University of Virginia Shooting

This will quietly die down because it's a black male shooting 3 other black males.
No BLM outrage or much of a fuck given here by anyone as it happens daily.

God forbid if this was the opposite. There would have been an outcry from the public and BLM
Another TOTALLY SICKENING example where the 100% obvious murderer was not killed during the arrest process. The last thing the world needs is another sicko in jail/hospital.
Here are two people who don't understand what BLM means. I'm sure they probably have a White Lives Matter or Blue Lives Matter t-shirt or some other silly crap. Why would there be outrage? It's a sad situation that happened here. And I'm sure you'll start talking about black-on-black crime or some other distraction. We don't have many facts about motive on this, and it's disingenuous to pretend this is related to BLM.
So, are you advocating for police to "execute" a murder suspect? That's a pretty fucked up.... Why do I suspect that you're also a Freedom Convoy supporter....which would only make this comment even more hypocritical and fucked up. I mean, if we just allowed the cops to kill anyone suspected of murder (or other crimes), that is pretty much the definition of fascism and the removal of freedom....
I am not a Freedom Convoy supporter. I strongly believe in law and order.
The sad part is that during the arrest process that the sicko murderer often does not resist arrest to such an extent that the only alternative is to kill him as a protective measure for the cops safety. Suicide by cop, in every case, that is the perfect result to end these situations.
I, too, strongly believe in law and order. That's why I worry when people say shit like this dude shouldn't have been arrested alive. I mean, we do not want police to do extrajudicial killings, EVER. Now, self-defence is different (obviously), but the reality here is, especially in the states, the cops are gun happy, especially with POC. Even the most vile piece of shit, like say, the Paul Bernardo's or Cliford Olsen should face a trial and be sentenced to prison.
White people kill each other as well. Another college mass shooting.

4 Idaho college students killed in 'targeted attack,' no suspects in custody
Four University of Idaho students were killed in "an isolated, targeted attack" with an "edged weapon" like a knife, police revealed on Tuesday. The students, who were found dead on Sunday, were identified by the Moscow, Idaho, police as: Ethan Chapin, 20, of Conway, Washington; Madison Mogen...
I'm just going to leave this here .....
So you must be a black man preaching about blue and white lives. If so good for you.
Maybe you need to talk about "All Lives Matter" and stop race baiting.
As far as I am concerned "All Lives Matter"
See, that's the thing. All lives do matter. But it appears that in the US (and here to an extent), black lives don't. Why do you think the protests sprung up? Its because police (not all obviously) felt they could shoot/kill or choke/abuse black suspects with impunity. And, up until the advent of cell phones, they probably did. There are countless examples of black men being killed due to trigger happy cops or ones that don't follow the correct procedures. I'm a white man, and 20 years ago I would have said most of these types of allegations about the treatment of blacks was bullshit. Now, we've seen what happens. It isn't an exaggeration. They are treated differently, and with deadly consequences.
Remember that kid in Cleveland (I think), who was playing with a toy gun? The cops arrived on the scene and SHOT HIM DEAD in seconds. There was no chance to de-escalate or even tell him to drop the weapon. Just BANG. Would the cops have rolled that aggressively on a white child? Odds are no.
Maybe the slogan should be Black Lives Matter As Well (BLMAW)! Because in many parts of American society, they are disposable people. You look at places like Flint, MI, where the lead in pipes has poisoned hundreds of mostly black children. It's a problem they knew about for years, and did nothing (even to this day).
So, yes all lives matter. But that isn't what is happening in the US, and if you look at how we treat the first nations, up here in Canada.
Anytime someone spouts this "All Lives Matter" bullshit is totally missing the point. BLM is not about the supremacy of blacks, or them wanting special treatment. No, they want to be treated like any other citizen. They don't want to be gunned down or assaulted by police just because they're black. So, it isn't race baiting.
Blah blah blah.
MLK has said black people need to fix black people. Stop killing each other. Stop hiding behind the faults that are of your own making. Opportunity is for everyone, it's up to that person to take advantage of it and make the best of it, not sitting there feeling sorry for themselves. This is true for ALL races.
An eloquent response. Thanks for sharing.
I don't know what all that facts are so won't jump to any conclusions at this point.
The grand standing MSM should practice the same restraint as well. Dig for the story don't create it around the narrative you are trying to sell.

LOL. Where there fuck did MLK say that? I know his constantly quoted speech is to judge someone not by the colour of their skin, but by the content of the character. Something the US has not lived up to. And here is a shocker: The vast majority of issues affecting the black community stem from historic inequities. The thing is, no matter how many example's I'll list, you won't believe them or find some other reason why that community a mess. It's people like you who say the US had a black president so there can be no racism or some other bullshit. But why don't you read some history books that explain the persistent ways in which POC (especially African-Americans) have been purposefully held back or impeded from improving their social standing. But we both know that won't happen.
Very articulate rebuttal. That's about what I expected, so I'm not disappointed.
