Saeed, who says this? No one that I know of. To say that Black Lives matter is to say just that. Why should it even be necessary? Because in the past it seems that they haven't.Lynchings didn't end 200 years ago.
in 1955:
"made Emmett carry a 75-pound cotton-gin fan to the bank of the Tallahatchie River and ordered him to take off his clothes. The two men then beat him nearly to death, gouged out his eye, shot him in the head and then threw his body, tied to the cotton-gin fan with barbed wire, into the river."
To say that black lives matter is not to deny the disproportionate number of crimes committed by blacks. Or perhaps you are saying, that black lives don't matter until they fix that problem?!
