Here's a few of their "leaders" bothering Hillary Clinton, who had to talk to them separately to keep them from hijacking one of her speeches.

"I stand here in your space and I say this as respectfully as I can, 'If you don't tell black people what we need to do, then we won't tell you all what to do,' " Jones said. "What I mean to say is, this is and has always been a white problem of violence. There's not much that we can do to stop the violence against us."

"Respectfully," Clinton answered, "if that is your position, then I will only talk to white people about how we are going to deal with these very real problems."

"That's not what I mean," Jones said. He added, "But what you just said was a form of victim blaming."


The organizer here is an unemployed 23 year old who is pretty much everything wrong with SJW movements.
According to her own page: Daunasia Yancey is an African-American, aggressive-femme lesbian, sexual health educator, poet and activist, born and raised in Boston, MA. Daunasia has worked for several Boston area non-profits, including the Boston Alliance of GLBT Youth (BAGLY), Fenway Health and Boston GLBT Adolescent Social Services (GLASS). She previously served on the Boards of Directors of BAGLY and the National Youth Advocacy Coalition (NYAC). She is currently taking time off from pursuing an (expensive) degree in Public Health while continuing to change the world.

Then there's Julius Jones, the speaker in the above video. A man who is completely out to lunch when it comes to how other people feel about things.
“What was most shocking to me about the reactions to the Bernie Sanders shutdown was the amount of rage from progressive white people for two African-American women who were standing up for what they believe in. The reaction was gross,” -- Julius Jones, founder of the Black Lives Matter chapter in Worcester, Massachusetts.
Seriously, if he can't figure out why someone might be upset when a group of random yahoos disrupts a planned event that has nothing to do with them, he needs help. There's a time and a place for non-violent protest, and that was not it.

It's like walking into Mcdonalds, demanding a Whopper, then preventing everyone else in line from ordering because you demand to have a Whopper. If you want a Whopper, go find a Burger King, and stop bugging people who want to go to Mcdonalds.

I decided to search for a place where BLM supporters congregate to see whether or not the negative view most users here have toward them is justified. I figured there will be a BLM subreddit, here's what I found when looking at their main page:

You must be invited to visit this community
r/BlackLivesMatter

We are not the BLM. We are a sub aggregating links about BLM.
What do we have to do with BLM organization/media or the events in Seattle? Nothing. In fact, most of us are voting for Bernie or Jill Stein. Surprise.
Before you come at us shrieking about what "we" did to Bernie, stop, eat a Snickers, put your pitchforks and torches down and act like you have some sense.
We will reopen the sub when the brigade stops. You all should be ashamed.
-BLM team. All of whom live very far from Seattle.
The moderators of this subreddit have set it to private. You must be a moderator or approved submitter to visit.

These people seem reasonable. I decided to look for earlier versions of the subreddit's front page on archive.is, hoping that there were versions saved before the subreddit became private. Unfortunatley there were none, but I was displeased with the earliest version (9 August 2015) of the page that is available:

You must be invited to visit this community
r/BlackLivesMatter

Fuck Bernie Sanders
The moderators of this subreddit have set it to private. You must be a moderator or approved submitter to visit.

This doesn't make their moderators look good to say the slightest. I am however still willing to give the benefit of the doubt to the movement as a whole unless being shown more compelling evidence that all of them are dumbasses.

The easiest way to make BLM supporters mad is to tell the truth

White people are the biggest victims of racism

They can say whatever they want about us, but the second we criticise a black person in any way, we're 'racists' and 'bigots'
 
A-Am I agreeing with Connor? I think I need a shower.

... But, in all seriousness, they seem like slightly more vocal SJWs that just spout their nonsense rhetoric and entitlement irl as opposed to on Tumblr. Anything you say about the special snowflake Tumblrinas could probably relate just as well to these morons. They're kinda on the cusp of being lolcows, but honestly my only issue is that they're basically SJWs that won't shut up about being black instead of being trans.
 
One thing I've noticed with the flag stomping bullshit Black Lives Matter does is their stupid fist pump.

I see no difference between this:

And this:

Honestly, Black Lives Matter should make their official motto "Heil Fuhrer Sharpton."

Okay, so I hate to defend nonsense (so I'm not happy that you made me do so), but the "fist pump" (really? you had no other words for it?) has been a symbol for solidarity for decades. It was popularized in the 60s, and even mainstream feminists (aka not batshit sjw spergs) use it.

Also, comparing them to Hitler makes you look ridiculous.

ETA: THAT SAID, I don't necessarily agree with them stomping on, setting fire to, and (sometimes literally) shitting on American flags. Just wanted to clarify my position. I don't necessarily agree with their actions, but your argument was getting a bit silly.
