[Serious] People who counter "Black Lives Matter" with "All Lives Matter" or "Blue Lives Matter": Why?

I don't know why you're so angry, we're just talking.

Nobody has ever said that no white people are ever the victim of police brutality. Nobody has ever said that not all lives matter.

Statistically, black people are way more likely to be profiled, mistreated, and killed unarmed by police, which is just part of many aspects of systemic racism in America. That is what Black Lives Matter is concerned with.

Replying to "Black Lives Matter" with "All Lives Matter" implies that BLM is saying they don't, which isn't the case. Black Lives Matter has a certain focus, just like a Breast Cancer foundation has a certain focus, but they aren't saying no other cancers matter. Does this really not make sense to you?
