I am all for police reform, especially a de-militarization of weapons, tactics, and mindset. However, you are wrong about BLM - if it were merely asking that police treat people like human beings, they would not insist that saying "all lives matter" is racist - and people have lost their jobs for saying those words.

BLM's website shows they are, in fact, enemies of capitalism and of the family, trained in Marxism, and very, very anti-white.
Socialism is, indeed, an economic concept - but its implementation somehow seems alsways to end with the state supressing individual liberty, as it requires forcible taking of the products of work precisely to give them to those who did not produce them.
If you are not free to use what your work has produced, you are not free.
I didn't mean to appear supportive of the organization Black Lives Matter, which has conflated a noble cause, fighting racism,with an ignoble one. I said BLM was solipsistic and sucked up the oxygen for everything and everyone else, promoted dehumanizing racial themes, were revolutionaries attacking reason, science, individual rights, private property, the freedom to speak our minds. I didn't the latter directly but thought it had been clear what I meant.Much of the ideology is impenetrably stupid and hateful. The woman who called CNN was not BLM and I do empathize with the law-abiding blacks, the human casualties of the BLM revolution, left behind to deal with the mayhem of riots, shoot outs and abolishing police.
