Where is Black Lives Matter now?

They have nothing to say about Steve Stevens killing an innocent old man? They aren't outraged a grandfather was walking home from his family's house and was shot for no reason? They aren't crying out for justice now.

    No

    You're crappy little partisan hate machine just hasn't bothered to do any actual journalism. BLM doesn't have a single leader, so how many interviews have you read with the individuals which asked about this?

    Oh right, you just read commentary.

    You were just waiting for such an incident, weren't you? Just too, too eager to ask your "clever" question. Stack this one incident up against the at least weekly incidents of some unarmed black man being shot by some cop who claims to have felt "threatened" by the scary black man. Remember that such incidents - and much, much worse - go back decades, or centuries. Then, ask yourself "Where was BLM in 1820? In 1840? In 1878? In 1932?" It's a wonder to me that this self-protective protest movement you are obviously so frightened of only emerged in the twenty-first century. And you call liberals snowflakes! You and your kind are afraid of EVERYTHING that isn't lily-white!

    Black Lives Matter is about the institutinalized racism prevalent in our country's law enforcement agencies and about society as awhole that condones the belief that a black person's life is less valuable than a white person.

    Have any more strawman arguments?

    Black Lives Matter doesn't have a beef with the Steve Stevens incident because the justice system fully intends to charge him with murder and send him to jail.

    The rhetoric of All unjust causes is used only when said rhetoric suits the unjust cause.

    Have a nice day.

    Why is it that you expect them to condemn actions nobody anywhere is applauding?
