    I have not seen one banner that says 'black lives matter TOO' have you...?
    Every single one excludes the words 'white' or 'all'

    wonder how long after they have cleared you, like they did with him, you stay ‘on the radar’. If it is forever the. 40,000 isn’t many.

    Carrots are nice.

    What! How dare you say that carrots are nice but not say that broccoli is nice too!

    Woah nobody is saying that only carrots are nice.

    Well I've not seen anyone explicitly saying that so you must be implying that only carrots are nice.

    And it's always the same poeple that can't wait to scream racist.... It's impossible with some posters to have a debate about race with out being called a racist.

    If the authorities knew about Khairi Saadallahs mental health condition (The Guardian has learned that he was under the care of NHS mental health services at the time of the alleged terror attack) you would think that condition alone would have made MI5 more aware and elevated him to a higher terrorist level.

    I'm not attacking anyone. I am merely pointing out that what the slogan 'Black Lives Matter' means is obvious to anyone with half a brain. Are you saying you don't understand the slogan?

    I'm not saying I dont understand the banners/slogans I'm saying all lives matter, you would think with regards the banners/slogans only black lives matter not seen one banner saying all lives matter anyone with half a brain could have understood that.

    If you are referring to me ( half a brain ) which I suspect you are then at least it's sufficient to see whats behind and the sheer hypocrisy of the mainly black 'black lives matter' and the mainly WHITE 'extinction rebellion' mobs then I don't understand your accusation of any racism at all, do you, honestly...?

    That's the thing though, black lives matter does mean all lives matter.

    As you say, the banners don't say 'All Lives Matter' but neither do they say 'Only Black Lives Matter'.

    It's still the case in today's society, particularly in the US, that black lives are seen to not have the same value as white lives, especially when it comes to people in authority. These protests are aimed at those people in authority, who already know that white lives matter, and so the BLM movement is saying that they (black lives) matter too.

    Maybe they should change the slogans on the banners then.
