| Poll: More African Americans prefer the term “all lives matter” over the term “black lives matter” |
| 2020-06-23 |
The silent, sensible portion of the populace is much larger than current screeching suggests. [LawEnforcementToday] While the slogan "Black Lives Matter" is seemingly being shoved down everyone’s throats at every turn, whether it’s logging on to Facebook, or your Fitbit app, or emails, the slogan is not quite as popular as the more inclusive "All Lives Matter", according to a Rasmussen survey of 1,000 likely voters.Interestingly, as reported in Breitbart, the poll showed that this was true even among African Americans, with 47 percent choosing "All Lives Matter," while 44 percent of that same demographic chose "Black Lives Matter." The poll, which was conducted on June 15-16 asked respondents: "Which statement is closest to your own?" "Black Lives Matter" was picked by 30 percent of voters, including 35 percent of voters under age 40, and 63 percent of liberals. "All Lives Matter" was picked by 59 percent of all voters, 58 percent of swing-voters, and 56 percent of "moderate" voters. Among the wealthy elite, who can afford their own private security and aren’t worried about the organization called Black Lives Matter’s call to abolish the police, 53 percent of people who earn above $200,000 chose "Black Lives Matter" while just 34 percent of people earning less than $30,000 picked backed it. Broken down along educational lines, only 22 percent of high school graduates picked "Black Lives Matter," however 41 percent of people with professional degrees, who received four years of indoctrination by liberal college professors picked "Black Lives Matter." Along approval or disapproval of the president, 55 percent of people who disapprove of President Trump prefer "Black Lives Matter," however 63 percent of people who "somewhat" approve or disapprove of the president prefer "All Lives Matter." Political ideology shows a wide partisan gap. Seventy-seven percent of conservatives prefer "All Lives Matter," while 63 percent of liberals prefer "Black Lives Matter." Twenty-nine percent of liberals prefer "All Lives Matter." Interestingly, Democrats were pretty evenly split. Forty-six percent backed "Black Lives Matter," while 48 percent prefer "All Lives Matter." More breakdowns can be seen at the link, for those interested. |

| #11 "Investigating". Rhetorical question: And the crime is...? |

| #10 UK "police" are investigating and the "B"BC are aghast as someone flew a White Lives Matter sign over a TaliBLM event at the start of football match (where blacks (all millionaires) are seriously over-represented) |

| #8 If blacks are tired of being discriminated against then eliminate the term "african - American". You are either African or American not both. |

| #7 Blacks known that BLM is socialist. Idiot white liberals do not know this, or they approve. If it were phrased differently "All Blacks Matter" thus divorcing the question from the police vs BLM battle they might get a higher response. |

| #6 Only the racist, white liberals like the BLM term. |

| #5 I see problems in the Bl*ck communities similar to those in the mooselimb ones. Most folks just want to have shelter, find a mate, feed their families and live without stress. If they say anything that interferes with the area radicals' rantings, they are threatened or worse. |

| #2 Gotta prevent the fraud, though. They must really be convinced that the fix is in to let the masks fall like this. And they've had four years to work on the kinks in their system. |
