It has been a while, but recently, I have to say something about this malarkey about the retort about "All Lives Matter" some people have been scoffing at.
While some will say it is like that Dad (White people) being sarcastic to the kid (Black people) about "their fair share"... The problem here is... That is still the 'racist' view from the other side.
The "All Lives Matter" isn't just about whites. It also means Asians, be they Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai or otherwise... Or the Hispanics... Or even people from the Middle East.
The "Black Lives Matter" "crusade" is exactly what it is. Just as for the call for "killing white people and cops".
Where does it end? When one extremist calls for the death of whites and cops because they feel persecuted and tormented by those. I mean, does this mean cops who are of Asian decent or even Hispanic or even of Middle Eastern also deserve to die? Cause that is the implication.
Does this mean the 5 to 15 year old white boys and girls also deserve to die?
If the answer is "yes"... Then it is time to say this is the death of America. The America that was suppose to be the land of the free has now become the land of hatred and misanthropy.
Let me point out something people have to understand. This is all about hate. White Supremacy is about hate... The call to kill White People is about hate... The call to kill cops... IS ABOUT HATE.
Are all cops bad?
Are all black people bad?
Are all white people bad?
If you truly believe the answer is whole heartedly 'Yes' to ANY of those three questions... You will have to stop and think... Are you the problem? And when you look back to how you answered the above question, if any of them are "YES"... Then the answer is "Yes... I am the problem."
Seems extreme? Sadly, this is the legacy of hate. It is about the fact that when you "deal in absolutes", to quote the fictional Obi-wan... Leads to the fact that we are heading down a dark path.
I will say, I am a hot head... I hate certain things... But the one thing I will say, no matter how much I hate... Whether it be a bad boss... Or the jerk who cut me off. I try to hold myself from trying to go that one extra step in killing.
What needs to stop is the hate mongering. Killing or even calling for the death of someone does not do more than create the vicious cycle.
People want cops to stop disrespecting people. That's fine. Killing them to get respect or flat out just acting like a complete ass to them isn't going to make them 'be better'. Yes, we want them to be held to a higher standard, but do you think you would be 'better' if you were disrespected and insulted or threatened to be killed by some random person or even a person who hates you?
And before some of you think I like cops, I want you to understand something. This isn't about the love for cops or being some cop fan or what not. It is about how we treat those who get treated horribly just being who they are and NOT because it is some jerk or jackass who give them a bad name. It is like saying any person who is Asian or Hispanic that are in a gang that all Asians or Hispanics are hoodlums and criminals. Just like many black people don't want to be considered that as well because of others.
And again... Not all cops are white. Not all of them are bad. Yet demanding them to die or treating them all as 'scum' just shows that it is a hypocrisy to say "Black Lives Matter" and demanding cops and whites should be killed.
If you truly feel this is a war against whites/cops versus black... Again, I fear that America has finally died and this is now the United States of Hate.
