Those are some very worthy causes; memorializing women and men who have lost their lives to breast cancer, also people who have been discriminated against and lost their lives, whether it be civilians or police killing black people.

Perhaps they could also squeeze something in remembering police officers who honorably and at risk to their own lives served the public but were lied about and slandered and lost their jobs and received death threats even though the Justice Department said they had acted reasonably and that those accusing them of misdeeds were LIARS...

@1 Or, we could let these worthy causes have their moment where we don't feel compelled to undermine them in any way. is it really so threatening to recognize what the BLM movement and other protests are trying to call attention to? It isn't necessary to be defensive, sometimes listening without the yeah but... is awfully nice.

How does anything in the second paragraph of @1 undermine anything in the first paragraph?

If The Truth undermines your cause maybe your cause isn't really worthy.

BLM is founded on a Lie.

It's premise depends on a false narrative that distorts and grossly exaggerates the likelihood an innocent black man will be killed by police without justification.
It poisons an already strained relationship between police and a community that disproportionately commits and is victimized by violent crime.
It instills in credulous uninformed people an unjustified and toxic hostility to police.
It sucks up the oxygen and prevents much more pressing issues afflicting the black community from being addressed.

The Lies of BLM must be confronted and exposed.

Sadly no one on the Left seems to have the courage or integrity or understanding to do so.

@2, fascists gonna fascist.
