Non-Black Latina spits in a brutha's face and stabs him: Damn...... That hit hard. Who wants to bet money on this Mestiza Latina who stabbed that brutha, being either an illegal immigrant or "dreamer" child of one? And another thing. It looked like the owner of that deli or atleast the workers I saw in the story were non-Black Latinos as well. They MAY have been Dominican or Puerto Rican...but certainly not Black ones. Like I said ProfD, these people aren't our allies and they didn't come here to help us. IF Trum....IF...IF...IF...Trump were to round them up and send them back to Latin America...I wouldn't shed too many tears over it. How are they being here helping us?

I'm not talking about some Wakanda dream or pipe dream that could only be achieved by a Miracle or if all of a sudden Black folks unified under one banner. That would be wonderful, however what I just laid out was VERY do'able. More Black representation in Congress...especially in the Senate. More Black businesses. Establishing more connections with other Black communities around the globe to boost our economic progress and make us more international. Those things could have easily been achieve in the past 25 years. If not an actual Black (FBA) President, atleast an FBA vice president serving 2 terms and make sure we're represented in the Whitehouse. That could have happened before or after Obama.

Senators are skeptical of Trump's call for a bipartisan deal on Dreamers MmmmHmmmm...... Already Trump is showing signs of back pedaling on his mass deportation program. If he was willing to make a deal on the "Dreamers" who are also in this country illegally, why didn't he mention this when he was running? Why did he talk nothing but DEPORTATION, DEPORTATION, and MASS DEPORTATION when he was running, but now as he gets closer to stepping into the Whitehouse...all of a sudden he want to compromise? I told people about this shit.

frankster Depends on where God is? Is that a question? If you are Aware why ask.....I say again your cup runneth over.... I asked to get your answer/response, as to why would Spirits need "awakening". If you are confused it is of your own making. I'm not confused. However I would have liked CLARIFICATION on what you meant by "the knowledge". When I say "the knowledge" I know EXACTLY what I'm referring to. When you say it...I'm not so sure. I Am told it does And apparently you believe what you are TOLD. But do you KNOW for sure that it does? Perhaps you should verify the information you are told before passing it along....less it be erroneous information. It is not Awaken in me... Well shit, man..........((raises and drops arms)) If it's not Awakened or activated in you yet, what are we even TALKING about? How do you know what you have is real or even works???? Then I Am not the Messenger for You.....I have played my role and pointed the Way How can you point the way when you haven't even FOUND the way yet? You just said it's not Awakened in you. You got something sleeping inside of you that hasn't even woke up yet, but you want to sit here and "point the way" for somebody else to follow down the same mysterious path???? That's what happens when you go to the wrong person for advice....you end up feeling abused He didn't come to me for advice. We were just talking casually and me mentioned it.

ProfD Considering their accomplishments in military service, I don't believe these dudes were already crazy. They weren't crazy when they were active in the service, it was AFTER they got out is when the problems started. Sometime between what they saw and did in combat and got discharged - and before meeting these women, is when the mental problems began to brew. The ladies dealing with them surely saw this and decided to bail out while they could. Many crazy people tend to take their craziness out on those who are closest to them, which usually means family. There were reports that the cat who carried out that attack in New Orleans talked about killing his own family. You have to wonder how many times did both of these men talk crazy like that in front of their wives/girlfriends before those women got spooked and said ENOUGH. Got the fuck out of that situation. How will mass deportation benefit AfroAmericans? In several ways..... -Less competition for the jobs already here -Less people in the country draining the already limited resources -Less racists in the country to deal with We already know that these illegals aren't OUR (FBA) allies anyway. They certainly aren't here to help us socially or politically and definitely not economically. So how are they being here benefiting us? Most of us aren't even getting any pussy out of the deal. As I've talked about so many times, most of them aren't having sex with Black American men, so if we aren't getting money or land, or any other benefit from them...what good are they to us? Things aren't that stagnant or neutral. Their presence is having an effect one way or another. If they aren't benefiting us...then they are a drag on our progress.

ProfD One of the worse human traits to have is treating another person like a possession. There's no such thing as ownership. Yet, throughout humam history, ever since the caveman, folks have been cuffing and clubbing when sh8t goes sideways. As much as I don't care too much for the idea of the mentality of "owning" somebody, I can respect it for it's results. White men tend to be very possessive and feel like they own their women. Although I don't ascribe to that and most Black men don't....that mentality keeps White women in check and it also keep most of the people under the rule of White men in-line as well. That possessive dominating mentality. If more Black men thought like that: 1. I don't think there would be so many broken and dysfunctional families in the Black community not only in the United States but around the globe. As you pointed out before, the dysfunction in African families rivals that of AfroAmerican families so they can't point the finger at us. 2. Our women probably would respect us more. Yes...respect through fear....but respect us more none the less. This laid back...let her go and do as she pleases...mentality. I respect it as a person who believe in equality and freedom for both sexes, however I do recognize that it's not very helpful if our goal as men is to build and maintain power.

