I Am Going to Say Something Controversial

If you believe all lives matter, then you believe black lives matter.

I was introduced to that phrase by someone yelling it from a television in another room. When I watched, it was from a black woman telling a white woman to "get away. We don't want white peoples help." I had a slight push back myself, then regrouped because of knowing the situation and why the phrase came into place. Knowing white people cling to being in control and love to overreact astounds me. The instant self gratification, at least in America, supersedes everything and we love to blame and complain. This subject matter seems to continuously show up. Gays, blacks, women, orientals, latinos, not saying the pledge of allegiance, jews and many others are shunned. We are the only creatures claiming to be civilized but act like territorial animals, always needing possessions.
@openwater ditto.
