Black Lives Matter: Violent Rioters, Racists And Peace Prize Recipients?

Brodie Tuck 24th May 2017

That’s right, the same group that calls for the killing of police officers[1] is being awarded the Sydney 2017 Peace Prize. Talk about Irony.

The Peace Prize, with is awarded each year to a nominee whom “has promoted “peace with justice”, human rights and non-violence”[2] is to be awarded to the same group that rose to fame after the shooting of Michael Brown and participated in the proliferation of the the debunked hoax[3] of ‘hands up, don’t shoot.’ The very same group, which explicitly calls for the killing of police, with delightful chants including “Pigs in a blanket, fry ‘em like bacon!”[4]

What. The. Hell?

Forgive me, but did we cross into an alternate dimension where right is wrong, wrong is right, good is bad and evil is virtuous?

Black Lives Matter frankly, is an anti-white hate group, from barring whites from attending their ‘black only healing space’[5] to refusing to sell Black Lives Matter T-shirts to whites based solely on their skin colour,[6] Black Lives Matter has all the hallmarks of an anti-white hate mongering group.[7]

In spite of the horrendous track record Black Lives Matter has, it still is being honored with a Peace Prize, what is the reasoning behind this?

A potential answer, lies in the fact that Australia faces the very real possibility of the emergence of its very own race fixated movement, for very much the same reasons claimed to be the impetus of the creation of Black Lives Matter.

As is all too often the case, the cracks began to appear with the decline in the basic understanding of mathematics

Aboriginal people in Australia make up roughly 3% of the Australian population, yet they constitute 28% of the prison population.[8] This discrepancy, as one would expect, is blamed on institutionalized racism, abuse and police brutality.

The logical explanation however, would be that aboriginal people are committing disproportionately more crime than their non-Aboriginal counterparts, hence accounting for the discrepancy in prison population.

This theory is next to impossible to verify however, due to Australian officials not recording the race of the offenders instead only documenting the country of birth for charged offenders.[9] What we do know regarding Aboriginal crime however, is that according to the Australian Institute of Criminology’s analysis of police data, Aboriginals are “15 to 20 times more likely to commit violent offences than non-Indigenous people.”[10]

If this trend were found to be true in other crimes, then the disproportionate incarceration rate for Aboriginals would be due to Aboriginals committing more crime, and therefore being imprisoned at a greater rate as a result.

This gap in statistical information however, serves as fertile ground for race-baiters to sow their seeds of division, it is for that reason I would postulate that the decision to award Black Lives Matter the 2017 Sydney Peace Prize, is to allow an Australian division of the movement time to foster.

Although that conclusion remains mere conjecture, what is unavoidable however is that the decision to honour a violent, racist and thuggish domestic terrorist organisation like Black Lives Matter is beyond absurd, crossing the line into blatant distortion of reality.

But in this world where good is bad, bad is good and evil is virtuous, perhaps Black Lives Matter can possibly qualify as a valid recipient of an award given under the guise, of furthering ‘peace.’

What an odd world we live in.
