straw man argument.
BLM only gets so much attention because they're addressing police brutality and there's tons of police supporters who are on the defensive....so it's going to be controversy....
they're trying to detract BLM from their by bringing up black on black violence,... when there's tons of groups who address community togetherness, and attack violence in black communities.... http://cureviolence.org/ is a really good one...
the reality of it is...outside the black community no one gives a ? about black on black violence......so the only people who are screaming "but what about black on black violence" are showing their ignorance because they know nothing about the organizations that actually address it.....
white and black people are exposing themselves as those who give no ? about the black community because they're trying to derail BLM from making a difference and are completely ignorant to the organizations that have already been addressing the issue they're trying fake interest in....
if you really feel black on black violence is as big or a bigger issue than police brutality, and it's not being addressed as much, then become an advocate towards black on black violence....get involved...there are plenty of organizations that you can rock with and support instead of trying to shame an organization that has done a good job in addressing the issue they are going after....
you don't flip out on your dentist for not fixing your bad back.....
Better than your , "can we all just get along" rendition. -
That ? is a ? . How many videos he got up about cops shooting unarmed black men and women? How many videos he got protesting the act of predatory lending to blacks? How many videos does he have up about the school to prison pipeline system? Howany videos does he have up about the police brutality in the state where he made all his ? money? NONE!! Any black man that only addresses one part of the problem and not the entire ? problem is a boot licking ? . ? ray lewis.

[/quote] Yeah we can speak on it but what are we going to do about it???? we knew about this ? for well over a decade already and also no one forces people to do drugs and no one makes people shoot people.
"RAISING the minimum wage is a horrible idea for the whole nation. I don't give a ? about how a politician feels about me all I care about is how I can use the system to better my situation... I mean you really thing the Clintons, or sanders give a ? about you.
When I tell you we need to return to traditional values you don't listen instead you disrespect me for being an immigrant.[/quote]
ZZombie makes the most sense to me out of what I see here. When you get down to it, politics is pretty irrelevant; it's up to the individual. Even bad parenting has a statute of limitations on how long you can blame them for your situation. Disadvantaged? Using traditional values, illiterate, illegal Mexicans prosper enough to send money back to Mexico. -

Capitalism is just a tool to advance humanity whether who uses that vehicle. This is why I don't have issues with Socialism, Capitalism, and Communism. It's up to the people to use these vehicles, if people want to act a fool they will act a fool regardless.
Socialism and Communison are an inherently FLAWED system that bases it's premise off of humans doing not only the best for themselves but each other. Capitalism is at least honest about its complete lack of indifference in most cases
It's been said that capitalism is the exploitation of man by man, while communism is the opposite. I like to think of it this way: with communism, they pretend to pay us, and we pretend to work. With capitalism, we work just hard enough to not get fired, and they pay us just enough so we don't find work elsewhere.

Agreed. A good recent book on the subject is How The West Won. Incidentally, I've been trying to find the lyrics to a song in Chi-Raq, using quotes around the one line I could remember: "but it wasn't by a racist or a cop". I drew a blank. Can anyone help me out here? -
This thread was a mess.
