  1. ProfD They're already started doing both 1 and 2. Infact, they started doing both in early 2021. The racists who started the virus in the first place have been dropping little hints here and there all through out the pandemic that people would have to "learn to live with it" which is basically treating it like the common cold or flu. Just learn to live with it and accept it....including the death and disability. They're just getting bolder and bolder with it now. Remember early on in the Pandemic when they kept pointing to Sweden and how Sweden and Norway and other northern European nations were pretty much keeping their society open and ignoring the deaths and disabilities from the virus.....until things got so bad could no longer just "ignore" it. Even back then they wanted America to just "get used" to the death and destruction caused by Covid. Now the mainstreams is pushing this approach out in the open.
  2. You'll get no arguments from me...... I don't even know why Nels brought it up in the first place. His MOUTH is already lubricated for what he wants to do.....no need for additional lubricants, lol "Ahhhhh...... I can take it like a man!"
  3. As long as racist Caucasians are running this nation and this world...don't expect for any ONE mayor to change this and improve the situation. They (the racist Caucasians) MADE the conditions by which there is so much crime, violence, and poverty not just in New York but around the planet. They did this on purpose to cause chaos and confusion and desparation. More crime means more police and more excuses to lock up people and used them for cheap labor as well as an excuse to jack up the prices in certain neighborhoods and make you PAY for your own safety.
  4. I don't trust either party (Republican or Democrat) or either channel (Fox News or CNN). I'm not going to trade in one slave master for another. Or run away from the Democratic plantation just to take refuge on the Republican plantation. BOTH of them are headed by the same racist devils.
  5. Nels (nails???) I should start calling you NAILS because you're grasping and clawing for attention from me....lol Pioneer1, you make absolutely NO sense. Black people who commit crimes ARE criminals, just like everyone else who does. Don't waste your room temperature-level IQ trying to explain away what you don't know. And yes, black people tend to spend a lot of their lives trying to un-black themselves. It is what it is. For someone you claim doesn't make any sense, you sure do understand enough of what I say to challenge and oppose it. Again, my question is WHO TAUGHT them to hate themselves? If Black people hate themselves...as you say...then WHO taught them to????
  6. Then I take it that "talking to yourself" is atleast one symptom of schizophrenia that you don't display....yet, lol
  7. But....I thought you said you wanted to BUY some from me? I'm not all up in your business but.... You told me that you learned your lesson the last time that condom got stuck inside you, lol.
  8. Mzuri I'm still trying to get myself together after seeing at that teddy bear in your post. I'm sure I'll come up with an adequate response after the emotional reaction to that image calms down a bit..LOL Nels Pioneer1, when you finish with that crack pipe, let us know. Why? Are you feenin' for a hit? Sorry, I don't do drugs. I suggest you find someone else to supply your "gots-ta-habits"...lol
  9. People usually ditch their crutches when they are HEALED or atleast HEALING. No one discards their crutches WHILE their mobility is still severely impaired.
  10. Just like when you vote for a known Russian agent ....you get a guy who actually instigates an insurrection and the dismantling of his own country.
  11. As long as you stay out of them. Somebody said that you're the INGREDIENT that turns sweet dreams into bitter nightmares...lol
  12. Ok....I'm suggesting that YOU do it, lol. Let's start there and see how it goes.
  13. You said the police will stop killing Black people WHEN Black people stop committing crimes. That statement raises a number of questions: 1. Does that mean ALL crimes are worthy of death? 2. What "crimes" were George Floyd and the young man in Minnesota who was killed by a cop who CLAIMED she thought she was using a taser...what crimes where THEY convicted of for their deaths? 3. And as far as Black people hating themselves, WHO TAUGHT them to hate themselves?
  14. This may not be a very popular position to take but...I support my brother. When White women cry victim and claim that they were victims of sexual assault, they are usually believed by society until OVERWHELMING evidence is produced that erases all doubt and proves them to be liars. Now all of a sudden that standard is lowers when a Half-Black man claims to be a victim of a racist and homophobic attack. Now all of a sudden the police are suspicous of his claims, checking all of the video tapes, doing everything EXCEPT treating him as a victim of a crime. Did he make it all up? Perhaps But the interesting thing is even to this very moment despite over 90% of the public agreeing that he lied and made the whole thing up....HE still maintains that he was indeed a victim and that he didn't make it up. I find that VERY interesting that he stands so firmly on his accusations despite all of this "evidence" the police allegedly produced that it didn't happen. Another and more broader issue with this case is, if we reject Jussie and his claim.....it opens the door to reject OTHER claims of racial attacks. A racial attack claim used to be as sacred and indisputable as a sexual assault claim. You were almost villified for just QUESTIONING whether or not it actually happened. The Jussie Smollett case has changed that to where now if a Black man claims to be a victim of a racist attack...it's met with skepticism and sometimes open disbelief. How long will it be before people are lynched in the streets again and the claim will be "it didn't happen....they're making it all up"????
