You know what this alllivesmatter bullshit reminds me of?
It reminds me of older elementary school children bitching that the baby gets all the attention. Like mom, how come you have to change the kid's diaper and shit? Why are you always holding him and nursing him? Don't you know we matter toooooooooooooooooooo??
There is an entire population that is incredibly vulnerable due to centuries of policies, laws, and culture but fuck them, right? They did this to themselves.
What a shame. This is not a race issue. This is a compliance of the law issue. At least two of those "victims" were defying the law and refusing to comply. Where and when do Blue Lives Matter ? Why is it police's fault that people refuse to comply with the law?
UNARMED does NOT make them innocent or non-dangerous! Being unarmed can be just as dangerous. Let's take a six foot five male and a five foot one. Tell me how the shorter one should fight to live? This is a race bait that those who believe this crap jump right into.
I won't be supporting this one bit. But I do support their right to believe or speak their beliefs.

its cute, BlueBayou that you think you have shit to teach us.
thanks for putting out words I never said. i never said I needed to teach anyone anything. Mutual learning is something I strive for in any CIVIL convo. My mistake was thinking this group was mature adults who could do that. My only mistake. Lesson learned about this group. Thank You all.
I don't think we're the ones who have something to learn in this conversation.
Wow. So attempting to have a conversation is out aparently. all you want to do is attack me personally, as if you fucking know me, instead of a civil conversation/debate. If you can't handle a different viewpoint and have to insult someone you have alot more problems than your own lack of intelligence. I wouldn't discount anyone's experiences or beliefs simply because they didn't agree with mine. I was open to other viewpoints and didn't insult any of you. Clearly you guys can't even handle that. Go ahead little girls keep bashing me. It didn't do a damn thing to help your point. No wonder this divide exists. Because of things like this being personal instead of being able to have a civil discussion and educate each other. You really think you can help change the world/viewpoints by attempting to insult people? Tell me where I insulted any of you to deserve that ridiculous bullshit. The only ones who need lives are the those who can't handle a different viewpoint than theirs and have to attack persons who aren't on their bandwagon. Good luck on your bullshit cause that won't get heard due to immature ones who must attack without cause. All you all did was help prove ignorance is here to stay. Thank you all for the lesson and why I will continue not to support it. I actually thought there were some good points made until you marred it with the bullshit. Well done.
goddamn it I thought we were still talking about delicious ice cream. So I mean...her normal posts are just normal posts generally based on a random sampling - but that sig - that seems awfully ironic.
So, what the world would induce you to take a toddle from S&B and S&O over here and drop THIS pile of steaming dog shit into our nice warm and fuzzy ice cream post? I mean really. Bored much? Because either you're pretending to be a fucking dim racist assbag to get a reaction (which makes you an assbag of epic proportions) or you are actually just a flaming racist.

I hate that talking point "race bait." I see that all the time in the scary comments on news stories etc. it doesn't seem to mean anything other than trying to declare racism as over and there's no need to talk about it/ shut this conversation down.

Uh huh.
Also, "apparently" and "a lot".
There's the door -----------------------------> and don't stop in the corner because no one there wants to talk to you, either.

Ah, here comes fuckstick trolling for likes again.
And there are a few in this post that I would like to marry if polygamy was legal (because same-sex marriage is legal here - by voter referendum even! - so it's totes cool.)
Wait, what cop exactly was nearly two feet shorter than the victim he shot? I mean there have been an awful lot of shootings of black folks lately so I'm clearly a bit confused.
Unless you're talking about how short 12 year old Tamir Rice was.
TBH, K9 Cop was ALWAYS at least 2 feet shorter than any criminal he met, but I don't think it supports crazy-blue-lives-matter-more-than-black-lives b/c he never used a gun to kill anyone and somehow the alleged criminals he caught still walked away alive, although most needed an booster to their Tdap vaccine.

Listen, on one level, I get it bluebayou. It is hard to confront and own your privilege. It is hard to get to a place of understanding and openness to this type of dialogue, especially after an entire lifetime of hearing about living in a meritocracy. It isn't easy work to recognize the ways that 'privilege' isn't something that only exists in college classrooms.
But, please don't come here and pretend that asking when blue lives will matter and saying that black lives matter means that black people don't care about brown people or whatever you were trying to imply with that was an opening for discussion. It wasn't.
Actually the contrary. S&B is very much like the military with don't ask don't tell. I don't know your political leanings/thoughts on race, abortion, vaccinations, environment, etc. It just isn't talked about.
This is why I had such a hard time posting over there after Eric Garner and Mike Brown. Like, no. I can't deal with being all, "Nice racism, it coordinates well with your shoes!" The board is full of great, smart, amazing women. I just don't know if some posters think that Darren Wilson was justified, that there is no racism involved with Tamir Rice.
I almost came here this morning to see if my boyfriend jeans cuffed over my ankle boots looked okay, but instead I just changed to other jeans and shoes. I was only going to come to CEP also - there's enough of your S&B's to make it worth my time hanging out here.
Oh and racism does look weird with Birkenstocks, so you should probably change out of your hippie sandals before being racist.
I love how she's all "mutual learning is something I strive for" like she's got business to say, and then you go through her post history and its all SO/S&B crap, overuse of punctuation, and this bullshit right here. No thank you, ma'am.

