The case in New York is beyond baffling to me. They went after this dude over cigarettes?

Did you hear about the news crew that got van broken into while they interviewing folks in some neighborhood in northwest DC about the app telling folks to stay away from they're hood? Dudes popped the lock on their van took all there equipment. One of the crew had his cell phone with him so they tracked another crew member's cell phone to some dumpster and found some of their stuff. Folks had been calling the sketchy neighborhood app racist but it was right about that hood.

Killing in the hood do get attention. Lots of attention. By the press and the folks in those communities. Don't you know how many stop the violence campaigns, rallies and marches there have been? Too many to count. All these programs and initiatives you see are in response to the violence. So you'd be misguided to think that nobody cares about violence in the hood.

The difference between what happened in Missouri and what happens in the hood is that cops often get off for murder.

Killing in the hood only gets attention if it's in a major city. Otherwise, it's a moot point. And even then it only gets attention because they want to make black folk look worse than we already do. They don't do it because they actually care. And half of the killers in the hood get off too because no one will say a word about who they are and there's no video to put on the news. All that attention is, is basically "look at these fools killing themselves." Not "something has to be done to stop this." If that were the case the national guard would've been sent into the southside of Chicago or New Orleans long ago.

You don't see people outraged about that type of stuff ANYWHERE NEAR the way you do when something like this happens. No one riots and burns down buildings and loots (in their own neighborhoods at that) when 50 people are shot in Chicago over the weekend. Keep it real.

I never understood the riot in your own neighborhood concept?

Shat I might download that mofo. :lol:

They need to build that into the GPSs. I would never forget the last time I visited my folks in Chicago I used a GPS to get around and that mofo took me through every shady azz street in the city. I didn't even stop at some of the stop signs. I just wanted to get the muck out of there. My dad lives on a street where half of the damn homes are abandon. I swear me and that dude don't have a lot of common. I just look like that mofo.

Yeah
 
The problem that makes situations like this not get heard fairly is the nikkers who show up stealing, looting and doing ignorant shyt. By breaking in stores you have now turned a death ear to those outside of the community who would have probably listened. Sad!!!

What do you think those folks over in Egypt were doing?

Why do back folks always respond with "I also want us to be this outraged over black on black crime"? Maybe yall need to ask yourselves why you aren't outraged, because the truth of the matter is there are black folks out in the community everyday fighting against black on black crime. We always over look that fact to over look the wrong white America does. If black groups didn't fight against black on black crime it would be worst off then what it really is. Folks ask yourselves what aren't you doing to fight black on black crime is more of the question. :tup: My church just had a gun buy back, guess what yall weren't there. We also had a counselors talking to kids, a education HBCU seminar, a education GED program. Guess what most of the uppity blacks don't attend, but they are quick to judge though.........

Man you can count on it EVERY TIME when some thing happens that a handful of blacks will say it and it irks me to death. That has NOTHING to do with this situation.

An unarmed black teen was gunned down when all he did was throw his arms in the air. Even the Ferguson chief has admitted this. But somehow you want to bring up an unrelated issue into this tragic situation
 
We aren't in Egypt are we? Therefore we must abide by rules of the USA to get our views heard. The Watts riots changed nothing, but it did destroy a community that has yet to rebuild itself, and that was over 50 years ago.........

Those poor Asian business owners suffered the worse. Mofos are just looking for an excuse to wreck havoc.
 



Keep in mind a bunch of armed white guys confronted the feds and sheriff deputies with weapons drawn and feds and deputies ran away. Now they're gathering at border to shoot brown kids but no law enforcement folks will lay a hand on them.

Technically, they went downtown and caused havoc. They overthrew the govt in charge too.

Technically, those people in Ferguson destroyed multibillion-dollar businesses that are insured and can be fixed. Can't say that about the dead kid.

Yeah, because abiding by the rules of the USA sure kept Eric Gardner and Mike Brown alive.

I am not equating the too bro. I wasn't aware the riots were downtown either. I was stating in general to Unknown's comment that I never understood the riot in your own hood thinking. The DC riots, the LA Riots, etc.. did more to hurt black businesses than they did anything else.

True...the march was cool...the demonstrations...yet when you start rioting what are you accomplishing?
 
I think the store that was looted was the store that Mike Brown & the other person allegedly stole the gum from which is why the police office was questioning/arresting Mike. Not that it matters...but that's the connection.

But then I read on FB where the owner said he never accused anyone of stealing anything, but I haven't found that in an article.

I get what you are saying...but one thing that stands out is...those armed white men were in control and organized. We always react with our emotions and that doesn't help anything. we want to riot, yell, throw things, and attack the police...but we do it in an irrational and unorganized manner.

Saturday/Sunday morning - They did everything right. Peaceful organized protests that made the Ferguson Police look worse than they already did with the shooting. Why bring out dogs and M-16's to a protest? The nation and the world were watching and had their back

A few knuckleheads set them back a few steps because they couldn't control their inner n****.
 
Dear black folks learn your history!!!! The Black Panthers marched with guns. Showed up on many scenes ready to go to war, yet they did not act with emotions. They were prepared to show the whites, yes we are ready and will go at it with you, but they were disciplined and that is why they got their point across. The looting, stealing and burning down stores in your neighborhood only destroys the property your parents worked hard to get!!!!

That was on purpose. There was already tension between Blacks and Asian business owners in Watts/SC after a Black girl was killed by a store owner and the verdict just gave the rioters a reason to get at them. They (mostly) weren't going after Black businesses... There were Koreans putting up signs saying "Black Owned".
