This ain’t it bruh. Take yourself out the equation, what would you tell your son? ‘Son if you stopped by police run or fight’. Like stop
This is my problem: We gotta be able to walk and chew gun. The cops were excessive, they need to go to jail, they are ready to routinely execute a black man, our anger is justified, all that. But at the same time, SOMEBODY has to have the balls to say: fam, stop fukking running from police. Stop playing these games bruh. I feel like black folk, black MEN, are becoming scared to say that even in a black (or predominantly black) space like this one, for fear of coming off as pro-cop. If nowhere else, THIS is the place we supposed to be 100% candid. So fukk that, if folk can’t see the nouance in hating cops but always wanting brothas to stay alive and get home to their families, fukk em
We got a whole generation of folk who think if you met with police it’s automatically life and death ‘well they gon shoot me anyway I just might as well run’. No, ngga. There is a 99% chance you are going home (or jail). However they WILL gladly take a black man out if they think it will be a ‘justified’ kill. They wake up ready for that shyt. So don’t give them a reason
