I can't give you certain information, and it is very secretive. But I can give you some details.


It's non-violent. It's intellectual and cultural. It IS addressing inner city problems. Crime as well as Economy. It is NOT racist. And it was started by blacks and whites from across the aisle.



If the Boomers could form their own strong Movement, we might have a break from the current power structure and finally start to get some things done.



Let's put it this way. (Guessing your Conservative). The 'Liberal' media does NOT want us heard from. Anything said will be used against The Movement. So I don't make it easy.

You'll just have to wait for it. Or follow along yourself.

When I started raising awareness about the Police issue I was called every name in the book. Ridiculed. Threatened. Everything. But look what we have now. A Movement to stop Police Corruption.


http://www.city-data.com/forum/polit...ke-slaves.html


Keep betting against me.
You have NO idea what I would help or not help. But no, I won't support some super secret, shady back door agenda to take over the world. "Your side"? WTF does that mean. You actually believe that there is a conspiracy to hold a specific demographic back from being law abiding, successful human beings. Yeah, go ahead and point that finger everywhere except inward. Guess what? I and all of my squeaky clean fellow 1%er white friends would love for everyone to live a higher standard. Morally, ethically and financially. It is not OUR fault that instead of fixing the problems within those communities that prevent them from doing so, they choose to blame everyone and everything else and expect "MY SIDE" to roll over, apologize for something we have no control over and pay to fix it. The one or two percent of police that are at the very least sub-standard at their job are not to blame for the what is it an 85%? single parent families in the hood rate that is the biggest issue in the area. Who cares if there is a "Movement to stop Police Corruption?" What exactly is it going to fix in your neck of the woods. Will it stop the 50 black on black murders in Chicago next month? The 5 of you in "#TheMovement" can go ahead and take "credit" if you want to look at it this way for causing more issues between the Authorities and the hood if you want. Good job. VERY helpful.

The White House has been rewarding their bad behavior for years now. Why do tax payers put up with it?

Elections do matter, so I hope the "dumbed down" voters have experienced enough to wake up!

Also, very well said SSPistol - many are so very tired of the endless whine that we don't even hear it anymore as it doesn't exist.

Thanks for proving my point.



If I wanted your help, or you to join, I wouldn't keep it secret from you.




I've proven in these threads, primarily the Politics and Controversy's section, that I can efficiently problem solve, research, and create policy that has a positive change on society.



I've proved it to the world. I don't need to prove it to you. The ones who are really pulling the strings, they know.

Logical fallacy. Issues are not "movements".

If you actually changed any policy you would be posting it and screaming it from the rooftops. Your delusions of being the next MLK are just that......delusions. The best part is you think you are this great debater, but in reality you are just another person crying like the proverbial victim and pulling out your race card.

Yet another logical fallacy argument. You pass insult to create false authority for yourself. You "movement" is fake and you have done absolutely nothing to raise any issues. (well beyond the fact that you have issues and your subscription isn't up yet)

They already got LOTS of money from the government, and it didn't help at all.

Maybe the Clinton Foundation could pony up the money, instead of sending it off to foreign countries.

Soros needs to pay for it. He hired the goons that protested and caused damage, didn't he?
