Black Lives Matter

This. In the States at least, the evidence is that, from a number of perspectives, that black lives matter less than white lives. Even over here, evidence suggests that BAME people are more likely to be subjected to stop and search, etc.

Chicago has had over 10,000 murders in the past 20 years (mostly black people being killed by other black people) and nobody gives a fuck. A white police officer kills a black man without cause (a very rare event) and there's hell on all over the world. It's all politics I'm afraid, people pushing agendas and the masses lap it up.
 
They do. The BLM movement isn’t suggesting only black lives matter, it’s wanting black lives to mean the same as others.

No doubt racism is still alive but this is focused on systematic abuse from American police when the data appears to suggest otherwise?
 
There's a reason why stop and searches that happen to white people are just stop and searches.

There's a reason why stop and searches that happen to black people occasionally end in that person being dead.

It created opportunities for certain organisations to create havoc and became a free for all to loot and destroy in the usa. I cant believe people in the uk got dragged into it.
 
Love these threads when the grandads all come out.

“white lives matter!!” Irony being they’ll have been at their doorsteps for weeks on end clapping the NHS. :lol:
