Brah....lets be real if someone is trying to attack you you're not thinking about shooting someone in the leg. Thats for the movies.

True. But in most cases involving Black folks that got killed by the police....that didnt apply.

Of course when youre trying to protect your life...it is what it is. But the fact that some folks have more patience with some than they do with others cant be ignored....


If youre that paranoid..then go get a desk job or be a cop on a bike or something.

Had to get rid of alot of people off my facebook page.......most of them are former classmates :smh::smh::smh:

There are 2 types. The Kumbaya people, and the Corporate cats.

No one wants to hear my rants concerning the fact that white people will kill us all if they could.

My " Friends & Family " plan is dwindling.

We re fooling ourselves if we think at the end of the day this officer will get convicted....

New Yorkers Hold Vigil in Solidarity with Ferguson
Hundreds participated in vigils throughout New York City on Thursday in remembrance of Michael Brown.

HARLEM, NY — New Yorkers gathered in neighborhoods throughout the boroughs Thursday in remembrance of an unarmed Missouri teenager who was shot dead by police.

A crowd of people with a range of backgrounds and ethnicities assembled at Morningside Park in Harlem on Thursday evening to remember 18-year-old Michael Brown, who was fatally wounded during a confrontation with police in Ferguson, Missouri, last weekend.

The gathering, dubbed “National Moment of Silence For Victims of Police Brutality,” honored the memory of Brown and other people killed in confrontations with civil authorities.

Other mass demonstrations in support of the cause took place simultaneously at Union Square in Lower Manhattan, Bed-Stuy in Brooklyn and Jamaica in Queens, DNAinfo reported.

Bronx social worker Feminista Jones, 35, led the Harlem vigil and organized the New York City events that spread to other cities throughout the U.S.

“I put out a call on Sunday to everybody that could listen to me that was tired like I was and said, ‘Do you want to organize something in your city just to show your city and your community that you care,’ and people immediately stood up and said, ‘I do.’” Jones said.

NYPD estimated the crowd at Morningside Park swelled to 300 at the peak of the demonstration.

Harlem mother Cordelia Donovan brought her teenaged daughter to the Harlem event and expressed discontent with St. Louis County police, who sported riot gear during demonstrations in Ferguson earlier in the week.

“No military action should be taken in my homeland — we are not under attack from a foreign nation so we should not have military gear in our cities,” Donovan said Thursday.

Donovan went on to express a desire for white friends to willfully engage with her in a dialogue on the societal implications of the shooting death of Michael Brown.

“We are all Americans,” she said. “Black people fight for this country in foreign nations just like everyone else, and so I’d like to see more than just a handful get upset at the injustices.”

Check out some of the vigils around the country captured on social media using the hashtag #NMOS14.

We are human beings. We deserve to be buried by out children not the other way around. No matter how u felt about black people look at this Mother and look at this father and tell me as a human being how u cannot feel empathy for them. How can u not feel sympathy for their pain and loos. These are not "THOTS, niggas/******s, hoes, Ballers, Divas. These two people are parents. They are humans that produced a child and loved that child and that child was slaughtered like Game and left face down as public spectacle while his blood drained down the street. Look at the pain of this mother, look into her eyes. Look at the Man behind her. Look at that father made helpless and hurt that he cud not defend his seed. Don't debate. Don't insert your agenda. Save me the bullshit Black On Black Crime speech and look at these to Noble creatures called humans and look at what govt sanctioned murder has done. It has robbed them of their humanity and replaced it with pain and shame, suffering and hurt. I don't care if others rioted or why. I don't care that ball players and Rappers are what they shud be. I care that we as humans care as much about one another more. I care we see past Class, race and culture and honor the humanity that unites our species. Stop talking and LOOK at these PEOPLE. LOOK at these HUMANS and stand with them against a system allows a Human PIG to slaughter their child. Forgive any typos love and respect u all.
