done for race relations in America, such as divide us even more, and give African(Black) Americans a bad name so to speak.

    I personally, believe that bad rap should be thrown back onto Democrat Politicians, because most of the blacks in America are good people, but simply used as less than pawns, for their Agenda.

    Blacks in America, tend to get all of the negativity that comes from Democrat Politicians Acvist groups, whilst Democrat Politicians, never seem to take any of the blame.

    Why is that? and why would they do that to African Americans?


    I guess, Black Lives really don't matter. Not to democrat Politicians, anyways.

    I think the organization has enriched some Black Americans.


    The IRS may be correcting that however.

    Black Lives Matter will become more and more irrelevant as time goes on. It’s demise will be mourned by the extreme right particularly by Trumpites. BLM became a favorite group to try and link the Democrats to. Funny that you are now saying that the Democratic Party is ignoring BLM. Who are you going to be crying for next the pitiably stupid jerkoffs who can up with the moronic ideas of “defund the police”. I am a registered Republican but I blame the Democratic Party for real sins not made up schiest.

    May be true that Some Black “ leaders “ were enriched with donations given to BLM but the IRS is not the entity to do that. We need to investigate and punish FP Trump for asking for donations for legal defense but using the funds for apparently himself.

    Well yes of course because every single topic on this forum is always and will forever be about Trump. He is the Alpha and Omega.

    I think Black Lives Matter got their message across very well, that Black lives matter as much as anyone else's and police should not be acting as executioners. Changes in police procedures and accountability have taken place because of the protests, that many white people joined, which will, in the long run help race relations and increase the Black communities trust in law enforcement.
    And then you go on about the Democratic Politicians and the Blacks are "used as less than pawns agenda". So, in other words you think the 90% of Blacks who vote Democrat are ignorant simpletons and the 25% of Democrat Congressmen who are Black are useful tools, tells me how much you respect the Black race.

    Accomplishing higher crime rates especially in predominately black neighborhoods. Increased the number of dead black men killed by other black men. I dont see any improvement in race relations or black communities trust in the Police and only see the opposite.

    AND the # of police officers shot in the line of duty has more than doubled since 2020. These are the accomplishments of Black Lives Matter.

    Perhaps you have tunnel vision. Many new procedures have been put in place by police departments and higher professional standards are expected. The Black communities trust will have to be earned over time, not over night. Your whataboutism Black on Black crime is a separate issue not the focus of BLM protest.

    That is a false statement.

    Black on black crime is the consequence of BLM and or the police acting unprofessionally? You lost a lot of your credibility exaggerating police officers being shot and now you add this absurdity?

    And this message is brought to you by a follower of the party that says that it is very difficult for black people to get ID in order to vote.....

    No, the increase in murders of blacks on blacks is the result of claiming police are all racist, leading to defunding of police departments, officers quitting and retiring, less police enforcement in high crime black areas because of staff shortages and reluctance to aggressively enforce criminal laws in black areas to avoid more accusations of racism. BLM lead to scrapping cash bail because it
    disproportionately impacts blacks, less prosecution for shoplifting because it disproportionately impacts blacks. Crime and mayhem ensue in response, and we have more blacks killed by other blacks.

    Thirty-four officers were shot while on duty in Jan. 2023, a 113% increase from this time in 2020, the National Fraternal Order of Police reported on Monday.

    :police: ~ We soon will not have to worry about police officers — there may not be many left .
    More early retirement. Less applicants . Government defunding. Lack of support by city officials. Lack of respect from citizens. News media slander.
    Nobody in their right mind would want to be a police officer today in the USA ...
    :boo:~ You're not doing any better with credibility ...

    Choosing one month out of the last 25 to claim police shootings have doubled since 2020 is disingenuous and not particularly truthful.

    Crime overall is down per the FBI, but what’s up is gun crime since the early teens. There is an ongoing arms race. The good, bad and ugly have been arming themselves for “protection” and the way gun laws are, anyone can obtain a weapon and all the ammo they can afford. Police arrive after the gun fire to clean up the mess.

    You can’t blame everything on BLM. A small left minority suggested “defund the police” that the right picked up and has repeated continuously as if its a thing. It’s not happening. Some want to abolish prisons. There are bad ideas on both sides.

    I have and had family members in law enforcement and the one still alive has been embarrassed and disgusted by some of the behavior of his peers and they need to hand in their badges. If they don’t like the new rules they can leave too.

    The Black community lost the trust and the respect for law enforcement a long time ago and law enforcement will have to earn it back.

    nonesense.

    The police dgaf about black on black violence. They are like your regular aggressive white person, why on earth would they want blacks to stop killing eachother?

    Ask yourself that. They'd be out of a job otherwise so no, cops actively encourage drug crimes. They're most likely taking a big payoff from the some Crip OG to do nothing. They're being bribed most likely. That's how crime works.

    Stick to subjects you know a thing or two about because this here is clearly alien territory to you. You've likely never been involved in any of these crime situations

    "Doubled" isnt my word but instead the media's word repeated at many sources. What is "disingenuous and not particularly truthful."
    is you proclaiming my and the medias assertions regarding "shootings" to be false, with statistics regarding "deaths" resulting from shootings. I didnt make any assertions regarding deaths of police.

    I said -
    " I dont see any improvement in race relations or black communities trust in the Police and only see the opposite."

    You havent presented anything to show either has improved. BLM was born in 2013

    You stated the reason for black on black violence is lack of policing due to bobbies on the beat reduction. That is the nonesense. Bobbies on the beat never solved black on black crime in the past, you're subscribing to a misnomer
