What if they did a big old BLM BBQ and they cooked the food over the fires of businesses that they burned down?  

Pretty sure I saw a guy roasting hot dogs in Milwaukee. Why not?  

I am even cool with non disruptive protesting. The crowded streets and parking lot shit is old though. 

Honestly I am not the person to ask for solutions I just know what I don’t like. I don’t think anyone has the answers,  if they did this wouldn’t be an issue. 

To sit here and act like we have the answers is downright ignorant and cocky.

Was going to buy this album but after hearing this song I won’t be. People need to do just a little research and they’ll see that this is a racist hate group not interested in facts. They will not accept reality and they lash out when they should be looking in. Still got Love for Hoodoo tho Whoop Whoop! Rest of the album is bangin tho.  

Don’t let that detour you.  The album is good.  The guy is a good guy. The tension is high and everyone is on edge. 

what really cracks me up is, if you guys saw the video I proposed to a different artist that I wanted to work with, you would think hoodoo’s shit was “the right way” to do it in comparison. 

I wanted to have dudes murdering cops on film. I wanted to have dudes lynch this chick, hanging her with a bloodied american flag:

with video captured of cops bragging about people they shot as the intro.

Hoodoo’s video is dope, but completely TAME by comparison to what I wanted to do with someone else.

C’mon, y’all. Know better than to support police, 9 times out of 10.  

Maybe everyone dislikes the police so much because the media is focusing on the negative aspects of something with a good heart.

P.S. BLM = Racism & Violence

I don’t watch NEARLY enough television, or read enough internet stuff to even have heard about negative sides to the BLM movement. Sounds pretty obvious that … LIKE JUGGALOS …. and this is important, people… LIKE JUGGALOS, the media is focusing on the negative aspects of something with a good heart. Because it is better ratings, hypes up the blood better, continues diversions to bigger issues, etc.

C’mon, y’all. Know better than to support police, 9 times out of 10.  

I’m guessing the dispensary where you work has alarm systems and codes to get police response in case of criminal activity. It’s easy to spit on a system that is designed to have your back, and I bet that system beats sitting on the front porch all night with a shotgun to protect your store. At this point the cops seem a little like Fight Club: “We guard you while you sleep. Do not fuck with us.”

YouTube Video we guard you while you sleep   

I wonder if anyone watched the are cops racist video krunk posted. I wonder if I’m the only one that watched all the videos posted on both sides of the argument. I wonder if anyone besides nyro recognizes that there is actually a third side to this argument.

Its possible to care about police lives and black lives while recognizing there is a big problem going on within both groups, while simultaneously acknowledging the actual facts and statistics about black crime AND police brutality. 

By the way, since DOJ are white supremacists can somebody point me to some statistics that aren’t made by racist white people? Google is not my friend on this one.

Please go watch that are cops racist video a few posts up. Who knows, you might learn something.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have some white supremacy news to catch up on. Cuz, ya know, I’m a racist. Blows my god damn mind.

Literally nobody is saying that there are zero good cops.

It’s the SYSTEM that enables and protects the bad cops that is the issue. The judicial system is inherently racist because our nation is inherently racist and because we as a group of people regularly support that system.

There was a white male cop in Oregon who was fired for reporting racist acts in his precinct, especially his supervisors behavior. Rather than fixing the problem, they canned him.  He was one of the good cops.

There was a black woman who released a video talking about how she has worked in some of the toughest neighborhoods and has never had to kill anybody. She is a good cop. I’ve heard both that she was suspended for her actions and that she wasn’t.

There’s tons of cops who go to work every day and try to make the world a better place without killing POC.

But the system protects the guys who have questionable shootings. Like with Darren Wilson, you can say he isn’t a racist but by his own testimony (which you can read) he described Mike Brown as It. Not he. It. “It lunged forward”. Wilson also testified that he thought Mike Brown was possessed by a super natural demon who got stronger every time he shot him. Darren Wilson was also previously involved in a precinct that had so many civil rights violations that it was shut down. The lawyer persecuting Darren Wilson also lied to the jury about what the law is about police shootings. And the police changed their story several times about the sequence of events. 

This same system that protects the racist cops is the same one that disproportionately targets people of color. Even when there is evidence that people of color aren’t more likely to commit crimes, heavily POC communities are policed more.

It’s also true that the TRAINING police receive is racist. A woman in Florida discovered that white officers used black men’s mugshots for target practice. The department’s solution? “We will take them down when future applicants tour the facilities.”

The other day I read a news story about a guy who called the police because his wife said someone was trying to steal her car. Cops showed up and shot him. Why? The assumed he was The assailant because he was black and armed ( legally) when they arrived. No talking to him. No verification of his identification. Just shoot to kill.

The thing is, we can’t know who is a “Good Cop”. So yeah, people are distrustful of cops. Shit. I have family who work in law enforcement and I wouldn’t even trust them to be “good cops” because there is so much incentive for them to be “bad cops”.

And bad cops can be fantastic people 99% of the time. It just takes a moment for them to cross a line, and let the system protect them when they fuck up.
