It seems like the Black Lives Matter (BLM) protest is simply a problem for the Left. When a group of protesters jump up to interrupt the likes of Martin O'Malley and Bernie Sanders because their stances are not progressive enough, it appears they have placed themselves on the fringes of public debate.
Yet the movement that began as a response to the controversial deaths of Trayvon Martin, Freddie Gray and Michael Brown has tried to keep the issue of criminal justice reform, the fight against racism and the plight of many black communities in the forum of public debate. In that lies an opportunity: What if conservatives could provide answers to these policy questions?
As they did with the Sanders campaign, BLM protesters tried to interrupt an Aug. 11 New Hampshire event hosted by Hillary Clinton. The group never got past the Clinton machine’s security, though five protesters did secure a private meeting with Clinton after the event.
The conversation with the presumed Democrat nominee fell faster than an email hard drive into the trash.
In one video, Clinton interacts with BLM advocate Julius Jones, who wants some answers from Hillary. It was her husband, after all, who signed criminal justice reform in the 1990s — and apologized for it recentlybecause it was unfair to blacks.
“Now that you know the consequences, what in your heart has changed that will change the direction of this country?” Jones asked.

To that, Clinton replied, “Respectfully, if that is your position, then I will talk only to white people about how we are going to deal with the very real problems.”
She has no decent diplomacy.
BLM will go down on history as a bs movement.
I might have more sympathy for the BLM movement if they had a real concern for black lives. It appears the only black lives that matter to them are the ones killed by white policeman. However they don't appear to have any concern for the thousands of black lives taken by other black people.
They don't have any concerns for the white lives , men and women that are killed and raped by blacks everyday. Screw those who back this movement , I've had better bowel movements even though they smell the same.
And especially not the innocent white people they mob target. They are nothing but self-entitled, aggressive and bullying whiners with a hyper-inflated sense of self-worth.
So funny.
If you think Black lives matter then stay home and raise the kids properly.
At least we can flush the bowel movements, and they are gone forever! Goodbye!
