Trivia nights sucked (for me), and west coast farm boys were suuuuuuuuuuper popular at her class reunions.
All west coast farm boys, or just successful west coast farm boy$?
Haha /s, this was like 15 years ago and they would barely shake my hand.
Needless to say, not really my crowd.
Can anyone help me understand why the media and BLM are completely ignoring the black children who were murdered this weekend?

Look for Anthony Brian Logan on youtube. He's a conservative black guy who does daily videos of current events that affect the black community. He put out a video today about CNNs Don Lemon arguing with Terry Cruz about BLM and brings up this very subject about why black lives only matter sometimes.

1) They are not ignoring it.
2) Black children are murdered every weekend. It's not unusual, so it doesn't rise to the top of the news. But I have seen it all over the mainstream media.
I think this is probably another instance of your thought leaders telling you the media is ignoring something, and you believe it, without taking a look for yourself.

there is nothing that authoritarian right-wingers love more than an opportunity to accuse liberals of being The Real Racists ™.
You just fed the kitties some catnip.

Poor kid. I take a few days off and look at u.
#BLM is fine with black children getting killed by criminals but they'll burn down your town to "protest" a cop killing a criminal. Almost like they want the cops gone for some other reason than that once in a blue moon the cops commit murder.

Abolishing the police is stupid, and even more stupid to propose. Yet, it’s not being widely denounced as stupid because a currently politically advantageous group proposed it.
BLM is being played by the left as legitimate because they believe it will help them get orangeman out of office.
If Biden wins, BLM will vanish with the quickness as a preferred democrat front.

Won't vanish. Just will become more moderate and mainstream,

Lol. Can't Google what you need a brain to figure out?

I bet if I asked both of you to explain what he means, but made sure the two of you couldn't collaborate on your answer, I'd get two very different answers.
Wrong.
In fact, I'll throw down an avatar challenge. Bet on it.

How can I proctor your exam?
Besides, this is a feint.
JJ's obviously referring to abortion, I just was trying to lead him to being more direct about it, so the flaws in such a comparison would be clear.
You two would explain the comparison differently also. As there is no clear logical path between police treatment of minorities and women choosing to abort their babies, I'm sure the two of you made different wild leaps in logic to get there.
