No, she would prefer people said only "black lives matter".
But, if all "black lives matter", why aren't blacks in an uproar over the killings of blacks by blacks in inner cities like Chicago and Detroit? It's because of blatant hypocrisy, that's why. "Black lives matter" only when they're killed by white police officers, apparently. She never mentions the hundreds, perhaps thousands (I don't know the number), of blacks killed by blacks in the hood and elsewhere. And "black lives matter" certainly isn't the case when the black person killed is a police officer: Officer Kevin Jordan was killed by a white man earlier this year in Georgia. I don't recall ever hearing his name mentioned by Obama (guess Officer Jordan didn't look like a son Obama might've had) or Holder. I don't recall Sharpton or Jackson mentioning his name either. As someone else stated, apparently Officer Jordan was on the wrong side of the Thin Blue Line.
I find that statement quite contradictory. So, apparently, all lives DON'T matter if you're willing to kill in self-defense. Which is basically what I said except that I said I could kill a terrorist and not feel any remorse whatsoever...because to me the life of a terrorist doesn't matter at all.
