im sorry but other than police training, and demilitarizing what do you think is going to happen ? and you think this trial nor those riots will cause a domino effect? huh wtf. and hostile? tf. that was hostile? wow.

and i could go thru biden and kamala's speeches and their executive orders but that takes time, and im on a freakin messageboard, not at the dinner table with my fam, chill.

no offense to you but I’m just tired of the bare minimum, we’ve been banning “ chokeholds “ for how long now ? It’s still in practice . There’s nothing in that link you post about accountability, that if a police officer violate our rights or break the law like a normal civilian , they will be under the same amount of scrutiny.

lol I didn’t mean to call you hostile , but you came on here saying you have to spoon feed us & that article you provided with didn’t clarify on anything that we didn’t already know .

The right way, the wrong way and the Max Power way
What happened was exactly what they wanted to happen.

Black folks got so emotional and scared from the constant media images that they voted for a former segregationist and crafter of the Crime Bill to come save them.

They were so emotional and so afraid that they gave this white man more of their votes than the first Black president. Without getting anything specific in return to address the source of their fear.


-BLM grifted the bag for the white LGBT community.

-Stacey Abrams gets her awards, trophies and head pats.

-Wall Street finna eat.

-More wars and colonization overseas

-Cops still harming Black folks with no accountability or repercussions.

- And now they can use the violence and property destruction as an excuse to hire MORE police.



Flawless execution by the White Liberal once again.

Realest shyt ever.

Most blatant psyop I've seen with my own 2 eyes and the sheep just fell for it.

yea the accountability part we are still working on, thats WHY this trial is so important, plus now that biden and harris have won, they've been really wanting to pass fbi levels of responsibility. this means, if states failt o trial, they can be tried federal and thats HUGE.

we just gotta wait and see how this trial goes, like i said, domino effect, think of rosa parks. it started off with that little woman, then protest, then state laws, then boom federal. it didnt happen in less than a year. i actually believe this time, esp after worldwide protest, its here.

covid aint helping tho :francis:

rosa parks woulda bypassed the entire bus during covid we'd still be in the back prolly. nah im joking hahaha.

Well one of the problems is that these activists will jump on these police shootings when they happen but then go quiet as soon as the hype dies down. Soon as some shyt happens, you have hundreds of people marching then later when it dies down, you have 50, then 10, etc. Then people start looking at them crazy like why are you out here? Also, the police unions, FOI, etc will never go against their cops period! You have to change this. Cops go into these city council meetings when the hype dies down and beg for more money to pay their cops or try to get more cops for their departments and usually get what they want. The problem is that a lot of folks stop paying attention after the hype dies down.

This and folks forget that the cops union donate money to these politicians campaigns and vote in large blocks against or for the mayor. Thats why the mayors often times don't want to go against the police unions.

You see the same thing with these teacher unions in places like Chicago. Where the chicago teachers union are the 3rd most powerful voting blocks in chicago (police union, fire fighters union and teachers union). They can make or break the mayor with money or votes or both. So the mayor always treads lightly with the teachers union. Or buckles when they go in strike.

Real talk Rahm Emanual was a dead man walking politically after Laquan McDonald incident. But the he was half past dead prior from his run ins with teachers union over the years and they were ready to pull their votes and money away from his punk ass.

None of those protests worked until they touched the money. U notice no one said shyt till the stores were looted and they were going to cac neighborhoods? :mjpls:

Or when threats about boycotting started. Once kats were online talking about boycotting organizations that didn't support BLM then your started getting these companies doing the whole :whoa:

But we can use the GME short squeeze for example. Once them hedge funds were losing billions. They began to cry to theese same politicians that they line their pockets with money. Suddenly you had politicans come out saying laws needed to be changed.

At the end of the day folks react to violence and or economical pressure. We don't own any planes or tanks or large amounts of weaponry. Some country is not gonna support us in a proxy war.

But we do got a lot and I mean a lot of money in terms of buying power that we can take away from these folks. Doing as the late great MLK said in redistrubuting the pain (economically). You can't expect folks to do right by you, but hand them your money left and right with no strings attached. You can't expect folks to pass laws in your behalf without greasing their palms and buying them off.

Its just how world works. We see jews and now the chinese doing this all around the world. Either giving folks money to do as they say or taking money from folks to do as they say.

Most of the changes were done on a local level, which makes sense since police reform starts at a municipal level, but honestly I'm too busy right now to look it up for you.

That's your duty as a citizen :ufdup:

I’m sure stuff is going on behind the scenes. If you want change you have to put in work organizing and complaining to the right people. Even running for office with your friends. Social media helps generate awareness but it’s only a piece of the puzzle.

There have been some changes as others have said , however not nearly enough .

The problem we have is the need to constantly go thru the rinse n wash repeat of protesting before action .
If there was a damn near certain/mandatory imprisonment or firing a lot of fukk shyt police do would halt .

They may hate us but they still gotta feed their fam

Sadly nothing will change
the media and politicians used black folks once again...I saw it from the jump.

Nothing will change. Notice they never tell you how to change. No strategies, don't tell you to elect and support (financially) the police chief of a community. Don't tell you that the police unions are the reason they're allowed to go free. They just tell you to keep marching.

In, because I would love to hear of any meaningful change that came out of these protests. I became incredibly bitter about the protests at one point...I marched in May and by mid June I was disgusted by what the protests had become-- a cloutfest and a stage for nonblack people to roleplay being oppressed
They became about everything BUT the MAIN thing. Got co-opted in a way that was despicable. Subsets, regardless of gender/race/etc, made it about them
