re: #340 Nyet

Okay. You don’t like MLB, BLM, etc. So what?
Hopefully BLM is doing some good to get the message out there that the police need to be held accountable when they abuse their authority just because the victim is Black.

I don’t support everything that BLM has done but I support their overall aim which is to draw attention to the mistreatment of Blacks by the police, which too often goes unpunished.

I share David Pakman’s concerns that BLM is not being consistent when it decries Israel’s treatment of Palestinians but closes its eyes to transgressions committed by other countries.

Black Lives Matter Calls Israel “Genocide,” “Apartheid,” Endorses BDS Movement

However, my disagreement with BLM on one issue doesn’t invalidate its goals, in my opinion.
