@IronMan Thank you for the kind words Tony โค๏ธ I am always open to suggestion and opinions from other so I can expand my own horizon 
We are together on this planet and we need to solve and do this with each other so why not getting to know one and another ๐ The strenght of humanity! ๐ช

Thats seems so overly simplistic as to miss the real point in my view.
There is a comic that I think came close to a good example...
One guy (representing blacks) has both legs shot and is bleeding to death and he is being dragged to the hospital. Another guy has just one leg shot and is also bleeding to death (representing non-blacks).. The guy with just one leg show out goes "You're going to help me too" and everyone looks at him with disgust.
To me focusing just on BLM (which should have a significant voice btw and not ignored) is the equivalent of helping just the guy with two legs shot out and ignore the other guy. However saying "Every Life Matters" is more a kin to trying to stop violent shooters directly. It fixes the problem for the black community but addresses the problem for everyone else at the same time. The only real way to see any meaningful results.
You cant solve problems that effects everyone by having tunnel vision for only one aspect of the problem.

My point is if all you keep doing is sending people with both legs shot to the hospital and not address the bigger problem the end result is an endless stream of people getting shot. The ones with two shots get help (sometimes) and the ones with one shot keep dying. You dont solve the problem until you address the root cause, which you cant do unless you achknowledge both groups are getting shot.
The point is, you dont solve problems by having tunnel vision. The issue in the police force has less to do with racism and more to do with the fact that it creates an environment where cruelty can thrive. Racism is just one sort of popular cruelty that thrives in that context.
What everyone thinks is the problem is racism (and yes its real and a big problem).. what the actual problem is that cops are above the law, and being above the law means cruelty thrives, that means racism, just as much as cruelty against a white dude (which is 50% of those who are unarmed and killed).
You address the accountability problem and you eliminate the ability for racism to thrive, problem solve. You try to eliminate just the racism you only solve 25% of the problem and, well, its a much harder problem to solve as well.
