New billboard in Memphis puts twist on 'Black Lives Matter'
http://freerepublic.com/%5Ehttp://www.wthr.com/story/29313287/new-billboard-in-memphis-puts-twist-on-black-lives-matter | 6/13/15


MEMPHIS, Tenn. - A billboard in Memphis gives new meaning to the phrase "black lives matter."



Big and bold, in red and black, the message stands out to drivers in the Orange Mound neighborhood: "Black lives matter. So let's quit killing each other."



Civil rights activist Fred Davis is the man behind the message. He's not new to putting up controversial billboards.



Davis' billboard is directly in front of his insurance company. He said he's expanding on the "black lives matter" movement following the deaths of black men across the country.



He said it's time black people realize they need to stop violence against each other.

I just don't understand how it is that otherwise intelligent people can't seem to understand that when you lend more money to a person or an institution that is unable to pay its current debt, then you can't expect there to be a good outcome. It almost always leads to tears. Why would this time be any different, especially when the bad debt has gone global and systemic? If anything, Keynesianism has made the risk of a catastrophe 100 times greater. It's obvious to anyone who is not pushing a political agenda.
