The movement is called "Black Lives Matter".

It is not "Only Black Lives Matter". Nor is it "Black Lives Matter More". That is because, for hundreds of years and until rather recently, black lives did NOT matter. Lynchings (and whites were lynched for daring to suggest that black lives mattered) have been a family picnic event in this country.

Everyone criticizing the name and saying "All Lives Matter" can go choke on something.

If this is ruled a suicide AND they say there is no surveillance video, expect unrest, violence, and more racist things like what has already been shown in this thread.
