Concerning any controversial topic or argument, any way of presenting said topic or argument is self-defeating if it has significantly more collateral than intended impact or results.
For instance, "Islam is a religion of peace" is false by the nature of Islam, demonstrated by its well-established legacy in our time, by. . .
* Failing to create peace in the societies where significant numbers of its adherents reside.
* Encouraging cruel or violent acts against those in its own society and against those within other societies, that it views as outcasts, wrongdoers, or less than them.
I have spent a considerate amount of time watching interviews by protesters and so-called progressives who have a say in this matter. America's race tensions in the broadest scope possible, where those tensions exist, boil down to an accepted understanding of "Those people don't like my people, and therefore my people don't like those people." Particularly outraged individuals of color demand more influence, affluence or power from the public as a whole, which is ascribed as being influenced and controlled by "the whites" or white society at large. There emerges this strange paradox where they believe that they should be able to be independently influential, affluent and powerful, but this power must first be brokered and lent by the society they designate as their enemy. The whole argument of "we fall victim to the actions of a society bent on harming us" undermines any attempt to receive sympathy or empathy from the society that it demonizes, especially when the game of "an eye for an eye" is played, and their actions display open enmity against their opposition.
TL;DR One or many will fail at their efforts to earn sympathy or empathy by demanding it from a person or group that it argues is evil, especially when they strive to actively demonstrate their hatred or hostility against them.

watch the video. it was put side-by-side with apparent white-on-black police brutality.
i'm not claiming to agree with the video or the attempt at a message or anything -- like i said, i found it disturbing -- i'm explaining the message. it's not just "i hanged a white kid because i hate white people."
