BLM is finally being seen for what it is... A loosely coordinated group that is collecting millions of dollars with no transparency as to where that money is being spent. My gut tells me the leadership of BLM are scammers at best who clearly don't have the best interests of Black lives at heart.
No doubt BLM is a great slogan that few disagree with but it's wrapped around a movement that is anti American, anti family, anti capitalism, anti tolerant, anti police and anti white. This organization systemically ignores the facts. Blacks should not fear the police, they should fear other blacks with handguns.
The odds of an unarmed black man being killed by police is significantly less than getting hit by lightning. In the United States lightning kills an average of 49 people each year and hundreds more are injured. If an unarmed black man is five times more likely to get hit by lightning than killed by a cop what about an unarmed black man who is cooperating with the police?
Every year fewer than a dozen unarmed black men are killed by the police. I don't know the percentage of these who were not resisting arrest but all indicators indicate it's one or two. Even when tragic mistakes are made, such as shooting a gun verses a taser, the victim is nearly always resisting arrest. Bottom line cops are not pulling over Blacks and killing them... PERIOD.
The cold blooded killing of Black men is part of our nations history but I can't find a single example of this in 21st century America. The last lynching in America is usually stated as March 21, 1981 but in fact that was a racially motivated murder by two members of the KKK. According to the Tuskegee Institute a lynching requires the participation of three or more. The last lynching recorded 66 years ago by the Tuskegee Institute was that of Emmet Till in 1955.
The April 3rd, 2021 "Economist" states that a recent English study determined "race is less important than social class and family structure in explaining inequality." This research into what most of use know as common sense immediately brought the predictable US Media backlash. Since when is the truth controversial?
If Leftists keep pushing false narratives it's only a matter of time before the truth wins out. You can fool some of the people some of the time but not all of the people all of the time. The truth is hiding in plain sight. Crime is a huge systemic problem in many major cities and only then in specific areas within those cities. Study after study indicates if resources are focused on those specific areas within cities crime can be significantly reduced.
Without law an order there is no hope for economic success. Without economic success there is no hope for change. Without change there is no hope that America's economically disadvantaged groups will become self sufficient. One little known truth that is completely ignored by everyone is that crime actually doesn't pay for the vast majority of those who participate in it. When you add in the potential for incarceration, injury or death there is no doubt crime is a loosing proposition.
The rule of law, laws being enforced, laws being enforced fairly and equally... These are the fundamental building blocks of any society. Tear these away and the results are obvious and dramatic. American doesn't need BLM dividing us into groups an fostering fear and hatred. No one should be assumed guilty of anything based on their skin color. America needs cops to police the very worst areas of our inner cities. The thin blue line is real and it's what makes everything possible in this wonderful experiment that is American.
