Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani called the Black Lives Matter movement 'inherently racist' as he talked to John Dickerson today on Face the Nation.
Giuliani argued that the protests, and the media's coverage of the protests, hyped up the violence between white officers and black citizens, whereas the focus should also be on black-on-black crime.
'If you want to deal with this on the black side, you've got to teach your children to be respectful of the police and you've got to teach your children that the real danger to them is not the police, the real danger to them 99 out of 100 times ... are other black kids who are going to kill them,' Giuliani said.

John Dickerson questioned former New York City Major Rudy Giuliani on Face the Nation today, interrupting the Republican pol several times when Giuliani was trying to make the point that Black Lives Matter is racist
'That's the way they're going to die,' the former mayor added.
Giuliani started out the segment expressing sympathy for the two black men killed in Louisiana and Minnesota and then the officers shot in Dallas, Texas Thursday night.
'I'd like them all to remember that though these incidents happened in different ways, they all share it together as Americans,' Giuliani said.
'We share this violence together as Americans,' he said.
Moving forward, Giuliani thought that white and black people needed to start viewing each other's circumstances differently.
White people needed to be aware that black men and boys have a fear of being confronted by the police because of some of these highly-publicized incidents, Giuliani said.
Philando Castile, 32, was shot multiple times and killed during a traffic stop in Minnesota on Wednesday with his girlfriend and her daughter sitting inside the vehicle. His girlfriend Diamond Reynolds livestreamed the aftermath on Facebook.
A day before, 37-year-old Alton Sterling was shot by officers in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, outside a convenient store where he was selling music CDs.
'Some people may consider it rational. Some people may consider it irrational. But it's a reality. It – it exists,' Giuliani said.
Giuliani suggested a 'zero tolerance' policy, which would force white officers to show 'no disrespect' to the black citizens they're hired to protect.

The former mayor also said there's a 'second reality' in the black community.
'And the second reality in the black community is, there's too much violence in the black community,' Giuliani said. 'So a black will die 1 percent or less at the hands of the police and 99 percent at the hands of a civilian, most often another black.'
'So if you want to protect black lives, then you've got to protect black lives, not just against police, which happens rarely, although with tremendous attention, and which happens every 14 hours in Chicago,' he continued.
'Every 14 hours,' he repeated, which has been how frequently people have been murdered in the city of Chicago in the early months of 2016. 'And we never hear from Black Lives Matter,' Giuliani added.
Dickerson pointed out to Giuliani that he wants white people to be more understanding of the situation black people are living in, while he advises black people to be more respectful toward the police.
'Those messages seem to conflict with one another,' the CBS Newsman said.
'Of course they don't,' the ex-mayor replied.
'If I were a black father, and I was concerned with the safety of my child, really concerned about it and not in a politically activist sense, I would say, be very respectful of the police. Most of them are good. Some can be very bad. And just be very careful,' Giuliani said.
'I'd also say, be very careful of those kids in the neighborhood and don't get involved with them because, son, there's a 99 percent chance they're going to kill you, not the police,' Giuliani added.
'And we've got to hear that from the black community,' he said.
Again using Chicago as an example, Giuliani noted how there were 60 shootings over the Fourth of July and 14 murders.
'We wonder, do black lives matter or only the very few black lives that are killed by white policeman?' Giuliani said.
'And on the – on the black side, what they hear from us is constantly defending the police,' Giuliani noted.

During his administration, Giuliani remarked, his police commissioner Howard Safir and Loretta Lynch, who now serves as the Attorney General, made sure to put an officer away for 25 years for brutally attacking someone.
But even though Giuliani was OK punishing a bad cop that didn't stop him from repeating his claim that Black Lives Matter puts a target on officers backs.
Dickerson wanted to know why he thought so.
'Well, when they talk about killing police officers,' Giuliani began, to which Dickerson objected.
'They sure do,' the former mayor replied. 'They sing rap songs about killing police officers and they talk about killing police officers and they yell it out at their rallies and the police officers hear it.'
'And the reality is – please – please let me finish. And when – when you say black lives matter, that's inherently racist.'
Dickerson tried interrupting Giuliani, who ran for president back in 2008, but the seasoned politician wasn't having it.
'Black lives matter, white lives matter, Asian lives matter, Hispanic lives matter. That's anti-American and it's racist,' Giuliani said.
'Of course black lives matter, and they matter greatly, but when you focus in on one percent or less than 1 percent of the murder that's going on in America, and you make it a national thing and all of you in the media make it much bigger than the black kid who's getting killed in Chicago every 14 hours, you create a disproportion,' Giuliani concluded.

Blacks have no one to teach them - their family structure eroded in the last 40 years - there is no father - they just knock the girls up and take off - kids have zero chance - like being born in Uganda - a decent life is like 1% - they r doomed for the foreseeable future - not trying to racist but kids with no father have no shot at life
