Tyrese breaks up fight between Lyfe Jennings & David Banner @ Atlanta Town Hall meeting (VIDEO CLIP)

[New Username]

I'm with Banner on this one. Revolution has always been the thing that sparked real change. This damn country was built on revolution, and what he says is true. Only two things they respect, loss of finance and loss of lives.

But who's going to really fight

is he truly fighting for the cause or is he doing the same as everyone which is speaking about it

 

[spliz]

We need some kind of organized movement to stop these cops from gunning us down. Prevent these racist crackas from tearing down whatever we do try to build up like they have a history of doing. shyt I'm not opposed to having some sort of Black Panther like organization or movement to make sure the streets are safe from not only violence but police brutality etc etc. So yes. Boycotting their money flow is cool. Building our businesses and communities is cool. Investing in our own is cool. But we need a system that prevents that shyt from being tore down. Part of that is showing we bout that action if need be. So as far as policing our own communities. I completely agree with David.

Endorse a rapper who says go to war with the police when he has sold drugs, womanize women and promotes murder of black men and anarchy brehs

You're a true fuk boy as if brothas can't change. Bringing up his past to minimize his progressions is some true white supremacist shyt. Your dumb ass been c00ning hard

 

[PoPimp84]

David Banner made like a pimp, how can I take him seriously as a community leader or spokesman?

Here's some perspective, Malcolm X used to be Detroit Red. Im in no way comparing Banner to Malcolm, Im just pointing out when people truly grow and learn they put aside their old ways.

Edit: i see some other posters already used the comparison

I'd say the message is more about how we respond to things more than how we take the fight to them. Like I posted earlier, that's suicide taking the war to them. But shyt like mourning Police officers who apart of the same establishment that's knocking us down daily. fukk that, we could be spending our time doing something else.

 

[wizworld]

this only becomes offensive because of how some blacks folks think it looks in front of white folks

town hall meetings get ugly sometimes, happens in every community, should research some of the conflict and fights that took place in establishing this nation.

really wouldnt take it this deep. this a trying time, emotions and reactions are on high, we are under attack and frustrated. tell them brothers to hug it out and move on.

Thank you. If nyggas did some research and stopped worrying about an outsiders perception then this wouldn't be an issue.
Things are getting to the point where some of the solutions being offered are a bit edgy, naturally people SHOULD be fired up.

U forgot the

I'm new to this lol

If cops were so "good" for people

Why you don't see them in Hasidic Jews neighborhoods

They have their own police and police themselves

You don't see stations in your China towns

The police aren't here to serve and protect you

Think in your lifetime how many times you've actually called the cops

Most go their whole lives and do just fine

Not saying you don't need assistance from time to time/ but these need to be brothers and sisters policing our very own communities upon our very own native land!

Alert me when y'all ready to march on these pigs stations for a barbecue

 

[THEREALBRAND]

I personally don't see anything wrong with intimidation if done right.

Now we ain't got to go up to a squad car and go "die mufukka die", but clearly on some uniformed shyt together bearing arms where its legally allowed looking like this

sends a clear message "don't fukk with us".

There's a huge difference between organizing a well-planned armed resistance and telling a bunch of young, angry, and impressionable people to pick up arms against the police without giving them any type of game plan.

What Banner did was irresponsible.

 

[King Sun]

Apparently David is Telling people to retaliate with guns and that he will bail them out. Is David going to do that prison sentence for you though? And take care of your families when they blow your head off?

That's the problem here too many of these YouTube activists will tell you to intimidate and take arms but will they do the same? Will david banner move back to his community in Mississippi and do what he suggests?

This where the media propaganda comes in and its working. You got edited footage of where it seems Banner telling people to take guns to law enforcement, when that's not even all of the content covered at the town hall meeting. It's good to cover all potential options we could take, and white media specifically chose to zoom in on this one. Banner addressed it this morning.

Mannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn....
If we're being really real about it, we already have a lot of "soldiers" on deck. We have a lot of disenfranchised men in our communities, moving with very little direction and no one to take their frustrations out on but people that look like them. If these men were truly of the mindset that the police are their number one enemy, we would see some change, real quick.

I say that to say, we wouldn't even need to worry about someone like David Banner being on the frontlines.

 

[ashtray]

why the fukk they have rappers, actors and comedians as panelists at a got damn town hall meeting


where are the black lawyers, police and politicians ?!??!?!? People who will actually make a change in policy

See my response. We don't need him as a soldier, we have soldiers already. If we have enough soldiers to have gang rivalries in most of our poorer neighborhoods, we have enough soldiers to fight the police.

Exceptional posting & well put

I notice it's a lot of smart brothas on here. @cook @Brooklynzson should help put together groups specifically for posters in major city's. We can do weekends where we give back to kids ...outreach etc. shyt would be dope
