Ricky Smiley says “get the hoodlums out” of our community

[philmonroe]

You can go to any country in the world and find impoverished people who commit crimes

Every minority group in majority white countries who are poor have the same issues

It's not coddling to admit that it's a societal issue that causes poor people to commit more crime

Its coddling how you mentioned it fam. I never said nothing about poor people don't commit more crimes but y'all are also coddling them too. Its also kinda bullshyt coddling talk when the vast majority in these areas aren't committing crimes even though they themselves are in similar situations.

Some people just want to throw their hands up and say "its white supremacy" as if throwing a check at the problem is gonna magically solve everything. Yea it is white supremacy and it is the roots of the problem. Unfortunately we cant just succumb to it and make excuse after excuse about it and attack the victims of violence like they some c00ns. If your daughter laying up in the hospital and you angry, how about if a nikka just say, hey sorry its white supremacy, wait till we get this check tho.

I was thinking about this as well. I never once heard "this damn white supremacy need to stop" at any of the funerals or wakes I've attended for gun violence victims. When my boy Fredo got his shyt sprayed over a broad he was smashing, I didn't think "wait til we get these reparations one day" People have to stop making excuses for this fukk shyt. We will not see white supremacy end in our lifetimes. White people are the damn majority in this country and they insecure as it is about hispanics threatening that. I hope that when I have a black son, he'll be loved and respected by other black kids in his community.

Stephen was made that way by his circumstances

The same with countless black children

no he wasn't he made a choice

lots of decent people live in the hood, and they gotta worry about bullshyt constantly

The reason my the black community is in shambles, because all the well to do blacks had to move away because the environment wasn't safe, so they could've been creating business employing people in the neighborhood, etc but they had to move away because it wasn't safe for their family

if black men can't keep their own communities safe then you are admitting your a weak and pitiful

first already of business is getting weak nikkaz like you out the way and then dealing with the knuckle heads

all you got his excuses, because you don't want to acknowledge it will take effort to get the situation under control

because you're not a hard work, you run from things that are challenging, you don't desire a change, and are just defeated person, that's who you are

You act like nikkas killing nikkas for being black.
Most blacks who are in that life take up dangerous professions and if they handle business wrong they end up dead. Or you have somebody in a crew get killed now it's all out beef.

The point I'm making with people in environments with no structure things tend to spin out of control

Cause you say majority of folks in that position not doing it but it really is a quick life changing decision that happens most of the time.

I'm saying we need to give people something real and tangible, so they don't even get started down a path that leads to gun violence in the first place

shyt having a simple family is a good deterrent and that is what keeps most poor people from going down the path

But we need a better solution than just killing nikkas who was never given a chance

Some how do you determine who is a knucklehead or a weak nikka?

What are the criteria in how we go about weeding out the bad elements?

How do you plan to fulfill the familial roles they provided after you killed them? You killing they families too?

How do you know richer blacks would then move to poor areas and invest?

Also are we allowed to allow them brehs to redeem themselves or are we gonna just kill them?

Also how is your murder of somebody you think is a knucklehead any better? Black on black crime gotta be wrong across the board or you're a hypocrite

 

[Rollie Forbes]

all facts

white supremacy doesn't stop you from having decency esp for your own people

Black people who are attacking the system can't do it while they are under siege at home. Get on code or get the fukk out.

This.

So they can just defeat us completely with these social issues?

We have no way to resist those influence and still be hardworking, educated, and helpful to the community?

Cause I had ever societal factor against me that my brother and everyone from around the way had against them. Bro did 20 in the box. Lots didn't live.

With the exact same starting position I graduated college and have been working since I was 14 years old.

So what's the difference?

Choice, good Brother. I wasn't forced to sell crack or tote a gun. I was PRESSURED to. Heavily. And I CHOSE not to

breh why are you asking the question "I did it, why can't you?" instead of "why were all these obstacles in our way?"

"Bro did 20 in the box. Lots didn't live."

now the exceptions have to shoulder so much weight just to get the community functional? most of which are just happy to have made it out and don't go back to try to uplift the youth there.

You can't get them out without first snitching..

I don't have to determine you can see in the environment

strong men don't live in such environments

the streets are for cowards, weak nikkaz, arabs run the hood and other foreigners nikkaz just occupying space

You don't want to acknowledge, because you're a natural born coward, you don't want to acknowledge the reality because you will either have to do something about it or not, you don't want to do anything about because that will require effort which is what you are scared of, so you take the coward away out and refuse to acknowledge

don't talk to me, white supremacy already beat you, you are a white supremacist, you said out your own mouth white supremacy is reason for why nikkaz do everything they do and why they in their condition and they can't do anything about

this is what you believe, you are a white supremacist, like I said you are defeated broken shell of a man

coward

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

Being broke is not an excuse to kill a child. But it certainly does explain the social pathology

I am somewhat convinced that either most of y’all aren’t American, or you never grew up around nikkas.... shyt is blatant looking some of these posts...

My best friend in high school got shot over a bytch on Memorial Drive. The nikka that shot him lived in Southland (which are 5 bedroom all brick homes) and my boy lived in Hidden Hills (which was nice back then). Let these dudes cook. Most of them nikka nerds that dont do shyt but live vicariously through rappers and Tariq.

Y'all gonna be talking about this shyt til y'all old and grey. The shyt is a lost cause.

There isn't a post I've posted good sir that said any bullshyt like folks killing folks just for being black. Let's keep the exaggerations out of it. I don't disagree with giving people real and tangible but at the same time I'm also not trying to hear about this quick life changing decision when that's always the case. These dudes aren't pulling no John a type stuff most times and that's how y'all try to frame it. If dudes were stealing from a grocery store or something like that I'd understand. I'd still say they need to be punished but most are just doing things that lead to this violence long after the family excuse is honestly applicable. I say you're coddling because mentioning those actually robbing for life sustaining stuff isn't the majority of these situations that we end up talking about my man. We are talking about gun violence that mainly is the results of drugs and gangs and that is something just seeing how most in your neighborhood can avoid is something these others could avoid also is my take on the issue.

I also never said kill them but if they have to get arrested so be it. I just can never use WS as the end the talk excuse because when you do that dudes will be on some mess for generations after we are all gone and that's not helpful IMO if we all want the same end goal of change. Maybe you disagree but that's cool but I think we have the same end goal.

I’ve been shot. The nikka that shot me was shot, I mean I get it. However It’s hard when u in that moment to think all scholarly and break down socioeconomic systemic racism when u staring down a barrel or your loved one is injured. I mean when girls/daughters are shot or killed I immediately place my self in the shoes of a parent. I only have daughters. I get where Ricky is coming from. I know the issue behind the issue quite well, but you not going to think Cornel West or Dr Nelly Fuller when the shyt hits the fan. It’s easier to do that as a spectator. It’s easier to rationalize it when it’s people who are living that life and know the consequences. Civilians getting shot are a bitter pill to swallow

I understand what you mean.

But she didn't get shot today. Smiley sat around and thought, and then went online, y'know? This was not in that moment. I understand doing shyt in the moment. I can be hotheaded too - but the rhetoric he's espousing shouldn't be the norm.

Y'all gonna be talking about this shyt til y'all old and grey. The shyt is a lost cause.

I won't disagree because I watched superfly or one of those other 70's movies and dudes was on the same talking points then we talking about now.
