What did he accomplish?  What is the goal?  "I would like to bring attention to Black people in this country being ruthlessly killed by police officers when they were innocently engaged in felonious activity and threatening the lives of those sworn to protect the community!"

 

As I have said before and I will keep saying until it hits home, you don't have a systemic form of oppression unless Black people are being deprived due process of law and any action taken by a state agency is either not investigated or evidence is hidden so that it's not properly adjudicated.   Black eye witnesses corroborating the story of Darren Wilson doesn't constitute OPPRESSION OF BLACK PEOPLE!  BLM still waves this case around as the poster child for the movement.  It makes BLM look stupid because anyone with common sense can see the absence of logic in the argument and it makes black people look reactionary and emotional in the face of logical evidence. 

 

When Martin Luther King Jr. marched and helped provide meaningful lasting and enduring change in this country he had a clear message based in legal fact, "that the united States of America should live up to the constitution."  He had real objectives, real goals, he organized non violent protest both in the form of marches and boycotts to facilitate and end to segregation and the enfranchisement of Black people.  Also, the tactics that he used engendered a nation sentiment of empathy because he had moral clarity on his side.  Even people who may have been apathetic towards the plight of black people before couldn't deny the fact that it as wrong for the police to terrorize the peaceful black people marching for the basic rights we all enjoy every day. 

 

That's a far cry from marching down the street chanting about dead cops and claiming that a minority officer from the neighborhood having to shoot some guy he went to school with because the guy had a gun and pointed at him is systemic of white oppression.  Honestly, I think this is all some kind of a cruel joke and they only choose to highlight cases that will ultimately be proven as justifiable shootings in the end just to make us look worse on T.V. 

 

And when I look at CK, God bless him, is this really the face of societal change that we are looking for?  He doesn't carry himself like the next senator from the bay area.  He looks like another punk kid from the T-shirt generation. 

 

Feel goodism means JACK when 99% of the country lives in realville and can't hit a receiver on a 25 yard corner route.
