As much as I would like to believe that all lives matter, I realize saying some lives matter than others sells an agenda of hate and that is the end result the real haters want. But yes, all lives should matter.

The slogan "Black Lives Matter" does not mean that other lives don't matter. The slogan's purpose is to call attention to the activists' position that, to many, black lives don't matter. In other words, according to the activists, the fact that white lives matter to society is obvious and doesn't need to be said.
The above is not an endorsement for the Black Lives Matter movement. I'm just demonstrating that saying "Black Lives Matter" doesn't in itself imply that other lives don't.

Which has been popular on social media. Calling attention to a segment perceived to be under-appreciated.

No different is kind of a naive comparison. In slogan or translated to a Chinese person maybe they are the same. In agenda I don't think they could be any more different. That's what people are taking exception to. You are setting a bit of a straw man argument here because most understand what the term "Black Lives Matter" means. It's their message,method an the way they are inciting more racism that people have a problem with.

A straw man would be if I tried to prove a point by claiming BigCUFan believed something he doesn't, and then arguing against that thing.

Mentality even if that wasn't the original intent..it really should have been ALL lives matter to begin with..much easier to get behind when I'm not looked at as the bad guy because of my skin color or what I used to do as a profession as an officer.
I support that all lives matter except for muderers...rapists..people who abuse children or women or even men..looking at you Greg Hardy

You're straw man has seemingly taken the form of assuming that #alllivesmatter supporters don't understand that BLM and ALM are not mutually exclusive in the world of English grammar. You're arguing against a point no one is advancing (see: straw man) In the real world that we live in people have taken others lives as a result of black lives matter movement putting them directly at odds with the ethos of #alllivesmatter.

I think one critical difference between blue vs black lives matter is I saw videos of crowds chanting slogans that actually referenced support for the arbitrary killing of cops. I don't remember seeing the same for the others.

especially institutional racism no longer exists. In spite of overwhelming evidence which should enlighten them to the fact that it is still a problem, they get really offended and feisty when people point out that it does in fact exist in large parts of society.
I think this is a prime example of that.

Plenty of black people have good jobs and a steady family because they don't listen to that rap crap and call their wife a hoe. Other black people make fun of them and say they are trying to be white. Racism does exist on BOTH sides. A lot of blacks become a product of their environment and instead of cleaning up their own....they place blame on the white folks. All lives matter....drop the mic!

MLK Jr is rolling in his grave over the way these youngsters are acting. He never stood for violence, to stand back and protest a problem by inciting riots and calling for the death of someone bc of their skin color or profession is terrible and is perpetuating the same nonsense that you are protesting against.

You saying "White people like to...." Is racist.
The main problem with racism in this country is that the vast majority believe that white people are the only racist people in this country. EVERYONE in this country generalizes others at some point in their lives. EVERYONE can and will at some point be racist.

Or how about when the president spoke on the Trayvon Martin issue saying, "It could have been my son...." Meaning that Martin was killed for being black. Would the president have said that if a white boy was shot that night??? Of course not, the only reason he said that was because the victim here was black. The special attention crimes against blacks in Amercia are receiving is not only racist against white people, but all races other than black people.

That is a flat out idiotic false talking poing from msnbc. Real unemployment is worse than is was under Carter and full time employment is horrible.
Anyone that would vote for clinton deserves it, too bad the rest of America has to be involved. I understan your thoughts are tought from the left/socialist agenda and it is eating their own and it will unfortunately consume the entire country. The folk who think like you will have utopia, govt will control everything.......that is until another country come in and takes over.

For much of its history the NAACP has served as a force of political moderation and sought the laudable goal of an integrated society where people of color could reach their fullest human potential unhampered by discrimination. For most of its recent history, the NAACP has self-righteously designated itself the arbiter of who is and who is not a racist—even as it sponsors black racists. It past time for the NAACP to accept responsibility for its own extremism.

here is another example: America is the only country in the history of the world, at least that I know of, that has made special exceptions or laws to benefit minorities. (Affirmative action, minority scholarships, etc.) yet, we still have people believing that black people are at a "disadvantage" due to institutional racism. Give me a break.

