Did you know that whites can be a minority too?

News flash.

If you believe that Black Lives Matter is racist, you are in the minority.

If you believe that white privilege isn’t a thing, you’re in the minority.

If you think this is just a made up thing by coastal elites... you guessed it... you’re in the minority.

We have a lot of work to do folks. The United States has yet to live up to its fullest potential. Historically, for many of us, it’s been a pretty great place to live.

But it hasn’t been great for all of us.

Now is the time.

Black lives matter BECAUSE all lives matter.

It’s not only in the US either.

It’s time for the US to re-take it’s position as the leader of true Democratic principles. (Not the Democratic party. Democracy baby. Empower the people. )

It’s time for us to include everyone.

It’s time for us to recognize the brilliance of people and to call out those who don’t pull their weight, regardless of race or culture.

We needn’t have minorities at all when we start respecting each other for how we can help one another.

Let Make America Proud Again.

And you think this post is respectful?
To whom?

@QuixoticSoul in my estimation, it takes two to tango.

There were community leaders among the protesters working with the police to keep things calm.

I will concede that not every event was cause and effect

@BlueRain I had a moment

@JoeyFoxx You had something!!

Its a nice thought but sadly will never happen .You will always have that minority in every race who are prejudice it is sadly human nature .
JoeyFoxx · 51-55, M
@Rhodesianman when there are minority perspectives and minority opinions, that’s perfectly ok.

But when folks are singled out based on race, no one is better off.
Rhodesianman · 56-60, M
@JoeyFoxx agreed

Thank you Mr. Pollyanna.
JoeyFoxx · 51-55, M
@RedBaron you took this as an instruction? That’s interesting.

My experience recently is that supporters of Tide Pod Bunker Boy tend to use short and meaningless responses.
RedBaron · M
@JoeyFoxx How many people have you actually had this experience with? My experience with websites like this is that people make sweeping generalizations and assumptions about others based on little or no actual data/information and absolutely no knowledge of other folks' lives and personalities.
JoeyFoxx · 51-55, M
@RedBaron I’ve had this experience quite a bit tbh.

But, it’s curious though, are you and I being a couple of hypocrites right now?
This is a great post ! Thank you !

If you think right vs wrong is determined by the majority you are clueless.

Thugs using "black lives matter" as an excuse are burning cars and torturing dogs in sweden just recently. Doesn't make much sense, but it feels like USA is spreading their idiocy.
JoeyFoxx · 51-55, M
@MartinTheFirst I agree with this 100%

I think that a large majority of people who say “black lives matter” would agree with this.

Internet memes and what have you are meaningless if there’s nothing to back it up.

The purpose of the protests isn’t to DO something. It’s to get people to finally start paying attention so that something will be done.
MartinTheFirst · 22-25, M
@JoeyFoxx "finally"? It's been payed attention to for about 60+ years. You don't need more attention, you need good people. The problem is that good people are rare.
JoeyFoxx · 51-55, M
@MartinTheFirst good people are not rare. But good people are often quiet and tend to yield to the loud ones that aren’t good.

Good people need to unite and give each other louder voices.
