BLM is just an offshoot of occupy, it's the same players, the agenda is the same, and the same people are funding it.

I can't speak to your second or last claims, but BLMs actually has a structure and an agenda whereas OWS did not, and I'm not seeing how BLM is an offshoot of OWS. BLM was an offshoot of treyvon martin, buttook off with Eric gardner,and Michael brown. I'm sure there is plenty of overlap between members of each, but the closest similarity I see is that they are both protest movements that ruffled the feathers of the comfortable

"ruffled the feathers of the comfortable"

By burning down their own communities? 

BLM was founded upon lies and misinformation, only retards are involved in that movement.

I have no association with the group, so thanks for not calling me a retard.

No its not a perfect organization, but it always distanced itself from the looting and violence. The anarchists will always be there if there will be a tussle or the chance to break windows. By and large BLM have been nonviolent and they have played a large role in effecting reforms in various police departments.

The "why do they burn their own homes" criticism is probably as old as the first race riots. I don't have an answer but I've always wondered about the question

Blocking highways and airports causes plenty of harm to innocent civilians.

"played a large role in effecting reforms in various police departments"

What would be those reforms?  Are any laws changed?

Negro's have a greater propensity for violence whether it be in the US or elsewhere. Take a step into reality, it can be an ugly place but it's always better then the alternative.

You haven't the slightest empathy with people struggling against what they view as an existential threat because your Black Friday shopping was interrupted or you were held up in traffic? Sure, it would be different if you were a surgeon racing to answer a page. What would it require to earn your consideration? For BLM to keep out of your sight and refrain from rocking the boat? From Birmingham Jail, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr wrote the biggest obstacles to progress were those "more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season." Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection"

Examples of reforms being changes in leadership of numerous departments, civilian review boards, body cameras, new hiring policies and use of force policies, the involvement of an independent agency in fatalities, and others. We shall see if anything will stick

I disagree with you, the scientific literature disagrees with you, and I'm pretty confident most Americans would disagree with you, but believe as you wish.

I am in a minority on the shroomery, as I frequently defend the opposing side when they have a point about something or when my side make believes something about them.  I also attack my side if I think they're wrong.  People here get very confused by that and think it means I prefer the other side.

The body cameras can be used to identify suspects, by simply scanning their features.  I think BLM is just causing ruckus.  You speak of all of these "good" reformations going on.  All they are doing, is trying to keep the public happy for now.  What's going on behind the scenes, is we are fueling the war between police and civilians.  The governments and police are not dumb enough to declare war this early.  The radical followers will strike first, and the relationship between police and citizens will be further strained.  Someday it may all pop off and cause a civil war.

I got held up on the highway because of BLM, and all of my chicken I had taken from work spoiled.  I was also low on gas and almost ran out, and was close to passing out at the wheel.  There may be people needing diabetes medicine or anything.  There was a big congestion on the interstate, until the police were able to stop these dumbasses from protesting on the interstate where I live.  I'm sure it caused major problems with civilians nationwide.  I also don't believe that they are helping the situation in any way.

I'm very sorry for your chicken, your gas, and your blood sugar. But I couldn't help but notice that you are annoyed by the nonviolent protesters yet expecting or even looking forward to violent conflict. A shooting war is going to be a hell of a lot more inconvenient than some bad chicken, I promise.

Michael Brown was a violent thug that assaulted a store owner so he could steal cigars, he then punched a cop in the face and tried to kill him. BLM thought Wilson shouldn't have killed Brown, the justice system proved otherwise because the facts clearly showed Wilson was JUSTIFED in his actions.

All those listed "reforms" are nothing more than a joke, that's not going to change the Michael Brown's of the world and the same outcomes with law enforcement.

Yes, someday I'm expecting it, but I'm not looking forward to it.  The blood sugar thing, was a suggestion that people could die from these antics.  I don't have diabetes, I was about to pass out from being awake for near 48 hours. 

I just feel that they are protesting about a non-issue, and making it an issue.  I feel like when an unfair cop kills a black man, and does not have proper repercussions, that case should be protested only.  Causing headaches nationwide over a small issue makes it a big issue.  I feel like it just adds fuel to a fire that needs to be extinguished, instead of fueled.

The clean cut cases don't cause anything to change. And we aren't trying to change black behavior in this instance but outline protocols about how there has to be an attempt to get prompt medical attention, and police killings need to be investigated, and there must be consequences when an officer royally messes up and takes a life. Not always criminal, but there must be something. Cop-citizen interactions are tense for both parties, we can't let the police (who have de juris slightly expanded rights of self defense) shoot first, then plant a gun and some coke later.

What are BLMs nonissues?

Why are all our conservatives so hateful towards protestors?

Werent you all circlejerking when Bundy decided he should be allowed to graze his cattle on taxpayer land? THOSE are the important movements that we should get behind. Rednecks demanding a nanny state with thr barrel of a gun. Not the police state, or wall street's ownership of our government.

Do we not already have laws and a criminal justice system in place that already address all of those concerns? 

Do cops get charged for unjustifiable force?  Yes.

Do cops get charged for planting false evidence?  Yes.

Do police killings get investigated?  Yes.

Is any criminal justice system perfect?  No, but don't act like we don't already have provisions in place, it might not give the results that BLM wants, but that doesn't mean justice isn't taking place in those instances.

Qman stop it you stop it right now.. the real problem is cops get slapped on the wrist for breaking the law... They usually get fired for something a regular person would have to serve time for.  Little accountability since cops work in close quarters with lawyers and judges...  You conservatives are so naive

OK, lets make the penalty for any wrongdoing from a cop very severe, then who will want to work as a cop in the future? 

Would you take a low paying job that constantly puts your life on the line with the potential of going to prison if you make one mistake?  No, nobody would sigh up for that type of employment.

LOL lots of people will still be cops.

Also, most cops dont put their lives on the line. I know for a fact its been explained to you on numerous occasions that there are easily a dozen other more dangerous jobs out there.

If you cant do a job without breaking the law, maybe the job of upholding the law isnt for you. Bunch of overweight unionized privileged little pussies.
