Allen Iverson: "All Lives Matter"

[Rekkapryde]

That's just it.... I'm sure these cats(well most) do know the difference...... I think due to experiences, they may feel that our internal issues are more pressing on the grander scale of things....

that's a fair argument but it doesn't have to be the only argument when there is CLEAR deflection about what "all lives matter" is being used as.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

This shyt got me so heated that I'm gonna pull a Chris Sale and cut up my Iverson throwback

Someone talk me out of it

I think people are confusing what I'm saying as the deflection tactic that white people or fox news cohorts like to throw out there to dismiss/marginalize or maybe even justify extreme police misconduct....

but if you look at it from the vantage point of a brother/sister that has to live and raise kids in some of these volatile areas, the most immediate threat will be someone on your block who looks like you...... and that's a huge problem as well and deserves the same type of national discourse that the all black live matters "movement" is getting amongst our folks

Iverson got some sense. Salute

thing is there ARE lots of people who are fighting against black on black crime. It just doesn't generate headlines and ratings.

See dats dat prollem. We talk about it all da time amongst our own community. Through our youth programs, school functions, church() functions, outreach programs, Big Bro, etc.

What purpose does it serve black folks to sit down and air out our dirty laundry or discuss OUR issues on a public platform for da world to see and give thier outside input on?? I don't undastand dat shyt. fukk we need dey approval for?

Da reason why we puttin dis cop shyt on blast is because dey are sposed to serve & protect da public. Not harass, beat, and kill wit no repercussions. When a murder happens in our or any regla citizen's community 8/10 dat mufukka(s) is caught, tried, and punished for their crime. Dere is no need to plead and protest for justice on dese kinds of national scales.

Dis institutionalized racism & blue wall of silence bullshyt is on a whoooole notha level, mah dood.

Never said there weren't... and as I stated earlier, its almost impossible for those activities to get the same level of attention...

Understood..... but toddlers, pre teens, and kids barely old enough to drive aren't getting popped by 12... yeah, the perp is apprehended, but those babies still dead and gone and the shyt could've been completely avoided 9 times out of 10....

and I never said that there wasn't a discourse between us about black violence... I said that it was no where near the magnitude that black lives matter movement is getting...

 

[Basaglia]

This is a false equivalence i dont know why people cant see this they are both important issues but totally different issues.

Hey, man...I get it. I just understand where they're coming from. AI has no time to be learning political rhetoric. All he know is his boys got killed over some bullshyt and he ain't see all this outcry. It's very simple to him.

- But you can't control err body's thoughts n actions wit some kinda magical remote control. Humans are gonna human.

Like I said in a previous post...you mix poverty, drugs, & less education...shyt is gonna go down regardless of race. It could be a mix of mufukkas and you add those components it'll be da same taste just in a different packaging.

Dat black on black crime theory is complete horse shyt.


- Of course it isn't of da same TELEVISED magnitude. See da post you last quoted of mine for da reasons why.

I'm not eam surprised by dese black celebrities & athletes anymore.

I'm more surprised when dem mufukkas ain't dry c00nin.

 

[Jaylen Tatum]

dude literally said "I know all black lives matter, all lives matter" and it's got some folks in here like ...

"OMFG HE DIDN'T JUST LEAVE IT AT ALL BLACK LIVES!"

it's not that serious man, he wasn't taking anything from the plights of others. Quit fishing for daps and reps and go make a difference in someones life, even if it's only family...