Don't come storming down in here from Bullshit Mountain, spewing nonsense and then get all kinds of why-are-you-pickin'-on-little-ol'-me. You knew this was going to be the outcome when you made your first post in this thread.
Clearly you've missed our many other threads on this issue BlueBayou where we've discussed these issues in depth.
Yes, all lives matter. But sometimes white lives matter more and that's why the #blacklivesmatter is so important because no life should matter more than another. I really don't get why that is such a difficult concept to grasp. Saying black lives matter doesn't mean that white lives DONT matter - it means they both matter so we as a society need to respond accordingly.
Thank you - this is where I am. I am so freaking tired of people popping in and spouting off as though they are the FIRST EVER to have an opposing viewpoint. First off - BTDT. Spend some time on the board; read; understand what it is you are ACTUALLY talking about. Instead, BlueBayou, you spout off an inflammatory viewpoint in an inflammatory way - and then become incensed - outraged! - that because your viewpoint is insensitive and borderline-if-not-outright racist - people object. You make assumptions that there cannnot possibly be LEOs, military, and similar HERE on this board who have already - over and over again - participated in discussions. And that these discussions can reflect opposing viewpoints YET ALSO be thoughtful, sensitive, and lead to better dialogue and understanding. Instead, you rush in as though you represent all that is blue/military/LEO/what have you.
In short, the problem you are having is... well, you.
What a shame. This is not a race issue. This is a compliance of the law issue. At least two of those "victims" were defying the law and refusing to comply. Where and when do Blue Lives Matter ? Why is it police's fault that people refuse to comply with the law?

I won't be supporting this one bit. But I do support their right to believe or speak their beliefs.
Asking when blue lives matter is like asking when white history month is. Hint, it's all the months.
And I'm short. I'm trained on an M16A2 and an M9. I don't think being short means I just shoot people. Last and only resort. Not first. Get your life together.
I am extremely late to this thread and don't know if others have commented yet, but I just wanted to tell you I love you for this.

Now, I'm finally going to get a chance to respond to your foolishness.
This board has on MULTIPLE occasions had dialogue on this subject as it pertains to police officers and the use of force. We've discussed the proper protocol and pontificated on what needs to be done so that UNARMED people aren't shot the fuck up just for being black and looking scary. Guess what - we've come to no consensus other than there should be some sort of training and community policing that comes out of it.
In those discussions, we've had civil discourse. What we don't do on CEP is have patience for folks coming out like the Grand Cyclops of the KKK talking about how we are "race baiting." No. Ma'am. That's why folks are all up in your ass. You come here on 10 and expect folks to treat you with kid gloves and pretend you are a part of the kitten bowl or some shit.
NAWL. Yo' Ass has been handed to you and your edges have been snatched. And because I was busy and didn't get to participate fully, Imma do it some more because it ain't a full CEP Style Thread on BSC Racist Bull Shit until I come in and tell you to have several seats.
In case you didn't know - black folks and people who care about rights in general have been on 10 about unnecessary police force for DECADES. You know the Black Panthers? Oh yeah - part of the reason they came into existence was because of ... POLICE VIOLENCE. Let's move to the 1980s shall we? Public Enemy, NWA - what was that about - POLICE VIOLENCE. Community Policing itself came out of the cries for police to have more training and better dealings with the police in general. Rodney King got BEAT ON FUCKING VIDEO TAPE by the GOT DAYUM POLICE. So, why is it such a hard sell that there is still some remnant of police brutality when it comes to black folks?
This nation has a LONG AND DOCUMENTED HISTORY of police violence towards black folks. That's not "race baiting." That is a muthafucking FACT. Then you bring your ass over here coming for us talking about how we aren't having discourse in the manner you think we should have it and acting like it's incumbent on black folks to act a certain way to stay alive around police. Tamir Rice was playing with a toy gun that white kids play with all the time. White kids live tho. Black kids get shot by police in a car that rolls up and is BARELY put in park.
So this what we need you to do. GO SAT DOWN. Ain't nobody trying to hear your Next Level Foolishness on today.

Now I'm caught up. Still crying over the everything bagel. I'll never look at everything bagels the same way again.
Also, BlueBayou's shtick is so cliche. "*I* am open to other viewpoints [lolololololol] so why can't you bitches be open to my offensive viewpoints???" Kinda like how anti-gay folks preach about tolerating their (intolerant) points of view. Bitch please.
