'Blue lives don't matter,' pro-BLM UC Irvine protesters say

The University of California, Irvine Black Student Union held a protest Friday calling for a total and complete ban on the UC Irvine Police Department.

The protest was in response to UC Irvine’s “New Narratives” forum, where LAPD Chief Charlie Beck was leading a talk on police brutality and race. According to the website, the event is designed to “bring together leading scholars and innovative practitioners to define the problem, identify challenges, and discuss possible solutions to [police brutality.]”

UC Irvine’s Black Student Union evidently wanted nothing to do with this.

Protesters held blood-spattered signs that said “Blue Lives Don’t Matter,” “Police Kill the Mentally Ill,” and “Fuck the Police.” In a video obtained by Campus Reform, protestors can be heard chanting “Rise up, resist, put those killer cops in jail, the whole damn system is guilty as hell,” as they marched around campus.

Additionally, Black Student Union activists called for their peers to sign a petition demanding that UC Irvine ban the campus police department. Protesters also called for the immediate firing of LAPD Chief Beck on the grounds of “police brutality.”

On the official event Facebook page, organizers even decided to sell official Black Student Union “Fuck the Police” shirts and sweatshirts to wear to the protest.

“This protest was misguided and ignorant in every sense of the word,” Robert Petrosyan, Chairman Emeritus of the UCI College Republicans, told Campus Reform. “The Black Student Union protested an event held in response to their own concern about police brutality, and provided a real opportunity for direct dialogue with the police. However, what this event demonstrated was that dialogue was not what they wanted.”

Petrosyan and others tried to engage members of the protest in a discussion about the issues, and were met only with “anger and hateful chants.”

“They openly advocate to ban the police at UC Irvine despite the fact that there was no case of police brutality on campus that they could point to, and they perpetuate myths of the Black Lives Matter movement that only lead to more trouble for those living in those neighborhoods,” Petrosyan continued. “Black Lives do matter, as do Blue Lives and all lives. And when people die as a result of riots, looting, or under-policing coming from the black lives matter movement, those lives matter too.”

He should have stopped and listened, instead of moving to his car and reaching inside

[Hugh_Janus]

they had a taser... why did they wait until he reached into the car before discharging it and shooting him? :shrug:

[Hugh_Janus]

btw, not defending the dude, he should have listened, but he shouldn't be dead

Probably true, but these are the kind of things that will happen when an officer feels threatened. The shooter got charged with felony manslaughter though

I'm just about ready...:nana:

If I'm not mistaken she's claiming she had audio exlusion.

And I can tell you from experience, it's real, and can happen.

But from what I've seen in that video, she panicked when she heard the tazer pop, and shot him. Ill trained and frightened.

Mel, you gotta understand a couple of things here.

A. The asshole cops you speak of, make up like 1 in 1,000. The sad part is, they make the good guys look like shit.

B. As for cops shooting black people, the only reason, and I mean the only fking reason you're seeing this, is because it's a hot button issue. The fact is, more whites are killed by cops by a factor of two fold vs blacks or any other race. News media is trying to incite a race war, because violence sells, and they need money. Why? Because paper media is deader than a fking door nail.

The fact remains. How many black people were killed by cops in 2015? 258 How many whites killed by cops? 495.

Why do the blacks complain? Because news media pulls shit like this.

To the average moron who has a reading comprehension comparable to that of a two year old, that looks like blacks are disproportionately killed by cops, but they aren't. It's media driving that fking wedge hoping for a war.

Facts, blacks committed 67% of the murders that took place in the USA in 2015, and since 2001, blacks have killed almost 6,000 other blacks.

Where's the fking media coverage for that?

Turns out the autopsy showed he was high on PCP as well

I take your point.

Perhaps the statistic that we need is the proportion of blacks killed vs whites - once law enforcement officials engage them (not vs population, which disfavours blacks as they get into trouble more)

I've heard US police have lower standards to get into the force. I confess this is anecdotal - perhaps it could be certain areas or stations that have 'bad seeds'

best line on this issue: Police killed very few women this year, but no one argues that law enforcement is sexist

The whole article is informative... http://www.nationalreview.com/article/429094/black-lives-matter-wrong-police-shootings

So why aren't the correct(ed) statistics reported?

Because they don't fit the narrative, but they are out there. "Adjusted for criminality" has been viciously attacked as irrelevant and further proof of a racist system.

I'll post them when I have some time.
