Black lives only matter under the following circumstances...
1) They are killed by white people. White cops killing them scores higher than anything else on the TV coverage scale. 97% of African Americans are killed by OTHER African Americans. Apparently that means SQUAT to Obama and the WH.
2) There is money and power to be gained. How many professional poverty pimps lobbied for and got federal, state, and local dollars for recreation centres/cultural centres/labour and job training centres? Is there still rampant inner city crime in places like NYC/Detroit/Atlanta/L.A./Baltimore? As long as Rev. Al/Jesse/NAACP get their cut, employ their friends, and guarantee people poverty connected jobs, the cycle continues.
3) It generates gun control legislation. While mass shootings generate the discussion in general on gun control, Obama and the WH shamelessly pimp out the black community to try and restrict firearms ownership of law abiding citizens who would never engage in such behaviour. Gun ownership groups have even gone into low income areas to give away shotguns to minority families who greatfully accepted them for self protection.
Let's face it folks, the African American community is a prop for Obama and the Democrats to use to fit their collective political agenda on issues from crime, family breakdown, substandard education, abortion, and employment. You are the window dressing to speeches by Clinton, Obama, and Pelosi. They dress you up nicely to illustrate success, and dress you down like hood rats to illustrate the failure of the 'system'. WHEN YOU STOP allowing yourselves to be used as pieces of furniture for politicians to lean on, you might actually get the equality you are looking for. You shouldn't be proud about being seen as just as dead as the Latinos, Asians, Arabs, or Whites.
Thus endeth the sermon.
ONCE AGAIN< blacks killing blacks does matter to the JUSTICE SYSTEM as blacks are a high percentage of those INCARCERATED for such actions,,
second, isolating Sharpton and others for continuing the cycle, is like blaming a john for prostitution, if women werent willing to do it, noone would profit
and if these situations didnt happen, noone could profit off of them
equally silly is isolating what has been happening to blacks for CENTURIES to democratic presidents,,,,,
If I recall, Bush the first won alot of votes using a picture of a scary black man against his opponent
and Reagan got alot of support for creating the 'welfare queen'
and republicans all over the news are not exactly shy about reporting on 'black on black' crime or other 'inner city' problems as if it is some subculture or some demographic with innately inferior character
,,,
I guess it is pointless
