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

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 think you might not be seeing the forest for the trees. The name of the organization is... get this.
Black (as in JUST African Americans)
Lives
Matter
An African American priveledged community organizer working for the above organization SHOT HIMSELF to death.
If I worked for MADD and then got wasted and crashed my vehicle into a telephone pole and killed myself INTENTIONALLY, would I be unclassy to link a story pointing out the irony in that?

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.Quote:

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.Quote:

tl;dr
ZFG
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.Quote:

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.Quote:

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.
Oh I'm not asking for any sympathy.
I just came in here to post about someone we can all hope dies of a bullet wound asap.
