African American citizens need to take charge in their own communities. Self police. Expose illegal activity which has plagued urban areas.

I can’t begin to explain the millions of dollars that go into our inner cities, which are donated by those in white suburbia. But, if the people in those communities don’t want change then you can’t change. This is so much deeper than one man being killed. Inner city culture fostered the lawlessness that lead to the deaths of Shannon Christian and Christopher Newsome. It’s the thug life mentality that killed Jadaivion Dobson. What uprising happened to address those things? Made some t-shirts? Big friggin deal.

The BET founder guy who is trying to push an illegal 14 trillion reparations plan said it well the other day we he said that trying to educate his people has failed, and so has affirmative action. Humorously he thinks giving every black person $350,000 is going to fix all their problems...

It took many years of well intended policies with horrible consequences to get to this point. It won't be fixed overnight. But until those communities self determine to make it better, with outside help, it will never get change. Police and those communities have to come together and find some common ground. They must overlook outlier events to work towards a common good, meaning the first time some event happens to police or the community they don't give up, they keep working to make it better.

The biggest problem with this is that the media and politics just encourage it to continue. It's a wedge issue that they will never let go.

Uniformed military kneeling... WTF!
Due to the politicization of these protests and riots, he just made a political statement while in uniform which violates military regs. He needs to lose his bars.

I just meant the fact he thinks they are unrelated.

If you think the propensity for young black men in poor neighborhoods to both carry and use a firearm in acts of violence has nothing at all to do with the number of young black men killed by police, I don't know what to say to that.

Again, 9 unarmed black men killed in 2019. 36 all races.

How many black men have been killed by someone other than police?

Yep, it's dumb for sure. Just legitimizing what she said which was wrong on so many levels.

Instead of owning up to your own mistake you went dismissive with a gif.

It's one of those internet ironies. And instead of being understanding about it when it came to you, you are now doubling down here to avoid owning up to your similar mistake.

What mistake?

I'm going to say Pepper Spray, and the church ladies giving out snacks aren't used to being gassed so they didn't know. Still, stupid to do this to what seemed to be peaceful people over a photo op.

In other news, will Trump label them Terrorists? I have a feeling that he won't since they support him.

Facebook is banning the far-right violent group Proud Boys after an attack in New York

White nationalist group posing as antifa called for violence on Twitter

I agree and I have real issues with how it was done and I’ve addressed some of them. I also have an issue with folks not understanding that if LE is trying to move you, bloody effing move and nobody on either side ends up getting injured.

As to your Trump comment. Well, I’ve heard him reference all violent groups, but it seems like some on the left won’t be happy until he specifically names names.

I just want someone to please explain how he’s supposed to have any control over who supports him.🤷‍♀️
