  1. @Pioneer1 do this but not directly. I was talking to a young woman yesterday and she did not like the fact that parents had to approve gender reassignment surgery for their children. I said I would not approve my son cutting off his penis at 13; he could make that decision once he was of legal age. She said she would approve the surgery at 13. I said "that is the 'woman' in you talking." But it was also generational differences as well. I do agree men and women are different to the extent that they feel differently about different things in general. These difference are of course not universal or strictly function of gender.
  2. People are on a spectrum when it comes to emotional response, physicality, sexual orientation, and gender. People's reactions and beliefs are culturally defined. There is probably an environmental factor to all of this as well. As a result, you can't just put all women and all men into a simple well-defined buckets. I know you like black or white answers @Pioneer1, but the real world is much more complex and nuanced. There is no one way that all women think.
  3. I heard about White Robes and Broken Badges: Infiltrating the KKK and Exposing the Evil Among Us on the radio this morning where the author Joe Moore was being interviewed. Joe infiltrated the KKK and thwarted an assignation attempt on then, Democratic presidential candidate, Barack Obama. The most striking think to me was Joe describing the KKK members who are part of the police force and using their positions to help the KKK!
  4. If enough Black people share the media media including black media will not be able to ignore it so anyone reading this please share it.
  5. An Open Letter from CEMOTAP THE COMMITTEE TO ELIMINATE MEDIA OFFENSIVE TO AFRICAN PEOPLE 135-05 ROCKAWAY BOULEVARD SOUTH OZONE PARK QUEENS NEW YORK 10022 Bashlefi@gmail.com 347-907-0629 Commissioner Adam Silver National Basketball Association 645 Fifth Avenue New York, NY, 10022 Greetings Mr. Silver, Most people who follow Zionist Affairs are familiar with the name Jonathan Greenblatt. He is the head of the Anti-Defamation League of B’nai B’rith and was prominent in the attack on Kyrie Ervin for tweeting a link to a movie based on a book that Greenblatt felt was antisemitic. When Kyrie Ervin initially refused to apologize for tweeting that link, you and Nets Owner Joseph Tsai denounced him. Joseph Tsai an Asian, owner of the NETS with a first name from the Torah voluntarily offered to donate $500,000 dollars of the New York Nets money to the Anti-Defamation League of B’nai Brith. This is 10 times the amount, you sir, fined a player by the name of Meyers Leonard for using the unholy grail of slurs among Jews, the word, “Kike.” Meyers said this word during a video game. Is the ADL monitoring the NBA players video games as well as tweets? No matter, lets suspend disbelief for a moment and say that in a world all too full of such offenses with people using the words Nigger and Bitch in the music, the literature and the American culture in general, as if those were the birth names of Black men and women, the word Kike is worth $50,000. THEN HOW DOES KYRIES TWEET MERIT $500,000 Dollars of the Fan’s Money. After you have processed that, perhaps, you are ready to look more carefully at this fine/donation the owner of the Nets imposed on the team of $500,000 for Kyries “TWEET.” His TWEET! In the same world where Justin Volpe now is free, was fined $525 and charged $267,000 in restitution for his role in the barbaric assault of Abner Louima. The question remains WHY half a million dollars for tweeting a link. At first glance you might say it does not make sense but when you believe in the maxim that everything makes sense and that if it seems not to make sense, you just don’t have enough information, then you will search for the sense that it makes. CONFLICT OR CONGRUENCE OF INTERESTS Let’s dig a little. Joseph Tsai and Jonathan Greenblatt are co-founders of the Asian American Foundation It was formed in 2021 with the help of the Anti-Defamation League. Greenblatt was just replaced on the board of the Asian American Foundation a few weeks ago by Geraldine Acuña-Sunshine. She is Asian but she is a member of Congregation Kehillath Israel of Brookline, a conservative synagogue just west of Boston. She is also a board member of the ADL. So, Joseph Tsai deciding to assess the cost of Black Tweeting at $500,000 sent the money for all intents and purposes to his fellow co-founder, (it’s too early to say co-conspirator). What was, or should have been, and what should not have been, your role in this, Sir? Why didn’t you say whoa, hold stop don’t for a tweet pay 10 times the rate that we have in the past charged for the worst anti-Jewish slur possible. WHAT ABOUTISM? Here is a better question why haven’t you or Joseph Lacob the owner of the Golden State Warriors assessed the value of a fine for another NBA player, Mr. Stephen Curry for producing, not tweeting, producing sir, the vile, violent, racist, disrespectful cartoon, Netflix’s Good Times Reboot. If a tweet of a link to a movie is worth $500,000. What’s the fine for NBA Player producing a movie which calls Black People NIGGERS, calls Black women, BITCHES, ridicules a Black girl’s first Menses with a dream sequence of her flicking menstrual blood at her class mates and features a Black Man Styled as an Ape having Sex with a Black Woman. Why haven’t you assessed the penalty for that. Unless you say you were unaware of these insults, the fact may be that you have assessed what should be the appropriate penalty. Maybe with your silence you are saying that although the hint of an insult to a Jew is worth $500,000 dollars, the gravest insult imaginable to every Black person in America is worth zero. Maybe you are saying that your only concern is insults to those of your own religion and Ethnicity. With respect to the apparent conflict of interest and transfer of wealth between associates, Mr. Tsai and Greenblatt, maybe that’s also not a concern of the Commissioners Office. Maybe the Justice Department will agree with you. After all its just money collected from the fans. If you choose to respond we can be reached at the address or the email address in the heading of this letter. Sincerely, James C. McIntosh, M.D. and Betty J. Dopson Co-Chairs CEMOTAP August 8, 2024
  6. @Mel Hopkins there probably is not a lot of content on the filmmaker.
