    Agree. There is no source and it’s probably some stupid person trying to scare people.

    FWIW I get angry when I see these flags but I also know some people who support this and they are simply misled. If I’ve said it once I’ve said it a thousand times, people can change. I used to have the opinion similar to Blue Lives Matters. My world view was bey limited and this was before social media. It’s up to everyone else to listen to them and help better understand their perspective so we can help broaden their life experiences.

        The issue of police brutality and how it disproportionately affects racial minorities is extremely complicated. I’ve known BLM supporters and BlueLM folks and they’re all different from each other, not just different due to the causes they support. Do you think BLM supporters are all hyper-liberal communists? I would hope not. So, stop applying blanket stereotypes to people who support one end of a complex issue simply because you support the other.
