Obi1kenobi: Black Americans are the greatest architects of their own problems. While I feel sympathy for the kid and the likes of Trayvon Martins, there's no doubt that as a group, African Americans are their own greatest enemies. No one who has witnessed their lives would ever like to live in a black neighbourhood. They're profiled and discriminated against by the justice system because they present a disproportionately huge security risk. In their victim mentality, they completely ignore the far greater menace of black-on-black crime while highlighting a few white-on-black incidents.

They need to get an education. They need to get themselved out of the gang culture. They need to break the cycle of raising most of their children in broken homes with single mothers knocked up by street thug baby daddies. They need to proactively seize the boundless opportunities in America rather than playing the victim and blaming all their considerable failures on the evil white man. They need greater political and ethnic consciousness to articulate a vision that will move their group forward.

They're an absolute mess.

This is complete bullshit, you are completely ignorant about the plight of African Americans.

It is the same African Americans that fought and broke the brutal force of Slavery, Racism, segregations, Jim crow etc. It is the same African americans that produced people like Martin Luther king which made US a place many blacks could immigrate to, it is the same African americans that suffered all the harsh history and discrimination, a thing you only read in books and make comclusions from, do not be this naive, without African Americans, you might not be able to immigrate to America today.

The system has been designed to keep this people down, although few will break away from this chain, but a huge amount will still be trapped into it. In US, African Americans can be found in all sphere of profession, just like their white counterpart. They have contributed their own quote in invention, civilization and the advancement of America, get your act right before you spill this rubbish on a public forum.Gbam

khiaa:

What do you being an Igbo man have to do with anything (not a damn thing). An Igbo man can be all those things that Tommy said you are as well, and so can a white, hispanic, asian, so stop with the stereotypes and generalisations. I knew you weren't African American just like I think you know that I am.

LastProphet:

GOD BLESS YOU, GOD BLESS YOU, GOD BLESS YOU! YOU ARE ONE AMONG THE FEW REASONABLE BLACKS LEFT IN THIS HOPELESS COUNTRY. SEE HOW BRAINLESS BLACK PEOPLE ARE? SEE HOW BRAINLESS? BLACKS JUST REMAIN THE DULL BLACKS THAT WE ARE EVEN IN AMERICA WHERE THEY HAVE LIVED FOR OVER 400 YEARS.

Why are you this dumb? your dumbness is beyond redemption. You have been clarified times without number that he didnt fought with the police, why regurgitating the same bullshit over and over again?

You're the dumbest of them all,did you even read the article at all Mumu just jumping into what you know nothing about...
See if you have nothing reasonable to contribute,fvck out from life

SirShymex:

This is just pure ignorance.

I honestly think this is why there is a huge disconnect between black diaspora and Africans on the continent. To understand African Americans, their plights, and how dysfunctional they're - you need to study their history and imagine yourself being in their world. I believe that's when you will be able to judge them objectively.

This is a systematic thing that has been going on for generations, and no matter how glossy the whole picture looks, there are certain things happening that you won't understand. Hence why in America, you see African Americans(and some Africans and Caribbeans) over-represented in the ghetto and gang culture. In the UK, Africans(especially Nigerians and Ghanaians) and Caribbeans are over-represented in the gang culture. In France, Germany, and Holland - Africans are over-represented in the gang culture. And that's basically because the system was created to produce misfits and monsters. Now juxtaposition Africans in the gang culture in Europe, who're more or less fresh immigrants starting from the 60's-70's - with African Americans who have been in America since the 1600's. Then you'll see why you need to understand their history before judging them.

Moreover, every black person looks the same - and you can be a victim of whatever happened to Mike Brown. Being black can be a crime sometimes, especially when you're a black male, and that's the truth.

Lucasbalo: Gbam. Buddy set this guys straight. Obviously, a lot of this guys don't know anything about living in the west.

Anacksunamun: says the nitwit sired by a clitless hag.

hermesprogidy: The funny thing is that African- Americans discriminate against other Africans, especially on this forum. Life is such an irony.

Anacksunamun: I don't curse African immigrants/AA brothers or sisters. I've never done that, it's just that I don't give an eff about them because they don't see us as humans. They look down on us. So what happens to them over there ain't my biz, I've got shItload of problems to tackle in Nigeria.

Not necessarily, AA hate threads, I mean Africans in diaspora look down on Africans. They make demeaning posts at us. They call us bush people, backwards peeps etc., at every given opportunity. There are countless threads with such posts. I can't be arsed to start fishing out countless posts from Diasporans insulting Nigeria/Africans, pay close attention from now onwards, you will see those posts. Let me give you two threads to drive home my points.

And this one, where an old woman was insulted by a Nigerian immigrant and her kids called "uncultured things".

DollyParton1:
Obama ain't black, dude is mixed race. When will people get that right.

Obi1kenobi:
Who said anything about what they contribute to civilization? Every group in America have made contributions to their civilization. The point is about the disproportionate representation of blacks in criminality. That is what is responsible for the prejudice and stereotyping and not any bullsh.it white conspiracy. Asians and Jews form a much greater economic threat to whites and yet, they don't labour under a white conspiracy to limit them. African Americans have a hell of a lot of opportunities in the system but they thrive on socio-political rebellion and a victim complex. It's a siege mentality cycle that they have to break out of to move on with their lives. Stop the blame and just move on.
