Stop distracting. Blacks don't kill other blacks for being black -- but KKK did and hate groups do. MLK's quote about protest was relevant not for race reasons, but to illustrate that the insistence of order and the vehement resentment of unrest is not a passive stance, but a conscious ideological, statist one.
- WarmToaster 10y agoBlacks literally kill each other in the thousands each year. The KKK , IIRC, lynched something on the order of a thousand blacks over 80 years. You don't help their situation by denying that fact.
- metalon 10y agoThey did not say that blacks don't kill blacks, just that the reason for those killings is not the victim's skin color.
- throwanem 10y agoDo the dead concern themselves with such niceties? Perhaps they do.
