I agree with some of that.

But at some point, you've got to overcome.

Come on dude, I put reall effort in to that response and that's all you can say? I knew you weren't going to read it.

They can.

I'm just saying that the best way to see results is to work within the black community itself. Always marching against cops is not gonna change your situation. Change yourself and your own community, that's how you will see real change. The cops could be perfect and they could still have the same problems.

no, pretty sure if the cops were perfect tthis problem would go away. Police misbehavior and mistrust is the root of this issue.

Good to know that this cunt is a self-solving problem. I don't see him being remotely successful in re-election.

He even waited 30 minutes to post his second tweet. Smh

I have been boycotting The NFL for years now. Not because of disrespectful bandwagon-ing lemmings. But because the NFL has become unwatchable shit.

I have no real problem with this. I would like to see less politics in sports but at least they didn't disrespect the flag and what it stands for.

I disagree. I think Michael Brown is evidence of that. And that is where/how Black lIves matter was founded.
 
the kneeling during the anthem is meant to be disrespectful. this is fine, but stupid also.

If they want to kneel before the anthem and then rise and stand for the anthem, that's fine.

I assume the kneeling was a protest against the police and racism. I disagree that policeand racism are the biggest problem for the urban black community. I think the black community is their own biggest enemy and problem.

Why do people keep going with this line of thinking?
Do you not understand that these are 2 separate issues? When did this become about what is the biggest problem?
If I go on a campaign to address the problem of lobbying in politics, what sense would it make for you to say "yea, that's a problem, but you should focus on the problem of the electoral college voting process first"
Im not talking about the electoral college, Im talking about lobbying. My focus on one issue doesn't mean Im denying the existence of the other.

The reason why police and racism is such a big problem is because it is the GOVERNMENT, the group that is supposed to be impartial and protective of ALL citizens that is helping to fuel it. That is a huge fucking problem. And it's the most easily fixable one

Again, symptom of the disease, not the cause. Besides, BLM was hijacked used by those with an agenda. The problem it was made for still exists, even if the group itself has a litany of problems and faults.

the only way for it to get better is this.

They are making excuses for the problem instead of trying to fix it.

It's actually a local govt problem. And a community can fix their own problem if you have a good community.

Bad communities can't fix their own local problems.

That's why cities are not good places to live and have so many problems with crime, homicide, theft, pollution, bad parenting and schools etc.

It's not a purely local government problem. The state government has joint ventures with the federal government. The state also answers to the federal on a variety of issues.
The federal government helps to fund schools, housing, jobs, and can force backwards/ultra conservative governments to get with the times.
'Bad' and 'good' communities don't magically spring up. You're not going to have good communities when you don't have good schools, housing, infrastructure, or jobs.
If the government doesn't invest in these areas, they will never become 'good' communities

False. I live in a rural community. Govt investement does not make the community. The govt does not even invest much in my community. We have one stoplight in our school district and it only flashes red.

The people in my community make this a great community.

I think it's morphed into an FU to Trump. When protests become fads, the original purpose seems to always be lost.

I think that's a big part of it. However I still hear things about them kneeling against racism and police brutality.
