AL Repub Senator Jeff Sessions becomes Trump's first sitting Senator endorsement

That wasn't the point that needed to be addressed. The point is BLM is not as racist as the KKK and no one can say with a straight face that it is.

In today's forms of each, sure they can.

Racist is racist. How can one racist be more racist than another racist? Is there a racist gauge of some sort?

When one seeks to suppress other races through physical violence and the other seeks equality by removing a perceived inequality, then you can say one is more racist than another.

The entire premise of the KKK is white superiority. The entire premise of BLM is black equality. Completely different concepts. One wants to rule others, while the other wants to be equal to others.

BLM has encouraged, and carried out murderous attacks on police officers. Is that how you promote "black equality"? Huh, who knew?

"Police Officer" is not a race. I cannot believe I have to tell you that.

No one has said I agree with BLM. In fact, I've made it quite clear I don't. But the claim it is as racist as the KKK is stupid and no sane person can say it with a straight face.

I see. Soooo, when BLM promotes, and carries out fatal attacks on white police officers, it's not racism. Got it. I guess I'm just old fashioned.

BLM isn't against white police officers, they are against the entire justice system. They have a problem with police officers and with the disparity in incarceration rates. Their position is that they are unfairly treated because of the color of their skin, which is quite different from the KKK which takes the position they are better than everyone else because of the color of their skin.

There's enough to dislike about how BLM works without having to resort mistruths. But to claim BLM is as racist as the KKK is asinine and for you to continue to do so suggests a very disturbing position which you might hold.
I guess I'm just old fashioned.
No, you just self-identify as conservative, which explains the lack of desire to comprehend nuanced and complex situations.
 
BLM isn't against white police officers, they are against the entire justice system.

Didn't bother reading the rest of your post. What's the point? :roll:
