I just read the article. How is it sexist to note that more men than women are killed by police?

I am truly confused.

Their only argument is a gif telling Huckabee to "shut the fuck up".

They are literally telling men to shut up when they voice men's issues. This is evil, plain and simple.

That's ridiculous. Everyone knows that police punish women the hardest. /s

If I remember correctly, there were 20 black women killed. That means that about 25 times as many white men were killed. There are about 5 times as many white people as black about half being male and half being female. This means white men are killed at a rate 6 times the rate of black women. Even if all 42 women killed were black, white men would still be killed at a rate 3 times as great.

That proves it should be male lives matter.

So they make the valid point that black people are being killed at a rate disporoptionate to their percentage of the population.

Then they condemn the guy for basically making the valid claim that men are killed at a rate disportortionate to their percentage of the population (men are a minority, yet they're 94% of those killed by police, last time I checked men don't make up anywhere near 94% of the population).
