A grown man wearing Jordans has no respect for his financial well being and he lives for the approval of others. A weak man who doesn't love himself...

:whoa:

Nothing is wrong with buying jordans. It's about material worship and the placement of priorities.

Black women killed by boyfriends with guns a rising national trend


Black women killed by boyfriends with guns a rising national trend

The tragedy of domestic violence against woman in the Black community is on a steady rise. More Black women are killed by their boyfriends than any other demographic in the America. In these cases, Black women are increasingly the victims of gun violence.

These stories have been often overlooked in the national media except when it affects celebrities. Take for example the best friend of boxer Floyd Mayweather. Mayweather was chatting by FaceTime to his best friend Earl Hayes. Hayes was having a violent confrontation with his wife Stephanie Moseley, well-known backup dancer and star on VH1’s “Hit the Floor.” Hayes accused Moseley of having an affair with Trey Songz. Mayweather was shocked to hear multiple gunshots ring out as Hayes gunned down Mosley, who was taking a bath. For the next few minutes, a horrified Mayweather pleaded with a despondent Hayes to calm down and not hurt himself. When LAPD arrived at the home, Hayes turned the gun on himself in a tragic murder-suicide.

According to a study by the Violence Policy Center to be released in October 2015 as part of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, nine out of 10 black women murdered by men are killed by someone they know, most often with a gun. The study states, “In 2013, 453 black females were murdered by males in single victim/single offender incidents, at a rate of 2.36 per 100,000. In comparison, the rate for white women murdered by males for that year was 0.95 per 100,000. Nationwide, across all races, 1,615 females were murdered by males in single victim/single offender incidents in 2013, at a rate of 1.09 per 100,000.”

It has been estimated that 59 percent of black female victims were shot and killed with guns, a sobering statistic. The study goes on to state:

“-Compared to a black male, a black female is far more likely to be killed by her spouse, an intimate acquaintance, or a family member than by a stranger. Where the relationship could be determined, 92 percent of black females killed by males in single victim/single offender incidents knew their killers. Of the black victims who knew their offenders, 56 percent were wives, common-law wives, ex-wives, or girlfriends of the offenders.

-The vast majority of homicides of black females murdered by males were not related to any other felony crime. Most often, black females were killed by males in the course of an argument. In cases where the circumstances could be identified, 84 percent were not related to the commission of any other felony.”

The study then goes on to list the top 10 states with the highest rates of females murdered by males in single victim/single offender incidents in 2013:

  1. South Carolina 2.32 per 100,000
  2. Alaska 2.29 per 100,000
  3. New Mexico 2.00 per 100,000
  4. Louisiana 1.99 per 100,000
  5. Nevada 1.95 per 100,000
  6. (tie) Tennessee 1.65 per 100,000
  7. (tie) Oklahoma 1.65 per 100,000
  8. Vermont 1.58 per 100,000
  9. Maine 1.47 per 100,000
  10. Michigan 1.45 per 100,000

A lot actually, my therapist told me to watch it before our next session and I did. I see a bit of myself in each and every single one of those characters. I guess you weren't touched by it because you're a dude.

Bold sounds like we don't have the opportunity to gold dig for whatever reason as often as other groups so therefore we aren't materialistic. Stop it women are conditioned to want the best provider but they ain't materialistic and or know what that material usually represents? Disingenuous at its finest.

I know breh, a group of women who don't even have a history of men talking care of them are going to be the least materialistic women of all? :mjlol:

Cmon breh.

How many sisters you know taking care of dudes? Even when they marry out the majority make more than the men they marry.

They're the only group who literally doesn't have the benefit of treated as women.

Breh I live around white women that used to sell ass now driving a mini van with kids in the back at 2 pm breh.

I've heard people made these bad attitude claims about black women working at fast food restaurants/customer service industry but i haven't experienced it. Even in hood joints black women never gave me attitude. They just don't go out their way to be super friendly and bubbly like these fake ass white chicks and i think people are mistaking that nonchalant personality as having a bad attitude.
yea i'm very nonchalant at wrk and people think i'm mad or sum is wrong

Not hating but it's a issue of leadership nor lack thereof. Really has no sense in the conversation women lead the community men fight for attention. White boys walk around in a t-shirt with a finer black chick than we get in a 3 piece suit.

I don't think the author hates black women. Plus, there's no evidence in that direction. If he hates black women, either his tweets, artwork or something else should provide some indication. Looking at his tweets and work, at the very least he doesn't dislike black women:

You're wasting your time.
This would be considered social commentary and a discussion we need to have.

Introspection and cliched, "social commentary" only works one way in the black community.
This is what happens when women raise boys who tell them what they want to hear as opposed to men who tell them what they need to hear.
