Doesn't count mate, just a few "whitey" lives lost at the hands of a disgruntled darker variety person! ;)
But who's counting.
Not flavour of the month media news currently, black/ethnic whatever on white atrocities, it will get a mention in the news, but nowhere near as milked to death as the BLM protests.
We, the so called "white privileged", should all be busily engaged in "ripping down old monuments and statues", lest they "offend" certain minorities by their historical significance! :roll:
This isn't historical, it happened now, not unlike Georges unfortunate incident.
But we no longer have the right to be equally offended anymore.
My two pennies worth, take it or leave it.

Imagine if that stabbing had been committed by a whitey on 3 blacks imagine the uproar, its a one way agenda and I ain't buying into any of it.

Another example of dual standards.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/53145201
OK so someone with a bit of money, for whatever reason, decides to hire a plane to fly a "banner" that reads "White Lives Matter...Burnley" in response to them all "taking the knee" at the start of their latest game.
You can read it a couple of ways I guess, depending on your point of view, but the sentiments expressed I personally feel are quite valid, just take reading as an example.
It's not mentioned in the news article, but a Police spokesman interviewed on the radio stated..... "We are investigating this despicable action, and will be taking appropriate action"!
Appropriate action?
Is it against the law now to say white lives matter?
Was the plane breaching air traffic regulations?
Exactly what are they "investigating"?
So it's OK to fly many tens of thousands of banners that proclaim "Black Lives Matter", protest in the streets, ignore social distancing rules, and have a football team have their complete strip emblazoned with the slogan, but it's NOT OK to fly a single banner proclaiming "White Lives Matter" trailed behind a plane?
I suppose not a single eyebrow would have been raised, if it simply read "Sale on at B and Q" or whatever!

I think that leads us nicely back to the OP thread title....ALL LIVES MATTER.....including "Whites" ;)

But apparently you can't say that anymore. :roll:

Whoops, he dropped the ball there!
All he needed to do was sport a BLM tee shirt, and "take the knee", and everybody would be currently patting him on the back and applauding him.
However................https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-53279273
Then again, if we want fredom of speech, he has every right to express his perceived version.
Unless freedom of speech becomes "only what is judged as currently PC acceptable" of course.
He's probably a tad old for current versions of "PC", and his comments come with whatever historical baggage and preconceptions that may bring.
But freedom of speech, is freedom of speech, until is "isn't" anymore of course. ;)
The day "I take the knee", will be the day one of my legs fails me.
And folks can read that anyway they like.
