It took a lot of courage for her to do this, and she has my total respect.

Don




Thank You and Amen to people like her, who understand what the problems are. We are not talking about a whole race of people. But a class of people.

She is definitely talking about trash.

We need to do more to reward and recognize good parenting in the worst circumstances in America.
History has proven that parents who raise their kiddo's with a solid moral and ethical compass along with sacrificing to make sure their kiddo's hane a shot at a good education are successful in getting their kids out of the hood. These lessons are passed down to their kids etc.

I agree with the reward for accomplishments. However, there needs to be equal punishment for poor behavior. If you can't keep your legs together and have a litter of hood rats they should be taken away along with some other somewhat strict consequences to eliminate the behavior. Throwing money at minorities and telling them the world is out to get them all for a vote is just another form of slavery regardless of skin color. The only difference is a political party is their master.

In America, the racist narrative is all consuming. The desire to place black people outside of American society, outside of humanity is pervasive.

It goes beyond just saying, hey I don't agree with rioting, to this absurd belief that riots when carried out by black people prove our depravity and inhumanity and is separate from America.

This is racist thinking.

Throughout human history, human beings riot. One if the most common reasons human beings riot is because of state sanctioned violence, harassment, disrespect, etc directed at those citizens with no end in sight.

It's not difficult to see or to understand.

But in the context of black people, riots become in the minds of racists, yet another reason to place black people outside of America and outside of humanity.

The fact that such thinking finds an audience is proof of how racist America remains.

This woman speaks truth. This means you won't see coverage of it on any USA MSM "news" channel (broadcast or cable), local news will completely ignore it, and no race hucksters (including the NAACP) will acknowledge it. Liberal politicians? The olympics doesn't have athletes who can run away that fast.

This while privately all of them will say, she's 100% correct.

Dude, Its a Youtube video, not the leader of some national organization saying this. Thats why it wont get news coverage.

As for the thread itself, I find it hilarious. What this lady is basically saying is that black people need to better themselves, and no one disagrees with that, but she is pretending that there arent larger problems, the same as those on this thread.

She is addressing the symptom and not treating the disease, as most people do in this discussion. Which is exactly why nothing changes in the discussion.

Its funny, we have entire threads on economic stability and how it creates better lives, and when mentioned in the context of Baltimore,all of a sudden thats untrue.

Last but not least,i count 4 different post that talk about respect for this women because she speaks the "truth", but at what point did agreeing with someone's opinion become the qualification for you to respect their argument more so than someone you disagree with. Have we slipped that far in this nation, based on this thread we have.

This is more or less a "My version of good black people" vs "other black people" thread instead of anything constructive an that is the worst of all.

Yep, The black lady with the blue? lips is R-a-a-cist!

She and many more law abiding blacks have a 'desire' to put blacks (which would include themselves) "outside of society"?
Gotcha.

Oh and .. Burning down the stores they depend on for food, clothing, medicine and torching the homes they live in is because .. these "citizens see no end in sight"?

I guess that they are ending it their way?

Oh Please. The MSM posts youtube videos all the time.

It doesn't get news coverage because it's counter to all their pre-defined social narratives.

Not true at all, Its not going to get coverage for the same reason it is getting coverage here. People are using it to degrade black people rather than have a genuine discussion.

But that is beside the point seeing as CNN has indeed showed videos like this before, specifically from the black guy the NRA hired, i forget his name, but he is a comedian and has a Youtube channel.

Nah. That police shooting in Charleston absolutely invalidates that theory. It was neither light hearted nor funny.

What she said was racist and appeals to racists. There is no doubt about this. The beliefs that undergird her words are racist.

The idea that rioting happens because black rioters are Black bastards with bad parents as she said is an ignorant and racist belief that seeks to place the actions of black Americans outside of American society and humanity.

In America, we constantly have the discussion of whether black people are as human as other people.

Where instead of looking at the range of human behavior and seeing the actions of black people within that range.

We invent new reasons and understanding of behavior carried out by black Americans.

This results in the creation of all sorts of special black racial reasons for said behavior that all point to the same conclusion something is wrong with the black race.

In this case the behavior is rioting. That woman's explanation has to nothing to do with why actual human beings riot.

That's my point.

My thinking says when looking at human behavior that human beings sometimes riot.

My thinking also asks why do human beIngs riot, well for a lot of reasons, but by far the most common reason for rioting by humans is because of rampant state sanctioned violence, disrespect, and harrassment, poverty, etc against a group of people over a long period of time with no end in sight, and these factors when combined with a catalyst incidence like a killing, the results are very predictable and have occurred in human societies everywhere and repeatedly.

This is a fact


But in America we can't have that rational discussion because the racist narrative in America is that something is collectively wrong with the black race.

So Americans cannot look at those factors as the cause of rioting.

Instead we have to place the actions of black Americans as outside of American society and outside of humanity.

No black people riot for special black racial reasons having to do with being black bastards and bad parenting.

That this absurdity makes sense to anyone is proof of how racist America remains.
