...but then you're mistakenly comparing apples to oranges when you bring up other deaths. The highest percentage of crime of any ethnic group occurs WITHIN that ethnic group. Thats a fact. In other words, more black on black rapes, murders, thefts, etc will always occur within the black community... just like more white on white rapes, murders, thefts, etc will always occur within the white community. That's how statistics work.
Next, you're arguing that these people should take up EVERY SINGLE CAUSE that exists in their community in order to validate the cause they are specifically taking up? That's a fallacy.
The point is the group/organization that citizens are taught to look towards for "protection and safety" from dangerous people in society doesn't provide that protection and safety equally to all members of the society.
Now just like you felt you had to explain the specific meaning behind your phrase so have those who I've heard say the phrase "black lives matter". They've shared their context just like you've shared yours and yet it's not being heard by folks who repeat the refrain "no all lives matter".
