What do you think of the black lives matter movement? I think it's ironic that they're chanting that they want dead cops, but somehow they aren't inciting violence and when the shooting starts they all run for cover and expect the cops that they want dead to protect them. BLM is a terrorist organization that incite violence and are a bunch of hypocrites.

I couldn't disagree more. There are certain people who support the movement that also support the killing of cops, however most of the people involved in the BLM(from my personal experience) just want the equal treatment of Black people in America. BLM is not a terrorist organization. For example, the man who was killed for shooting those officers in Dallas clearly stated that he was NOT a part of BLM and did what he did for his own reasons. But this is just my opinion.

LTC David Brown - We have children being born because of the failure to use birth control, so the issue is birth control; which we can do something about by better sex education and stop relying on abstinence and religious ideology in reference to sex. Human like having sex and no matter what people think we need to accept that fact and work to ensure that those that have sex us birth control.

LTC David Brown - Perhaps because whites outnumber blacks by a large percentage. Your numbers aren't valid.

Saying Black Lives Matter doesn't mean White/Asian/(fill in the blank) don't matter, I'm not sure where people thought that BLM means that they're the ONLY lives that matter.

You'd asked "I'm not sure where people thought that BLM means that they're the ONLY lives that matter."
I'd say it comes from reactions like this when people say or post "All Live Matter" in a public forum:
http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/dec/9/smith-college-president-apologizes-for-email-sayin/
Or http://www.campusreform.org/?ID=7406.
There are dozens of other examples you will find if you do a quick Google search.
