[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 3475183, member: 24302"] There's a difference between being called something and actually being something. Was MLK a proponent of violence to advance racial equality? No, he wasn't. And that was a major reason for his success. Standing up to violence with nonviolence. You're practicing revisionism. And I've seen nothing from BLM that indicates they're practicing nonviolence. They've openly called for the killing of cops. And, for Sportello's benefit, the problems that exist in the Black community today overall are very different from MLK's time. Back then they were trying to obtain equal status in all aspects of society. To have equal access. To stop brutal suppression of those goals. Today because of those efforts Blacks go to the same schools, use the same facilities, sit where they please, aren't denied simple human dignity. They date and marry other races, they run successful businesses, they buy into upscale communities and aren't relegated to living in substandard areas segregated from everyone else. They have the same right to prosper or fail as everyone else. The ones having difficulty are caught up in the legacy of liberal policies designed to support and make dependent rather than create self sufficiency. Those communities are notable for three major negative phenomenon: the dissolution of the nuclear family, the proliferation of drugs, and the resulting crime and violence. And BLM exists to shift blame from the Black community trapped in that environment to outside forces. Most black murders are committed by Blacks, yet BLM would have you believe otherwise. Marching in the street protesting against cops might make them feel better about themselves, but it won't change the underlying problems that make their lives so hard. [/QUOTE]
