  1. Could it have something to do with, oh, I don't know, income disparity? And maybe that income disparity is due in large part to the decimation of urban manufacturing due to insane trade policies that ship jobs overseas and stagnate wages?
  2. Lol, rules for protests. Smh... Why do they 'commit more fuckery'?
  3. Trumpeting "black-on-black" crime doesn't address how unarmed black people have been disproportionately brutalized by police. And the general homicide rate doesn't justify police violence against black people. Railing against "black-on-black" crime diverts attention from the issue of police brutality, while reinforcing the idea that black people are hopelessly criminal by nature. Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani on NBC's Meet the Press used this language last November. "White police officers won't be there if you weren't killing each other 70% of the time," Giuliani said. In reality, when homicides are broken down by race, according to the U.S. Department of Justice, white people kill other white people just as much as black people kill other black people. Meanwhile, as the Huffington Post noted, analysis from ProPublica shows that young black males are 21 times more likely to be shot dead by police than their white counterparts. https://mic.com/articles/115322/9-excuses-people-are-no-longer-allowed-to-make-about-police-violence#.ZBlqQzvuR
  4. Raising awareness is doing something tangible. Y'all oughta write a handbook for acceptable forms of protest by minorities.
  5. So he's not protesting what YOU want him to protest. Interesting.
  6. So you're saying it's okay that cops kill blacks at a higher rate than the general population? Also, are you saying that one cannot protest oppression unless they've experienced it personally?
  7. He and Jane sold another property in order to buy that one.
  8. Ill pay you, even though the game was rigged. PayPal?
  9. Presence of THC in your body is a prerequisite for employment.
  10. Any of you fucks know how to operate a molecular still, a rotary evaporator, or a passive closed loop liquid hydrocarbon extractor? How about a gas chromatograph?
  11. And these would be the same guys that would deem any such actions treason. They don't want our protest in any form, all they want is our silence. Pretty clear at this point.
