Mizzou protesters, Black Lives Matter complain Paris attacks stole their headlines

Activists that have taken over U.S. college campuses this week protesting racial injustice took to Twitter last night to complain that news coverage of the deadly terrorist attacks in Paris had stolen their spotlight.

Black Lives Matter and Mizzou protesters on Twitter said their struggles with racial oppression were being “erased” by the overwhelming news coverage of the murder of scores of people at the hands of Islamic State extremists.

“Racist white people kill me, you want everyone to have sympathy for YOUR tragedy, but you have none for ours,” one user tweeted, adding “#Mizzou.”

“Disgusted @ white conservative Americans using Paris as a ‘see black people, your woes here w/ us could be more extreme,’ but not surprised,” another user tweeted.

Many protesters, including Black Lives Matter national leaders, said the racial injustice at college campuses and the attacks in Paris were both acts of terrorism.

“Interesting how the news reports are covering the Paris terrorist attacks but said nothing abut the terrorist attack at #Mizzou,” one user tweeted reads.

“Paris attacks were terrorism. black students getting death threats on their college campuses (A SUPPOSED SAFE SPACE!!) is also TERRORISM,” another tweet reads.

“There is no rank order to injustice,” DeRay McKesson, a prominent civil rights activist tweeted. “We fight for #Mizzou, #PrayForParis, and seek justice for #SandraBland — at the same time.”

At least 127 people were killed in a string of shootings and suicide bombing carried out by Islamic State supporters in and around Paris on Friday night. French President Francoise Hollande called the attacks an “act of war.”

Students at the University of Missouri have launched protests over several racial incidents they claimed were mishandled by university officials. Last week, university president Tom Wolfe stepped down amid the controversy.

Students complained of several incidents including the appearance of a Swastika drawn with feces, which was never confirmed to be true, and a prank where white students placed cotton balls in the bushes outside a Black Culture Center at the school. Black students also claimed that school officials had done little to combat racist remarks made against them on campus.

Police also arrested a 19-year-old man, Hunter Park, for allegedly threatening to shoot Black students and administrators on social media.

Missouri student body president Payton Head stepped down this week after it was revealed that lied about a “confirmed” Klu Klux Klan threat on campus.

While I sympathize and agree with, in principle (especially the "white conservative" part) with the concerns of the BLM, they are going about this ass-backwards. It seems they have adopted the conservative strategy of hyperbolizing everything and have deliberately ignored the far greater concern here which is black on black crime. Given their strenuous objections to "All Life Matters", they have alienated people whom would otherwise relate to their plight. Now, they've taken to blaming the media (which isn't altogether blameless) for concentrating on the terrorist massacre in Paris. Such a statement endears themselves to no one and is counter productive.

Equating the murderous actions in France to their own mission, especially when it not a fair nor logical, only further degrades their noble cause. The pragmatic concern in regards to Arab/Muslim terrorism happening in the U.S., effects all Americans, black, white and in between. Such an apprehension is legitimate. As callous as this may sound coming from me, but the needs of the many, outweigh the needs of the few ------ especially when it encompasses an entire nation, even those members of the BLM whose lives can also be easily affected. However justifiable their rationale, there just are some things that take presidence.

I would hope that the organizing members of the BLM realize this and adjust their tactics accordingly.

I guess BLM feels that France should have coordinated with the terrorists so the murder off its citizens didnt interfere with thier protests. Makes sense

That and disrupting political rallys for even those that are on their side, like Omalley and Sanders. Taking over college libraries.

The problem is exactly the same as the 60s with the black panthers, there is no leadership stepping up and telling them you are channeling your efforts in exactly the wrong way. Al Sharpton is silent because he is promoting BLM behind the scenes, he is of the old school that making alot of noise if your black makes it all better. The Black Panthers failed. Sharpton has failed and BLM will fail. Why cant they learn from the past and do it different and GET SOME POSITIVE RESULTS.

There is a natural human tendency - greatly amplified when someone has lived in relative peace and comfort for their entire life - to see every event that occurs as some kind of momentous historical benchmark...particularly if they are even peripherally involved in it, or they are young and/or historically ignorant. The BLM people have a greatly exaggerated view of their own importance in the world. To the extent that they are organized, their "movement" does little more than serve as a job bank for professional organizers, unemployed clergymen and other grifters.

There is a natural human tendency - greatly amplified when someone has lived in relative peace and comfort for their entire life - to see every event that occurs as some kind of momentous historical benchmark...particularly if they are even peripherally involved in it, or they are young and/or historically ignorant. The BLM people have a greatly exaggerated view of their own importance in the world. To the extent that they are organized, their "movement" does little more than serve as a job bank for professional organizers, unemployed clergymen and other grifters.

That appears to be characteristic of western youth since the 1960s.

It was a stupid and ridiculous comment to make. It was up there with Mathews saying it was too bad 911 didn't happen under Clinton's watch.


Just looked it up. I wasn't aware he said that.

Could you provide a link @Mister D (http://thepoliticalforums.com/member.php?u=4)?

Because I can't find any reference to it whatsoever.

It appears to be about blaming Bush for 9/11, actually.

I believe clinton was very much complicit in 911 by doing nothing for 8 yrs
People forget there was an attack on the WWC during clintons watch. It failed because they bomb wasnt placed right. A van full of bombs went off in the underground parking lot of the WWC did damage but didnt bring the building down which was the goal. I believe 5 died.
Then there was the asprin factory.

We had more terrorist attacks during clintons 8 yrs against our interests than any other period. The marine barracks in Riaad SA. The naval ship, somalia, the list goes on

Progressives have taught me that universities are rampant with racism, rape, oppression and hate, and that everyone should be able to go to these places for free.

I agree, I said the same thing about six months ago. They may have a legitimate claim, but they are going about it all wrong.

This is where I stand on BLM as well. Awful leadership and execution.

He was complicit in 9-11 alright but it wasn't for doing nothing. It is what he was doing that motivated obl to declare war on America.

Let's try to get it right if you're going to comment on it, thanks.

Yeah, there's nothing anywhere about Matthews saying "...it would have been better if 9/11 had happened under Clinton."

They are too lazy to become real terrorists.

As opposed to the hustley/bustley typical productive to society candidate which comprises an ISIS battalion?

How BLM is "going about it" is a direct reflection of the legitimacy of their claim.
