As for the AARP comparison you know the point I'm making but prefer to ignore it because you can't address it. As for me, of course I'm not threatened by BLM. You don't hear that from me here and I'm surprised by how threatened you guys are by it. It makes no sense.

I sure as fuck did. I asked you to expound upon your answer. Just syaing "No" and then immediately going off on something else is deflection. That is exactly what you did.

As for the "point" you're trying to make.... Congratulations, you now get the point everyone else has already made concerning the Bundys and the NFL kneeling thing brought up here.

Also, show me one person here who is "threatened" by BLM. Why do you constantly feel the need to tell people how they feel?

Here is a pretty good write up on the why.

The verdict
There is evidence in the official police-recorded figures that black Americans are more likely to commit certain types of crime than people of other races.

While it would be naïve to suggest that there is no racism in the US criminal justice system, victim reports don’t support the idea that this is because of mass discrimination.

Higher poverty rates among various urban black communities might explain the difference in crime rates, although the evidence is mixed.

There are few simple answers and links between crime and race are likely to remain the subject of bitter argument.

Area with higher crime rates are likely to have more police in them? Wow.

Did the US government test multiple nuclear weapons on government land or not?

Or are you just going to pretend that blasting off nukes willy nilly hasn't had a profound impact on our environment but plastic straws are the greatest threat to mankind?

As of 1993, worldwide, 520 atmospheric nuclear explosions (including 8 underwater) have been conducted with a total yield of 545 megaton (Mt): 217 Mt from fission and 328 Mt from fusion, while the estimated number of underground nuclear tests conducted in the period from 1957 to 1992 is 1,352

No. You're wrong. I answered his question clearly and concisely. That's all there is to it. I don't owe you a paragraph explanation. I don't understand what you're saying about the bundy flag kneeling thing. It seems you think you've made a point but I don't see it.

All you all are threatened by it. The whole right has made it into a talking point. They blast BLM as terrorists. It's fear that's driving this and it's irrational.

I could provide videos and link to refute what you're providing. I'm not going to because it's pointless. I get that it's a complicated issue and you have a valid point about levels of crime causing greater levels of police hostility.

I wouldn't say we blasted nukes willy nilly. We did test them and develop them. I don't even know the last time we did an atmospheric test in the continental USA and this and plastic straws have nothing to do Bundy's standoff.

I've said it on here many, many, many times. It isn't a race issue, it's a class issue concerning police. However the lower class IS disproportionately black and that is a legit problem.

100% agree. Crime will always be more prominent in lower economic communities. How we can lift those areas out of poverty is a very worthy topic for debate.

Please cite evidence demonstrating your point. If you are correct, then there should be clear evidence that poor while people are more likely to be killed by police, arrested, get longer sentencing, etc then middle class black people.

We'll wait.
