Black Lives Matter on the Dallas shooter: It’s dangerous and irresponsible to assign the actions of one to a whole group

Black Lives Matter on the Dallas shooter: It’s dangerous and irresponsible to assign the actions of one to a whole group

Black Lives Matter issued a statement in the wake of the shootings in Dallas. It was entitled The Black Lives Matter Network advocates for dignity, justice, and respect.

Some parts of the statement could be challenged, like this part:

Black activists have raised the call for an end to violence, not an escalation of it.

Rev. Jeff Hood, a pastor in Dallas was a leader at the protest yesterday and appeared on The Kelly File last night. I don’t know if he is officially associated with BLM, but the lines are murky and he certainly asserts the ideology of BLM. He said that in hindsight he may have used some different language during the march.

Via a megaphone he gave a shout out to “an old preacher that [he admired] tremendously, Jeremiah Wright” to which the crowd responded positively, and in a very good channeling of Rev. Wright he said: “Goddamn white America, Goddamn white America…white America’s a f***ing lie. I’m sick of the bodies of black and brown people being slaughtered in our streets.” Watch it here on Fox. So, at least from my perspective I can’t say that was a real effective call to end the violence.
