    Nope we are not - that's just your crazy made-up reality - or unreality.

    By the way, protesting unnecessary police brutality isn't the same as saying black people can't get jobs because of racism. You are making up arguments to attack. I think you have a distorted view of what people are asking for.

    After all this talk -- is there any proof that BLM is a legit organization or just a mouthpiece for extremists?

    Your thread title says movement, not organization. I don't know anything about the organization nor do I care but the movement is perfectly legitimate and frankly a long damn time coming.

    #FUKYOFLAG MOVEMENT CALLS FOR BLACK LIVES MATTER VIOLENCE ON 9/11

    Members of the Black Lives Matter splinter group *** Yo Flag are threatening violence on September 11 in videos and blog posts.

    After posting a recent video that called for “open season on killing white people and cops,” a man who identifies himself as “King Noble, Black Supremacist” has put out another bizarre, expletive-laced video where he delivers a monologue of his contempt for both the American and Confederate flags, which he claims are symbols of oppression.



    The video begins with Noble saying:

    The orders have just come down from the head organizer of #FYF911 movement from Palmetto Star — the ratched revolutionary, too raw for TV — the order has come down to reveal the secret locaiton of FYF mobilization.

    The event will be held in Stone Mountain. Get there. In Stone Mountain, you will witness the end of U.S. imperialist white supremecy. September 11th, Stone Mountain. Get there.

    Stone Mountain, Georgia is a park and the home of the Confederate Memorial Carving that commemorates three Confederate leaders of the Civil War: President Jefferson Davis and Generals Robert E. Lee and “Stonewall” Jackson.

    Noble goes on to say: “**** yo flag. Stone Mountain. It’s over with. We will burn every single flag.”

    The group’s website contains similair rhetoric.

    “We, the people, are psychologically and physically breaking free of the imperialist, colonialist, and racist empires by burning representations starting on September 11th, 2015. Why September 11th? We recognize that these imperial powers attacked their own citizens on 9/11 in an attempt to gain more power from its people. We are not disrespecting any citizen that may have died during these attacks on this day; instead, we are acknowledging that, from this day forward, we are holding ALL imperial nations responsible for their needless deaths! On 9/11 we will be burning American flags, Confederate flags, police uniforms, and ALL representations of organized evil and oppressive nations. We also will be raising the Liberation flag and building on a new nation for the people. This is an INTERNATIONAL movement and a day of unity, progressive action, and liberation. To all OPPRESSIVE AND ORGANIZED EVIL after #FYF911, the people will not be bound to you any longer!!

    The *** Yo Flag movement was reported on by Breitbart Texas in a widely-read story after they threatened a vet and others who were exposing them.

    These guys sound like a 60s splinter group in the vein of the Symbionese Liberation Army or the Ecumenical Liberation Army from the movie Network. Couldn't help but LMAO.

    It figures an idiot like you would support an ill thought out poorly organized racist movement that has spun out of control to the point where people have been killed by it's supporters. You are a despicable person.

    And if you support confederate flag, whose supporters include the murderous racist Root. That would mean that anyone who flies that flag is a racist and wants to murder blacks. That is further proof that your logic is so stupid that you should just up because you aren't capable of thinking.

    You missed the point of my post you dimwitted defensive moron. Whether you support the flag or not doesn't matter. Point is you can't label a group as this horrible thing because of one stupid idiot saying they are a support. Hey if a racist says they are a Republican, that means all Republicans are racist right?

    That logic is so moronic and yet you try to peddle it here. You have no business posting. First learn to think, and then come back.

    You missed the point that movement is straight up founded on being a racist to be a member of it, much like the Klan is.

    A-hole try saying IF you support. Read what you wrote, pity seeking idiot. You also run around spouting paranoid bull**** about cops left and right adding fuel for those idiots protesting in the street encouraging people to kill them. But you are too damn stupid to realize that.

    Oh dear - how brainwashed are you?

    To compare BLM to the KKK just shows how divorced from reality you are.

    To say that if you support BLM because you want the police to treat blacks as humans like everyone else, that makes you a murderous racist is just insane. I mean literally insane. i suggest you talk to someone. Preferably a black person so you can start getting some exposure and overcome your racist ways.

    And no realizing that they are both racist in nature shows how naive you are. I get that you gobble up BLM propaganda and accept it as truth, but I'm sure other racist movements and racist groups have propaganda painting themselves in a positive light as well.

    I really hope you are young, it would explain a lot.

    Another one of your honorable buddies bites the dust Glensta.

    Police chief retires 'after bizarre racist rant calling an African-American woman an animal, beating his chest like a monkey and singing the Civil War song Dixie to officers'
    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...ffice-beating-chest-monkey-impersonation.html

    [​IMG]

    An Oregon police chief has retired after a colleague claimed he replied to an accusation of racism by dancing around the room, beating his chest and making animal noises in a monkey impersonation.

    Former Clatskanie Police Chief Marvin Hoover was placed on paid administrative leave in early August due to the incident but on Friday it was announced he will step down from the force.

    In complaint papers, officers allege he put on the racist display when they attempted to consult him on the arrest of black woman who was threatening to file a discrimination lawsuit.

    Clatskanie Police Officer D. Alex Stone is the cop who first highlighted the racist remarks in a complaint to the Oregon Department of Public Safety Standards and Training.

    In his complaint, Stone wrote that around 5pm on June 25, 2015, he arrived at the police station and was speaking with Hoover about an incident that happened the previous day.

    The incident involved an African-American woman who was acting disorderly, and she accused Stone and another police officer of racism and discrimination. She also threatened to file lawsuits against them personally and their respective police departments.

    'As I began to inform Chief Hoover of the particulars of the incident, I relayed several of the arrestee's remarks such as, "When you look at me, my black skin and my nappy hair, all you see is an animal,"' Stone recalled.
    That's when Hoover reportedly interrupted Stone and said: 'That's what she is'.

    'Chief Hoover then began to act like a monkey,' Stone says. 'Chief Hoover placed his hands in his armpits and began scratching them. Chief Hoover also started making loud monkey sounds "Hooo...hooo...hahahaha...hooo...haaah"

    'While Chief Hoover was scratching and chanting, he started to move around the room, in a dance of jumping fashion. While jumping and moving about the room Chief Hoover momentarily beat his chest like Tarzan.

    During this bizarre outburst, Stone says he started to get 'extremely uncomfortable' with his manager's 'openly racist' behavior.

    He says he tried to continue debriefing Hoover about the arrest, but that he continued to interrupt with discriminatory statements.

    He says he tried to continue debriefing Hoover about the arrest, but that he continued to interrupt with discriminatory statements.

    'I attempted to proceed with my brief until Chief Hoover interrupted me again. This time Chief Hoover said, "That's what they deserve."
    'Chief Hoover then started to sing the words to Dixieland: "In a land of cotton...old times they're not forgotten...look away...look away...look away...Dixieland."

    'While singing, Chief Hoover knelt on his right knee and began to make a punching motion with his fist. While makeing a punching motion, Chief Hoover had his left hand in front of him in a gripping motion, as if he was holding a person by the shirt collar.


    'In addition, while singing the words "look away" Chief Hoover moved his head back-and-forth to his left and right as if he was looking over his shoulder. After Chief Hoover finished singing, he laughed and left the room.'
    Following the complaint, Chief Hoover was put on paid administrative leave in August, and then the town's city council allowed him to quietly resign without addressing the complaint.

    Commenting on the accusation, Clatskanie resident Aimee Driskill told KOIN: ' It feels disgusting to be honest with you.

    'The reason why I am really affected by this is because I have seen my father being mistreated by police officers.

    Driskill told KOIN 6 News the allegations against Chief Hoover deeply offended her.

    She has since spoken with Clatskanie City Council members to hear why they allowed Hoover to step down from his position after being placed on paid leave.

    In a public letter announcing the police chief's retirement on Friday, Clatskanie Mayor Diane Pohl wrote: 'Thanks Chief Hoover for a job well done. You have this community's gratitude, gratefulness and appreciation.
    'Enjoy your retirement knowing we will miss you and wish you all the best. Just take it easy on the elk, bear and fish that you will have more time to pursue!'

    Meanwhile, Officer Stone says he has been repeatedly harassed other Clatskanie residents since filing the complaint.

    'I've already faced a lot of retaliation, my wife's been forced off the road twice,' Stone told KOIN. 'I've had people in the community yelling the N-word at me.'

    What is this? Cops pretending to be under attack! Glensta faints.

    Officer shot his own patrol car, Massachusetts police say
    http://www.cnn.com/2015/09/03/us/massachusetts-police-cruiser-shot/

    A part-time Massachusetts police officer lied when he said somebody shot at his patrol car, causing it to crash and catch fire, a police sergeant said Thursday.

    "We have determined that the officer's story was fabricated," said Mills, Massachusetts, police Sgt. William Dwyer. "Specifically that he fired shots at his own cruiser as part of a plan to concoct a story that he was fired upon."

    The officer in question is 24-year-old Bryan Johnson. He is facing charges of misleading a criminal investigation, communicating false information to emergency services, malicious destruction of property over $250 and unlawful discharge of a firearm, according to Mills police.

    According to Dwyer, Johnson was a dispatcher who worked part-time and was training to become a full-time officer. He will be fired, the sergeant said.

    CNN's efforts to contact Johnson for comment on the charges and allegations have been unsuccessful.

    As to his possible motive, authorities haven't said why.

    On Wednesday, Johnson reported that a man in a dark pickup truck shot at him, causing his patrol car to spin around, strike a tree and catch fire. The officer said he shot back.

    Police conducted an intensive search with members of other law enforcement agencies, firefighters, police dogs and a Massachusetts State Police helicopter.

    Also on Wednesday, somebody made a threatening call to a local middle school. Schools in the town of 8,000 people, located about 25 miles southwest of Boston, were locked down for the day and closed all day Thursday. Police don't know if that threat and the cruiser incident are related.

    Dwyer, speaking to CNN affiliate WCVB from outside Johnson's home, said he's not abandoning his friend.

    "I'm not willing to separate myself from him or join maybe some of the people who feel that he's a bad person," the police sergeant said.

    Here's where I say that I have talked to black people about this.... Then you and your buddy CW say unlikely.

    Everyone's lives matter. When the roots of this movement are built on the faux outrage over the likes of a criminal, Michael Brown, then that's a pointless stupid movement built on faulty and in this case racist logic. The Micheal Brown incident was an incident where it was proven that the police were just doing their job and were justified in using force. Keep supporting criminals.....

    More white people are killed by Cops than are black people, so why were white people and all other races excluded from this police mistreatment of citizens movement?

    I suggest you learn to separate reality from paranoia and weed out obvious examples of faux outrage whose sole purpose are to bring more people to the pity party.
