Good question if someone was fleeing after a property crime you couldn't shoot him.Users on LSA was saying the same sentiments about how dangerous the homeless are in the subway.
My only thing I'm arguing is why when a threat is subdued via this situation vs me shooting an armed escaping robber in the back fleeing my yard? Both situation neutralized a threat completely right?

@Outlaw So can I surmise by your neg of me and statement that You disagree with what Malcolm X stated above? Have you read his other statements pertaining to how he viewed White Liberals too.Malcolm X also spoke on the danger of trusting Liberals too. He was the original #Bothsider.
“The White liberal is the worst enemy to America and the worst enemy to the Black man. Let me first explain what I mean by this White liberal. In America there’s no such thing as Democrats and Republicans anymore. That’s antiquated. In America you have liberals and conservatives. This is what the American political structure boils down to among Whites. The only people who are still living in the past and thinks in terms of “I’m a Democrat” or “I’m a Republican” is the American Negro. He’s the one who runs around bragging about party affiliation and he’s the one who sticks to the Democrat or sticks to the Republican, but White people in America are divided into two groups, liberals and Republicans…or rather, liberals and conservatives. And when you find White people vote in the political picture, they’re not divided in terms of Democrats and Republicans, they’re divided consistently as conservatives and as liberal. The Democrats who are conservative vote with Republicans who are conservative. Democrats who are liberals vote with Republicans who are liberals. You find this in Washington, DC. Now the White liberals aren’t White people who are for independence, who are liberal, who are moral, who are ethical in their thinking, they are just a faction of White people who are jockeying for power the same as the White conservatives are a faction of White people who are jockeying for power. Now they are fighting each other for booty, for power, for prestige and the one who is the football in the game is the Negro. Twenty million Black people in this country are a political football, a political pawn an economic football, an economic pawn, a social football, a social pawn...”

Be Black first, not party first.
Only one side is celebrating Penny getting off and it’s not liberals.@Outlaw So can I surmise by your neg of me and statement that You disagree with what Malcolm X stated above? Have you read his other statements pertaining to how he viewed White Liberals too.
How about this? Does this one anger you too?
"The white liberal differs from the white conservative only in one way: the liberal is more deceitful than the conservative. The liberal is more hypocritical than the conservative. Both want power, but the white liberal is the one who has perfected the art of posing as the Negro's friend and benefactor; and by winning the friendship, allegiance, and support of the Negro, the white liberal is able to use the Negro as a pawn or tool in this political "football game" that is constantly raging between the white liberals and white conservatives."
-Malcolm X
My response was to a particular post, which made a statement about what Malcolm X said about one side. I pointed out he had something to say about the other side too. It had nothing to do with what the Conservatives are supporting or not, but what Malcolm X was stating to expose the true spectrum of his views.Only one side is celebrating Penny getting off and it’s not liberals.
Malcolm X is a fallible human being just like anyone else, his quote was in context of his day, it no longer applies to 2024. Racist conservatives are way worse than white liberals, you would have to be a both sides fool to think otherwise
People who cherry-pick his words ignore the change he underwent after his pilgrimage to Mecca.Only one side is celebrating Penny getting off and it’s not liberals.

Brother, remember the time that White college girls came into the restaurant—the one who wanted to help the [Black] Muslims and the Whites get together—and I told her there wasn't a ghost of a chance and she went away crying? Well, I've lived to regret that incident. In many parts of the African continent, I saw White students helping Black people. Something like this kills a lot of argument. I did many things as a [Black] Muslim that I'm sorry for now. I was a zombie then—like all [Black] Muslims—I was hypnotized, pointed in a certain direction and told to march. Well, I guess a man's entitled to make a fool of himself if he's ready to pay the cost. It cost me 12 years.
That was a bad scene, brother. The sickness and madness of those days—I'm glad to be free of them."
The reason for that, is becasue we believe he was right in his original statements. That belief is based on what we have seen over these past 50+ years, as compared to the idea that he had later about some comboya come togetherness change of opinion he had, after he left the NOI. Time has actually demonstrated his original statements were correct, in many of our opinions.People who cherry-pick his words ignore the change he underwent after his pilgrimage to Mecca.
What bothers me is that you’re trying to act as a conservative apologist by cowardly hiding behind Malcolm x quotes like it applies to 2024.My response was to a particular post, which made a statement about what Malcolm X said about one side. I pointed out he had something to say about the other side too. It had nothing to do with what the Conservatives are supporting or not, but what Malcolm X was stating to expose the true spectrum of his views.
So I ask again, does what he stated bother you like the previous statement I placed up by him?
No, that is what you want to take from it, because it makes it easier for you to continue to only look critically at one side of the problem. You want to think that it is only the Conservatives that are the problem, but I am pointing out that is not the case. The problem is Bipartisan, but when you only accept information from the side you support, then it is easy for that side to obscure its on failures that it has contributed to.What bothers me is that you’re trying to act is a conservative apologist by cowardly hiding behind Malcolm x quotes like it applies to 2024.
Yes the white liberals who fully supported BLM in 2020 and progressive police reform is the same as Cacs who parade around killers of black men as cultural heroes.
You know what? Malcolm x was fukking wrong.
The enemy of the black man isn’t the white liberal. It’s #BOTHSIDES c00ns like yourself who are useful idiots for racist conservatives. You’re more than willing to halt progress for the black man for the sake of being a self righteous contrarian. Conservatives love that more than anything because they don’t even have to pay you c00ns to do their work for them.
Yes you’re not a liberal or a conservative, you’re a contrarian. You’re worse for the black man than a white liberal easily. At least the white liberal will fight for the black man’s rights. Your apathy guarantees a conservative victory which means the rollback of black civil rights.No, that is what you want to take from it, because it makes it easier for you to continue to only look critically at one side of the problem.

Malcolm X explained this years ago, and so I used him as a resource to state what I have been stating all along. Be Black first, not party, not politicla spectrum, but Black first. Judge each action through a lense of how it affects us first, not how you are told by the party you normally support tells you to feel about it. Look at information from multiple sources, gain a more holistic picture of what is going on, not a narrow picture that is fed to you by one side.
The same thing I say to you, is the same thing I say to Black conservatives. You know what they call me when I do that? A Liberal. you know what you call me, when I do that, a Conservative. Think about that for a second, and ponder why each of you have the same response of claiming I am on the other-side, when I give you both the same answers?
No the fukk they aren't. You got racist white liberals all in the art world and in sports.Only one side is celebrating Penny getting off and it’s not liberals.

I am an Independent. You feel I am a contrarian, because now I exposed that the Conservatives view me as one of you. Instead of seeing that I am neither, but independent of both, you rather use the negative designation for my positions.Yes you’re not a liberal or a conservative, you’re a contrarian.
