Yeah bruh! That bitch was wrong! But dude should just put his hands behind his back and go to jail. Once you resist, that's when you give them the excuse. I got pulled over for a DUI, I was fucked up. I was in an all white neighborhood and the cop who pulled me over was white. I sober up quick enough to know that I needed to do what I got to do to see another day. So it was yes sir and no sir the whole time I was talking to him. He took me to their little jail where it was nothing but white cops, I was actually relieved when he said he's taking me to the jail in the city I'm from, which was about 15 minutes away. I spent the night in jail and my brother bailed me out the next day. Again she was wrong but we have to be smarter, just go to jail and get bailed out the next day, at least you are alive.And we can look forward to you being right up front huh? I'm just amazed how courageous so many of us are sitting behind a keyboard.
I can tell you didn't read and fully understand my statements. So stop with the shock jock replies. Im not interested in continuing to respond to people that have exhibited low comprehension skills.....And we can look forward to you being right up front huh? I'm just amazed how courageous so many of us are sitting behind a keyboard.
the same thing they do while beating the shit out you and screaming "stop resisting".

Smart dummy you are. Its all good, I run into them all the time. And I drive past them in my s63 every day. I know you dont know what that is. Keep posting though you will get there........That's the problem I did read and fully understand statements which is why you received the reply you did. If you didn't understand my reply I'll restate it in simpler terms "it is easy to be full of bravado sitting behind a keyboard." Your probably like that one guy in the gang who always had to go to work when there was a possibility of hands being thrown.
I think the fundamental problem is that many of you guys don't have a rudimentary understanding of how the things you're arguing about actually work.
One of the main revenue sources of the local government was revenue from public transportation. Go look it up. They immediately lost 80% of their revenue base. This is the actual government....not local businesses. We're not even counting the revenue loss to local businesses.
You didn't actually think that the PUBLIC transport system was privately owned right?
This isn't something you can argue about. You just don't know it. Go look it up. It's an absolutely matter of the historical record that the city lost 80% of their revenue base from local transportation and it was bankrupting them.
The Montgomery Bus Boycott
In commemoration of the anniversary of the Montgomery Bus Boycott, today’s post comes from Sarah Basilion, an intern in the National Archives History Office. Sixty years ago, Rosa Parks, a 42-year-…prologue.blogs.archives.gov
"Instead of buses, African Americans took taxis driven by black drivers who had lowered their fares in support of the boycott, walked, cycled, drove private cars, and even rode mules or drove in horse-drawn carriages to get around. African-American citizens made up a full three-quarters of regular bus riders, causing the boycott to have a strong economic impact on the public transportation system and on the city of Montgomery as a whole. "
It was literally the first mass protest on behalf and specifically for civil rights in the United States.
"
The city of Montgomery tried multiple tactics to subvert the efforts of boycotters. They instituted regulations for cab fares that prevented black cab drivers from offering lower fares to support boycotters. The city also pressured car insurance companies to revoke or refuse insurance to black car owners so they could not use their private vehicles for transportation in lieu of taking the bus.
Police report from Rosa Parks’s arrest, December 1, 1955. (National Archives Identifier 596074)
Montgomery’s efforts were futile as the local black community, with the support of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., churches—and citizens around the nation—were determined to continue with the boycott until their demand for racially integrated buses was met.
The boycott lasted from December 1, 1955, when Rosa Parks was arrested, to December 20, 1956, when Browder v. Gayle, a Federal ruling declaring racially segregated seating on buses to be unconstitutional, took effect.
Although it took more than a year, Rosa Parks’s refusal to give up her seat on a public bus sparked incredible change that would forever impact civil rights in the United States."
Whites seeing black people getting hosed down didn't change the fucking laws and you're silly to think that. The economic pressure of the boycott forced the hand of the local gov't and the threat of it going nationwide forced the federal gov't to step in. That's a historical fact that people in the federal gov't admitted to themselves. Public opinion didn't get the law changed. It played a role but a small one. It was clearly the economic might of the black community (withholding their funds and collapsing the local economy) that caused the local gov't (and the feds) to finally relent.
Without that boycott, nothing would have happened.
The reality of it is it doesn't matter what we do!! There have been plenty of times where black people didn't do anything and obeyed commands and still were attacked. Still were shot at. Still were killed!!! So that just listen shit is bullshit. Will We be less likely to get attacked if we just listen and obey when our civil rights are being violated, sure maybe. But cops and the people behind them need to be held accountable for this shit to change, period!!! Its not us its them.....Your last sentence speaks volumes. I said it in another thread be “We” have to be smarter and make it home to our families.
It’s 100% the officers fault for shooting and killing him. But he had a simple warrant, they knew who he was and he had his Mom’s car. The simple fact is that he was scared and not thinking, and now he doesn’t have a chant to do it all over again.
Dude stop with the over exaggerations. What is with this new thing that people do that. I dont get it. The point is nothing he did deserve him being shot and killed period. So get that comply shit outta here. People always wanna switch narratives when it comes to these racist cops continually perpetuating this racist justice system. Again nothing he did should have had him killed!!! THEY SHOULD NOT HAVE EVEN DRAWN ANY GUNS ON HIM!!! Thats the issue and the problem. Stop concentrating on the victim.
His actions. So what about the ones where their actions didn't cause the results. What are they looking down saying????
Again we are talking about his actions. Which may or may not been the best. I dont like concentrating on his actions. Im concentrating on the cops. It really isn't that hard to understand. THERE HAVE BEEN COUNTLESS OF TIMES WERE BLACK PEOPLE OBEY AND STILL ARE VICTIMIZED!!!!
Cool we in agree. Clearly he was scared and extra so that caused him to do whatever. We all be somewhat scared at times we when are pulled over. But he didn't do anything where they should have killed him. And you know what, moms and other family members need to stop saying lets not get violent. I would love to see the reactions if just one mom came out and said lets burn this bitch down! She would be on every news station. Every talk show would want to have her on. To hear her opinion. She would get a national platform immediately. You think them fuckers wouldn't be scared then?? I would imagine change would speed up......
I tell my sons dont argue or fight. And just listen and be respectful. Call me and ill pull up. So im never was opposing what u were saying. It just burns my soul when we concentrate on the victim. Shit is just sickening to me. Im fucking pissed and hurt at the same time. Another one of us gone by some racist bullshit...
