and to you FFL: "People who are fighting for civil rights are tired of hearing that we’re divisive. And we’re tired of calls for unity that are really calls for silence and accommodation. Rather than accepting the false and deceptive claim that our tactics are working against unity, I would ask you instead: What terms of unity would you have us accept?"
If your life is anything like your posts on this site; you're King's nightmare.That we're all the same so stop pretending otherwise. But that's been said forever and some people don't listen or really hear. In other words, try living King's dream instead of talking about it.
I have a quote from MLK hanging in my son's bedroom. My son goes to school out of zone to go to a school that is 90% black. And I grew up only 5 blocks away from where Iverson did (which wasn't the good part of town, but still had a lot of good people in it). So don't give me that chit. The thing that MLK preached was the CHARACTER OF A MAN.. not the COLOR of his skin. That gets overlooked, quite a bit.
I stand by the fact... of measuring the fruit of the actions. MLK faced oppression, but brought people together. Black Panthers simply created division, and 'black' unity - which created more division between people. Where does the fist in the air come from again??? And how did these actions do anything to bring people of all color together??? Absolutely "NOTHING!" But it has caused now INCREASED an issue of division and made an issue that was lesser.. a greater one. I'm not dictating terms... I'm simply observing the affects of the actions that were chosen. They did nothing to bring people together. Just like "black lives matter" create the affect that others do not. That is not unity, and that was not what MLK was about either. So stop using his name for your own purposes instead of what his were.

Grow up and practice what you preach.
Yeah,King would call all of you bitches. He was talking back when no one was, not now when it's turned into nothing but noise because it's so over talked about and rarely walked about.
FFL, i'm disappointed you still don't get it. I wish you had just said "i don't get it". Oh well.
Yeah,you don't know the first thing. Your choice to stay mad/offended or whatever is wrong with you. This thing is going to continue inspite of your wittle fewings.
In the meantime, while don't you go back to concentrating on Carson Wentz's "ailing footwork" that you were so worried about. After all, it was what you were complaining about a month ago that would doom him.
What you don't get.. is just how counter productive this has all been. you/they say this was done to bring the subject to light for the purpose of creating unity. It has nationally caused far more division. You, sir, are the one that doesn't get it. Nor do you see what true injustice really is. This is no longer the 60's. Nor do you see just how much whites and others have done to help. It's a slap in the face, just as it is a slap in the face to the country that gives this freedom. You are the one that doesn't get it, and it makes people care less and less about your cause/whining.
You bring up some good points. Division only adds more problems. I could easily accept an organizationI have a quote from MLK hanging in my son's bedroom.

I think that is part of the problem with the BLM movement. I think it needs to be a more generalized thing, not just something that looks like it is pointed towards white people. I think there are black people that need to be convinced that black lives matter and bring down the black on black crime.You bring up some good points. Division only adds more problems. I could easily accept an organization
called People against police violence. Plus I would imagine that some whites and Hispanics have been victims
in similar conditions. Also I have never seen a situation in the news where an Asian decent has been a victim.
There are better ways to protest in my opinion.
I think all lives matter. It would appear that a lot of people think that as White Americans we are somehow immune to oppression or racism. Here is a quote from the brother of the shooting victim in Charolette.
"The brother of Keith Lamont Scott, the Charlotte man shot and killed by police whose shooting led to riots overnight, called all police and white people “fucking devils” in an outburst to local media.
Asked if there was anything people should know, the man, Tim Jackson, responded, “Just know that all white people are fucking devils. All white cops are fucking devils, and white people.”
The officer who shot and killed his brother was black."
I have European and Hispanic bloodlines but I look white. My grandmother barely spoke English. Why do I not care about what race you are? My mother taught me to be a good person. My kids aren't racist because I taught them to be good people.
HATE is taught!

what a miracle! they fixed his disasterous footwork in less than a month! The new trinity is Jesus christ, Doug Pederson and Frank Reich!They fixed the footwork in camp. Plenty of talk about it needing fixing back in OTAs. Pay attention. And I commented how good it was after the first game. You don't have the first clue about nothing.
