<p>Apparently it is now a crime to state that every life is important, regardless of race or color. The increasingly popular social media movement Black Lives Matter is getting out of control. ;</p>
<p>This Saturday, Democratic presidential hopeful and former Governor of Maryland Martin O&rsquo;Malley attended the 2015 Netroots Nation convention in Phoenix. He spoke of income inequality and the criminal justice system with moderator and illegal alien Jose Antonio Vargas. ;The liberal audience challenged O&rsquo;Malley&rsquo;s record as governor and mayor before interrupting him with cries of &ldquo;black lives matter.&rdquo; ;</p>
<p>O&rsquo;Malley&rsquo;s response, &ldquo;Black lives matter. White lives matter. All lives matter,&rdquo; only made the situation worse. O&rsquo;Malley, along with fellow candidate Bernie Sanders, was booed off the stage and forced to close the discussion. ;</p>
<p>O&rsquo;Malley apologized less than a day later with his metaphorical tail hanging between his legs: &ldquo;That was a mistake on my part and I meant no disrespect. I did not mean to be insensitive in any way of communities that I did not understand the tremendous passion, commitment, and feeling and depth of feeling that all of us should be attaching to this issue.&rdquo;</p>
<p>What he really apologized for was insinuating that all lives, both black and white, are equally important. ;</p>
<p>Hillary Clinton fell into the same trap last month during a speech in which she said &ldquo;all lives matter.&rdquo; She was branded as racist.</p>
<p>What began as a hash tag on Internet forums has evolved into a dangerous, progressive left movement leaning towards the extreme. It is painfully obvious that Black Lives Matter does not consider all lives equal. ;</p>