ProfD I'm not sure of what advanced means in this context but many AfroAmericans would argue being better off than the past. Since 2000..... -We should have had far more Black owned firms -Had More Black represenation in Congress -Established some Black Medical Centers -Most of the Black ghettoes should have been cleaned up and rejuvenated -Black male/female relations should have been better And, ideally...we could have used another Black (FBA preferably) President, lol. These aren't far fetched desires. In 25 years, they could very much have been achieved.

ProfD To your point, my problem with that line of belief or teaching is why those advanced Black beings haven't replaced racism white supremacy with a system of justice. Excellent question! Just like Religion, Science Fiction and Fantasy, Black folks create larger than life or highly intelligent figures as a form of deflection and/or escapism from reality. Like I said, it comes out of laziness. However the funny thing is... When it comes to a White man doing him wrong, a nigga will wait on "Jesus" to take care of him and fight his battle for him. But if YOU do him wrong, he doesn't wait on "Jesus"...he's at your doorstep in 15 minutes trying to get you to come outside...lol frankster They most likely are coming here to help themselves first Who said they needed help? Did they? And us second if at all and by "us" they mean all earthlings - humanity I'm not sure if "all" Earthlings actually need help. When did you ever try to free some ants from slavery or being enslaved When did you ever hear them ASK to be freed? Usually trade study and or conquest. Did they tell you that, or is that a speculation? You seem to be asking for Rescue not Help.....which is a form of Intervention - The Danger with Rescue is the Creation of Dependency. Along that line of thinking... Are you suggesting that EMT services be eliminated because accident victims and other victims of trauma may become dependent on the emergency help they receive? The best way to Help the weak is by teaching them how to Be and Become Strong. Ok. So are they doing THAT, then? When is the next training class for Earthlings hosted by Aliens on how to become strong, and how do I sign up? Religions tends to survive 1000's of years and various cultures and languages....hence the issues you cite Right. They tend to last longer than the people who believe in and practice them. The early Christians believed that Jesus was on his way back to Earth....2000 plus years and many many generations later...many of them are STILL looking up at the sky waiting on him to come back. It has been done several times already....some have been killed others captured and turn into guinea pigs/lap rats - and the whole thing swept under the rug as mass hysteria and imagination running wild. Are you saying this was done to the Beings of the UFO's, or the humans who reported them?

UBI is a deception. It's going to be a way to grab and maintain more control over the population. They'll guarantee you a certain amount of income, just on the strength. But then every little thing you do wrong or that doesn't conform...they'll use that as an excuse to penalize you and start chipping away at your funds. For example.......... You'll start off with $1,500 a month. -Don't get vaccinated, they take away $300 a month as penalty -Discriminate against a trans person, they take away $500 a month as penalty -Send a nasty email about some political figure and they find out, they take away $200 a month as penalty -Try to turn in an illegal immigrant, you get charged a penalty It may work if they absolutely guarantee the income with no deductions or penalties that would reduce it, but I don't think they would.

Man, it seems like just last year we were celebrating Obama getting into the Whitehouse. Still remember seeing Jesse Jackson crying. Now that's nearly 20 years ago. Shit........... How did we get HERE as a nation? Despite the problems we may have, seems like we....I'm talking about AfroAmericans....should be far more advanced than we are now.

Is this the same as the Winter Solstice?

ProfD The fact that they both had women problems is a flag. Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Did their women problems send them over the edge? Or were they already crazy and the women they were involved with sensed this and left their asses? This dude influencing policy in terms of food and drugs is going to be interesting. Very much so. If he indeed does have enough power to get the fluoride removed from the water and get some of these vaccines taken out of society...perhaps a Trump Administration may actually be a blessing in disguise. Just like IF...IF...IF...he actually carried out these mass deporation of all illegals like he promised. That would be a huge favor for most Black Americans.

ProfD However, if he had a military career, he should have been in a position to find another woman. No need to unalive yourself over one snatch box. You know most White men don't think like us. They don't lose a woman and then say "oh well" and then set out to find another. They often have the mentality of POSSESSING women as if they own them. If their woman tries to leave, they will try to do anything including violence to her or themselves to keep her or bring her back. It doesn't matter how many women are out there available to them, they usually focus on the one in their so-called "possession". I've noticed this for years, which is why I've came to some of the conclusions I've come to about the history and traditions of marriage, patriarchy, and how it relates to race and the racial differences in cultures. PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) is a very real thing especially for those who have seen and/or done horrible things in their military service Perhaps the Souls of those who were unjustly murdered or otherwise harmed by them often haunt them.

