  1. Past hour
  2. I believe they dangle carrots to 1) keep the conspiracy theorists occupied & 2) justify spending money on UAP/UFO investigations. The Golden Dome in Israel is an example of that technology in use. The US helped build it. The current administration has talked about spending money to build a Golden Dome here. Nevermind the continental US (CONUS) hasn't been invaded by foreigners since the 1800s. For the military history buffs, Pearl Harbor is not CONUS.๐Ÿ˜‰ The stealth technology US military aircraft has is close to having a force field around it. They can attack without being detected by radar systems.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  3. Welcome back! ๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿฝ I was in HIST class while Troy was tinkering and missed the upgrade entirely!
  4. ProfD Or maybe he's still trying to climb out of the rubble of the OLD website format that was demolished without warning....lol. Right before everything collapsed, I read something about Troy changing his mind about updating or reformatting the website. Next thing I know, the site vanished and when it re-appeared it required me to use some old email address for over a decade ago to access it again....which took me 2 months to dig up, lol.
  5. Today
  6. @richardmurray did you do any research on TicTok and China, or are gonna ignore that? Conflating all of these people (Frederick Douglass, Clarence Thomas, Michelle Obama, Clarence Williams, STanley Couch , You , Michael Jordan are all in the spirit of James Forten) you are painting with a very broad brush. That shortcut ignores is easy and avoids nuance which leads to false conclusions. Your rejection of the we ignored the fact that the "we" is responsible for all human progress. If is built into us, sure in can also lead to conflict but ethnicities and civilization would be impossible without it.
  7. So was it my imagination remembering him in drag? Just a garden variety cis-gendered gay dude huh? Going back to the original. @aka Contrarian It seems rather than entertaining the sisters (it is a Black platform) it seems the article was designed to rile them up by rubbing in their faces how intentional Miss Ann has been about beating their time. How are we served by that? If people need diversions from the BS of the day, folks can try reading a book ๐Ÿ˜‰
  8. At @ProfD, that is an interesting reaction? Why do you think they bothered to released that video? So you think the US has force field technology now? It is possible, but sheesh why keep that a secret? You know the Trump administration would do more civilization ending if our aircraft had force fields. ๐Ÿ˜‰
  9. My youngests were born in 92 and nd 93 and we lived in BK until 2001 or so. My car was stolen in 1992 that was the only problem we had, but I was in Park Slope so that might have been the difference. I remember thinking how much better Brooklyn was than when we were in High School. From my experience, Brooklyn (the entire city) was much worse in the 1970s. I know in the 90s they started locking brothers up left and right.
  10. Nothing is eating at me. In the forum I have always said the black populace in the usa is a collection of tribes, disimilar from each other , which is a heritage, what is carreid from the very infancy of the usa. James Forten was a business owner, black, fought alongside whites colonist who aided or abetted in the enslavement of black people , to initialize the usa. Harry Wahsington was enslaved to george washington, James Forten's general and leader, and fought against the creation of the USA and lef tto Nova Scotia and then to Sierra Leone. The ninety percent of black people enslaved to white colonists who remained enslaved after the usa was initialized. who i am 100% certain hated whites and the usa as James BAldwin admitted to his father, who retained said black folsk dislike of whites and dislike of the usa or absent desire to be part of the usa, . I paraphrase, my father never once spoke ill or attacked a white man and hated white people to the bone to the day he died. And Frederick Douglass, Clarence Thomas, Michelle Obama, Clarence Williams, STanley Couch , You , Michael Jordan are all in the spirit of James Forten. That is ok. No crime, but I must admit that there is no WE in the black populace in the usa, and never was, and i think it is important, because it is the truth. And i think the truth is always warranted.
  11. Magic's son EJ appears to just be a gay dude. Don't believe he's an athlete. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  12. If Congress is investigating UAP/UFO, it's a distraction from everything else the current administration is doing. Yet, none of these countries has released those recordings or material proof of UAPs/UFOs. Unless the US has bought them off...monopoly. My 1st thought upon hearing that a Tomahawk missile bounced off a UAP was that the US military must have been testing new technology.๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž
  13. Brooklyn was a bloodbath in the 90s -I had to hit the deck a couple of times with the twins in my arms because they were shooting in the playground across from my Bed-Stuy home. One night DEA and Narc cops from NYPD jumped my mother's fence chasing drug dealers. Her Clinton-Hill brownstone was on the corner and our drive-in garage sat on the side of the house that bordered our backyard. It was a perfect getaway. Nope you didn't have to be in the drug trade to get runover by it. I was terrified for my girls. You were lucky to be oblivious to the crime - it was ugly. I'll never forget walking to the J Train and stepping over brainmatter. This became a regular occurence for me. That's exactly why we left. I wanted better for my girls. I got it too! The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) 1990-1994 Actually it started in the 1980s maybe even before my father's off-duty shooting The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) 1980-1985
  14. @ProfD I might have missed it; did you ever express an opinion on the UAP that was hit with a Tomahawk missile only for it to bounce off/ Clearly something was there. Clearly it was displayed technology far superior to what is known based on how it manuvered. The only thing we don't know is where it came from. It could be a number of things, but given What I saw "Alien" is not off the table. What do you think?
