How do I attract other Black users to my threads?

Whites are not exempt from police brutality. They get victimized too, it's just that the media doesn't talk about that and focus on it. The media is biased.

@BillRM,
Like I said my mother is African American. I'm going to ask her if she ever played with any toy guns when she was little.

RACISM is not of God. Cops are supposed to serve, treat and protect everyone equally.

I don't know too much about BLM. I based my statement on what I read and heard about BLM prior to all the protesting they've done this year.


So you are reading such sites as storm front as no main news site except maybe Fox had picture BLM as anything but a civil right movement.

Females children of any color seldom play with weapons of any type during my childhood at least. They might take part in snow balls fights.

@BillRM,
No I never heard of Storm Front. I watched CNN and read various articles about BLM online. I went to the official BLM website and read about their agenda.

@BillRM,
My mom was a tomboy when she was little. It wouldn't surprise me if she ever played with any toy guns.

I'm glad my younger brother and I came up when we did. We were good kids and we never got in trouble with any cops. I've never had any real problem dealing with any police officers. My brother and I never had criminal records.

Really. I'm white and I know that's not correct. Do you think the majority white newspaper reading public has no interest in whites dying innocently at the hands of police especially if the rate of death is the same as for both races? That would be four to five times more in total numbers for whites. Who is keeping that number hidden from us???? Do you think if that were true some RWer wouldn't be screaming it from the rooftops?

If they can hide literally thousands of white victims, why can't they hide the hundreds of black victims???

Name ONE white person without a mental problem (because when it comes to the mentally ill - cops ARE truly colorblind) that this has happened to:




You really need to watch George Floyd videos again. There are several that are shot from several angles. HE NEVER RESISTED. He never yelled or argued. And the $10 bill WAS NOT counterfeited.

@bobsal u1553115,
I can provide several videos where the white person suspect is clearly intentionally making threats and threatening moves toward officers, and they not only don’t shoot them, but they go to great lengths and time and trouble to reason with them and capture them unharmed.

So you read BLM website and read the following and still do not know that they are a civil right outfit???

https://blacklivesmatter.com/what-we-believe/

Four years ago, what is now known as the Black Lives Matter Global Network began to organize. It started out as a chapter-based, member-led organization whose mission was to build local power and to intervene when violence was inflicted on Black communities by the state and vigilantes.

In the years since, we’ve committed to struggling together and to imagining and creating a world free of anti-Blackness, where every Black person has the social, economic, and political power to thrive.

Black Lives Matter began as a call to action in response to state-sanctioned violence and anti-Black racism. Our intention from the very beginning was to connect Black people from all over the world who have a shared desire for justice to act together in their communities. The impetus for that commitment was, and still is, the rampant and deliberate violence inflicted on us by the state.

@snood,
Heck, snood, they've let white drunks walk away with weapons.

That little jerk in Kenosha who shot three killing two people could not even get arrested afterwards carrying an AR-15. That seven year old Clevelander got less than eight seconds before the white cop shot him for holding an obviously toy gun and that kid broke no laws whatsoever. The cop of course was never charged.

Would a black man with an AR-15 who had broken no laws get a pass from cops during a civil disturbance?

I think most definitely not.

Read the articles at the above links. As I said whites are not exempt from cop brutality. You are incorrect.

It's been said the BLM protests may be the biggest civil rights movement in U.S. history.

I get the feeling that your African Americanism is something you can put on and take off like a coat. You’re pale enough to be mistaken for being white so you don’t suffer the same brutality and prejudice that most African Americans face.

You give the impression that you think your lighter complexion somehow makes you more moral, more upright, less criminal. Yet you’re happy to reclaim the mantle of being African American when it suits you.

For all your evangelising you have very little in the way of sympathy for others. Orwell used the analogy of a boot stamping into a human face, most people sympathise with the face, but you seem to take the boot’s side.

@JGoldman10,
Why the hell did you in two postings did a mass dumps of links of around 15 or so.

Links should be used to show where you gotten your information or to back up your position but such mass dumps of links is not useful at all.

@JGoldman10,
You are confused. The issue isn't "no whites are abused". The issue is police brutality and why is it the black community suffers it wildly out of proportion to the white community.

Certainly you don't mean to tell me black Americans as a group engage in more criminality any other ethnic/racial group. That criminality is a racial component.
