BLM is failing because facts don't support it and it's name doesn't support it's actions.
TRUTH is only 12 unarmed black men were killed by police (unarmed does NOT mean not threatening). https://www.washingtonpost.com/graph...hootings-2016/
According to the National Weather Service, about 300 people are struck by lightning each year. If we set aside agendas and assume lightening really doesn?t target people based on race, and remember Black people are 12% of the US population, then we can expect an average of 36 Black people to be struck by lightning each year. NWS Lightning and Heat
So the first item to point out is an unarmed Black person is 300% (THREE HUNDRED TIMES) more likely to be hit by lightning than shot by the police.
BLM?s next major issue is its utter indifference to the thousands of Black people murdered by other blacks each year. Did you know, according to Eric Holder?s Dept of Justice, Black people murder each other at eight times the rate of whites (that?s not a typo; it?s just a fact). https://www.bjs.gov/content/pub/pdf/htus8008.pdf
Which means about 5,800 are murdered by other Black people each year (data from this Eric Holder era Dept of Justice report: https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s...e-data-table-1)
Point #2: BLM isn?t interested in doing anything to help the 5,800 Black people murdered each year.
So, the bottom line for BLM is they could get EVERYTHING they want and would achieve NOTHING more significant erasing statistical noise. A question to ponder is if they should sue Mother Nature instead since she?s responsible for killing 20% more unarmed Blacks than the police?
Should ?Black Lives Matter? change its name to something else since they act as if they don?t care about black lives???
