Not when it doesn't fit the "contrarianism is true intelligence" ideal.

Eznark does it better. JayDubya's an inferior imitation.

You banned yourself, now go away.

I am only going to talk about this once.

As a black man I am being asked to place my faith in a justice system that has never placed their faith is my people. The number of blacks in prison is all the proof you need to back this statement up. 

I don't know what happened that day, there is some rather convincing proof both men acted incorrectly. However, mistakes should not lead to being shot multiple times.  In addition there is no way it should have took so long to give us the name of the officer involved...none...you committed the killing, you deserve to be known.

I will respect the verdict but I will not respect the process. It is my duty as an American to accept the fact this situation was handled, correctly or not. I do hope we challenge this verdict and will contribute to anyone who is starting a fund to LEGALLY challenge this verdict.


Now to the riots:

First off FUCK CNN, they are demonizing our people. If you don't see it you're blind. The Riots were MUCH SMALLER than anticipated. Pay attention to the shots from last night. They took 30 different angle shots on the same burning car and building area. Unacceptable. In addition Don Lemon is a fucking embarrassment to my race and my people. I have no use for this company who uses our struggle to improve ratings while demonizing us at the same time.

Secondly, why were the white people looting not questioned by CNN? I saw more than one of them grabbing products off store shelves. Interesting.

Third: My people must STOP using travesty for temporary self improvement. A man dying is no fucking reason to loot cigarettes and beer. Stop it.

Moving Foward:

I spoke with my children for 2 hours this morning about this day, making me late for work and them late for school. We are not there yet as a country and this incident just set us back 3 steps on both sides.  We need to peacefully discuss these matters rather then pointing fingers and throwing punches. We've tried that the last 140 years, it doesn't work.  Now is the time to study MLK and Gandhi not Malcolm X and the Klan. We must rise above the petty and focus on the solution. Educate not attack. We have to use this to build a new bridge and take the old rickety one down.

You shut up, this is clearly important.

Yes, parading around what you consider as an online "victory" is very important.

To be fair, you guys were raging assholes.  See thread.

Nobody fucking won here, grow up.

Originally?  Because Something Was Wrong On The Internet.  To appeal to reason and calm and waiting for evidence.  After seeing the responses, then and in the wake of last night, I was clearly appealing to those devoid of reason. 

At this point?  Pouring salt.

So. The country has said that black lives don't matter with this decision. Thus we have no one defending us. But now isn't the time for reading Malcolm X? Drop that MLK and Gandhi fellatio. You say it hasn't worked yet clearly MLK didn't work either. More than that, Malcolm and the Panthers makes white people scared.  Scared white people are scary and an embarrassment. Except this time, it's not the 60's and 70's and we've got the Internet and just about EVERYONE hates America. The story sells itself.

I'm sick and tired of people even uttering MLK's name in situations like this. Especially black people. For a man to give everything he had - his life, his freedoms - for people to just bring out because they didn't understand his message and can only remember a speech is mockery.

Anyways, this thing is turning me into something i don't want to be. I was talking to Esch last night about the last few months, I ultimately don't like white people. There are exceptions, but some of my thoughts in my head are really weighing me down, and I fear this will one day turn into hate.

Buy guns en mass and form militias. Use our constitutional rights. Amendments 1 and 2 will allow this. When blacks started buying guns in record numbers in the 60's gun limit laws were passed. The good thing about white supremacy is that white people are predictable. We know what will happen if what I described happens.

I see where you're going, I really do. However I think we need to become more involved locally in every day matters like they did in the 60's more than we need to call in the Panthers man. Make every time we are slighted be known by the many.

I do have firearms. Most of my family does. That came from grandpa who always said "A gun isn't a weapon, it's a tool and has a specific use"

Scared people react man. Are you prepared to lose members of your family/love life/friends to the cause? Because that's step #1.....you must be prepared to lose all that is sacred to you before you walk out the door.

Defense first. We should be able to have people defending our communities without resorting to callings the cops. The NoI did and still does this to this day. What started this in the first place was some white ass cop going into a neighborhood and telling black people to stop walking in the street or get arrested. If we have self sustaining defense, that shit won't fly.

Defense first. If we have no defense, what's the point in organizing?

I get it. But again, are you ready to watch your family get shot defending the cause? Brutal I know, but if you strap up so are they. And some people lack the calmness for that trade. I personally would die if my kids or wife were shot because I was out carrying my gun in public. I know this.

Maybe not my family, but at this point what do we have to lose? They're gunning for our families anyways. You think your family is safe because you call the cops? A sister was killed just the other day by police for being bi-polar. Your family won't be safe either way. It's time to do something.