The Nation of Islam has another theory. They say that the pilots of these flying craft are NOT extraterrestrials but from right here on this planet. They teach that the pilots and other inhabitants of those ships are actually advanced Black Beings.

Honestly, I can't say. I'm not a woman and can't see my level of attractiveness from their eyes. To sit up here and rate myself is akin to masturbation, lol.

Troy So, I know a little somethin' like the broth pace of Christianity being Judea and not Turkey. If you think Christianity was born in Judea then you don't "know", you merely "believe"...lol. Again, that's not a fact. To understand this you'd really need to read a book like: You were quoting YOURSELF up there, not me...lol Again, I refer you to the above book or I've read through BOTH books years ago. They're not really teaching me things that I already know. Perhaps providing more detail and documentation for it, but nothing new. Even at a very simple level if we worked on our spirituality we would eliminate wars, crime, and allocate your wealth better... you can do both. As humans, we are spiritual by nature and all of us are in contact with our Spirits. What is there to "work out"? Wars and crime are human beings fighting over resources. Even if everyone was given equal resources, some people are more aggressive and industrious than others and would end up having more. And then others would be jealous and want to take what THEY have. ProfD it seems that if Black folks poured their mental and physical energy into building wealth instead of religion, they would truly be FREE. I would add, building wealth and political and military power as well. But I agree. Digesting a bunch of useless information and/or becoming absorbed in the unknown seems like a form of deflection and escapism from reality A form of mental laziness. Instead of taking time and doing the hard work of actually THINKING their way out of their problems, they'd rather take refuge into a world of make-believe and fantasy. As I was telling frankster in another thread.... Religion is just another tool used to DIVIDE Black people and keep our people going in circles. Spending countless hours pour over and arguing over so-called "scriptures" that they weren't even around to see who wrote them or under what circumstance. We need SOLUTIONS to our problems, not more religious dogma.

ProfD America shouldn't have people who are homeless long-term or lifetime. I'm not sure if I should agree or disagree. I believe we should have a strong SAFETY NET to catch people who don't want to hit bottom. But then again....some people WANT to be homeless. That's part of the so-called "freedom" they have. If a man doesn't want the responsibility of maintaining a house or paying rent and keeping up property and just wants to roam around on the street all of his life....as long as he's not bothering anyone he should be allowed to in my opinion. However if a person DOESN'T want to live on the street and can't afford a play to stay, there should be enough adequate decent shelters for them to live in. Back in the 1990s, asylums were closed down and institutionalized people were either transferred to prisons or thrown out on the streets to survive. It really started with Reagan back in California when he started shutting down the mental hospitals and kicking people out on the street. Then it spread across the nation. I remember CLEARLY back in 1991 when the Governor of Michigan shut down most of the PUBLIC mental hospitals and kicked most of the people out on the street. I remember watching it on the news. It was in the middle of February when he did it. Not only did crime shoot up sky high, so did suicides and incarceration. It used to be that mental hospitals were for those who were actually mentally ill. Now there filled up with rich white girls with drug problems. Troy All of that garbage about how those mental hospitals were dungeons and dens of mistreatment and abuse toward vulnerable mentally ill patients was just an EXCUSE to close down those facilities and save money. So what? So SOME people were being abused in SOME of the mental hospitals....does that mean the nation should have shut ALL of them down and kick the people out on the street? Kick them out on the street and let them be homeless, raped, robbed, and murdered....or commit suicide because they can't get the help the need. I guess THAT makes more sense than housing them in building facilities and giving them medication. Or toss them in prison....because we know they WON'T get abused in prison...right?

He allegedly DID leave a note behind after shooting himself and blowing up his truck. He called his actions a "stunt" and said it was a wake-up call for America...whatever that meant. They said he too suffered from PTSD from serving overseas and was dealing with a lot of pain and anguish from head injuries. My uncle warned me years ago when I was a teenager NOT to go into the military.

