Ferguson Revolutionary OBLITERATES Alex Jones Reporter

Absolutely, but its still a culture that's being singled out not a skin tone... if they act and dress that way, they fit the description. Pigment has little to do with it... I stress this, cause you are giving racist an easy out when you try to frame it as such.
The white kid that was gunned down by cops is a racist favorite right now, and if you look at his picture, he fits the description

I think the racists' hostility toward the white kid who was gunned down comes from two different places: 1) opportunism, in the sense that this kid's murder presents an opportunity for them to attack him and say, "Look, white people get killed too," in an effort to cover up their racism and defend the system; and 2) his cultural proximity to Blackness, given his adoption of "urban"/Hip-Hop styles, which makes it easier to rationalize his murder but also undermines the racial-cultural narrative they put forth regarding Black criminality, flaws in Black culture, etc. (because here you have a white person adopting the culture)

If white people invented Hip-Hop culture, it would probably still be maligned to some extent, but not like it is now. It'd probably be akin to punk rock or something. But given who invented Hip-Hop, discourse around it is racially-coded in all sorts of ways.

Maybe I'm wrong But I really do think that the hostility to the culture is rooted in racism, and even when it manifests against a non-Afrikan who identifies with the culture, there are still racial elements involved.

We want it to be race driven, so its easy to create and accept explanations that support that narrative. Objectivity is near impossible in situations like this.
My point is trying to pin it on skin gives racist easy outs with cases where the victim wasn't black.

We really shouldnt even be attacking the issue of racism like this IMHO, we should be pushing for mandatory body cams.

Even if looting and rioting works(), and they decide to indict, and convict Wilson... who cares? It will be another black life lost next year in a similar fashion.
Fixing every officer on the street with a body cam is the kind of change we should be pushing for, and we have the stage to do it right now.




Shameless plug: Rand Paul is rumored to be proposing this shortly

They only have an easy out if we are thinking about racism (a sophisticated system which often manifests itself in subtle, "sophisticated" ways) in unsophisticated ways. I don't think it is disputable that the discourse around Hip-Hop and "urban" culture is racially-coded, but it doesn't always manifest as a clear and neat "white vs. Black" scenario.

Nonetheless, I will agree that body cams are a good reform to push for, but that cannot be the end goal. Only a matter of time before a cop decides to turn it off and go back to killing

"My cam malfunctioned"
"The camera was knocked loose in the scuffle"
"I accidentally turned it off"

Nah its the urban or "rap music" look that they refer to as 'thuggish/thug'. Asians, whites and mexicans dressed accordingly will be referred to as thugs just as quick. A fact that will be quickly thrown out should you corner a racist using this term... followed by some nonsense about black people using the n word.
Its the coli tho, if its the new n*gger to the majority, than thats what it is.
Real thugs will benefit while white people have to find a new term Its w/e.

So you're saying they only call black people thugs when they dress like thugs?

 

[DEAD7]

So you're saying they only call black people thugs when they dress like thugs?

No, I'm saying they call anyone dressed a certain way a thug, and will cite instances where this was the case when cornered. Its a silly branding that any racist worth his salt will snake out of. We can do better IMHO...

The cops that killed the kid with the samurai sword in Utah both had body cams and microphones and not surprisingly neither one had them on.

I missed the part where the "revolutionary" obliterated him.

 

[jilla82]

Why do black folks like to lump all blacks in the same group?

Try this.....
Put on the typical hood gear and go out shopping, or just walk around...
...now put on some normal Brooks Brothers type casual wear.....
....and then put on a suit.

If you dont notice people treating you different...you are clueless.

People notice social cues first...we are all judged by our appearance....all judgements are not racist.

 

[intilectual recipricol]

fukk arguin shoulda just whooped his ass for c00nin

He should have assaulted another black man because for doing something he doesn't like?

 

[intilectual recipricol]

ISIS Urge Ferguson Rioters to 'Be Like Malcolm X'
BY DAMIEN SHARKOV 11/26/14 AT 8:45 AM

A propaganda image being circulated on social media accounts associated with ISIS. TWITTER

Filed Under: World, Ferguson, ISIS, Islamic State, Social Media
Online activists for Islamic State (ISIS) have been using social media coverage of riots in Ferguson, Missouri over the shooting of unarmed black teenager Mike Brown by a white Missouri police officer to promote their cause.

Using the hashtags related to the riots ISIS activists have been reaching out to residents of the predominantly black St. Louis suburb of Ferguson urging them to join the ISIS wave of Islamist violence.

Some of the most popular ISIS social media accounts have been sending messages using the Ferguson hashtag such as “Hey blacks, ISIS will save you” or “The islamic state deal with people according to their religion because this is only one can choose it [sic]”.

 

[JahFocus CS]

Fukk ISIS and their garbage opportunism.

The Right is gonna latch onto this ISIS stuff and try to use it to undermine the protests in Ferguson. I wouldn't be surprised if some of these ISIS social media accounts are psyops operations...

So I need to wear a brooks brothers casual wear or a suit to get respect

Listen, I'm older then you, probably been more place as well, and I'm telling you an idiot will always find something wrong with you, if you speak your mind, hold your head up, and have some "swag". The only people who aren't a threat are those who just look lame,weak, and scary.

Meanwhile a white guy with long hair and look dirty, can do what he wants, unless going through customs

You don't even see how gone you are

I don't care how how people think about me, as long as you don't force yourself onto me, take away my civil rights, or try to hurt me. You can think what you want, this is the U.S.A.

 

[newworldafro]

Jakari Jackson is that dude ......he's showing that level headed black people don't have to subscribe for the okie doke that is Democrat or Republican camp ....... get to know the man before you pass judgement.......

He's not perfect, I've heard a few instances, where he maybe should have said something with regards to race.. But I've also heard him shut some shiit down, when shiit was getting a little undignified. Besides, he is talking about WAY MORE than just "racial" issues......GMOs, Fukushima impact on West Coast, liberties being taken, etc go beyond race........ he's showing that you don't have to pick between two sides of a fuucked up coin. Overall though, he's on point... ......an at this point if yall still falling for the BS that is MSM .......

Al Sharpton on one station.... the Fruitopian on another channel ..... and then Bedwenches throughout these news networks.....but he's a sellout, cause his paycheck doesn't come from a huge corporation ....

I respect this dude.
