You are straight up retarded
Kenny Stills does a lot of good work in the community but he needs to cut the kneeling bullshit.
Why does that even matter. If they have a beef with police, go kneel in front of the police station. Not on national tv, during the Anthem, while our flag is blowing in the wind , Americans ( most ) are singing along and heroes, who have volunteered to give their lives for this country are flying over the stadium in jets. Fuck those scum bags.
I think the reason older blacks are on board is because back in the 70's and 80's when the mob/organized crime started letting drugs into big cities, a lot of cops found themselves in situations that no previous generations of cops had ever encountered. People on drugs that had unimaginable side effects and high stress situations that were completely foreign at the time. And since there was a huge white fight to the suburbs in the 70's and 80's, a lot of this population was minorities. So even though statistics on this stuff is hazy, I do think a lot of blacks probably got blasted prematurely back then given the situation/dynamic in those places at the time. Nobody had dealt with a guy spazzing out on crack before. Then this distrust just kinda carried over for generations, people made $ off of it and kept it in the news/conflated it with other issues.
Nowadays you gotta be pretty obnoxiously stupid/unlucky to get lit up though. Especially with body cameras.
Lmfaoooo. He said listen to the police is the solution bahahahahahha. So damn clueless
That would be a stupid reason to be on board. But they have a reason to hold a grudge. Coke(a rich mans drug) had less ramifications than a crack smoker(typically a black man). Completely foreign at the time... You are aware that they are the same exact drug right? Only difference is one is smoked after being cooked. So as long as it was nose candy it was a lesser sentence. Great way to create modern day slaverly. Genius.
That time in the 70’s and 80’s wasn’t a war on drugs...it was a war on black people. NYC was the Mecca for dirty cops back in the 70’s-80’s. They could do whatever the fuck they wanted. If you haven’t seen “The Seven Five” then watch it. Best police documentary ever made. Great doc. The most corrupt time in American drug history probably.
So if you are implying that black people have a reason to be salty....you’re right.
