  1. Yield not to temptation. ๐Ÿ˜ Don't wanna get set up and knocked over: Especially considering your affinity for having access to those exotic pets, er, women.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  2. The comedy would be watching him going through all types of sh8t to stay out of trouble and keep the house. Script approved....call up Ice Cube, Katt Williams, Chris Tucker, Mike Epps, Tracy Morgan and Corey Holcomb.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  3. Person has enough sense and ability to become a homeowner i.e. buy a property but so crazy that they should not have any weapons. I see a movie script there.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  4. Willie D has been dropping dope commentary for a long time now.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  5. Yep. I see what looks like the image of a wolf in your yard. Grab your gun (see sista thread).๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  6. Exactly. Unfortunately, that thing has turned a bunch of folks into lemmings and sheep.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  7. Camera settings have to be adjusted in order to take a decent picture of the moon especially when it is bright.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  8. Easy to overlook and take for granted. Black folks could be a more powerful voting bloc If we were actually demanding tangibles. We have not put forth an agenda to which politicians can be held accountable. Otherwise, we're just exercising our right to vote. We get nothing return. Again, Black folks are easy marks. Other groups of people have zero respect for us. We haven't done anything to correct it. The biggest *problem* is there are too many operatives among Black folks selling us out.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  9. Think Troy and Admin are the same. I believe he had an issue with his password. Maybe so. Not suggesting that @Troy is one of them but there are many folks don't believe every homeowner should have a gun. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  10. White folks definitely care. They think the immigrant apocalypse is coming to the Big Apple. As if it hasn't been there for a long time already.๐Ÿคฃ It would be awesome if he actually had enough power to make their lives better. That way, we could look at every Black politician side-eye for what they have failed to do for their own people. Right. Black and white folks might continue getting whatever they asked for and/or have been receiving. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  11. Sure. On could make that argument. Robbing a bank isn't a form of wealth redistribution. Especially when the take isn't multimillions or billions of dollars.๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž
  12. @richardmurray, the real question to you is will Mayor-Elect Mamdani be former mayor Bill de Blasio 2.0 or better or worse? I know it's way too early to tell. Just wondering from your NYC perspective.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  13. Even when I don't use emoticons in my posts, read them with a sense of humor.๐Ÿ˜ The voters didn't demand anything from Mayor-Elect Mamdani. Those who voted seemed to be fine with Mayor-Elect Mamdani telling them what he's going to do. i mentioned the list of things Mamdani claims he'll do. I'm not stating or suggesting he can successfully do any of it. Again, take the too serious cap off when reading my posts.๐Ÿ˜‰ As usual, you don't concur with much of what I've typed because you're reading it through a prism of your own design steeped in seriousness. Lighten up. You want to turn threads into a scholastic exercise. That's not my reason for engaging in the dialog. I enjoy hanging out at the AALBC coffeeshop and I contribute accordingly. Otherwise, your threads would have zero participation.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  14. Over several generations, good enough has managed to suffice for most households. The book suggested that every household should be run like a business. I wonder if that particular book also mentioned that most businesses fail within the first 5 years or so for one reason or three. Any type of *advanced* technology is more expensive to repair. Surely, people could learn home economics and electronics and home improvement, etc., in order to save money on everything from eating out to car repairs and home maintenance. The reality is that the average person only has a limited amount of bandwidth. The majority of people on the planet are average. IMO, people are better off using their time and energy on their purpose and/or pursuing those things of interest to them. The wonderful thing about the world in which we live is there is no shortage of individual pursuits. Live life to the fullest because our time here is very short in the grand scheme of things.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  15. It is a done deal. NYC Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani won in a landslide. Starting january 1st, it remains to be seen what Mamdani will do as mayor of NYC. If successful, rent freeze, free buses, affordable healthcare, more teachers and other things will benefit the citizens of NYC. The white media is losing their minds over Mayor-Elect Mamdani because he seemingly came out of left field. Showed up like a unicorn. He doesn't fit the red or blue narrative. Democrats were never all-in on Mayor-Elect Mamdani. Now, they will be studying his recipe to pick and choose the ingredients and type of candidates needed to win future elections in certain areas.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  16. In the event that someone breaks into the house and/or poses a threat of hurt, harm or danger to the family is reason enough to own a gun. Dangerous and/or rabid wildlife on the premises or near it is collateral damage to gun owners.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  17. Winsome Earle-Sears is currently LT Gov of VA. The clip has been effected but those are her very own words. POTUS OJ nor the GOP machine really endorsed Earle-Sears. She definitely lost by a country mile.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  18. Nope. I don't think our beautiful sista won't be getting any praise from the NRA and/or those who strongly believe in the 2nd amendment. I just hope the PETA folks and other animal lovers don't come after her with their pitchforks because she shot and killed a monkey on the loose. Again, I'm glad she handled that situation without waiting for permission from the dominant society.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  19. Truncated version of the movie "Outbreak".๐Ÿ˜ Mom said "the other one [monkeys] might be in the woods watching me". ๐Ÿคฃ Love the fact that she did not wait around for slow azz game warden or law enforcement to show up. Mom grabbed her heat and neutralized the threat. Protected her house by any means necessary. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  20. They are all in the same boat drinking that Kool-Aid.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  21. Women are gonna run around snatching off code Black folks from the street and readjusting them. Those ladies were a criminal enterprise. Nothing really sociopolitical about them.๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž
  22. ICE isn't even checking cards and paperwork. They snatching up folks who fit the profile. This isn't broken windows. It's more like shaking trees.๐Ÿคฃ Don't waste any time or energy worrying about them. Stay out of their way too. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  23. Exactly. It is best to spend little or no time around any type of negative energy. Nothing constructive or productive comes out of it.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  24. Have been ongoing for over a century here in the USA. As mentioned previously, accounting is primarily used for businesses. Running a household doesn't require knowledge of accounting. There is no lack of knowledge. There is no confusion. People of all classes have bought into the economic systembas it has been constructed.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  25. Absolutely I do understand. Poor white folks have been brainwashed into believing they're still better than Black folks under the system of racism white supremacy. That's why Black folks should have very minimal to no contact with them.๐Ÿ˜Ž
