I think you need to provide some hard proof as to your "1." assertion. There is nowhere within the BLM mission(as per their website) statement or their activity that advocates the harming or killing of cops.You are exactly right that what the cop did in Chicago was disgusting, and he deserves to be punished. And the reality is that the majority of Americans are exercising common sense and realize there are a few bad cops out there, and there are plenty of gang members and thugs that try to attack cops. Both sides need to cool down the rhetoric, but here is one distinct difference I see between the two movements:Before I post this, I want to say that the video released of the Chicago shooting is absolutely disgusting and disturbing. That police officer needs to be thrown in prison for the longest possible sentence for murder.
I found this article interesting. I don't think I took away from it what the author wanted me to take away from it. I took away from this article how the police are in a no win situation here. So....they both over police and under police the same community. Crimes happen and they arrest someone. I guess that is oppressive. However, when a murder happens and the entire community shuts up and nobody is willing to help the police or even call the police, that is...."inadequate" policing.

There is wrong happening on both sides of this issue. People can point to the police all they want and claim they are the problem. But, there is blame on both sides and until both sides address the issues, nothing will change.
1. Black Lives Matter members on multiple occasions have organized protests chanting that they want dead cops now. Seriously, this has happened on more than one occasion. So their propaganda is to encourage others to kill cops.
2. On the contrary, I have not seen protests supporting cops that suggest they should go out and kill others, especially blacks. If someone can point me to an organized protest where this happened, I'm all ears.

What appears to be happening to me is that there are other anti cop groups out there coopting the BLM slogan. Yes, there are groups out there that want to harm cops, but BLM is not categorically not that group.
