Or for the click - a - link - lazy, here's the whole read.

Awww. The Washington Post is all choked up  because a leader of the Black [Criminals’] Lives Matter movement chose to beat the hangman to the finish line.

The Post is too discreet to mention howMarShawn McCarrel offed himself, but NBC News says he shot himself in the head with a handgun, having come to the conclusion that his own Black Life didn’t matter. Who are we to argue with that?

Still, let’s eavesdrop on the morose miasma that’s the Post’s article about the late MarShawn.

A solemn group stood in the shadow of the statehouse in Columbus, Ohio, forming a circle on the snow-caked sidewalk. MarShawn McCarrel, 23, a well-known Black Lives Matter activist, had taken his own life on the statehouse steps. Now his friends had come together in his memory.

You would think that this would make his soi-disant friends reminisce about what was so great in MarShawn’s short life, but, ah, no. Instead, they all seem to be competing for the I Am The Next Most Depressed consolation prize, since MarShawn walked away with the I Am The Most Depressed trophy — Number One with a bullet.

As evening turned to night last week, protest organizer Rashida Davison, 25, recounted the personal toll of two years of activism: Trouble sleeping. Bouts of anxiety. Feelings of despair.

“As evening turned to night,” saints preserve us. Has anyone put that reporter on suicide watch yet?

“This is really getting to us,” Davison said. “And if MarShawn’s death does not show that… I don’t know what else we need to tell or show to say that this is really going on.”

Since he died early last week, news of McCarrel’s suicide has rocked the national police protest movement, forcing a round of introspection about a reality that predates the seminal 2014 shooting of a black teenager in Ferguson, Mo.: Some of the most prominent activists and organizers are battling not only the system, but depression.

via ‘My demons won today’: Ohio activist’s suicide spotlights depression among Black Lives Matter leaders – The Washington Post.

Raise your hands if you are surprised to find that “youth leaders” lionized in the press are “battling” mental illness. Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Yep, it’s not about the Unique And Special Snowflake® who just offed himself to Show Them All some inconsequential thing or other about his inconsequential life, but about theother Unique And Special Snowflakes® left behind and their attention-seeking whinging.

In Oakland, Calif., a prominent activist posted the phone number for a suicide prevention hotline on her Facebook page.

Now, there’s bold action, 2016 style: she fearlessly posted to Facebook. Somewhere in the Afterlife, Sophie Scholl is agog at this “activist’s” courage.

You “anti-police activists” are aware, aren’t you, that what happens if you call the “suicide prevention hotline” is this: they send the police?How typical for parasites shielded by the very order the police help produce to attack the organism of that order. But she was the only one, right?

Er, no.

In Cleveland, a lead organizer confessed on Facebook that he, too, had tried to take his own life.

No more competent at that than at holding a job in the productive economy, eh, kid?

Dozens of others have shared stories of their battles with depression, anxiety and insecurity on Twitter.

Wait, we thought the black community wasunder attack from the police. (None of the black people we know are under attack from the police, but perhaps they’re exceptional eh? A lot of them are soldiers, vets and police. The rest of them just work for a living like all the other white, yellow, red, brown and “kind of a mix” folks).

Note also that this movement isn’t poor, hand-to-mouth, subsistence-working black folks. It’s 1%er, parents are professionals, full-boat-scholarship black folks.

“In the movement you’re just constantly engaging in black death, seeing the communal impact,” said Jonathan Butler, the University of Missouri graduate student whose hunger strike last fall led to the resignation of the school’s president. “You’re being faced with the reality that I’m more likely to be killed by the police, that I’m being discriminated against. You start to see all of the micro-aggressions.”

Oh, micro-aggressions. Lord love a duck. Let’s explain something. When a black kid is beating a guy’s head against a sidewalk and collects a life-ending slug, there wasn’t anything micro about what he was doing. When a black guy beats up a little Indian dude to steal from him and then attacks a police officer, his very, very macro aggression was the single biggest cause of a gizzard full of lead — and these two supposed injustices are the foundational myth of the Black Lives Matter movement.

Like many prominent activists, Butler said he has long struggled with depression.

Aw, little spoiled scholarship kid. Every blue collar American would play the violin for you, if he had ever had time off from work to learn the freakin’ violin.

His involvement with the protest movement at times has worsened his mental health…

Yeah, we’ve been observing that about these “protesters” for a while. Most of them seem to be a few credits short of a Grievance Studies degree.