  15. I guess I could look it up, but I don't want to shift through the trash. Hi Magic's some gay and/or trans? I seem to remember seeing him dressed like a woman. If he is trans should he be allowed to play in the WNBA with the cisgender women?
  16. "a Lie" Whoa, hold on there buddy! Those are strong words. The reality is that TikTok does not exist in China. I don't know who are are talking to in China, but if they ask for money -- run. ByteDance runs a completely different app in China with much stricter regulations designed to educate Chinese under 18. Under 14 you can ony use it for 40 minutes a day. No we get the "trash" with the infinite scroll of stupid videos keeping kids locked in for hours a day. What is eating at you man? Putting me in the same category as Clarence Thomas... that is almost as bad as calling me a liar. First where do YOU choose to live? That by definition is your home. It is disingenuous to rail against other across centuries not less about what they call home. this country is my home and I will fight to make it better. You can disagree but until you are living somewhere other than the "good ole USA" your admonishment falls flat.
  17. I didn't know about this I lived more than a decade of my adult life in BK. Maybe you had to be in "the life" for it to be a problem? I actually emailed @Pioneer1 to now avail. I hope he is OK.
  18. Are you working toward a PhD @Mel Hopkins?
  19. It is ridiculous for the USA to pretend that China is an adversary. False equivalence. Most prisoners are imprisoned for a reason. Sure. There's always room fo mr critique & complaint. Change usually requires action. Humans have the ability reason, rationalize & control themselves. Not the same consequences but in both sports & war, there are winners & losers.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  20. Exactly.. Neither has ever subsided..... Of course to those who consume officialdom without any or very little questions....it did sudside UAP is no longer a distraction....Congress and NASA investigating and turning resources there. Possible the same... No country has a monopoly on UFOs.....every country has reports...... Many countries Recordings. US has the Best Recordings Hollywood ....Art and Magic Art is often how the Truth is told
  21. Yesterday

  23. @ProfD war is ridiculous? no... peace side war will always exist, neither is good or bad, either take infinite forms, and neither ever end. based on your logic every prisoner in a prison should be trying to escape. Doing something to attempt to force change does not deny the quality of environment warrants a negative critique. it is natural for all species, all children of earth to be fruitful and multiply no matter the environment, to restate, being fruitful or multiplying has no relationship to the quality of environment, humans ... all species/children of earth will do that as long as they exist. no it isn't , a sport, whether chess or basketball, by default, never has the consequences or prosequences that war or peace has.
  24. INVITING ALL WRITERS TO VOTE FOR THE WINNER!!! https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfrUbWulo0AUaWmw9650uZjgjT7XNntJkvQXmWkjqX1mn6XXg/viewform?usp=publish-editor #glory #usa250 #alexanderjohnson #watn #wherearetheynow #crliterature #hddeviant #richardmurray #richardmurrayhumblr
  25. Not officially released but similar images of UAPs/UFOs have been floating around since the early days of tabloids. Like Big Foot, the UAF/UFO thing subsided in the early 2000s. It seems to have resurfaced when the political folks need a good distraction from their other BS. Not really considering the pics look similar to old tabloid magazines.๐Ÿ˜ Again, it's interesting that one country (USA) has a monopoly on UAPs/UFOs. There's a few words for it too but one comes to mind...Hollywood.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  26. The USA is my birthplace & homeland. However, I'm not asking other Black folks to embrace the USA as their homeland. I would encourage Black folks who h8te the USA for whatever reason to either 1) fight to make it better or 2 ) move elsewhere. Thr gaslighting is global. The point of this thread is pointing out the ridiculousness of adversarial relationship between USA-China. Sure. They all have access to enough information & technology to know the truth. The fundamental question remains what are they doing to force change. If being poor means accepting the status quo, then the solution must be to remain in the holding pattern of making the best of life under the given conditions & circumstances. Considering that people continue procreating & bringing more lives into a poor existence suggests that being poor isn't too bad. Humans have been dominating each other in one way or another for a very long time. It's like a sport.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  27. Was the then release official? I do not know about these in particular... Starting From the round about the 40's ....pictures and films have been withheld from the public That is because officialdom is hoarding and curating the info to maintain control of independent thought
