Mainstream Media Ignores Story of White
Teenage Girlās Murder, As They Always Seem
To Do When the Suspects Are Black
White kid? Murdered by persons of color? Nothing to see here.....
The brutal murder of 17-year-old Veronica Lee Baker in North Carolina has become another shocking crime ignored by the national media because the victim was white and the people involved in her murder are black.

Of course white lives, blue lives and all lives matter. Murder is always a tragedy. BLM is an activist group focusing on systemic problems involving race and policing. Iām sorry you donāt understand that by now. You must really keep yourself in a bubble.
BLM, as an organization, focuses on systemic problems involving race and policing. The problem is that their actions and words are sometimes inflammatory and violent and this stirs up resentment and hatred toward white people.
I can't say if this crime was motivated by race but I can say with absolute certainty that there are now many more racist blacks than there were. Or at least, many more are manifesting it now.
Agreed, many are very upset. Best way to move forward is improve the dialogue and help them be heard. Pointing blame and demeaning their cause is only going inflame things
Short of all out race war, how can it get any more inflamed? They're already looting, burning and destroying property and this was long before anyone started commenting on the media's silence.
I donāt think the media is silent. I see reports on it every day and Iāll bet you those cities have local coverage on it non stop
That's not what I asked. I asked how it could get any more inflamed than it already is.
Itās could always get worse. The fireworks could turn to bullets, the fires could be bombs, the numbers of rioters could increase, the target areas could grow. Any and all of that would be inflammation
Are you suggesting all this could happen simply by people saying "Blue Lives Matter" or "All Lives Matter"?
If you are then it doesn't speak well of BLM's temperament and lays the entire peaceful protest narrative in the dust. If you are not then I guess it won't matter anyway and it means you are contradicting yourself.
Blue Lives Matter and All Lives Matter are demeaning terms used to mock and belittle Black Lives Matter.
Tell that to the families of police officers who have been killed in the line of duty
because they were police officers.
There is a growing antipathy and hatred of law enforcement and not even you can deny this. Why do you think so many are talking about defunding the police? The BLM message of justice and equality for blacks by law enforcement has transmogrified into a message for many that police are scum and can never be trusted. This narrative started, again, before anyone ever complained about media coverage of black-on-white murders. You know it. I know it.
It is antagonistic. We all know it.
In some cases, maybe. But not all cases. Many of the folks saying "All Lives Matter" see what is going on, as I do, and don't like what they see. Namely, what we're often seeing goes beyond a push for equality to the point of special considerations. What do you think the marching through neighborhoods telling white people to give up their homes was about?
The best way to calm tensions of people who are frustrated and upset is to allow them to be heard, make them feel like their message is understood, and heaven forbid maybe even show some empathy and compassion. Thatās how you calm the waters.
Kinda hard to feel empathy and compassion for a roving mob looting and burning. Or for a mob taking over an entire section of a city; or for people who don't know me to tell me I have white privilege; or for implying that there is a fundamental flaw in my character makeup because of my "whiteness"; for someone roundhouse kicking someone in the head for daring to step in and defend a mugging victim.
Speaking for myself, BLM is not getting any support from me until they stop the rioting and destroying property of those who have nothing to do with officers shooting black men; and until they stop the anti-cop narrative; and until they stop calling looting a form of reparations.
Until this happens I will continue to point out their hypocrisy and criminal behavior.
What do you think arguing, dismissing, ignoring, and accusing does?
You do understand that a lot of people, including non-racists, do not buy the narrative of white privilege and systemic racism, right? This may be difficult for you to understand or accept but a lot of these people actually believe that all lives matter. And contrary to what many liberals would have you believe, they don't say these things to antagonize.
