Denzel is 61/62 years old and comes from a different view of life

it’s his opinion and he has always been a conservative liberal type

Denzel said some shyt about Black ppl needing to be accountable for the community and you can't blame that on racism

I think you can blame that on racism because of how we got to this point but I agree with individual Black ppl needing to hold themselves accountable

And parents and bad influences in hip hop as a whole
I give ppl a pass based on who they are and how they mean it
However, this police comment is a c00n bridge too far with all the shyt going on

Old or not its unacceptable (to me)

There's no other way to interpret it

Cops start off at $70k here breh :russell:
Very few cops are shot/killed in the line of duty. You will literally hear every single story of a cop being shot. Across the whole nation. Some podunk small town cop in S Dakota getting shot will make the news in LA, DC, NY and Chicago. More cops are killed by friendly fire or self inflicted wounds every year than cops shot in the line of duty. More cops are killed by negligence than cops killed on duty very year. Like the two dumbass cops here in Chicago that got hit by a train running after a guy who was already caught by the time they got hit. More cashiers are killed on the job than cops are. You wanna be a cop sympathizer, go ahead. Your choice. But you ain’t gonna win this with me chief.

And to answer your question...the same thing I been doing nikka. Letting my big Sig 10milly and Baby Eagle handle it. Cause we all ain’t a sheep to a wolf like you may be. I ain’t never called the cops in my life.
$70K? Nice. But I'm sure you understand that 70K is not the norm for a cops starting salary. I mean c'mon. All you need is a h.s. diploma. And my point was being a cop ain't the safest job in the world But if you think you can handle everything with your guns than more power to you my friend. I been working in the criminal justice system for over 20 years as an attorney so I have seen A LOT of dudes with your mindset. If you think you can always get to your guns...ok. Of course you realize there are a lot of crimes that happen when you're not even around right? I wonder if you got kids. You know they can be food too right? You wouldn't even believe what some of these people will do. I wanna ask, you realize that is a 9 year old girl and not a woman right? And the ONLY thing these people fear is the cops.

I understand the frustration. 400 years of oppression, some of it at the hands of cops. But the way our society is built, we need them. Sorry. I'm just about locking the ones up who are bad. Put them with the rest of the criminals. Not getting rid of all of them. Reforms are needed no question about it. But I'm not with that Wild Wild West kind of living. I guess you Superman with the guns.

I ain’t gotta be Superman because you thought I’m a mark nikka. There ain’t nothing in any scenario you just tried to present that some cop was gonna do to keep from happening. You can keep the sarcasm and keep slurping cops. You’ll learn one day. You trying to press me over being a capable and armed black man and saying “if you think you can handle everything with your gun” as if these racist ass cac and c00n cops you are heralding are capable of doing anything without there’s. Stop it. You love cops. You think they’re heroes. You one of those people that consign to the “few bad apples” sentiment that has brought us to this day of corruption and coverups. You say you’re an attorney and work in criminal justice. That means you work for the state as prosecution. Working hand and hand with these racist pigs. Just as much a part of the problem as they are. Because a defense attorney would say he was just that, a defense attorney. And they damn sure wouldn’t subscribe to the “cops are heroes” notion. I know because my sister is an attorney. I know because my best friends wife is a defense attorney. I know cause my shorty a 3L. Nine of them aspired to be a prosecutor and none of them refer to cops as heroes. You can keep the derisive remarks.

Ok lets be serious.... Do you think it's wise for a black man to go on tv and say "yea fukk all cops" Or "things would be safer without police"


Politics as usual :yeshrug:



Denzel ain't dumb
Actual quote of question:

Cac: “You’re playing a cop with a checkered past and it feels really interesting to be playing a law enforcement role right now given the recent events (George Floyd killing, police brutality and corruption) and the climate right now. How much thought do you put into this kind of role and how law enforcement is represented?”


(Paraphrased)

Denzel: I saw this one cop not kill 2 innocent grandkids trying to calm their confused grandfather who had a gun down and thought “This cop could’ve killed everyone if he wanted to. So I don’t care for people who put cops down. And soldiers. Soldiers too.”


That’s not even remotely an answer to the question. And not even acknowledging the issue either. He juelzed himself into saying something stupid because the answer he gave wasn’t even the question. This wasn’t a “trick” question or even a “loaded” one. This shyt wasn’t “wise” to say either. Just an old nikka showing how he REALLY feel cause his bag is secured. It’s only gonna get worse from here. Just like Cosby started getting out of pocket. :skip:

I think Denzel is smart enough to stfu

This was just a momentary lapse

But yeah I bet he really feels that way

Weird because he said he was on the wrong path coming up

And he rocked with Jay Z before he became gentrified
