Rapper T.I. felt the fury of #BlackLivesMatter on Sunday when he refused to subscribe to the group's propaganda and tried to address black-on-black violence.

The rapper tweeted a picture of two young black men who were gunned down by another black man and said that #BlackLivesMatter needed to address this in order to make any real difference.

RIP bros. For us to really have an argument in the BLM movement WE MUST show that Black Lives Matter to Us!!!!! pic.twitter.com/K2Supy07ui — T.I. (@Tip) July 31, 2016



Within minutes, #BlackLivesMatter supporters attacked the rapper over his comments saying that the real fight is against institutional racism with police. One person even commented that black-on-black violence doesn't even really exist.

@eff_yo_tweets2 @Tip Because what he's saying is wrong. BLM is about the unchecked brutality against Black people. Their killers will be — Katastrophe (@prettymskiller) August 1, 2016

@Tip Go home to your wife. You aren't intelligent enough to jump into this arena. — Dee (@mami_chique) August 1, 2016

What about the violence you committed by giving us Iggy Azalea? @Tip 🤔🤔🤔 — #BlackWomenMatter (@TKOEd) July 31, 2016

@Tip haven't you said you'll kill ppl in your songs... Don't use those mens' death as a way to push some BS statement — Daaaaang, Mama (@AlrightJodyDamn) July 31, 2016

@AndreaShelby4 @Tip uhh but BLM is about institutional racism. also black on black crime isnt a real thing — #AllPodcastsMatter (@AllPodsMatter) August 1, 2016

The truth is of course that far more black men are gunned down every year by other black men than by the police. The FBI reported that 2,491 black people were killed in 2013, and more than 90 percent of the victims were murdered by other African Americans. 136 unarmed African Americans were killed by cops in 2012 according to The Washington Post.