….not only because of the emotional strain of a single-minded focus on racism….

Wait, wait, wait. Who’s focusing single-mindedly on that particularly toxic “ism”? Would the answer to that question be, “You and your professors,” by any chance?

…but also because of more mundane stresses, such as media scrutiny and infighting among allies.

Oh, media scrutiny. Jesus H. Christ. These loopy protesters have had the media in their pocket for two years now. Media scrutiny is when they go through your trash for your financial statements and rent the house next door so they can set up telephoto lenses into your bathroom.

Dante Barry, executive director of Million Hoodies Movement for Justice, a New York-based activist group, [said] “Organizing saves people’s lives. But we also don’t do a good job of saving the lives of the people who are organizing.”

Frankly, apart from the meaningless distinction of skin color, how are all these would-be organizers and activist “executive directors” different from the filthy trustafarian hippies of the Occupy movement?

And how is the world better off for their existence, or worse off for their passing?

If they all kept threatening to, and did MarShawn themselves, would anybody miss them?

“It’s really tough in the black community because we’re going uphill trying to fight all of these negative stereotypes about us, and the last thing a lot of black people want to do is give people one more reason to look down on us,” said Monnica Williams, director of the Center for Mental Health Disparities….

We’re not making this up: Misspelled “Monnica” is the head of something at a university that studies how blacks are crazier than other folks, and how it’s all whitey’s fault. And she’s trying to fight the negative stereotypes that provide her meal ticket.

Monnnnnica, dear, we don’t “look down on … black people.” We look down on you and the other Black Criminals’ Lives Matter activists. And “we” includes a lot of black non-activist, non-criminals, non-Unique And Special Snowflakes™.

So if you won’t kill yourself, just get over yourself.

If i had a suicide hotline child he'd look like.










Not taking away from the seriousness of depression or other issues one faces in their daily life.

I saw somewhere that there are actually very few black suicides. Most of the deaths that look like suicides were actually murders by white people made to look like a suicide. Especially hanging deaths. No black man has ever hung himself. Any black man found hanging from a rope was lynched.

Stopped reading after they trashed the guy for the fifth or sixth time. A guy disagrees with you politically, so you openly mock his suicide and life? Whoever wrote this is a bigger pile of shit than any of the "activists" I've seen so far. While writing this reply, I can see a tidbit that says, "We're not making this up: Misseplled "Monnica" (a name can't be misspelled, you ass) is the head of something at a university that studies how blacks (who talks like that?) are crazier than other folks, and how it's all whitey's fault....we don't look down on black people. We look down yon you and other Black Criminals' Lives Matter activists. And "we" includes a lot of black non-activist, non-criminals, non Unique and Special Snowflakes."

Now the article has a picture of some black dude at the top looking smug. So I'm not sure if that's the author, and he's just some self-hating type that's happy to give racists pacification, or if this is a white author that really doesn't give a shit about having common decency, since clearly the only negro that doesn't tow his line worth anything is a dead one.

I read the authors blog, he's a former 18B in the U.S. Army. Definitely isn't one for political correctness, or believing the current social woes for minorities are solely brought upon them from outsiders, or the wrongs of the 1800's.

I personally feel that suicide is a cowards way out. BUT if your going to do it at least have the decency to leave a note, and do it in the safety and comfort of your own home.

The current disease of Well to do, affluent, lazy Americans screaming for justice IS laughable. I realize some people get very touchy over suicide, and perhaps it is NOT a laughing matter. The Left constantly mocks, berates, belittles, and tramples on their opposition. I guess I just found it Ironic that a Black Lives Matter guy didn't actually believe his groups motto.
If your feelings or sensibilities were hurt by reading this than I guess I don't know what to say.

It's no surprise to me that these "ones we've been waiting for" activists are completely dysfunctional in their own lives. I've witnessed it first hand multiple times.

Both my wife and I have cousins that are big Dems and activists. One of them is 40+, lives in his parents basement, and is an addict. Can't keep a job although he is capable. His parents are well off and gave him every advantage (he spent seven years trying to get a BA at various schools around the country). But he knows that I shouldn't keep my paycheck and must atone for my white privilege (I grew up lower middle class).

The other one worked for a big Dem politician. Went to an amazing school at a cost around $160K (parents paid it). He now works a service sector job when he's not on a campaign. I have nothing against people who work in the service sector, just pointing out the bad life choices. Lots of other stuff too I won't post. He is very smart and could be very successful but choses to invest his time taking success away from others.

