BadBoy25: I don't like how black people reason like wild animals sometimes,it really makes me sad . black cops Harass or even kill black people and no one says anything ,white cops harass or kill white people and no one says anything . if black people are really going to continue with this self pity It's very sad indeed. Very! |

Sweetlemon: Nah, Malcolm X told me to ride, and I'm going to ride till the wheels fall off. I'm a black man and it's black brotherhood forever. And like he said again, "I believe in the brotherhood of man, all men, but I don't believe in brotherhood with anybody who doesn't want brotherhood with me. I believe in treating people right, but I'm not going to waste my time trying to treat somebody right who doesn't know how to return the treatment." So, basically that's how I ride...and for the black women who want to ride with us in "brotherhood" - they have to learn how to start doing the right things, by supporting black men. Respect is reciprocal! Bring ya lips here, let me give you a kiss, Aunt Tomasina! |

technophile: There are 3 sides of the story, maybe the boy was resisting arrest, sorry no mb to watch the videos. Can somebody explain to me what really happened?the police usually have two guns, one with rubber ammo, while the other with life ammo. He could have use a pepper spray also , you know? You only kill if your life is in danger , but the officer life wasn't endangered, because he was was the one struggling with the black chap , while he was resisting . if he had left the black chap , situation would had returned to normal. There were many ways the officer could have used to isolate the issue, killing wasn't part of it. This shows the officer lack professionalism. The major problem roving round the black community, especially those situated in the suburbs is , they blame their misfortune on the white folks. When a black folk does what's wrong, and white officer interrogate him/her, he/she would say "is it because I'm black" No! it because you are doing what is wrong. We black are asking for too much, and what we are asking is to take away other races freedom, but that can't be given to us, because the bank of justice would not go bankrupt because of us. USA is the freest and the safest place that can accommodate our kind in the world. Instead of making others feel guilty for what we did wrong, why not do the right things and get credit for a job well done? When a black man/officer kills a white folk, they don't read prejudicial meaning or protest for it, but we always document ours in the black book. But why? My advice for black kids is , stay away from drugs, do what is right, possibly get some college and No one ll kill or harass you for doing what is right. Different color, but one people. RIP to the two black guys that were wrongly killed within the space of a month. Eric Ganer and Mike Brown |

Lucasbalo: Buddy, don't let this lady get your BP up. Just ignore her. She seems like she has something personal against you. I know what's she unto. She loves those opportunistic white folks in Nigeria, and she alludes to them staring at her all the time. Anyway, I'm just trying to give her the negro wake up call - the same one Steven "Mr. Articulate" A. Smith got a few weeks, after a white woman got his ar.se suspended, despite apologising everywhere like a fool for something that wasn't even over-the-top like that. Yet the same Uncle Tom will never apologise to black folks. 3 Likes |

lafuria1:It's funny how blacks love to call whites racist but majority of successful black men and women are married to white folks.Like I said earlier white doesn't hate any race,we just look out for our own. So blacks should stop playing the victim's role when they are the biggest racist.They should be grateful White men brought them to America from Africa and stop whining like little kids. |

lastpage: You should take your own advice. This was the original post: EnlightenedSoul: Apparently the kid is a gang member (Bloods), and eyewitness accounts are telling us that there was an altercation wherein the young man made a grab for the officers gun. Still, I'll reserve my judgement until all the facts are out & confirmed 100%. Poster said she had heard the boy was a gang member but was reserving her judgement until she knew all the facts This was your response: lastpage: One person decided to wait for all the facts to emerge before making an informed judgement. The other made an uninformed judgement based on LOOKS and an impending college admission Can you honestly tell us who the dolt is here? 1 Like |

Lucasbalo: Like I said in one of my earlier posts, some of this people pontificating never steps outside Nigeria and they can tell you how people in the West lives. They are very quick to call names and to me that's the end of discussion . They don't understand the experience and most of them just run with what they read and see in the media. Some were even alluding to the guy being a gang member without knowing who he's. When Harvard professor, Henry Gates, was profiled in his own house - I bet he was gang banging in there with books and research papers. Once you're a black male, you're a suspect to the police, regardless of your status or how you look. Even the media is awash with stories of all kinds of black academics and professionals who have been profiled by the police, and how they still get profiled all the time. 2 Likes |

All of you thinking that black guys are sweet, innocent, harmless people. I'm so sorry for you. As a black African, you are safer living in the midst of white Americans than black Americans. You will be so shocked at what the average black guy has done before his 12th birthday! Most of them belong to one gang or the other who fight and bully other blacks. Plus they don't just send Africans. As for many of the black girls, choi! Stay there! Don't worry you won't understand until you go see things for yourself or if you have family and friends there. 2 Likes |

Anacksunamun: Maybe, it is; but doesn't deserve to speak out against the heartless killing of an unarmed teen? he has the right to speak. this is an online forum just as she also has the right to speak. The issue is when you translate a struggle few Africans can relate with to all Africans in addition to his perceived contempt (real or not) for the same Africans - this was made very clear by Nihilist. Aficans have issues they face and survival is critical for them. The killing of Brown was tragic.. ditto the guy choked to death in NYC Police brutality has no place in the modern era, especially one this needless Tragic loss of life 1 Like |

Cctv and? Cctv or not, People can only see what the police want you to see on there. If the deceased's family has money or can raise money to hire a private investigator with death wish, then maybe they can get justice. lafuria1: |

SirShymex:You have to understand that a lot of this people are so fascinated with the Western cultures and they get their facts from watching movies , BET, all this Reality Shows. They don't know that is not real life for people that live in the West. I visit Nigeria twice a year and I couldn't watch DSTV. It's just like I am in Chicago . That's why you see all this brainwashed ideas of them worshipping their white over lords. No matter what you say, you are not going to change their minds.

As for the cops-against-black-men rumour. It's not as bad as that. At all. This is just the handiwork of oversensitive blacks. In the US, if you live your life well, don't join gangs, don't go about with arms without license, mind your business, respect others, don't over-speed especially at night, etc. You are good to go. And if you are hard working, the sky will be your starting point. Yes, there will always be few bullies here and there but ain't nobody gonna turn you down at anywhere if you have what it takes. My younger brother is now a supervisor (after only 2 years) in one of the major mega departmental stores in the US. He's also one of the few blacks and one of the youngest (he's still a student) Why? because he's hardworking. The most powerful couple in show business today what race are they? The most successful athletes and sports men/women. The Williams sisters, NBA stars (those guys are practically worshiped!) what race are they? The biggest music stars, what race are they? Do you know how many supreme court judges, doctors, engineers that are black? Do you know how many black graduates Harvard keeps producing? I could go on and on. Black people really need to chill abeg. All thses things happen to all races, not just blacks. It's just a matter of being unlucky. 2 Likes |
