Black people are not the ones that need to be convinced. The general white public is the problem. The ones who are not consciously racist, but believe the official narrative because it's given by someone "honorable" with a badge and a gun. It's really easy to say fuck white people, but those are the majority of the judges, prosecutors, and most importantly, jury members. The prosecutors who do know what's going on, and do not indict or put on a strong case, can get pressure from these people if they wake up. Black people are generally ignored, not simply because there is no economic power, but because there is no political involvement as well. As I've said elsewhere, the narrative is changing. Even the editorial board of the NYT is calling out Guiliani on his BS. You have plenty of white folks getting arrested at thse protests and they in turn will also call for police accountability.
I agree that economic empowerment is an important issue to work on, but this isn't an either/or situation, it's both/and.
Dude there are some things I'm gonna break down in that agenda when I get home to my computer.
You should make a new thread for it so that it doesn't get lost in this thread and so that other people can contribute. And remember.. that is one of many platforms.
Something else I'm gonna come back to and I agree with alot of your points sister. I'll have to respond when I get infront of my computer but what kind of pressure can we put on those individuals?
Marilyn Mosby tried to do the right.thing and look what they are trying to do to her
At the end of the day, it don't matter if you continue to treat each other like animals. It's a simple concept, that many people want to deny. If you don't respect yourself, I will never respect you. Why should I, you don't respect yourself, your own community. You can avoid this all you want. You can march and protest vs the police, but not for each other. Call it what you want, because it appears BLM are situational attention whores. These clowns out here acting like it's the holocaust.
You know what annoys the hell out of me,I've been seeing athletes,the president,people in the media and etc say the violence has to stop....I'm like really,they make it seem like it's both ways when it's the police that's killing us.
We've been getting kill,for no reason,since slavery and whenever black people says fuck it and retaliates people try to make it sound like it's both party's that's causing the violence...I'm like...wtf...
That's like a bully punching and kicking someone for 400 years and when that person had enough and beat the shit out of the bully and then the bully runs to the principal and says he's getting bullied...It makes no fucking sense at all..

A suspect remains at large in an alleged plot to kill officers at protests after the fatal police shooting of Alton Sterling at a Louisiana store, authorities said Tuesday.
Col. Mike Edmonson, superintendent of the Louisiana State Police, said at a news conference that the plot, had it been carried out, would have caused "substantial harm to police in the Baton Rouge area."
Baton Rouge Police Chief Carl Dabadie Jr. said the plot was uncovered after a robbery Saturday shortly after midnight at a pawn shop where eight handguns and a BB rifle were stolen. Two of the handguns have yet to be recovered, he said.
Four men were involved in the police plot, Dabadie said. Three of them — Antonio Thomas, 17, Malik Bridgewater, 20, and Trashone Coats, 23 — have been arrested on various firearms and theft-related charges, but the fourth, whose identity isn't known, remains at large, along with the two missing handguns, police said.
A 13-year-old boy, who wasn't identified because he is a juvenile, was also taken into custody in connection with the pawn shop burglary, police said later in a statement.
Police said in the statement that Thomas was arrested on the roof of the pawn shop with a handgun and a BB rifle and "stated that he and three other suspects stole the firearms and were going to get bullets to shoot police."
Dabadie also said Thomas disclosed "real, credible evidence" that law enforcement officers were to have been targeted.
Authorities said they couldn't reveal more details because the investigation is active and undercover officers remain the field, but Edmonson said that as long as the fourth suspect remains free, all local law enforcement officers are under a "credible threat."
Likewise, all of the other officials at the news conference — including the head of the local office of the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives — variously described the threat as "real," "substantial" and "credible."
In a reference to the fatal shootings of five police officers after a protest last week, East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff Sid J. Gatreaux said: "Look at what happened in Dallas — a peaceful protest. The threat speaks for itself. We can't take anything for granted anymore."
Authorities in Baton Rouge arrested almost 150 people in weekend protests over the shooting of Sterling, 37, on July 5.
Two police officers, both of them white, are on administrative leave pending an investigation. The U.S. Justice Department has opened a separate investigation of possible civil rights violations.
The shooting, which was recorded on cellphone video, set off days of protests in Baton Rouge, where demonstrators have been met by hundreds of heavily armed and shielded police and sheriff's deputies.
Police have told NBC News that most of those arrested were from out of town, but local leaders maintain that the show of force is a good representation of severely strained relations between law enforcement and African-American residents.
The president of the local chapter of the NAACP has called on Dabadie to resign as police chief.
The principal is the bully. The bully is the principal. That's essentially your issue. The person you're complaining about is the person who you're complaining to.
You're fucked!
Baton Rouge Police arrest 3 for stealing guns in “credible threat” to harm cops
BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Police say they have arrested three suspects and are seeking a possible fourth accused of stealing several handguns as part of an alleged plot to harm police officers in the Baton Rouge area.
Baton Rouge police Chief Carl Dabadie said in a press conference Tuesday that authorities discovered the plot while responding to a burglary at a pawn shop.
They arrested one suspect on the scene and then tracked down two others. Authorities called on the fourth suspect to turn himself in.
State Police Col. Mike Edmonson called it a “substantial credible threat” to police.
The arrests come after the deadly police shooting of a black man by two white police officers in the city and the killing of five police officers in Dallas last week.

Bruhs here posted the truth but CAC ain't havin it though
I didn't know these Call In Police Murders (CIPM) were happening in the South. A CIPM is when somebody exaggerates a crime so that the police will respond with deadly force by calling 911. This a Northern thing, I guess transplants are bringing this down South....
Man, he went Andy Dufresne on Alton Sterling. You've been arrested 19 times in 20 years maybe you want to try a new profession
I can't say he's wrong in that. But, the cops didn't even know his name when they pulled up. All they had was man in a red shirt selling CDs with a gun comma so you can't talk about the criminal history when they didn't ID the person to have a criminal history
man. I didn't even notice it. I posted it here when it first went down. That's the name they had.
All that neck rolling by his Son.
Anyways....
Obviously someone prepared a speech for him.
White folks will always have Black puppets on standby.
They wanna make sure THEIR businesses and shit dont get burned down.
This guy tried to flip this bullshit on the police...
You think those dirty cops just can't grab a pistol out of the evidence locker and put his prints on it.
They would've showed it already and the video has and will contradict anything the police say.. That cat is out of the bag,, they(Baton Rouge PD) still have not confirmed if Sterling had a gun.. Meaning they have no gun

It's funny that the media never brought up this incident that happened when a group of crazy ass anti-government whiteboys ambushed and murdered two white St. John Parish cops in 2012.
