    This is all fine, but Obama says black lives matter have some legitimate beef and speak on race a handful of times and he is oppressing the white folks.

    a non sequitur, of course personal responsibility is a huge factor in drug abuse however, nice deflection from this topic.
    Being the topic is how they dealt with it, Nixon played the blame game and locked people of for drug offenses. you know what the remedy is now that a lot of white kids are using heroin. a bill in congress to change the drug laws around and deal with the treatment side of it and relax the criminal side of it. The policy is the difference here. Look at Maine, Governor LePage, blamed black drug dealers for flooding the state with heroin at state that 93 percent white. Its not the users fault of of course, because they are white mainly from the lips of a republican

    http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2016/01/lepage-blames-maines-heroin-woes-on-d-money.html


    At a town-hall meeting on Wednesday night, Republican governor Paul LePage of Mainetold voters that the state’s drug problem was caused by troublemakers from out of town who come to Vacationland to sell heroin and impregnate white girls.

    “These are guys by the name D-Money, Smoothie, Shifty," the governor said. "These type of guys that come from Connecticut and New York. They come up here, they sell their heroin, then they go back home."


    But this ok, all that personal responsibility Republicans love to spew.

    I just don't see how the BLM can or should have any legitimacy in acting the way they do.

    I mean, you guys dont take Trump seriously.

    I ve criticized that movement from the start, but its legitimate to be concerned about some police actions against minorities.

    Nah, you lose all legitimacy when they rottenly act in ways that are now normal for them.

    To each their own.

    so protesting is the same as shooting an unarmed black man in the back.
    gotcha.