You are the biggest racist on this board. I believe that everyone in this country should be heald accountable for their actions to the same degree of persecution.
I was born in 1985, so no, I have never seen a time when people were truly treated differently because of the color of their skin and the law did nothing about it, until now.
Cops being fired for wearing confederate flag underwear, but it's ok to have a neo-black Panther party with no repercussions. My how this is absurd.

It most definitely will not die since the NAACP knows they can make a #### ton of money fanning flames making sure it is alvie and well!
Mr Sharpton and Jackson have made a KILLING off their race baiting!

That is false but a quality retort /s
The only hatred I have is for racism and those who fuel the flames of it.
You seem to be one of those people.
You actually believe that the NAACP doesnt make money off of racism?

Many white people get all upset when black people speak out against obvious racism. Like you are doing now.
Black Lives Matter and others are drawing unwanted (by some whites) attention to institutional racism and it makes white people uncomfortable. That may not be a politically correct statement, but it is the truth.

Acknowledging racism gives it life. Until we all start holding ourselves accountable for our actions, and not blaming some intangible outside force, racism will stay alive.
Obama, sharpton, and Jackson have done nothing to show peace with both sides, all they do is acknowledge and promote the problem, giving it more fuel.

Do you not understand what I mean??? I'm saying that the only reason you believe racism is so prevalent is because you can your race card every chance you get.

### are you even talking about.
Your response has jack #### to do with my post.
FACT is the NAACP has done nothing but race bait and fan the flames since the Duke Lacrosse thing. Where they protested and marched until they ruined the lives of those guys.
Where were the racists from the NAACP after the guys were proven innocent? Oh yea they were gone. No "We are sorry" no nothing.
Your support of the NAACP shows you have no interest in getting rid of racism.

[ in reply to There are all sorts of racists in this world. But, perhaps ] |

The fact that minorities get scholarships with lower GPAs and SAT scores is racist against both the minorities and white students. Affirmative action is racist against everyone as well. The fact that the national media hasnt reported 1 single incident of police crimes on a white individual shows the bias AKA racism against whites. How about a few years ago in Tennessee when a young white couple was abducted by 4 black males and a black female and were raped, mutilated , and burned alive and it did not make the national media??? Can you imagine it not making the national news if the races were swapped in that scenario???
I guess you are going to tell me that the reason the crimes on white people dont make the news is because minorities are already at a disadvantage due to white racism against them so the crimes perpetrated against them seem more cruel. Which, in this case, makes you a racist.
No one can win in these race issues. If you take any side at all, you are a racist.

That might be the sorriest response on this entire thread. I find it disheartening to actual see BS like that typed on top of the originator actually believing his nonsense. It's a fact that Racism/Crime against Black people is caused 75% by Blacks and about 25% by other races combined. Want more #s, that's simple: Black Americans are approx. 17% of the U.S. population, yet commit over 50% of all crime, facts stink when they don't support your claims.

Black lives matter until you want to talk about the 99% of the black lives that are taken by other black people. Gang violence is really what people need to be protesting if they want to make a change.

disrespectful to point out that the only reason black lives matter is because all lives matter, and to challenge the notion, upon which the movement is largely based, that the deaths of the likes of Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, Freddy Gray, etc., are not the result of black lives not mattering, or that the whole premise of black lives not mattering is greatly exaggerated if not altogether false.

Obviously all lives should matter. And I do believe most of the marches are for attention. Reason being the only time you see marches and protests is if a black person is killed by a cop. Fact around 6000 blacks are killed by blacks every year. Thats 17 per day. There are no marches or protest over this fact. If black lives matter, there should be. Just a thought.

black lives only care about black lives
Nov 12, 2015, 1:39 PM

When it's the white man putting them down..when its black lives and black power murdering in Chicago nobody cares..there was a little boy who was murdered in an alleyway by a gang member because his dad was affiliated with a rival gang..the kid was only 8 or 9...
And they dont care about rights of other minorities..there's a YouTube video where a journalist (asian america who goes to school there and was trying to get a story and was on the same public property the mizzou concernedstudent1950 people were and they were forcefully moving him off public property.
So to me..it either matters all of the time or none of the time ..and it should matter all of the time..it makes me mad with a president from Chicago and Athletes with alot of influence do nothing to try and stop gang violence..but sure..go wear a shirt or a hoody saying black lives matter because thats easy..but speaking out against black on black crime is hard..sorry ..rant over

You don't have to dig deep to find that the accounts that drove this were made up. I'm not really sure what you're standing with them on. Against racism? That is noble, but it doesnt not take a hoax to do that. This is like standing with the Duke Lacrosse accuser because your against domestic violence.

