@darrencherwonuk2604If there are more blacks killed by police it's because they break more laws! People killed by police put themselves in that position.....

@JohnTheodore-b6yif afro american people are anti racist, and don't consider humans divided in many races then why the movement name is "black lives matter" and not just "human lives matter"
@Saint_Petersburg1913The history of a moment: A bunch of morons freaked out because a crackhead who used to rob people at gunpoint died in police custody

@flodaisproud2bwhiteAll Lives Matter
@KapilSingh1996-e3yBlack people deliberately put the spot lights on themselves with constantly bringing up 1800s history that NEVER actually happened to them but they feel it through their ancestors...
@REAP3R2024The thing with black parents is that they drill things into the childs head something that happened years and years ago... There's NO MORE black people in cotton fields in the UK, there's no white and black clashes now it's now white/black vs browns... Racism in a child's life AND your own wouldn't happen if u just WOKE up and actually lived peacefully with the whites has we have been doing for years and years
@REAP3R2024Someone said im not black enough, for my life to matter
@latriciaworrick8-dev(google tranclate) I live in a 3rd world country where there are no black people, I caught myself thinking that in the 90s and 2000s I thought black people were cool and talented and I wanted to meet one of them, when the fight for black rights in the media began, they started making movies where white characters were replaced with black ones, the president knelt down in front of a black thug, the media started demanding special treatment from me towards black people, I feel like I'm subconsciously becoming a racist.
postscript - I believe that politicians and the powerful of this world are leading our world into darkness, the world leader, the USA (50% of the world economy), plays the leading role in this issue. Americans no longer have the right to lead us.
Well, a gullible, virtue signaling fool and his money are soon parted. That's what happens when you are stupid enough to donate to a worthless, thieving, racist organization.
@tonysisson898Мне срать на вас))) Возродите Куклус клан)
@ВикторШкредов-л2рremember the kpop group who donated money and ask their fans to donate money just to follow the trend? guess what? your donations are used to have the mansions of the "founder"
@sharplance8393Why don’t BLM matter to Blacks? They Kill one another @ an alarming rate. Ghetto are the most unsafe place for blacks, and that also includes the prisoners for many of those young blacks go.. Check out how young blacks act in a school system you can’t put that on anyone else but blacks. Stop this movement and start working from within. It’s about time.
@charlieedwards3919Your BLM leader bought a 1.5 million dollar home in a white neighborhood. BLM was a scam and a riot. Not a movement. And George Floyd was a habitual criminal. Anyone who thinks less is fooling themselves.
@austin58420A movement. Smh.
It’s a movement alright.
Investigate the fraud.
Criminals are the ones who find out how to be even worse than not mattering.
People will never care about culture clubs anymore. Especially the "backwards, can already be F-ing yourselves, after that, not everyone can be doing it culture club" on the streets.
Total BS !! If one does the crime their own actions come with consequences !if a person resist law enforcement that to comes with consequences ! With those out acting like uncivilized heathens can be arrested or shot ! No matter the nationality ,creed or color ! It is time all people act like human beings instead of animals .. ALL LIVES MATTER

@ayedee6709Charlie Kirk deserved worse
@SpopovichFanBlack lying murderers black lies matter everybody other than black saying anything is racial slurs cuss words profanity
@ufoshereisntdayThis barbaric movement led to a decline in security due to the resignation of many officers who were attacked by the movement, in addition to attempts to marginalize white people in institutions or entertainment venues and focus on Black people and other minorities, and leniency towards criminals. This led to the deaths of many white people; it was a racist backlash. It's good that Trump cracked down on them.
