Comments by "SmallSpoonBrigade" (@SmallSpoonBrigade) on "Riot Police Storm Property Of Black Lives Matter Member During Protest" video.
The idea that BLM is a terrorist group is rather ridiculous. But, by the same token, they are somewhat racist. Not because they only protest when it's a black person killed, but because they automatically side with the black person and in some cases pretend like they were completely innocent, even when they made multiple poor decisions that put the police in a position where they had to shoot. Tamir Rice is a really, really bad example. Anybody who has seen the video sees that he appears to lower what appears to be a firearm in the officer's direction right before being shot. It's tragic, but expecting the police officers to allow firearms to be pointed at them is completely unreasonable. OTOH, I'd be very surprised if anything comes to light that makes the Alton Sterling killing anything other than murder. But, it's important to give the authorities the chance to do the right thing before jumping to conclusions. It certainly doesn't encourage the police to be more reasonable if they're declared to be racist automatically and reflexively.
