I have yet to see a case where a minority was minding their own business and the cops came and decided to shoot them dead.

What usually happens is they see some guy minding his own business. And then panic because he's, you know, black.

Guess the 12 yo who was shot by a cop in Cleveland wasn't minding his won business.
bobby_9x has a point, though. If black lives matter, they matter whether the black was shot by a cop or by a criminal.
The bigger points that when people put the "Black Lives Matter" slogan, they do so out of perfectly well-meaning intentions.

And scribbling over it is just inflammatory and childish.
