Black Lives Matter failed to capture enough support, in my opinion.

This is a wonderful trolltastic headline, I can here some folks teeth grinding.

Ok, so first off, that’s a shitty thing to do, I don’t care what the race.

You know, there are times I don’t think I do enough with the fact that I own a sign shop.

since as a white male with both Jewish and Arab ancestry I actually know what it’s like to be fucking marginalized myself

It’s what I do. Or just tell people their word salad is confusing me.

Thank you for coming to The Roots comments and being example 2,831 on why black people are not trusting of white people who believe themselves to be allies. Because you got all in your feelings and wrote all of this to me instead of using the same internet to go to our good friend Google and finding out why White

This happens so often to black and brown people, but just like that white woman who was shot by police, this story will make it all over like it’s something new and unheard of. Honestly, sometimes the other side has to get the same treatment to see what someone else goes through. It’s life. Oh, well.

because of race not bad service.

I don’t get this site

Girl, go choke on a mandingo.
