Recent experience with BLM

[76Knockout]

(This took place this past Thursday night)

I deal with depression and anxiety, i have for years now. I got really bad in 2012 so with the advice from my Mom i went to counseling for over 6 months. It helped a lot, but its still something i deal with every day. One of the things that helps, on nights like tonight when i can't sleep, is going for a walk. So at about 10:45 pm tonight that's what i decided to do.

While i was out, a car full of 4 people pulled up to me and started yelling black lives matters to me, they insulted me, swore at me then eventually drove off. (White privilege motherfucker, cracker were among the things i remember them calling me)

This is why i can't take the black lives matter movement seriously, is this REALLY how the members and supporters of the movement plan to fix things? Yelling and swearing at random people out in public?

I was not raised by racist parent's, i don't have racist siblings or friends. I support equality, i despise racism, sexism and hatred towards homosexuals. I have been a school bus driver for 3 years, and the only reason i stayed so long is because i cared so much about my kids, and they asked me to keep coming back. I love kids, i love animals, i love good people. By all intensive purposes i consider myself a good person.

Yet i had to be insulted and made to feel shamed, while i was trying to clear my head not trying to bother anyone.


What have your personal experiences been? Anyone have any positive stories to share? Just curious.

Don't feel ashamed, the entire reason they continue to do this shit is because white people bow down and feel bad for something they have no control over.

Black lives don't matter to Black Lives Matter.

It really upset me seeing as they good intentions of the so called movement i agree with, yet i won't ever associate with it when shit like this keeps happening and worse (like people/cops being shot).

Like you don't even know who you are taking your anger out on, fucking immature as shit.

Those BLM people are haters. And haters gonna hate. You keep being a good person, keep caring about others, keep doing good for others, keep making yourself better. And just ignore the haters in life. God Bless you.

Thanks brother.

I feel like this is my inevitable future dealing with BLM/migrants/liberals.

The entire movement is a bunch of uneducated people basically relying on memes and emotional reactions instead of facts and proper discourse to discuss and deal with these issues. It doesn't help that a lot of people opposing BLM are retards and it's two sets of morons colliding.

Well TS, sorry that happened to you...

You can't let some jerkholes turn you off to an entire race of people or a movement. EVERY group is going to have bad people and yes during our 24 hour news cycle, the angriest voices get the most airplay. If you don't believe me, see this years Presidential election and the Brexit.

I've had the Sherriff's son hand out KKK recruitment cards to me back in High School (I'm a Black dude BTW) and it didn't turn me off people who happen to be born White. Ignore them and move on.

You misunderstood me. I don't support black lives matter, that doesn't mean i don't support black lives. I guess its bigoted to say but its true, i support all lives.

I won't associate with a hate group, which is what BLM appears to be. Just as they complain good cops don't come out and condemn the actions of bad ones, i don't see many good BLM members coming to condemn the actions of the bad ones.

I think BLM is a hate group too. I think there's a few in BLM that are mislead and think it's a good group. But there's too much chaos created by the group.

It's not bigoted to say you don't support BLM, but you do value black lives. Color doesn't matter. Good people are good people.

Exactly, well said.

You're right and I support ALL lives matter also. But like I said, the loudest angriest voices are the ones that get airplay.

Black lives don't matter to Black Lives Matter.

I know I wasn't even alive in 1964. How many posters on sherdog were alive? I doubt too many were.

 

[Pixelated Porn]

You should take criminal hateful racists who are against you seriously as they are dangerous.

 

[punky brewster]

They're a hate group.
Doing things like that doesn't promote change or growth. Marching in the streets, blocking off intersections and closing highways does nothing to save black lives. It pisses off "whitey" and that makes it fun for them.

 

[RetiredSlave]

Im from small town Canada so non issue for me. I feel ya though. Also sorry to do this but its all intents and purposes not all intensive purposes most times... best wishes.

 

[Brodels]

A grenade would've stopped that shit.

Twin Cities used to be chill, now not so much... I'd be more scared of the groups of Somali's who have been mugging people left and right in Minneapolis though rather then some punk BLM kids. If your white you really shouldn't be walking alone that late at night in Minneapolis, its sad but true.
My buddy (not white but hmong) almost got mugged at a gas station on 1st ave a few weeks ago by some cracked out Somali guy, lucky it was only one guy and my buddy was able to KO him. My friend talked to the gas station attendants and the police and they basically said this is run of the mill shit and he shouldn't be walking by him self so late at night. The police said he was lucky it was only one guy cause it is usually a gang of them, if your not packing heat or at least a knife I wouldn't be walking alone.

 

[SRN]

You're a good person @76Knockout those four idiots aren't. Don't let their hate and anger affect you.

 

[spin]

There is BLM the movement with some legit points, and there is BLM the hashtag. Much like feminism and other movements, even white or nationalist empowerment. Same deal, some have some strong ideas for consideration, most just want to shout about it when it benefits them personally.

What you've encountered is of the hashtag variety, basically trashy people being trashy, and having no idea about anything beyond their own selfishness, jumping in on an idea they have no understanding of, then fucking up the message.

Let stupid be stupid and trash be trash


Or find ways to get entertainment out of arguing with them, as we all do here in the war room

Either way is good
