Is BLACK LIFE MATTERS a terrorist organization

The other day, as an investigative reporter and think tank founder, I contacted some of the leadership of Black Lives Matter after I'd been involved in the petition to get BLM (Black Lives Matter) designated as a terrorist group - merely because their activities do fit the actual definition of terrorism; threatening violence to force political change. The leadership vehemently denied such allegations and refuted the Oxford Dictionary - claiming "white bias" which is silly, although perhaps it was a white man who had founded the Oxford Dictionary Team long ago.

The Founder of BLM got on CNN and stated he didn't much like being called a terrorist or his organization being labeled as such a group. Yes, I hear what he is saying... but, the definition of terrorism stands. Cite: Dictionary. Of course, he didn't like being called a terrorist for a different view point, just as I don't like being called a racist every time I disagree with the Obama Administration or when I disagree with the left side of politics. One of the leaders suggested more community based policing in the neighborhoods. I agree with that solution, still Black Lives Matter is inciting violence.

In fact, George Soros gave $30 million to BLM to cause problems, protests, so BLM followers are being used for political propaganda. I doubt anyone in this nation would disagree that there are challenges when it comes to racial profiling of blacks with regards to police. BLM has turned into a group that incites violence whether they wanted that or not - some did - even the head of the group didn't particularly feel any remorse for the sniper killings - saying "what about all the blacks killed by police" instead. Yes, maybe so, but two-wrongs don't make a right.

Maybe the media caused these things but BLM always seeks the media to garner attention, double edged sword. One you live by and/or die by apparently. Lastly, thank you for your policing background in your extended family - we need a solution - more protests, riots, RNC disruptions, killings of police isn't the answer - the awareness concept you speak of isn't working very well for Blacks in America - BLM is hurting the cause - time for a name change or re-branding. What's going on today is not healthy for race-relations and it certainly won't bring about positive change. I ask everyone to take a deep breath and consider all this.
