Nowadays folks are just looking for any reason to protest and act a fool. This individual and the particular circumstances surrounding his death is not worth anyone's time or effort. WE gotta stop supporting stupidity in our community.
Serious question...
Why, as black people, do we have to be reasonable and logical in times like this?
Most of middle America will denigrate black people when things like this, justified or not. They jump to conclusions faster than an Usain Bolt 100m dash.
Middle America is never asked to be reasonable... But black people are. Black people have to hold the burden of being logical.

Because being unreasonable makes it easier to delegitimize and dismantle a group that advocates for minority grievances.
People of all races and creeds, whether they are Americans or foreigners (long or short term visitors) recognize the problem of policing that exists in America. They recognize that BLM has a reason to exist. However, every instance of BLM defending known criminals just because of their race undermines the movement's purpose.
The unfortunate reality of policing in the USA is that there is a gun in circulation for every person living here; if the people want to keep the power to kill, the police needs to have that same power in order to effectively enforce laws. Instead of supporting every black person that is killed by the police (no matter what they did), BLM would gain many more hearts and minds if they defended legitimate victims of police abuse, no matter what they look like.

Excellent response, but I wholeheartedly disagree with this.
I feel you on everything else doe
the minute we start parsing through and deciding who was "justified" and who wasnt we've already lost
once we start judging who's worthy and whos not we have divided ourselves to be conquered
Lot of good points being made in here but I feel no way about incidents like the riots. You can't antagonize a group of ppl for centuries & expect them to be rational at every turn. Ppl are fed up and whatever comes to the catalyst (white america) is on them

In your avy, have you ever noticed Hov doesn't press a floor button when he gets on the elevator?LOL. You keep thinking that champ. Right is right and wrong is wrong. Folks nowadays want to somehow justify wrong or make it seem like doing wrong is okay....which it is not. At the end of the day this ***** had it coming, simple as that. You can't just commit a crime and expect for there not to be any consequences. If he didn't know that beforehand he and his family certainly know now.

Yes indeed champ. Certain things are just AUTOMATIC for certain people. Same for me when I go inside Eastern Market here in DC.....I don't have to say anything, they just make my sandwich for me the way I like without me moving a finger. It's called FAVOR.
ill err on the side of them never being justified vs always being justified
It's so sad that the BLM been labeled as a terrorist group because of the acts of black people. It's to the point where sometimes you can't even argue about BLM being peaceful

It was going to be labeled that anyway, Cointel Pro 201X. BLM didn't have a solid foundation, which allowed people to infiltrate it and do things in it's name or even be tied to it in the media. The founders don't go out and publicly deny the crap being tied to the movement, etc. Use the media to their advantage, etc. Gotta come smarter and harder when battling a system of this magnitude.
