if black lives matters protests are so peaceful

Why were two cops shot in Dallas Texas during a black lives matter protest.

Theres a double standard in this country if 1 black man gets killed by a cop the media explodes but if a black man tries to kill cops the liberal progressives blame it on guns.
Compare the number of black victims of police homicide to the number of cops killed in retaliation. I am surprised the number of revenge shootings of officers isn't greater, The protesters have shown uncommon restraint. This could have erupted into a bloodbath. Peaceful is a relative term and must be taken n context.

Emotions are running high and I imagine some people are hell-bent on revenge. Of course, shooting a random officer who is trying to keep the peace at a rally is not going to help those who have been shot by police officers.
It is a testament to the protester's restraint that the police body count is so low compared to the number of black victims of police homicide.

USA July 2016 (first week) 13 deaths by fire arm

UK 2015 whole year 14.

US 15 death - 7 days (update from 13 a couple hours ago)
UK 14 death - 365 days
UK limits access to guns
US Has the NRA


Causation?
Coincidence?


Hmmmmmm

It's really an amazing thought to imagine how easily this situation could be stopped and how less dangerous everything would be if only law enforcement or military were allowed firearms.

Texas will put whoever did this to death if they are still alive to go to trial.
It's funny how you find a event where a police officer was shot but fail to mention the multiple events where young children have been falsely accused of possession of weapon just because they look suspicious because of their skin colour!Black Lives Matter Too.

@Bubonicroses What about the 93% of blacks killed by blacks? Guess it only matters when a white person kills.
no comments.... I don't talk to racists.

If they didn't have guns how many people would have been shot?
Joker!! Why do you mention black man?? Are you a racist??
UserNameSW · 46-50, M
Because too many people can get guns too easily
Let's hope that they stay as good and forgiving as they have been towards unfair attitude of some of the policemen so far. otherwise they could claim blood by blood. I hope leaders of black community stay wise and forgiving to put a peaceful end to this.

So hundreds of unarmed black people die and it's "not all cops" but two cops die without proof of the shooters identities and the whole BlM is responsible?

Because the left's rhetoric is producing consequences.
@katielass In your bizarre, warped view, the left is guilty of all societies ills. You are incapable of critical thinking, and one of the pawns of the conservative idealogues. You are brainwashed or too lazy to think for yourself.

The fact is that Innocent and unarmed black guys get shot by cops on what seems like a weekly basis. The police basically terrorize young black men. And it surprises you that there is some pushback in an isolated instance by blacks?

Remember, every action has an equal but opposite reaction. It's a law that isn't confined to physics. I'm surprised that there aren't more acts of retribution against cops.

Think, don't reflexively parrot that the liberals are what's wrong with America. Stupid people are what's wrong with America. You are part of the problem, not the solution.
@RandomUniverse 👏👏👏👏 Bravo!!!!

@Qtbumblebee I never thought I would hear such a messed up comment from a supposedly human being ... Racism is the lowest kind of stupidity... Allow me to congratulate you on that.
