  1. Do not deprive yourself of oxygen (hold your breath) waiting to see Black police officers arresting white folks for voter intimidation or anything without permission. For that reason, Black police officers won't be assigned to voting stations to monitor voter intimidation. But, they'll show up wth sirens blaring if someone breaks in line or steals a ballot. 🤣 Look no further than the January 6th insurrection. That video shows everything one needs to know about how white folks are handled by law enforcement. They were instructed to stand down. Do not fire a shot. January 6th would have been totally different if the rioters were people of color. It would have been a massacre with hundreds shot dead and/or imprisoned. There would be no investigation or senate select sub-committee hearings except to create a new public holiday...Put Em Down Day. White folks have privileges here that aren't extended or afforded to anyone else when it comes to crime and punishment. 😎
  2. Surely, several factors beyond intelligence determine the outcome of one's life (family, environment, education, self-esteem, drive, determination, opportunities and luck to name a few. We have a responsibility as human beings to insure that those who need the most help get it. That includes those who have limited mental and/or physical abilities. The choices one chooses to make is a different kettle. Regardless of circumstances, if one has been provided enough nurture to grow and they know better but choose not to be productive...the onus is on them. The blueprint for success has already been codified. Many AfroAmericans have worked it to positive effective in their lives individually. We just haven't translated it into ownership collectively i.e. wealth. The system of racism white supremacy is very real. It does not absolve AfroAmericans from doing whatever it takes to dismantling it. Mastering capitalism is a step in that direction.😎
  3. Yes, people have the power to choose what they do. Absolutely, but giving us the choice of where we live. Most of the inadequacies of capitalism occur because we practice a perverted form of rife with racism, cronyism, and greed.
  4. @Pioneer1, AfroAmericans have been in Cali for a long time. Like everywhere else in the USA, it's unfortunate that our folks didn't build an economic infrastructure out there. AfroAmericans should own a huge chunk of the entertainment industry and ancillary businesses feeding from it. 😎
  5. You should have saved this one for "Titty Tuesday"....lol.
