"All Lives Matter" is a phrase used to directly attempt to diminish "Black Lives Matter".  All lives won't matter _until_ black lives matter.

"Blue Lives Matter" is dumb. No one but smurfs are born blue. My neighbor is an exceptional K9 officer, and he also thinks the phrase is stupid. Apparently most of his fellow officers do as well.

You've been watching the Fake News Media again. Cities are not burning, the craziness in Portland was limited to less than 2 city blocks.

Back off from the Tucker Carlson a bit. The _vast_ majority of BLM protests and marches are 100% peaceful.


I get that there's some hypocrisy here, and that the vast majority of police officers are also good people, but some professions just don't allow for that. You aren't going to fly an airline where 90% of the pilots land the plane, and 10% crash it. The pilots, like police officers, have to be perfect. Every time.
