I imagine the media is more focused right now on the acts committed, the intent, and the lives lost.
the shooter was pissed about white offers but the incident in Minnesota the officer was Asian and then there was another case where a white kid was shot by white cops while laying on the damn ground and that got damn near zero coverage
I mean seriously can people not see thru the bullshit agenda?? divide and conquer

So now you're putting words in my mouth that were never intended that I'm against BLM. Seriously?? WTF. You don't know me. Stop being so condescending with your comments.PJ_Soul said:PP193448 said:Fuckng ridiculous. All lives matter!!!
Just sayin'.
Obviously, cops' lives matter too, and other lives. No shit, everyone knows that. But being against the real idea behind BLM is what's ridiculous. I fully acknowledge that some more radical BLM supporters go about making their point in the wrong way (and then there are fanaticial freaks like the one(s) last night in Dallas, which I automatically don't even consider to be part of the BLM movement whether they end up mentioning it or not), but that doesn't change the fact that BLM makes a legitimate point generally.2006 Clev,Pitt; 2008 NY MSGx2; 2010 Columbus; 2012 Missoula; 2013 Phoenix,Vancouver,Seattle; 2014 Cincy; 2016 Lex, Wrigley 1&2; 2018 Wrigley 1&2; 2022 Louisville0 -
I have always seen it as people accusing COPS for not treating black people justly (in certain communities/cities). Not white cops. I don't feel like the media has made it about just white cops. I feel like the consumers of the media just make that assumption all by themselves.With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata0

I posted about that case in Fresno about that white unarmed 19 year old shot 4 separate times while lying on the ground. ALL lives matter.....I posted in the Police Abuse thread.pjalive21 said:

You're exactly right
Guns don't kill people
Gun owners kill people
True, but guns sure make it a lot easier to kill a lot of people as quickly and efficiently as possible.

right now st. louis - Just minutes after Loretta Lynch urged "actions" with regard the divisions in America, FOX2NOW reports a manhunt underway for the shooter of a police officer in West St. Louis County. The officer was wounded three times in the neck after a routin traffic stop for speeding by an African-American male.

They are stating it was one lone gunman. The echoing from the surrounding buildings led cops to believe there were multiple shooters.EM194007 said:

Whose agenda? I see two here. Media likes blowing this up and help spreading lies with 24/7 coverage of things like "Hands up don't shoot" but ignore coverage when physical evidence doesn't support that. Gets good ratings and coverage.pjalive21 said:

Groups like BLM do the same, spread hate by ignoring the facts and encouraging violence and riots. Obviously most are non-violent, but those riots in Ferguson and Baltimore wouldn't have happened without those movements.
They both feed into each other- Media gets good coverage while (falsely) giving people something to riot about and protest.0 -

I have a real good friend who is a Texas (DPS) Trooper, and he is saying multiple shooters. Right now, I'll believe him over anything coming from the media.Dr. Delight said:

This is not about gun control. This is the result of spreading hate about cops and calling it "open season" on blacks.
With over 600,000 cops in our country there have been a very small number (2 or 3) of legitimate murders-the rest were killed when a perceived weapon was used, fighting back, died of a heart-attack while fighting back etc. And groups like BLW ignore all of the facts, spread lies about the situation and spread fear and hatred. More cops have been killed since Ferguson as a result of an ambush like this.
Its not about guns, its about ALL lives matter. and this blood is on the hands of those self serving people like Jackson and Sharpton who benefit from this hate spreading and promote this hatred.
Comments like the ones on other threads such as "its open season on blacks" and "if you're black and sell CD's you get killed" are just stupid. They endorse this behavior, and then you wonder why some cops over react? Because you help spread that fear into them.PJ_Soul said:PP193448 said:Fuckng ridiculous. All lives matter!!!
