Undercover Police Have Regularly Spied On Black Lives Matter Activists in New York

Then invalidate those points.

They do not want equality, they want freedom for blacks to enjoy criminal behavior while facing no consequences for it.

If this is not true, then why do they come to the defense of every black person to be killed by police even when those people were proven to be wielding deadly weapons? Why have the BLM leaders not strongly condemned the violence in Ferguson and elsewhere? Why do they not stand against black on black crime? Why do they take no responsibility for their part in the criminal behavior that goes on within these communities? Why are none of their plans/demands for reform focused internally?

Instead, they defend every black criminal, condemn every white cop, and refuse to use any amount of common sense or objectivity when a crime is committed.

Do they not do these things? Every time another black man is shot, they immediately cry foul. And when evidence is produced (security videos, witnesses, etc) proving the black man to be the aggressor, do they not insist that the evidence must always be planted? There's never a point when the BLM group as a whole accepts that there are some bad seeds amongst the black community as there are across every community.

They want someone to fix the problems they created and they perpetuate. I, as a white guy, can't stop them from shooting each other every night. I, as a white guy, can't stop them from spray-painting their town and throwing trash in the street.

Refute that, then. Have you read the BLM demands? They all boil down to two things: 1) Hand us better lives, and 2) Do not punish blacks who have committed crimes, whether past, present, or future.

The glorification of criminal behavior that goes on in urban areas leads young men to get their hands on drugs and guns early on in life and leave many with criminal records before age 20. Additionally, the fact that black parents raise their children by teaching them that the white man and police are the enemy does not help anything.

Again, refute it. If I'm wrong, then why do so many poor black neighborhoods have such high crime rates? Why do crime rates rise in cities as the black population rises? Prove me wrong, and I'll gladly step away from my claims. And don't tell me they're victims of the system. If murders in black communities were happening over basic necessities of life like food, clothing, shelter, etc - then I'd certainly agree that they are victims of the system. But instead, murders happen over drugs, stolen cars, women, and gang wars. No one forces the people involved in such incidents to get involved in crime - they choose to be a part of it. Then they want to cry victim? Explain that, please.
