Right. It is a normal reaction that most folks will try to run away from gunfire. Unfortunately, someone could get crushed as folks are rushing to get away from danger. My issues are 1) using guns and other weapons to solve to solve petty differences and 2) lack of regard for human life. Killing someone and maybe even innocent bystanders for nothing is a terrible decision to make. 😎

it was a joke.😁😎

Earlier this evening I was helping my buddy next door repair his fence. He and his wife are Haitian. The neighbor and I chopped it up the unrest in his home country. He also mentioned that greed and corruption and colorism were their main problems down there. Problems will always arise when people are either rich or poor and there's nothing in the middle.😎

The psychological torture can't be too bad if the convict isn't willing to take matters into their own hands and turn the lights out.😎

They were preaching 100 years ago.🤣 Those men have been resting for a long time now. The generations who received their teachings and messages figured AfroAmericans were better off with integration and civil rights and affirmative action. Over the several decades, there's been no shortage of brilliant AfroAmericans who have matriculated through institutions of higher learning and they've pursued all types of careers. Similarly, there's been no shortage of AfroAmericans who helped to build everything in America. We have that knowledge too. IMO, AfroAmericans do not lack intelligence or work ethic. There's no vision plan or design for what we need. Theres no champion or leadership. A hospital or school doesn't get built just thinking about it. Requires an architect, engineer, builder, money, materials and manpower. AfroAmericans can cover every position on the team. We just need motivation and incentive. I bet we could get a whole bunch of those same lazy people to work on building that hospital or school just by dangling a lucrative hourly rate.😎

True. Interestingly, folks sentenced to a life in prison or death row still have a desire to live.😎

https://www.foxnews.com/world/who-barbecue-gang-leader-wreaking-havoc-haiti @Pioneer1, dysfunctional Black folks arent unique to the USA.🤣 All h8ll is breaking lose in Haiti. The de facto dude in charge calls himself Barbecue. Last week, the wife of President Jovenel Moïse was charged along with others in his 2021 assassination. A country run by Black folks can't get right. Of course, foreigners interfere in their affairs but there's no shortage of greed and corruption among the Haitian people too. 😎

Exterminating enemies and instilling fear. Whether intentional or not, Hamas declared war when they killed !,500 Israelis. Israel is finishing the war Hamas started.😎

Bummer. Hopefully pain relievers are helping in the battle. In a parallel world, you would have 1) ordered groceries online and had delivery or 2) wrote out a list and sent one of the great-grand-chil'ren to the grocery store.🤣 That's neither here or there because the reality is a knee injury. Enjoy cooking and/or eating whatever you bought from the store.🙂 Most importantly, rest and recuperate.🙏🏿🤗😎

I watched the SOTU address. POTUS PJB accounted well for himself to those concerned about his age. At times POTUS PJB did sound like an old geezer yelling at kids to stay off his lawn. He has this way of spurting out words in rapid-fire succession as if he needs to run to the bathroom but wants to make a point first. POTUS PJB didn't offer Black voters anything new. He did reassure us that Ukraine and Israel will continue getting our money. Both POTUS PJB and If Orange Julius have secured their party nominations. Rematch of 2020 in November. Rock 'em Sock 'em robots between two old geezers. One stammers. One stinks supposedly. Let's get it over with already. 🥱😎

The intent to kill other people would be a declaration of war against them. 😎

It's a new word Merriam-Webster is thinking about adding to the dictionary. They're also considering prefixes uni-, tri-, quadri-, centi-, sexti-, septi-, octi- and nani-.🤣😎

Right. Angry folks stirred up by a zealot or media or some combination of both. No goal. Just an airing of grievances against others.😎

Agreed. Since I showed up on this forum, I've mentioned severally that AfroAmericans should already have a solid economic infrastructure which would include everything required to survive. Being a gross consumer and non-producer is detrimental. I'm inclined to think AfroAmericans don't see the necessity of having our own sh8t. Either way, it's a sad reality. I don't understand why anybody enables or communicates with lazy azz men or women. I have zero bandwidth for useless people.😁😎

Most AfroAmericans aren't hard-headed. If/when *can't get right* n8gglets are encountered, it doesn't make much sense trying to explain anything to them.😁😎

There was a time that prisoners could get word back to the streets via phone calls and kites (letters). Most lifers are spending 23 hours in a cell and 1 hour of recreation by themselves. The movie version of prisoners as Trustees doesn't really exist anymore.😎

I was referring to China as a military adversary. Of course, having access to personal data on Americans helps with cyber attacks on our systems.😎

TikTok is majority owned by ByteDance which is a Chinese company. As China is seen as the greatest adversary besides Russia, there's consensus among American elected officials to be in lockstep against them. However, a number of US investors are making money from TikTok so it remains to be seen if there will truly be a USA ban of the platform if it doesn't divest Chinese interest.😎

I'm not totally convinced that Black or Brown Latinos truly side with FBA/ADOS. In fact, I believe they want to replace FBA/ADOS in the populace. Black/Brown Latinos are infiltrating city politics. They can fight for themselves.😎

I voted no. I don't think FBA/ADOS elected officials or Black people should be putting on the cape when it comes to defending other groups of people. The Latino community has more than enough representation throughout NYC to fight for themselves in pushing a counter narrative against the white media regarding their criminalization.😎

The civil war I'm referring to would be mass shootings, riots and insurrections happening in multiple places at the same time. As long as white folks aren't agitated January 6th style, the status quo will remain. We'll get the monthly mass shootings. No civil war though.😎

Whoever they have grievance with would be targets. Again, I hope it never happens.😎

Watched the Forbes interview enough to know that it mentioned Dr. West has made about $15 million over 30 years. Detailed how his bread was made and lost. Running for POTUS will pull the whole portfolio out of the closet.😎

Facts. They've got the most guns.😁😎

Life without the possibly of parole is usually given to the most serious offenders. Instead of becoming a trustee or seeking higher privilege inside the prison those individuals should be trying to discourage others from coming there.😎