Troy Man, you get around....lol What made you want to go and hang out in New Orleans on Thanks Giving Day? How was the weather down there in late November? what do you think he could’ve possibly have gone through to explain or potentially justify what he did? He was a war veteran suffering from PTSD. No telling what he may have saw or had to do in battle that was eating away at his conscience. ProfD Acts of terrorism are not being committed by peope who are mentally ill. There is a level of planning required to pull it off. You can be mentally ill and intelligent at the same time. It depends on what part of your brain the illness affects. Both the New Orleans attacker and the dude who blew himself up in Las Vegas in front of Trump's casino reportedly suffered from PTSD from the tours they served overseas. They may have been depressed and possibly even suicidal, but outside of brain fog...that doesn't have a huge affect on one's intellectual abilities. Must be something in the air or water. There literally IS...lol. But don't worry... Robert Kennedy Jr. said he's going to take care of it. Take that fluoride and shit out of the water and stop it from running people crazy...lol

The "Freedom Caucus"....lol. Where do they come up with these names??? Weren't these people calling themselves the "Tea Party" not too long ago? 🤔 Or was it actually a LONG time ago but it just doesn't seem like it at my age? It seems like every few years these racist ass Conservatives re-group and come up with a new name for themselves and their fucked up ass ideologies.

I'm still trying to see how Lord Jamar ended up in the mix...lol. "Yo......my word is bond, regardless."

ProfD Based on what I've seen, some of those "red states" like Wyoming and Idaho and the Dakotas have some of the poorest shittiest government assistance programs available to those in need. They are so Conservative and traditionalist that they feel like people should rely on the local churches or their families for assistance if they "fall on hard times". Which means they don't even prepare for lifetime or long term homelessness of the type you see in major cities like New York or D.C. or L.A. There idea of "hard times" is some White man with a house and truck who loses his job for 8 months and has to rely on the local church for food or a couple times to keep his lights on. Not entire droves of homeless people and meth addicts living in tents. Like you said, the demographic is mostly White...though I might add a huge number of the population in most of those areas are illegal Latino immigrants who stay in shacks out in the rural areas and keep to themselves like slave to do the hard labor. They exist by the MILLIONS in those little rural corn-field counties. Both groups would rather have as little to do with the government as possible and tend to rely on family and local churches for their needs.

Troy Well we were in our 20s....and he should have KNOWN better than to come at me with some shit like that, lol. What was he expecting me to say in response? Let ME try???

frankster Laying dormant within is the Christ According to the Bible, Christ is on the righ-hand of the Father. Not "laying dormant" inside somebody. So from a scriptural stand point...this is simply not true. You are Unaware/Unconscious....in that sense you need Awakening - woke If I weren't aware/conscious...I wouldn't be on here correcting you right now, lol. It is there for all... The Knowledge is no longer Hidden....@Troy just posted links to most of what's in the public Domain - check them out? The Practice and The Discipline is Difficult I'm not sure what you mean by "the knowledge" but the knowledge I'm referring to are the ANSWERS to our problems! ...not more allegories or scriptures leading to more confusion and religious dogma. If a man has a disease, he needs THE KNOWLEDGE to cure it. If a woman is in poverty, she needs THE KNOWLEDGE to get herself out of it. Do the links you're referencing provide THAT type of knowledge? I give it the way I got it Well if it's not helping to solve any problems, you may as well give it.....AWAY. I do not have it that way. One could legitimately ask the question, do you have it AT ALL. And if you do...what PROBLEMS are you SOLVING with it? What is meant is that on this subject your mind is made up and nothing will change it Don't confuse: -NOTHING being able to change my mind with - nothing YOU'VE presented to me so far has changed my mind. There's a difference...lol. I once had a friend years ago who didn't speak to me for a week over something I said to him. He told me one day that his girlfriend wasn't able to have orgasms. I said to him, "Are you sure she can't have orgasms....or is it that YOU can't give her any???" Nigga looked at me, went back to his job...and didn't say shit to me for a whole week, lol.

Troy The Brother is indeed relating information from scholars. Ahhhh.... RELATING information from actual scholars is not the same as BEING one yourself. I just QUOTED/RELATED information from the Bible to Delano, but that doesn't make me a Biblical Scholar or theologian. If his agenda is to portray Christianity as an African religion because he doesn't like to hear so many people reject it as the "White man's religion"...that means he has an ulterior motive and is probably cherry picking the information he presents. There is too many parallels between Christianity text from Kemet. Christianity is made up of MANY MANY concepts and rituals. What part of Egypt did Jesus dying on the cross come from? What part of Egypt did the sign of the cross come from? What part of Egypt did fasting for Lent come from? What part of Egypt did being dead for 3 days and rising up come from? Cherry picking SOME aspects of Christianity and tying them in with Egyptian Mysticism as some sort of "proof" that they are the same is intellectually dishonest. Dude Christianity began in Jerusalem. This isn't even controversial. No sir, it did not. I just showed you where it began. Troy, you KNOW religion ain't your lane....lol.
