Continue worshipping whites while they continue killing, exploiting, maltreating and destroying you. Jesus said you should turn the other cheek when slapped. Effeminated African youths!

We criticize them cos they are white but if you see how some black cops also treat their fellow blacks, you begin wonder. This is the major reason I hate America.
You are RIGHT...
Even the blacks in the US fight among themselves.

I still don’t understand your obsession with the Democrats. Here’s a clear case a cop who is a white supremacist as well as a Trump Maga supporter and yet you still think it’s “the democrats”. And to top it all, you have never been to America but you think you know the democrats. Bros, I would encourage you to do some research, the truth would shock you.

I have never been to where? grin cheesy

Why do you Nigerians always believe everyone has been what you have been through . Please I don't want to have any " travel is a status" discussions again in my life . I am beyond that kind of talk , I was born into travelling and didn't have wait till I was an adult and working before I started travelling like most of you ..

Okay back to the topic this another Democrat prop flag operation !!!! We saw Jussie Smollet do it and even went as far as buying his attackers maga hats to wear ...Ask yourself while will any cop snuff out the life of a handcuffed man that had even peed on his body in front of so many cameras and not even flinch ...It's because he was working an agenda which I predicted the moment I saw the footage and and less than 24 hours later I was proven right ...

This should be an eye opener for those who think America is a good place to stay.

I've read several responses to this post and it's quite mind-boggling the way some people rationalize the killing. Racism is real here and Trump is making every effort to elevate it.

Many immigrants privileges have been removed by the racist federal government and many more blacks in tighter positions financially.

There was a riot yesterday, the day it happened and the people requested that the policemen be tried for murder. A request the police and city officials remain silent about.

Meanwhile, let us focus on Nigeria. The government is killing this generation gradually by immersing the nation into foreign debts, rendering the youths impotent through joblessness and making all infrastructure go bad.

Don’t bother yourself with either Democrats or Republicans antics in the USA. There's nothing you can do about it from Nigeria.

Let us chase the witches and wizards out of the government houses.

Period.

You are RIGHT...
But Nigeria is ROTTEN.
Any Effort you put in making it a better place usually ends in futility.

Nigeria Government kills businesses and ideas unlike the American Government.
Nigeria's impunity is nowhere to be compared to that of the US.
NO ONE cherishes leaving his country not to talk of a continent devoid of Natural Disasters.
Our Leaders have Robbed Nigeria of sustainable development and relocated their loots abroad.
We can't hold them responsible since they collude with our security operatives to achieve such.
That's why PEOPLE are Fed up with Nigeria too.
..... a NATION that's always sitting on a Keg of Gunpowder.
Does it make sense..?
If we start relocating to Nigeria to assist in fixing this mess, 70% will be assassinated in just a week.
Most Nigerians are willing to come back and invest, but the fear of kidnappers, police harassment, Fulani bandits and Boko Haram is keeping them away
It's Pathetic

Please don’t be offended. I’m not seeking to discredit or attack you in any way but I strongly believe you have not been to the Us. I say this cos the way you talk about american politics mirrors my own beliefs before moving to the US five years ago. Again, I don’t say this to attack or discredit you but it’s just my observation.

You see before moving to the US, I was not well informed. Everything I knew about the Us was from movies and CNN. Democrats and republicans were the same to me. Interestingly, back then, I didn’t hear much negative news about the republicans from CNN either. (Btw, Fox News is complete trash)

Additionally, unlike you, I was not well travelled either. I had only visited one country - Cotonou, before relocating to the US. I did not come from a wealthy family either. In fact you can trace my journey to the US on this forum by reading my previous posts. I came here through my Masters and was lucky to marry the woman of my dreams. Again, I don’t say any of this to brag but to highlight that I do not come from a family of means and verify that I’ve lived here for 5 years.

The thing is most Nigerians who visit or migrate here all learn one thing - that America is a completely different story from the paradise you see on TV. The democrats, although not saints, are not the enemy. The republicans are. What you will quickly learn is that every progressive, booming, well to do state or city has Democrats as leaders. And almost every regressive,poor state or city has Republican leadership. From healthcare to Medicaid to Education, Democrats leads. And you would know this if you have been here. I’m not talking Wikipedia articles, I’m talking live here on the streets. The racism, the micro-aggressions, the police brutality - you see all that when you visit or live here.

You talk of Jossie Smollet, do you have any proof Jossie is a registered Democrat? Additionally, people - whether Democrats or Republicans - lie all the time. It has nothing to do with political affiliations. Did you see the news of the white lady who claimed 2 black men kidnapped and killed her son? Turns out she killed her child herself. What if I told you she was a Republican? Does that mean all republicans are bad? So why the hate towards democrats?

