They disrupt the requirement. Hell you guys have been saying the nuclear family requirement has been increasingly disrupted since the 70's. They are acknowledging what is obvious.
You're castigating them for saying what we already know?

That is certainly an interesting take.
It doesn’t jive with the things BLM leadership has said or done.

Oh, and who is “you guys.”

My kids and their friends have been in multiple peaceful protests in Atlanta. At least one of my daughters was at one today.
Do you have any idea how many rallies have been held in and around Atlanta in the last 48 hours?

There may very well be peaceful protests, but again, the ones that are backed by blm? Just because people have a protest and hold blm signs, does not mean the organization is actually involved.

They are saying it is not a requirement for raising kids properly.
They are not saying a nuclear family is not good, or even best.
They are working with the reality that most black children are not currently in a traditional nuclear family.
They are saying that they are intent on raising their children well, which will in turn disrupt the notion that a traditional nuclear family structure is a requirement for raising kids well.

That is a silly interpretation of that statement, considering "We encourage young black men and women to take part in the traditional nuclear family" could have easily been added. Instead, they make virtually the opposite argument.

And not for nothing, appending "western" into that sentence was no accident, either. Soviet propogandists would be proud.

Anyway, you can don the blinders of social justice and pretend this is not an extremist organization if you want to. Doesn't make any difference to me. But you are gonna end up defending some real dumbass stuff if you insist on keeping that perspective. Just like Huff and Septic when they assured me no one was serious about defunding the police.

I think they should've gotten someone with better editing skills.
I think they're trying to say they "reject the necessity of a traditional nuclear family structure."
"Disrupt" is a horrible word choice there.

Horrible, but I’d say honest. Which honestly is a huge problem. We should support less conventional families, but we shouldn’t “disrupt” the ideal. We should encourage it.

That’s very admirable of them, but are they volunteering in the inner cities?

Just imagine how much change these protesters could bring to the improvised black communities if they used their time volunteering instead of protesting.

Do you (any of you) honestly believe that the women who founded BLM hope their sons grow up to father children but not be dads? That their daughters have children out of wedlock with no father in the picture?
Do you honestly think that is what these women hope for their children?
What would make you think that I would defend something they promoted but which I disagreed?
I can easily say now I will not agree with all of their wishes. I estimate I'll agree with about 67.4%.
What is ignorant is all the people who categorically say they disagree with 100%.

@VolStrom. He definitely overflowed empathy as he mocked someone for being a roofer and went on to brag about some million dollar bus he supposedly paid cash for.

But that didn't indicate emotional dysfunction at all.

Not at all.

I had to go and read some of that. Ric Flair must have taken hold of his keyboard.

For whom do I feel empathy? Every other human being who also feels empathy. For all others I feel sadness for their incompleteness, shallowness and lack of heart

Weird that someone so “full of empathy” constantly attacks, name calls, and hates others just because they don’t agree politically

We need to stop incarcerating so many people for non-violent crimes. If y'all are really committed to keeping the nuclear family together then perhaps we should all be pushing to help those with drug problems instead of sending them to jail for years.

And how do you propose helping someone who doesn’t want help?

What do we do? What CAN we do? The youth of this country is out there burning it to the ground...WHY???

What can you do, nothing. Worry about you and yours.

Screw everyone else. Unfortunately, there is no other answer.

Get as much money as you deem necessary, and then turn off the world. Work like a dog, sacrifice, and work more, save. Find people who can help you take that money and make more of it.

This is the only answer sadly. As a human, as an American, you care. That is where it needs to stop. Real security and real control only lies within your life, and no matter how decent a human one might be, again, sadly, you need to just concentrate on your life, and block out all the rest.

That's comforting, that is freeing. No matter what the rest of this country is doing or does, I really do not care. That I have the ability to say screw it, is the best feeling in the world, because no matter what crazy and intolerable things are going to affect the masses, it won't me. That is piece of mind and priceless.

Oh, the 77 year old anonymous wealth-and-sex-bragging was a sight to behold. It's still there. Follow the comment links on some of the quotes I threw up there. Oh, and he was mocking Volstrom for being a roofer, all in preparation for lauding his virtuous empathy and depth while calling others out for their shallowness and lack of empathy today.

I’ll be polite and say you have a real reading comprehension problem. Actually no that’s not it you passively aggressively alter the intent of my posts with your fake interpretations and then all the sheep go baaaaaaahhhh. And your alterations are made to your cherry picked replies after leaving out the absurdity of the post to which I replied. I never mocked Volstrom as a roofer. I asked him if he was the roofer. Nice deflection all of which is designed to avoid my post to you that you substantiated my systemic racist post with your own true story and in your typical self glorified brilliance you didn’t even know it

And before you come back with I don’t get to you - - I don't try to get to you. Other than the absurdity of your playing god you mean nothing to me. Just another sociopath personality. But we both know as everyone else knows - I do get to you god II. How apoplectic would you get if I tried? Go curl up in the fetal position and suck your thumb for a while. You’ll be OK. Left, right , breathe , repeat.

The perceived requirement that a nuclear family is necessary.
You see it in the PF.
We all realize that a well functioning nuclear family is preferable.....as do BLM.
We are also well aware that a functioning nuclear family isn't always possible.
Hell, it seems that half the people in the PF have been divorced, have step-kids, etc.
Click to expand...

I don’t understand what you are getting at. What do they mean by necessary? Required? Essential? Where does BLM state that the nuclear family is preferable?

Those people need to look in the mirror and clean up their own act instead of waiting for someone to do it for them. Would it be easier for me to lay on my ass , drink beer, fish all day , never work, take the government handouts. Hell yeah, but that's not the road I decided to take. I decided to be a responsible American.

Don't want a drug problem, don't start using.

No sympathy anymore, you know what you are doing, and what risks exist, and no, you aren't the anomaly, and yes, you too, will become addicted, you aren't that special or strong or immune to the reality of whatever substance you decide to take.

Responsibility........accountability........you aren't responsible enough, then you will be held accountable ultimately by the addiction you chose to delve into.

Totally agree.
Rand Paul is pushing for this. The libertarian candidate is pushing for this. (You’ll vote for Biden)

But when you say y’all, where are Pelosi and crew? It was Clinton that pushed for increases in policing and three strikes. What has a democratic congress done about private prisons? Eight years of Obama?

The democrats are all just as power hungry and want oppressive laws. It’s their laws and policies that created much if not most of this system.

VolProf! Welcome back.

So you did sober up from the Viagra high and feel more than a bit of embarrassment when the blood flow returned to your brain. Well, at least that much is encouraging.

We can respect that almost as much as the fact that you paid a million cash for each of your shag wagons.

Well, not incarcerating them for possessing drugs seems like a good start. I doubt it's very easy to get a decent job with a criminal record too.

Most people in actual prison for drugs are there because of other crimes too or drug dealing. But to get someone off drugs it’s very laborious and expensive and they have to want help and they have to give up being around triggers (like family and friends)

My dad ran a jail ministry..... anyone needing work after getting out of jail..... dad would put them to work and promised that he would teach them to be a brick mason if they lasted 6 months.... my dads company travelled doing specialized work all over the southeast and residential as well.... the most someone made it was three days.... it is hard to make someone work that doesn’t want to work.
