That is a noble cause. But I (and many others) dont get that from their message. What we get is hatred particularly for whites and police. What I see and hear is the same "blame whitey" game.
Three Dallas police officers deceased along with seven wounded tonight during protest

What is not clear by BLM and cop haters is that: Is it American whites? All Whites? White cops? All cops?
Depending who is front of a mic or tweeting, you get different answers.
Let's bring it home and have you explain why Sammy Yatim had to die, shall we?
Apparently some blacks feel that they are being killed for being poor and black . Surely you didn't think these videos could continue to appear showing largely innocent blacks being offed without consequence without a violent response. I was surprised it took this long. There is a race war in a country that has been founded on racism and never completely dealt with it. Pointing fingers and choosing sides is just an escalation. Where are the peacemakers? Otherwise, fasten your seatbelts. It's gonna get crazy.
I doubt the Koreans will ever surrender their right to bear arms. During the 1992 riots, Korean stores were the target of black arsonists and looters. The police were nowhere to be found. Finally, the Koreans went to the rooftops of their stores armed with their long guns. If worse comes to worse (hope not), the Koreans will once again take to their rooftops to protect their homes and businesses.

Obviously there are cops who make bad decisions, majority of cops are good.
Generally speaking, you can't reason or evaluate a situation with your conscious when fractions of a second can make a difference between life and death. I think for this immediate type of reaction sometimes they need to rely on their instincts, reflexes and training.
Now what is the appropriate training. Best approach is through research, experience and long term studies to create a systematic approach.
Majority of the cops do a good job. There are a few bad ones in every part of our society. However we need to ensure that they are properly supported and trained to make quick and appropriate decisions even if it means taking a life of a criminal performing criminal acts and is resisting arrest and endangering a cops life or a life of an innocent. I dont know what this solution is and how the training needs to adjust, however IMO we need to be careful not to undermine and weaken their training becuase of peoples subjective opinions and political correctness.
As for Sammy, the system took care of the officer. Do I think he acted inappropriately, probably yes. Why did he act like that? It's a tough one, maybe one of the self proclaimed terb experts have already pschoanalyzed him and now have a few possible explanations.
In the other video about the guy being "excuted" it is not as clear as the sammy case. It appears like the guy was struggling, resisting and there are reports of a gun. Its hard to say what happened without analyzing the situation from all possible angles. However, many people are acting prematurely, including one black lady cop and accusing them of executing this guy without letting the system look at all the evidence and facts that we are not previ to. On top of this you get an ignorant talk show host pretending like he knows police training and what they need to do, and on top of this you get ignorant comments further supporting ignorant subjective statements about how a police officer needs to be trained.
Come on now, some things are not this simple despite the fact it makes us feel good to do it.
Even if we think a cop has made a bad decision, at the end of the day allow the system to take its course, allow appropriate investigations to take pace and then form an opinion once many facts are know and an official decision has been obtained.
If this is work related, it makes me wonder why you see "sorry no black men" in ads. Either they're really nice guys, or the girls don't need other "nice guys" helping/offering them any help with their business, or some other reason(s). lol
It is really amazing how much racist BS comes out of the woodwork.
I am speculating that it is because the forum is anonymous. Or maybe I float in more civilized social circles; I never hear virulent racism like this in real life.
TERB would do well to delete this thread. It is a disgrace.

Effective peace keepers are as mystical as a unicorn now. It was the the policemans job to keep the peace and they are being told by BLM to leave the public alone. What happened in Dallas is going to get more ppl killed while the police feel threatened. Even here in Canada wherever there are BLM protesters the police are going to be on edge when normally they wouldn't in your area. Toronto chief is telling his officers to be careful
and prepared if shit goes down. If BLM wasn't here he wouldn't feel the need to send
that message.

It's tough to be a racist out there and "tell it like it is" especially if you have a good job.
The CBC news site recently stopped allowing anonymous online comments (users need to register with a real name). Needless to say the tone of the conversations changed.
And right. Police officers are under siege you watching the news?
BLM and the Minnesota governor don't even know the facts of either shooting and they are already passing judgement. Mocking the Constitution that provides something called due process.
They are not a terrorist organization, that is silly. But they are bordering on being a hate group. Much like the New Black Panther Party.