What about Voters fraud in the Us? In the state I live, the Republican Party was caught committing voters fraud. Please look it up. What about healthcare? Republicans are taking away any form of health assistance to the poor and middle class. Have you heard about that? What about education? Republicans are cutting education budgets and trying to put an end to the free k-12 school system in the Us, I don’t see you talking about that either. See, I could go on and on. That’s why I ask, why the hate for Democrats and the love for republicans/Trump? Can you name one policy by Trump/Republicans that has benefitted the average American?

My point is living here gives u a completely different perspective you can never get online or from tv. And from the way you talk, it’s shows you’ve never been here.

For you information, this happens EVERYDAY in America, this just happened to be on VIDEO. Without video and pictorial evidence, the case will just be another Black man "resisting" arrest and died in the process of arrest.


A lot of people don't even know the real America, their opinions are formed based of Hollywood and music videos... grin grin grin grin grin

I have lived it, seen it all. The judiciary system will lock a black man up in a jiffy with the slightest excuse while a white man will walk away from.
The prison system is a BIG BUSINESS meant to keep people locked up for as long as possible.
America is good and fantastic but it's far from the UTOPIAN that a lot of these kids think it is.


I keep saying this. Only those who have lived or currently live in America would know this. Most Nairalandlers have never crossed the border and yet they seem to have a strong opinion of how America operates. Smh

Think of one thing tho, what ordinary policeman allows himself to be caught on camera killing an innocent citizen if not an organised plot playing out to feed the narrative of racism under Trump, then showing him in another pic wearing make whites great again? Just think deep before you answer.

Those cops are far better trained than the ones here. They have a whole lot to lose if they try that. At least laws still work in that country... Any crowd action would have made them backtrack, call for back up, thereby saving the life of the unarmed suspect.

35 years? Wow! That's almost more the years I have spent on this Earth. And to relocate back to Nigeria? That's interesting. My aunt has spent 38 years over there too, and she really wishes she could relocate, but when she hears about all the bad things happening in Naija, she isn't encouraged. And i can see you live in Ibadan...same with me. That's interesting. I hope settling down in Ibadan has been great. I love the city too.
Believe me it's not easy. It takes people with forthsight to plan the relocation. And most Nigerians don't have the resources to relocate because it's too expensive. As you know that land cost around 20 to 30m. in my area and majority of Nigerians in U.S. can't afford it. Anyway thanks.

I am sorry to say, but you are one sick dude. You have no iota of humanity in you. Even animals as low on the evolutionary ladder as rats and hamsters have sympathy. You mean you watch that horrible video of life being snuffed out of a human being and the only emotion you feel is hatred for Democrats? The Democrats arranged 4 white guys to murder a blackman, so that white supremacist can be blamed, and in extension Trump and Republicans can be blamed?

You don't even care about the fact that the murdered man has a family - a father, and husband, a brother and a fiancé.

So from what you are insinuating, either the 4 white policemen are Democrats and are in on the hoax, or the 4 policemen were dismissed unjustly and should be recalled and commended.

Can't be offended because when you make assertions you can't prove, you downgrade your own intelligence. You know nothing about me and I've got nothing to prove. But I can clearly tell you I almost certainly know more about police "brutality" on blacks that's been going on even before Trump than you do.
But, unlike you I also know when something is political. I'm intelligent enough to know that there are people who will try to play that old card to their political advantage. The problem is most of y'all can't think too deep. You're damn too sentimental and manipulable by these politicians.
Tell me how many policemen will take a picture with a cap saying "Make whites great again". Are you guys so gullible? It's clearly an ochestration to tie what is naturally occurring to being fuelled by Trump's administration. And then they release another picture of the same man with Trump. Isn't it obvious? Just do the math already.
Boden just messed himself up and they immediately came up with this to drive the attention away from him and turn the hate on Trump. Dems do it every election or have you forgotten how many such cases were reported in the heat of 2016 elections. You guys need to get real smart and study the trends. The whites continue to control blacks minds through racial sentiments and y'all keep falling for this everytime. Get smart. Learn from Candace Owens.
I am not a bot programmed by the media. I have a mind of my own and know how to self-analyze. No white, Biden, Dems and all will tell me how to vote. Maybe you should try that too.
Go google data on police brutality across all colours last year alone and you won't see it on the lamestream media on Google frontpage so you'd know that there is a lot going on that the media will never report because their aim is the racial divide narrative which secures political interests leaving superficial researchers and distant observers like you in the dark.
There have been more white victims than blacks in police hands yet the media never reports this.
Of course I know some whites will always be toxic racists but I can assure you there are politicians taking advantage of this and manipulating the situation ON BOTH CAMPS for personal gains.
