Marine Rants About Black Lives Matter (Video)

AmericaNow Staff  ·  June 21, 2017

A Marine’s rant about Black Lives Matter is going viral (video below).

Michael Whaley, a 27-year-old former Marine, shared a video on YouTube in which he discusses the Black Lives Matter movement and why he, as a back man, thinks that “all lives matter,” according to The Blaze.

“This Black Lives Matter movement only promotes racism,” Whaley says in the video. “And now they’re encouraging black people to go and kill white people, because they want white people to feel what we felt 400 years ago. Newsflash: Were your living 400 years ago? Nope.”

The Marine continues, “All lives matter. That police officer that got killed by that black man because that black man listened to what y’all were saying about going out and killing white people. That police officer’s life mattered. That 9-year-old girl in Ferguson, Missouri, that got shot in the head while she was doing her homework in a drive-by shooting that none of y’all protested — her life mattered.”

Whaley explained in the video that he has received plenty of hate after previously sharing his views, which many in the black community have found controversial. He said that he has been referred to as an “Uncle Tom” and a “house n***er.”

He responded to the insults, “I had drill instructors in boot camp that had better insults than y’all,” adding, “The reason I don’t have a lot of black supporters — I’m going to tell you the God’s honest truth. The reason why I don’t have a lot of black supporters is because black people can’t accept the truth about themselves. Black people admitting to the truth is like them snitching on themselves, and black people have this no snitching rule.”

Whaley said he does not feel that white people should be blamed for racial issues of today.

“This racism has to stop, and y’all wanna blame white people for the stuff that’s going on today? No,” he said. “The reason why a lot of black people are locked up is because black people do dumb crimes.”

Whaley concluded by saying that in the military, “we don’t see color,” adding, “The only thing we see in the military is family, and that’s what Americans need to be like.”

Readers shared their thoughts on the video on the Mad World News Facebook page.

“Your mother should be so very proud of you young man I would be so proud to call you my son you are a true blessing to America my hat off to you and god bless your every day here on earth,” one reader commented.

“Amen! Good people get along well with other good people regardless of race,” another user wrote. “Bad people give everyone they meet problems and drama! Stop the hate! Talk out the issues and remember we are all Americans and one family!”
