| Former Maryland Gov. O'Malley Apologizes For Saying '€˜All Lives Matter' |
| 2015-07-19 |
| [Daily Caller] Former Maryland Gov. and Democratic Party presidential candidate Martin O'Malley, along with fellow candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, were shouted off stage at the Netroots Nation conference in Phoenix, Ariz., Saturday. O'Malley's offense was saying, "Black lives matter, white lives matter, all lives matter." O'Malley has now apologized for including "white lives matter, all lives matter" in his statement. The Black Lives Matter movement on the extreme progressive left does not tolerate inclusion of all lives, or any other lives when it comes to mattering. Appearing on the Internet based "This Week In Blackness," or TWiB Nation, host L. Joy Williams excoriated O'Malley for his insensitivity for including "white lives" and "all lives" in his statement. The former governor did not repeat the phrases, he referred to them as "those other two phrases." |

| #10 Some snowflakes indulge in mad chatter; Some flatter themselves that they matter, But all, by their nature, Are stuck in the glacier, Unmindful that soon it must shatter. |

| #8 Former governor. The governorship went Republican last election. It was the "rain tax" that pushed the state over the edge. Ever notice how blacks (12 or 13 percent of the population) refer to "blacks and hispanics (17 percent)" when they want something? But saying "all lives matter" dilutes the statement. |

| #7 So, if I lived in Maryland, my life would not matter to the governor, because I am white? |

| #5 My life matters. A few other people also think that my life matters. Your life may matter to you and yours, I don't know. I am an individual not a member of a tribe, race, ethnicity or any other group in any way that matters. If this offends you, good. Now go pound sand and leave me alone. |