  15. Troy The problem starts with assuming that White officers aren't racists UNTIL they prove themselves to be. It should be the other way around. A White cop should be presumed racist UNTIL they have proven themselves to be otherwise....over a PROLONGED period of time. Infact, we should take this position about White people in general. You should presume that they are racist until they have proven themselves....atleast in action....not to be.
  16. ProfD Back briefly.....lol I have more time off to spend on the internet.
  17. Infact.... Through out history the PRIESTLY class and NOBILITY class have worked side by side to keep the population under control. This goes back beyond Feudalistic Europe, pass the Roman Empire, all the way back to the days of Babylon where the kings were sanctioned and blessed by the local priests.
  18. Mark my words.... A time is gonna come.....soon...when more White people will be celebrating Kwanzaa than AfroAmericans. A time is gonna come.....very soon...when you're gonna be able to walk down the street and the average young White person you stop and ask will know more about Kwanzaa and what each day means than the average AfroAmerican youth (many of whom probably won't have even HEARD of it).
  19. It reminds me of a skit from the Christ Rock show where two Black men are riding in a car and when they're pulled over the DRIVER is acting calm and respectful while his passenger as cussing and acting thugged out and crazy. And end up getting BOTH of them cuffed and their asses kicked on the sidewalk.
  20. Population Control World leaders have been saying for DECADES that there are too many people on the planet and admitted they are interested in reducing the population.
  21. ProfD The good news is that I do not live in a tyrannical police state. The bad news is that n8gglets are killing folks with no regard for human life and committing other crimes. Unfortunately, in this country that's often the trade off. Either you're over policed to the point of oppression. Or under policed and the place is a jungle. Black folks need to demand both that n8gglets and police see fellow human beings and not a paper target at the gun range. Demand, backed up with FORCE to force them to respect the lives and property of others. Like I've said numerous times in the other thread, the solution to this is POLICING OURSELVES. When we police ourselves....we control the laws and crime and if things to wrong there is no one else to blame but ourselves. Real life isn't a video game. Folks don't jump back up when they get shot, stabbed, choked out or beat up. Reminds me of a quote from DMX: "This ain't a flick... You won't come back on... You ain't that strong." Kenneth We must cooperate with police and stop calling it " snitching. " We need to realize that people who kill and rob along with drug kingpins need to be locked up. I understand what you mean and I would agree in an IDEAL situation where the law enforcement were actually doing their jobs and protecting citizens. However that's NOT the case in many urban areas of the United States. First of all, in many places the police are SUPPORTING the drug dealers and protecting them. They're on the pay roll. So you call yourself running to the police to tell on the drug traffickers down the street...and the police not only know about it but are acting as their own personal security guards to protect them from rival dealers. Second, in many if not most places in the United States today....you can't RELY on cops to protect you. If you "snitch" on the man down the street who shot that kid or who traffics cocaine out of his house there are several things to consider: 1. Will the cops even come and arrest him? Or will they decide there isn't enough evidence on him to take him in? Because if they don't....and he finds out YOU are the one who called on him....it's over. 2. Even if he's taken into custody, how soon will he get out on bail? The sooner he get's out....the sooner YOU will be in danger. 3. Have the police guaranteed YOU 24 hour protection from him or his friends who will want to target you for being a "snitch"? If not? If the police aren't even willing to do that much...what good is it? They tell you not to snitch, but they aren't even protecting those who AREN'T labled snitches...let alone those with targets on their backs. This is just another reason we need to police ourselves.
  22. ProfD Maybe I'm jealous because when I was growing up, we got popped in the mouth for uttering stupid stuff. Of just talking period when you're in the presence of older grown folks...lol. If you were lucky...one of them might look over at you and roll their eyes a little bit to let you know "shut up boy". But if you didn't get that hint: BOP!!! Them back-handed licks ain't no joke...lol But as I got older I now realize why the old folks were that way with children. A lot of fights and even some killings have result from children listening to what they shouldn't have been listening to and running their mouths about things they shouldn't.
  23. ProfD Yeah, may...they KEEP crime going because so many people are making money off of it. Crime employs so many people: Cops Lawyers Baliffs Judges Corrections Officers Social Workers Psychologists And many others who make money OFF of crime like those who supply jails and prisons with food, soaps, razors, ect... Chev This is my position. Why is this justified? I don't believe that people should be imprisoned without parole, but to let out a violent criminal into Black communities is a problem. I'm big on analyzing things and getting into the details to solve problems. Perhaps extremely violent people shouldn't be released into the public, but if they pose too much of a threat to be released then they should be institutionalized into some sort of mental hospital and medicated to control themselves. I wonder though, what can be done. Police ourselves.....under OUR OWN laws. That's a start.
  24. Congradulations to Barbados for this STEP TOWARDS independence. However I'd have to check out their currency, their affilation with the IMF, who their trading with, and what type of products they're growing to see if their really independent or not.
