I think BLM could have given it a rest for one day and let this vigil be about the Americans whose lives were lost in Orlando.
"I was really nervous to get up here because there's a lot of white people in the crowd". Really? How do you manage your nerves every day? Sheesh. Get over yourself.
Black Lives Matter Activist Hijacks Orlando Shooting Vigil, Complains About White Attendees - Breitbart
Y'know what, between this story, and reports of overflowing lines for donating blood,
This just gave me a good idea to pitch to BLM.
The Bone Marrow registry can't get enough minorities to donate to meet the demand for matches.
The chances of Caucasians finding a bone marrow match are 90% (9 in 10) because the HLA is more compatible.
But with minorities, that the foundations have targeted in 4 major groups: African, Latino, Asian and Native American
any member of these groups only has 1 in 10 chances of finding a match to save their lives (there are 10 factors that can match, and at least 8 must match to try a transplant) For some reason, the minority groups aren't as compatible, and they have to be matched by nationality to increase their chances of finding compatible donor tissue that won't be rejected.
and the longer someone waits for a donor, the drugs they have to take to sustain increases their chance of rejection even if they do find a match later.
So why not have the BLM activists lobby for donor by race.
Where it's okay to focus by race, where it's a matter of life or death.
That would bring new meaning to Black Lives Matter.
