[Indiglow Meta (R$G)]

"My mom says that, black boys get shot because sometimes they don't look their age, and I don't look my age. I'm 14; but I don't look 14. I'm kind of happy that, like, I didn't become a statistic," he says in retrospect.



Nah, it's because cacs are racist.

If she knows...why leave him more vulnerable?

 

[BmoreGorilla]

Nope wrong again. Him waking up late led to this situation. So if he had woke up on time with or without his phone he would not have been in this situation. So why not blame this kid for these actions.

He prolly used his cell as an alarm

But at the end of the day he's 14 and they do irresponsible shyt. Regardless whether he missed the bus or not something still could've happened to lead him to need his phone. In this case one simple phone call could've avoided all of this

 

[R.E.N. Spells Ren]

So whats the point of getting a 14 year old their own phone?

There's many reasons. Still doesn't mean it is a necessity thus she was not negligent in having her son catch a bus without one.

That’s the point whether he got on the bus or not this could have happened. Whether he had a phone or not this could have happened. Just remember Trayvon Martin was on his cellphone and he was still murdered by a racist punkass.

The reason to get a phone is to make calls is it not?

Different circumstances. Trayvon was confronted by a white supremacist. This kid was forced to seek help from people that don't look like him becuz his mother was being naïve about their living situation

But why stop there. This could've also have been prevented if the mother let him drive illegally. Yeah he may gotten a traffic ticket, maybe the car impounded too but he wouldn't have gotten shot at. Common logic says getting shot at is worse than a traffic fine. Mother was being naive not letting children drive cars when you think about it. Matter of fact she fukked up by having a black son to start with. She should've gotten impregnated by a white guy and had herself a mixed child, than none of this would've happened. After all it's naive to assume white people wouldn't discriminate against a black child.

There are so many things the mother could've done to prevent this if only she could predict the future and know that her racist neighbors shoot at petitioners on site.
That way it would be easy to decide which action carries the worst unforeseeable consequences.

99% of you would have no problem with her taking a phone that she paid for from her kid if this didn't happen.

Next thing you know you going start blaming husbands because some mugger pointed a gun at his wife to steal her wedding ring.

B b but if he didn't get her such a nice ring she wouldn't have gotten robbed.

b b but if she didn't have such a nice body he wouldn't have raped her.

B b but if she didn't send him to school the teacher wouldn't have molested him.

Oooh boy you are being willfully obtuse. So these people aren’t crazed white supremacist? Both instances dealt with perceived threats based on the mere fact that they were black boys. George had the same rationale these crazy ass mofos had. That they didn’t belong in that neighborhood. He was shot at because he wa black. Trayvon was attacked because he was black. Trayvon had his cellphone, This kid did not. That’s the difference which again shows doesn’t matter cell phone or not. The racist attacking children are the problem.

too many people in our community refuse to think logically, they start from their emotions and work their way backwards which is why we have all these ridiculous hypotheticals and arguments that are completely counterintuitive. I'm finally seeing that the only acceptable response to this thread is to state the obvious. "damn, that's fukked up, white people are racist". There's no room for assessing the circumstances that led to the kid accidentally knocking on the doors of white supremacists seeking help.


We have grown adults that refuse to stick to the facts of the case and for obvious reasons. The chain of events isn't something convoluted at all, it's pretty straight forward. The mother took the kid's phone, he woke up late, missed the bus, attempted to walk to school, got lost on the way and had no other choice but to knock on the door's of strangers because he didn't have any alternatives.


If a parent buys a child a cellphone, it's usually so they can communicate with each other in the event of an emergency. Emergency situations are completely unpredictable so the argument that "how would the mom know that he would get lost or miss the bus" is incredible because the people making this argument can't even recognize that they're arguing against their own position. A parent can't possibly know what will happen once the child walks out of the door, they only have an idea based on previous experiences. Emergency scenarios are deviations from the norm and that's the entire point of purchasing the cellphone.

They’re still two different situations with the only similarity being that a white person shot a gun. We know how sick white folks are so what are gonna do about it ?

I just don’t get it. You’d think these situations where an unarmed black male gets shot rarely happen based on the coli’s reaction. You’d think people would take these as teaching moments instead of bytching and complaining about the obvious. They keep complaining about how things should be when they know the reality is that we are second class citizens here and we need to move different. And the saddest part of all is if he had been shot at by another black person nikkas on here would be shytting on the mother some way some how

 

[Benefited]

Exactly,this is a disgusting showing by thecoli today.

Can't believe this thread has devolved into people trying to blame the mother,and the focus taken off the racist who shot at this kid. And have tramautized the mother and son for life. I tell you what I know,some of your brains have been warped tragically. Your mind doing gymnastics to find ways to blame the black person involved in these situations. This is the type of things that cacs do in order steer blame away from themselves on a daily basis.

You could find a way to play the blame game for damn near every victim if you wanted to reach. But why would you reach is the question

Whats next?are we going to ask what he was wearing and say maybe if he had on slacks and his shirt tucked in,this wouldn't have happened?

 

[I Really Mean It]

Some of you really sound like slaves admonishing Kunta for running away from the plantation, on some, "That dang fool knew he shoudna dun dat! Now Massa Davis gon whip us all! Luhd help us!"

You seem smart. And even though I disagree with you, I appreciate your thoughts. But it's weird that you keep calling for logic, but you're not using it. You're ASSUMING he woke up late because his mom took the phone, and you're whole argument stands on that assumption. Because if it was the kid's fault for missing the bus, you can't blame the mother because there shouldn't have been an emergency at all.
So here:
A Black Teenager Asked for Directions. A Man Responded With Gunfire.

Brennan Walker, 14, of Rochester Hills, Mich., woke up around 7:30 a.m. on Thursday — too late. He had slept through his alarm and was going to miss the school bus.

Should we blame the mother for not sending him to bed earlier? Now, you'll either have to move the goalposts or place blame on the teen.

You decry ridiculous hypotheticals and arguments, yet you're unaware that you're the one flaming them with "IF the mother didn't"....arguments. I'm sure she knew the importance of the kid having a phone, because she provided one for him. So, to lecture her would be moot. She took it for a disciplinary reason. Sometimes you have to chose between what's best and what's right. YOU CANNOT BAT .1000 at controling outcomes, because you dont control all of the players. No matter how "logical" your moves are. That's what others mean by "you can't predict". You can handle things perfectly and still take an L.