If I woke up and found out either one of them committed suicide it would not surprise me in the least. Not saying I want that to happen, of course, just saying it's almost expected.

Sorry guys, it's just shitting on people who've committed suicide and trying to link that action to a political affiliation that isn't agreed with. Anyone up for making fun of Michelle Obama's looks? Let's get this trash party started!

Just one person. Not people. The BLM movement is based on Trayvon Martin, and Michael Brown. They are holding those 2 ex- thugs up as representative of non whites and Law Enforcement. It's a bogus claim based on a false narrative.

Why would you? His suicide had nothing to do with him hating Jews.

Remember when what's his face tv station owner said he was glad that veterans were killing themselves and that it was evidence that they were feeling guilty about having participated in the war? Saying that BLM people killed themselves (I think two were mentioned in this thread) because of the kind of people they were to be involved with the BLM movement is just as stupid as believing vets should kill themselves for having been in war.
There are a hundred things to criticize about the Black Lives Matter movement, but laughing at suicides is no different than gun grabbers clamoring over freshly dead children to further their cause, or reporters cashing in on grieving families to get stories. Maybe members here aren't that classy, but I always thought they were.

I guess I didn't and don't see the authors viewpoint as distasteful, or immoral, or wrong. It just seems to make sense to me. He points out that there isn't a real reason for these activists to be upset in the first place, (I personally believe there is an overwhelming amount of evidence and facts to back this up), and that a decent amount of them are criminals or associates of same. The suicide and the title are what they are. The BLM's premise is that the "man" is out to get them, that Cops are out to shoot them, and that they can't catch a break.

It occurs to me that if you act and dress the part, or actively engage in criminal activity you are FAR more likely to be a bullet sponge.

I guess I don't see what your beef is. I'm a reasonable person. I've changed my opinions before. Enlighten me. But as of now I don't see what is offensive about the article. Maybe I'm a lost cause.

I think we're looking at this from 2 different perspectives. You're seeing him as a human being who maybe needed some help. I see him as a sub-human racist just like Hitler and I'm glad he is dead.

You don't see what my beef is because you're focusing on the article, and I'm talking about our members seeming to cheer about someone they don't like (who they never even knew existed until the moment they read this thread) killed himself. I do think the article is stupid, and the author went out of his way to stretch a one sentence news brief into a full article full of snide bullshit; but that's besides the point.

Hitler earned any amount of scorn that any and everyone can throw at him. This guy that killed himself could have been a total piece of trash, but we don't know that. The worst thing we know about was that he was an activist of a group with which we don't believe. It's even a stretch to assume he's racist, but I'm not going to argue that because a lot of the anger stirred up by these activists is done so with racist feelings (whether intentional or not), in my opinion. Just seems shitty to me to say it's a good thing this guy is dead given the ONLY thing we know about him is that he was an activist. Hitler, yes, whats-his-face that robbed a store and attacked a cop, sure, Martin that assaulted whats-his-other-face, okay; but this guy? It's a stretch and it makes us sound like a bunch of assholes as a group, and I only care because I don't think we're a bunch of assholes. I love my little brother, but when he's acting like an asshole, I tell him. No different here.

Is there an amount of tragedy in a suicide? Yes. Granted. It's effects are most certainly felt by family and friends.

Now for the "but".

As it's been pointed out the so-called "victim" here is not only living a lie but spreading falsehoods, lies and a certain amount of hatred about otherwise good people. So while I may feel some sympathy to the friends/family of the "victim", I'm not personally going to mourn the loss. This person is going out of their way to disparage otherwise good people based on lies, for the most part. They are not doing good for society as a whole. As a matter of fact they are promoting an agenda that does at least as much harm as it does good.

To that I say "good riddance". And, I believe the death of Michael Brown was a blessing to society.

I don't appreciate you putting words in my mouth. At no point did I say I welcomed Libs offing themselves or celebrated it but it's no surprise.

I do think there is a correlation between mentally unstable people and folks who think fancy themselves our betters. It's one thing to think highly of oneself or believe they are superior, but another thing entirely to reach into other people's lives and tell us what we can think/say, what we can own, how we can raise their children, etc, etc, etc... This is what modern Liberals believe and their actions demonstrate this to us on a daily basis.

I don't think it's hard to see the psychopathy in that belief system. Having a thoughtful conversation about it, even if we disagree, shouldn't be a problem.
