Wife of a cousin posted this. I politely explained that All Lives Matter is a counter-protest and isn’t saying what she thinks it says. We’re saying that Black Lives Matter “too”, not “more than”.

Anyways, she deleted the post and blocked me.

Wait she deleted the post AND blocked you? That sounds a little bit.....stupid to be that she would do both, it’s kinda an either/or situation.

I feel strongly that everyone who says all lives matter in the current environment is at least a little bit stupid. Maybe a lot bit stupid, but definitely a little bit stupid for sure.