Now this is becoming silly. I am moderate and lean slightly liberal. This is getting silly imo. I think accountability went out the window years ago.

Hostile crowd at a place where ranked teams have lost before.
I also hope we get out to an early lead so out backups can get some valuable game experience.

Sorry but I'm over this black lives Matter movement. Just seems to stir everything up more between people. Like everyone already knows there is more black on black crime than white on black crime. Touchy subject....not sure if this movement will make things worse or better. Don't see many Hispanics or Asians causing such an uproar. Oh wait there was maximum Mexican night at Clemson .....forgot about that.....

The comments in this thread are exactly what I expected. Not surprised in the least bit. Don't even know why someone would bother posting stories like this on this website.

I don't understand why anybody would post this here either. There is no explainable reason to. Cannot we be happy with our wonderful tradition at Clemson University to recognize that we all matter, no matter who we are? Right now we should be enjoying the fact that our University is very strong academically and in our football program. We are number one! Why should anybody want to put us down?

length to make their point. While they should all be studying to improve their own lives, these race baiters incite them to protest made up events. What a productive way to live.
They will end up destroying one of the major pathways to getting an education...

IMO this is nothing more than continued bullchit. I find it odd that none of the other races on the planet seem to have issues like the Black race. You don't hear daily how Asians, Chinese, American Indians, India Indians, Russians, Germans, Italians, Aussies, etc (basically EVERY non-Black race) having issues like the Black race does. Anyone want to explain that? I'm so tired of hearing the effing whining and moaning and bitc-hing that it is sickening to keep hearing it. And all the cops and Whites that are killed by Blacks doesn't seem to even be noticed. What the #### is up with that? Obama doesn't have any White sons I guess. And I'm sure that dumbazz Sharpton or Jessie Jackson don't give a chit about any White people. Those two a-holes have a specific agenda of race-baiting.
As for me - I have plenty of Black friends, and for whatever reason - we all just get along fine. I have one Black friend that I have seen for over 12 years, and I plan to drive 50+ miles to take him to dinner within the next few weeks. And - I've looked forward to doing just that for a while. I just don't understand why some people just have to perpetuate this race thing. I have worked with so many Blacks in my life and have almost no bad experiences with them. I simply cannot fathom the hatred that some Blacks must have to continue this effort. Maybe if my forefathers were slaves, I might understand, but IMO it is just imagined by many. The opportunities are there for EVERYONE - not just for non-Blacks. I'm not sure why they don't just lay down their swords and strive for peace.

it would be a terrible thing but if our Tigers start this

Crap, I'd vote to give them one day and then terminate every single scholarship of students that don't show for the next football event. At some point the country and standing up for what is right is more important than a national championship.

The best thing to do is to ignore this kind of thing. That is why we are such a strong force. Clemson stands right up there academically with the best of the best. Clemson football is something to celebrate every day! We are number one! Don't even post this negative stuff. This is Tiger Net. We don't need that kind of stuff here. This is where champions come from! We have really smart students and we have really great football players who are great students and wayyyyyyy above average coaches! Let's enjoy these times right now and cut the negative out!!!!!!

Very good post. Why do we even have to start this negative stuff. We are having the best season that we have had in numerous decades. Let's just enjoy what we have going for us. Our University does not compare to UMO in any way. We have great academics, great athletics, coaches,Professors Administration, facilities. Let's celebrate! Yay! The Best of the Best, Clemson University~

All those students should be expelled. They make the University, and Alumni, look like fools.
