Trust me.... Most of the same silly sell-out niggaz who supported Trump for the past several years, STILL support him. It doesn't matter how much evidence you bring or how logical your argument is that Trump is harmful to AfroAmericans and his policies and very presence in the Whitehouse was harmful....they won't listen to or believe it. They are BRAINWASHED. Most Black Trump supporters are literally brainwashed by fake news, fake information, fake statistics, ect.....that tell them how great he was or how NON-RACIST he was even when all of the actual evidence points in the opposite direction. I spent hours arguing with some clown the other week who insisted that Black people had the "lower unemployment rate in history" under Trump. Lower than Bill Clinton I guess.... Lower than Franklin D. Roosevelt with his New Deal and Public Works Projects that put millions of unemployed Black folks to work I guess..... They will ignore history and just spout false stats and propaganda shamelessly with a silly grin on their faces like that cute ass Candace Owens.

Perspective is the only separation from the One.

Most heterosexual women want a masculine man. In a warped way, thugs. gangsters and athletes give off that vibe. A weak dude doesn't make a woman feel safe on his watch. A woman wants to feel protected from harm or danger. She wants to be satisfied in bed. There's a shortage of strong black men. As a result, some women are either sharing a man and/or satisfying their wants and needs by picking among the litter including those who are as Jay-Z rapped..."locked up, behind bars".

All you guys jolted by the sporadic incidents of mass shootings of black folks by white mental cases, have been spared the reality of what is happening in Chicagoland on a daily basis. Here, the only ones murdering black folks - and wounding and killing law enforcement officers in the course of traffic stops are black males. Among this element, it has also become standard procedure for arguments, be they ignited by road rage or personal beefs, to be settled by gun fire. When it comes to the ongoing crimes of car jackings and robberies, they are committed by black or brown males who are all armed with guns. Gang drive-bys also contribute to the mayhem. What easy access to guns has done is enable a significant portion of America's black male population to live and die by the trigger, and to survive off the loot of their crimes. Glamorizing black gun owners as Minute Men at the ready in case of a race war is like something out of a Spike Lee movie, starring Samuel L. Jackson. Fiction. Institutionalized racism is real and needs only an excuse to annihilate threats to its power.

@Stefan, I'm the proponent of blacks arming themselves and I've already stated that they do so legally and responsibly. For me, it doesn't matter whether it's open carry or home defense as along as the person meets the criteria above by taking a gun safety course. Black folks are getting shot regardless of whether they're unarmed or armed. Either way, we lose. Ultimately, owning and maintaining firearms is a personal decision. I respect the fact that it's not for everyone. I just hope scared azz black folks especially dudes don't come running up behind me looking for protection if/when sh8t goes sideways.

Black People always had the right to own guns. However, the cost of the actual firearm and the requirements for a clean criminal record always got in the way. During the 1960's, rifle toting Black Panthers always unnerved then-FBI director J. Edgar Hoover and at one time, even worried 36th President Lyndon B. Johnson. I’m honestly not sure that most can recall with any degree of accuracy when a few Blacks armed themselves in the 1960’s. Because I am certain that Joy Behar, although her heart might be in the right place, has no clue what she's talking about. I included a photo that shows Black Panthers carrying rifles on the steps of the Washington State capitol building in Olympia, Wash., in 1969. They were protesting the lack of carry permits. Black Panthers actually walked the streets in a few cities carrying rifles and other firearms in those days. Until police confronted them. This goes back to my original premise that when discussing this subject of arming Black people, one must always be specific. Is the firearm slated for Open Carry or Home Defense? But few detail their true feelings. They usually trot out “Blacks need to arm ourselves,” or “We need guns,” without giving more than a cursory thought about the ramifications of such behavior. Yes, Blacks can arm themselves. But I would not walk around with a firearm unless one has an ironclad carry permit. Philando Castile had a valid carry permit and look what happened to him. I bet others can cite additional victims. Tyisha Shanee Miller was shot 12 times by Riverside, Calif., police after she fell asleep in her disabled car with a gun in her lap, likely for protection. Her family believes she might have passed out from a seizure on the day she died, Dec. 28, 1998. Cops claimed they banged on the car windows with flashlights, screamed and tried to wake Tyisha when she suddenly grabbed the gun. She didn’t. The gun was never fired and a young 19-year old Black woman passed into eternity. Cops fired 23 bullets at Tyisha and she was hit 12 times, four times in the head. This is why I discourage Open Carry for Black people. There are just too many cases where Black people lost their lives due to scaredy-cat cops who were too impatient to wait a few more minutes. Contrast this incident with the cowardly cops in Uvalde, Texas. Now, would you believe that gun loving Blacks and Right Wing Whites actually got together to defend the Second Amendment? And they did this out in public? After gazing at the photos, ask yourselves, do you think YOU could get away with doing the same thing with just a group of Blacks? The link will take one to this news story. The photo below is of the Black Panthers in 1969. Armed Blacks and Right Wing Whites band together to defend the Second Amendment

It's refreshing to see us talk about solutions that should make up a political agenda. Too often we leave that to whites. I would add a few things. I'm no expert these are just opinions. 1. Fully fund and expand the power of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission to address widespread employment discrimination. 2. Pressure the Senate to pass the George Floyd Police Reform Act which among other things removes qualified immunity for police officers in civil suits. 3. Do the same with voting rights legislation like the John Lewis Voter Rights Act and the For the People Act that would stop voter suppression. When it comes to community development let's empower local governments and community groups by tying the amount of Federal funding for transportation, infrastructure, and block development grants to plans and progress towards poverty reduction, creation of living wage jobs, and reducing racial disparities. The cities, states, and towns, that have plans and meet goals are favored with funding. Furthermore, let's create and fully fund Federal/ Local partnerships to find and implement solutions to racial and economic inequality that fit unique circumstances. Lastly, fund community-based groups and programs with a track record of results. ` All these things will require a more effective and better coordinated black politics that combines propaganda, lobbying, voting, grassroots organizing, street protests, research, internal discussion, and debate. This will be long-term process with many of us never seeing the results. But that has always been the nature of our struggle. Will white people support any of this? No. Many of them will oppose us. But others will join us. More importantly we must continue to fight disrupting the normalcy and tranquility of this society until the powers that be meet our demands.
