The 2nd amendment doesn't apply to black people. None of the amendments do.

The gun laws in this country were created specifically to disarm black people:

Yea I was aware that legislators disarmed Black people.

A lot of African Americans may not even realize that modern Police departments were created to terrorize Black people; they were created out of Slave patrols and Night Watches.

My position is that the 2nd amendment people can't be that sold on their position if they can't see that Black people and the police departments is exactly what the drafters of the 2nd amendment were pointing to.

And that's my point. There needs be a code amongst black men where we protect black neighborhoods...even from cops. And I'm not talking one black guy because then HE and HE ALONE becomes a target. No, there needs to coordinated action amongst the men of that neighborhood to protect women, children and even other men from outside forces who come in to do harm.

Peace

this is what nationalists were doing in the 70's!!!

of course THEY broke that shyt up

and right when we saw a resurgence in the late 80's, nikkaS came along and killed that movement.

 

[Kane1]

shyt never fukking end.

As a black man, being black living in America never safe for black people. AmeriKKKa.

And it won't end.....til we move from 'all talk' phase to the 'all action' phase

Hmmm.. let's see.
No job creation in black communities
No value for competitive education in black communities
No desire for black people to live among themselves unless forced by poverty.











With ya staking ass nikka

last one is bullshyt. Black people don't mind living around equally successful black people.

Of course, there were many examples known and unknown. Deacons of Defense, Black Panther Party, etc. There have been many instances of black people taking arms and standing up to attacks against them in their neighborhoods.

It is obvious that we cannot expect protection from the government whom we pay via our tax dollars.

The bolded is 100% false. The majority of the white people who created those amendments owned slaves. They knew 100% that none of the "rights" they were writing were intended for black people. White politicians understand it, white police officers understand it, and the white masses understand it.

It seems the only people who are confused is black people. Black people have never been citizens in this country so the rights afforded to citizens doesn't apply to us.

that's just plain stupid so from your understanding is if I kill a man in self defense I should be treated as a serial killer and when u say one group killing thousands are u talking about the police

Killing in self defense isn't murder. I'm saying we need to be more outraged at the issues that affect us the most. You and I have a much greater chance to get killed by other black men than cops. Is that true or not?

Black people have a right to live and not be slaughtered. Unfortunately, the government does not believe so.

unfortunately, black people don't think so either. Or we'd not kill each other at such a high rate.

He wasn't resisting when he got shot. Watch the video again. The cop literally said "I swear to God" and probably thought to himself that he'd had enough and just started shooting. How many shots do you need to get someone to stop resisting? Why shoot at all?

The first step is to admit that nothing will ever change. The answer to the Black problem will be as much isolation as possible from all other groups, but folks don't really want that anyway.

I will add that I wouldn't have resisted. However, if you've ever had to deal with cops, it's not hard to see how their abrasive and aggressive nature would rub some individuals wrongly, especially when those individuals feel as if nothing has been done to warrant any aggression. One second, the man was standing up and the next, he was being tackled to the ground.

Again...I didn't say he resisted. These dude was out right murdered!! They can and will spin it however they like...what we all saw was MURDER! Im just giving advice and I'm aware that even not resisting these days isn't even a guarantee that you won't be killed...but it's better than these dudes talking about picking up a gun. They got more guns!! They got more of everything possible to kill u!! That's not the answer...IMO.


I've been stopped b4 shyt I've had cops enter my crib thru the window guns drawn because they though I "suspect" they were chasing entered thru my open window, then they give me shyt because IM mad "claiming I have an attitude" SMFH. I know how infuriating it is!! I know how disrespected and helpless u can feel in these situations. I get it! I'm not saying turn the other cheek...I'm just saying don't go getting yourself killed over pride.

As far as isolation goes...that's a hard thing given today society. Again it's completed, it's starts with us tho. We gotta strengthen our communities first!

 

[MajorVitaman]

Dudes were in that thread saying it was a stupid idea because there needs to be a plan to not spend money on Christmas

what's it gonna take breh? I can't keep seeing the same ole shyt happening over & over

 

[mcdivit85]

unfortunately, black people don't think so either. Or we'd not kill each other at such a high rate.

Now is not the time for that "we is our own worst enemy" sh#t breh

I get that. It is not lost on me.

However, when you examine that amendment the issues with Black people and the Police Departments is exactly what the drafters were pointing to. We both realize that the police department was created specifically to terrorize Black people; which is exactly what the amendment speaks to.

Again, you keep thinking the amendments apply to black people. Simple question, are black people treated like citizens in this country?