  7. Because the government dies not let people run around with guns the way they do here. Maybe the algorithm on the platform you use has decided not to feed you this content. Or the people who would comment on this are doing this on other platforms. Viral disinformation spread in social media is what helped fuel these riots. i was not aware of these riots until just now.
  8. I’m not giving up @KENNETH I’m just saying legislation isas out best solution, that was what the civil rights movement was about. i often cite the Montgomery Bus Boycott as a prime example of identifying a goal and getting everyone organized to achieve that goal. That was a local effort that resulted in national legislation that impacted far more people.
  9. What about the vast majority of the Black people who are not in the Nation do you expect all of us to join the Nation of Islam? But here too The nation was infiltrated by agent provocateurs and government spies. It’s not easy to tell if you’re serious or not with the emojis. But obviously in the last hundred years, there’s been a great deal of progress watch it stemming from laws ending segregation, and like. Even in this most egregious murder that police officer will go to jail I would not describe that as impunity. our biggest risk of murder is not from a rabid white racist, but from another black person. A white person is for more likely to murder another white person than a black person.
  10. A Black agenda has been created before. You just can’t get enough Black people to support it. In my years of life individuals always hurt our ability to organize as they eventually or their own self interest ahead of the group.
  11. I think Trump will win because there isn't a popular vote and we have this winner take all electoral college. Trump would lose a popular vote by millions. The reality is that the Presidental election will be determined by a handful states. It is really important for Black people in Georgia, North Carolina, and Michigan to vote. In states like California and New York it does not matter so much... I know there are some of you that would bristle at me saying one more Black person voting democrat in California or New York ain't gonna make a difference in the outcome of the election -- it is just math.
  12. The organization required would be monumental. Such an organization would not be able to go unnoticed. Once exposed sell-out, turncoats, and snitches with the promise of a quick payday would be the undoing. Michelle Obama has a much better chance at becoming the POTUS that a group of organized Black vigilantes. I think the best chance we have given our numbers would be to work within the system -- even as f'ed up as it is.
  13. Me neither. it is pure wasted mental energy. I can see people starting this meme in order to depress black male votes for Kamala. I don’t think it was done to destabilize, black male female relationships. That job is already been completed.
  14. It is simpler than — it is just plain evil. The cop that shot that young lady was a devil. you expect them to take on the entire police department? What would you do? Supposed those brothers were armed and started taking out 33 white peoples for every innocent black one killed by a cop. how do you think that would go over?
  15. How do you know this? You don’t think they are knocking boots? Do you not think she is in love with her man?
  16. It is a matter of opinion, so I'm not saying you are right or wrong. Why adapt a pedophile into a Black character? What purposes does that serve? Just leave that character as originally written.
  17. We don't need any guns. We have so them because of slick marketing, fearmongering, the NRA, gun lobbyists and so on. We are a gun culture because it makes gun manufacturers very wealthy. As a result, we have a much more violence.
  18. You could adapt anything. The real question is why adapt Lolita with black characters?
  19. Have you looked at the data or, like me ,are you just saying stuff Looking at the data at a state level is misleading. Municipalities within an estate can vary a great deal Syracuse, New York is nothing like New York City and the south side of Chicago is nothing like Maywood. The vast majority of people in open carry states don’t walk around with their guns and plain display. So that would seem to have little impact on the stats. Criminals have already backed this into their methodology. I do know of a story : my buddy’s sister is a New York City police officer or was at the time. some guy came into the beauty salon to rob it while she was getting her hair did. she pulled out her service revolver and shot him. That story made national news. Because stories like this are exceedingly rare.
  20. Sorry @ProfD I meant Non-open carry. At any rate, you are more likely to have your open-carried firearm snatched from you that you are to thwart a crime... I checked a few sources, and the majority of American don't have a gun the home. In the NE where I'm from ownership rates are less than 20%. In NJ is it less than 10%. The places where mass shooting occur are where gun ownership is higher. I guess you also believe every government should have nukes.
  21. There are many open carry states with much lower murder rates than Texas.
  22. Ok ’d failed to code that option.
  23. What is the option?
  24. Roosevelt was elected for 4 terms they changed the law after him. Trump will probably. be a wartime president and justify changing the law.