What's distinguished mentally-challenged is that you CAN'T name your congressman but you want to effect change. It's like playing connect four and not being able to count. It makes them part of the problem, not the solution. Obama said the same goddamn thing I did last night. Listen to him if you won't listen to me.

And watch the distinguished mentally-challenged fellow word, it's a bad look.

Everybody is moody here, I am included. But I'm not going to sit here and holler "STRAP UP" let's go to war.....call me as being on a soapbox, please. Read your own bullshit before you judge mine, Malcolm X.

Nah I read it.
I'm just not convinced that changing the electorate will fix this. The issue to me is that you have a police force that has gone from viewing citizens as people to protect to people who be protected against. Changing the representative does nothing to fix this. There needs to be a paradigm shift in how police engages the citizenry. Either way I meant no offense.

Did you just tell me that I don't know who Ted Poe is? The same dude I have tried to get out of office multiple times?

Not "you" as in "you"....the 80% who come out of the woodwork to protest but can't do anything but reproduce violent thoughts.

And with that, I'm gonna exit this thread. The last thing I intended was to offend my own. I apologize.

So now saying you think people are defenseless and should buy guns that means you're on a soapbox? I have only put out my ideas. You have came in with intellectual superiority from minute one.

Nah I read it.
I'm just not convinced that changing the electorate will fix this. The issue to me is that you have a police force that has gone from viewing citizens as people to protect to people who be protected against. Changing the representative does nothing to fix this. There needs to be a paradigm shift in how police engages the citizenry. Either way I meant no offense.

This would not wring hollow if Mike Brown WASN'T one of the guys citizens needed to be protected against.

But he was, so it does.
Even if he was a thug. Last night I saw the citizenry tear gassed and several armored vehicles that were more at home in Iraq than they were on the streets of Missouri.  Further this does nothing to discuss the disproportionate focus on blacks by the police. 600 stops of whites compared to 4300+ stops of blacks? The racial focus disparity is what's here that and a feeling that the police have carte blanche against the citizenry. If you think this is just about Mike Brown you've not been paying attention friend.

I don't know, contain and arrest him when he does?

Mike Brown is pretty contained.


Your bloviating tough guy shit is unimpressive.  If you attack someone, they are allowed to defend themselves.
With equivalent force to stop the threat. Not 'open season'.

JayDub, I get your need to feel like our society will protect you from unsavories, but if it was a cac he'd have been tazed in serious likelihood.  So there's an issue worth examining beyond Wilsons guilt under the law. Do you agree? Are you, for example in support of laws to have police officers wear cameras to provide more clear evidence in the future?

The disproportionate amount of black arrests and imprisonment has an interesting side effect: Felons can't buy guns. One could infer that some local governments are systematically disarming minority communities through the justice system.

Disappointed by the looting but I understand. I think part of it is helplessness but I think there's another group willing to use anything as an excuse to get free shit. So fuck that segment.

At the end of the day you should know what the score is by now. I'm all ears for ways to go forward, but when it comes to police there's not much you can do. The kid could have been white and Wilson would still get away. I know the article has been posted earlier but it's clear at this point that the badge gives you immunity in too many fucking cases. And prosecutors, many of whom understandably have deep professional relationships with cops, often have no interest in crossing them.

I feel bad for Wallace's family.

So you have a need to feel as though the police can operate with the force necessary to protect their livelihood and that of the community, nothing wrong with that. A group of people in this community through various interactions and histories don't feel as though they can trust the authorities to protect them and their livelihoods. Their anger comes from their needs not being met. Demonizing the looter (or any human for that matter) is easy, but what is needed for harmony is to meet the need for order without interfering with the need for a large group in a community to feel safe. I personally think personal cameras on police officers with a proper legal structure that keeps it from infringing on citizens rights while holding officers accountable would be constructive in meeting the needs of the community for safety and justice.

Being at each other's throats doesn't meet anyone's needs.

And forgive me for using cac in this context, a simple colloquialism

why should they value property when last night it was made clear that their lives aren't valued? This isn't just a mike brown thing. It's a historical thing. It has to do with feeling powerless. That said, some are going to do it just to do it. Never mind there are white looters as well. Finally, if you had paid attention to the news when this first started you would know that there are anarchists out there starting trouble.

Do not assume it's the blacks or even people from ferguson starting this.

If in the US of A, avoid Ferguson.

And definitely avoid any jurisdiction where Jaydubya is in a position of authority.
