Edited...because this barrage won't end until I explain my post...duh!

I do not mean all lives are equal. Obviously white lives are more important than POC in this country. So my point was that now that police are saying Blue lives matter...maybe NOW they get that all lives matter (meaning black lives matter as much as theirs do).

No...I'm not trying to say Black lives Don't matter. I was trying to stress that they do.

Forgive me for trying satire in a situation that couldn't handle it.

I fucked up. I should have known better.
