Quit trying to spin it media boy... doesn't work with me...
We have come very far... thank the MLK's and countless others for that... but the countless protesters, marches and other stuff ain't changing YT's mind today.... That is all.... Keep it on topic media dude....
Apparently we should sad we think this wayOh, so we should just stop demanding to be treated humanely?
But we should dress a certain way to conform?
You are confused and filled with so much self-hate that it's sad. Just sad.
Never thought I'd be debating a member of the Left wing, MSNBC loving media either....
"It is a marked discrepancy from Wilson's admission minutes after the shooting that he had no knowledge of that incident. In the time between that denial and this detailed recollection of the suspect's description and goods stolen, Wilson had driven himself back to Ferguson Police Department Headquarters on the city's Main Street.
He had washed his hands clean of any blood and he had been permitted to bag up his own gun as evidence - acts entirely contrary to St Louis County procedure."
C'mon Son...:shame:
Folks knew about this last week SS. Don't matter though. Gorge H. W Bush had the Justice Dept. go after the police who whupped Rodney King after the jury let all those officers go. You think Obama gonna do the same thing for MB?
Yall quick to condemn Charles Barkley, Pharrell, Hell even Kobe with the Trayvon incident about personal responsibility, but don't see how the Al Sharptons and Ben Crumps of the world are jacking yall over. You really think they care about Blacks? Don't let that Civil Rights stuff fool you. They just like any celebrity, wanting to stay relevant in a new culture.... and yall falling for it....
No, wearing a hoodie with your pants sagging in a middle class neighborhood that has had previous break ins and are actively looking for a culprit is incriminating...
Let me write this down. " Black men can't wear certain types of clothing because it scares white people and uncle Toms. Got it!
Anything else?
Also, Trayvon was there visiting his father and stepmother; while he may have been a face unfamiliar to that wannabe cop Zimmerman, he had a legitimate reason for being in the neigborhood. You posted that if Trayvon had dressed like Carlton Banks he would be alive. No. If Zimmerman would have asked if Trayvon lived there or if he was visiting a relative/family, Trayvon would still be living. That hoodie was absolutely no justification for Zimmerman to murder Trayvon. You just proved my point when you posted "Martin's choice of dress added to the fact that he was stereotyped". That's why Trayvon was murdered, no rhyme, no reason, no rationale, just pure old false negativ stereotype.
Now in this case I see what you are saying, however if you came to that same car dealership with your pants sagging, golds in your mouth and baggy dress, they probably would have called the cops on you as soon as you flashed the cash. All I'm saying is stereotyping, racism, classism, sexism, and any other ism you can think of is here, and it's not going to change.... You have to adapt and conform... Isn't all this explained in the Good Book??? Just saying we shouldn't feed into it that's all
Hey you go listen to this guy & applaud him. I'm sure you'd agree [video=youtube;TN3Vmqcm2eo]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TN3Vmqcm2eo[/video]

So you are saying we have to be passive and make white folks accept us by being kind and play ourselves down?

I should have followed my mind in the first place and not posted on this topic.... I understand that my feelings may not sit well with people on this board, or the African-American community. But to be called a "Uncle Tom" (Which I stupidly fell into) is below the belt, as my comments toward Kendrick calling him a right wing MSNBC. I, Like others may have different views on religion, current affiars, and other matters however that does not give the right to resort to name calling and other juvenile behavior. My initial post on this matter was to bring light to the released testimony of persons that saw this killing happen, and to judge based on the evidence presented thereof. I allowed myself to get caught up in personal emotions and may have had my printed words taken out of context.
As a graduate of Southern University Lab School and product of the Northdale Community in B.R, I know first hand the struggles that African-Americans face in this day and age. I also have been victim of 3 break ins of my mothers home while a youth, and seen my mother beaten by these same intruders and the culprits not put to justice. In previous threads I have stated how my own son has been a target of racism in his school while in kindergarten as I type this.
So no, I am not all for YT, however I know that this is "Modern Warfare" and the same tactics used by Dr. King and others will not bring about change. I apologise to anyone that I may have offended, however I stand by my views that we as African-Americans need to stop blaming others for our plight and stand up by having more blacks in law enforcement, and having more blacks that have our best interests in mind than those that can be easily influenced by the almighty dollar. In closing I truly want better for my people, but like the old saying goes, You can lead a horse to water.....

Bruh we all got different views. Nothing wrong with you making yours. The only way to get past issues is to discuss them. We gotta stop being passive and express our views whether I like yours or you don't like mines. Healthy discussion is needed.
You're trying to walk back what you said, huh?
You just don't get it do you.... But I am talking to the person that wrote an elaborate article on how it was smart and correct doing a QB sneak with no time outs left in the biggest game of their season....
Back to the High Road though (thanks mh)
:topic:
Did I give correct thanks on the high road comment???
There is a thing called Karma.... ever heard of it? Don't you realize that all these protests are just giving these kids more ammunition to sag their pants, steal, jaywalk in the street, and other stupid stuff.
If he was dressed like Carlton Banks this or the Trayvon mess ouldn't have happened.
And I'm talking to this guy.
And this guy.
Yeah, you gets no sympathy from me.
