Cincinnati riots and violence
 

What do you guys think about this ?? Sure, the police killed an unarmed black man, BUT the thing is, isn't it his fault for RUNNING from the police ??? He had a few warrants out on him and he ran. ANY time that you run from a cop, you risk the chance of getting shot, especially if you have warrants against you. I'm sure that the cop didn't just shoot the guy for the hell of it, I'm sure that most cops use judgement in cases like this, I could be wrong there though, he he. If he would've just surrendered and let the cop take him and pay the penalties for the crimes that HE commited, he'd still be alive today. The guy was a CRIMINAL.

Now I don't have anything against black people, but when I hear that they're out there rioting and in one instance, they pulled a INNOCENT WHITE woman from her car to beat on her, that's just total fucking BULLSHIT !!! What happend is NONE of these asshole's business. What good is that gonna do trashing your city and hurting others ?? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING !!!

Then blacks wonder why some white people hate them so much. When was the last time that you seen a white riot ???

ALSO, blacks think that they have it so rough around here. Talk about disgrimination. What about the black colleges that are throughout the US or the black scholorships ?? Have you ever seen a WHITE college or a white scholorship fund ??? HELL NO !!! Then on tv you see award shows for black people. The thing is that you don't hear any of us white people argue, except for now, he he, but if you had a white people award show, watch out, there'd be more riots over that I'm sure.

Shit like this pisses me off !!!

Shooting people for running away ! That's fucked up big time.

I don't agree with the high level of crime in the black communities but lets face it they are trapped in a vicious circle whose rules were laid down by white folk.

And no, i am not black.

jaYMan and we live close by there. The news reports were saying the cop said hold it hands up and all and he reached down quickly. In the dark and the cop not right by him? Most would have done the same thing.

There have been a couple other blacks shot lately (months apart?)I *know* that part of town. Lived in Cincy for a few years. Its rough for sure. Now a cop has been shot the soldiers are on standby, curfew from 8pm-6am for the WHOLE city.

But to trash someones property is ludicrous. Order is out to arrest for felonious rioting or some such too. 20 years in prison!

The hubby wants to know when the red college fund starts?? Oh well he's been there already. They need to quell that kind of bull no matter the color. http://www.channelcincinnati.com for more with real clips Ugh. Glad they were rubber bullets and bean bags! Thx to jaY for the link!

Slick, You're post is the most ignorant, assinine thing I have ever read in my life.


I am way to pissed to respond at this time. I shall cool off. And try to respond in an intelligent way instead of just telling you what a sheltered, uneducated in the ways of the world/streets, no real life experience, biased, racist retard you just made yourself out to be.

And as a mother of a black child and the ex-wife of a black man and a friend and in-law to many black americans, you can damn well bet, I'm going to do my best to kick some knoweledge your way, cuz you are in desperate need of some.

Too Be Continued....

P.S. it never ceases to amaze me how white people think of blacks in the inner city or other wise. They for the most part don't have a clue.

How about this one, real quick, Slick. An officer never has the legal right to shoot anyone that is running from them unless they KNOW they have a gun and/or they are evading a violent felony arrest. That is just one of the many things I shall be enlightening your priveleged white ass about as soon as I've calmed down. http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/mad.gif

Sorry GFYers, I know I promised to get off my soapbox, but, this is too big and too close to my heart. I will at least try to clam down before I post.

For those sick of my rantings, please excuse this one. This is important shit to me.

Woaaaaaahhh, it looks like a can of worms has been opened up here, he he.

First off Gemini, thanks for the info on that. Like I said, I knew that there was some sort of story behind it because cops just don't shoot people for no reason at all. If he's told to stop and put his hands up and he doesn't, what does the guy think the cop is gonna do ???? Then if he reaches down, that's just plain old STUPID, talk about asking to get shot.

NOW, Onto aprilkorova's comments. What the fuck is up with that ??? I can see why 12Clicks argues with you all the time, he's a smart man. I'm not one to pick on anyone, I'm one of the nicest people that you can know, but when someone pisses me off, whatch out !!

Don't come on here blasting me saying that I don't know anything and calling my post ignorant.

You say that your an ex-wife of a black man. Well, where is he now ??? He's certainly not with you now is he ??

Everyone blames the white people for the way that blacks are. People use whites as scapegoats for the black people that don't do anything with their lives. There's MANY successful black people that actually do something with their lives.

Are we supposed to feel sorry for someone that's a CRIMINAL that runs from the police and gets killed ??? If it was a white guy running from a black cop and he was killed, I can assure you that you'd never see any white riots going on.

That goes to your point. You say that a cop never has the right to shoot anyone that's running. If a cop feels like he or any other lives are in danger, then he has the right. If Gemini's post is accurate, which I'm sure that it is, then the cop told him to put his hands up and he didn't, he reached down instead, what would you do if you were a cop ??? Maybe you should read the news because this guy had a few warrants out for his arrest, it wasn't just a senseless chase.

I'm supposed to feel sorry for someone like that ??? FUCK NO !!!

[This message has been edited by Slick (edited 04-12-2001).]

ALSO, I had to add this in. Thanks again Gemini or I should say Jayman for the link to the tv channel. Here's the stats of injuries -

25 people taken to local hospitals.
2 remained hospitalized
40 others treated at the scene.

Do you think that it's fair to those 67 acts of violence, MOST LIKELY on white people ??? I'm sure that you're gonna tell me that those are ok though because one black person was killed.

When was the last time that a white riot happend and a bunch of black people were injured ???? I can't recall. I can recall MANY black riots in which this happend.

That shows how VIOLENT black people are.

Don't get me wrong, I'm definately not a racists, we're just on one of those tough topics, he he he.

If black people would act more civilized, then discussions like this wouldn't have to be brought up. They always look for a reason to hurt white people or loot.

[This message has been edited by Slick (edited 04-12-2001).]

I sat and watched 20 mins of tape live tonight slick while I half looked at that link. It was fearsome.

And NO April, YOU read. Most of the ones arrested came from OUTside that area...suburbs! And imagine 3 square blocks of businesses totally trashed! Is THAT how ANY race should act to stop a problem?

We live in a 60% black, 40% white and ONE indian that we know of. He ran off a punk kid gang inside of 6 months that the cops tried to stop for two years, NO gun in his hand either. http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/smile.gif

I lived 3 miles from that are for almost 4 years. ALL night the sirens ran and even the black police hated to have to work there.

That 20 mins was on tv and the police officers in all cases were correct in their trained actions. There is NO reason for ANY race to gather to over a 1000 (and more they refused to stand and call off their assigned numbers) to TOTALLY destroy others lifelong work!!

Wanted ans supposedly behaving hands up drops his hand on a dark street to his side (No matter the race) the officer SHOULD shoot! Not like he wasn't told and warned eh? Just call that a foolish move he can't repeat!

Gemini, thanks for agreeing with me in this subject. Like you say 3 square blocks of businesses destroyed.

What about all of those businesses that are run buy honest people trying to make a buck. Do they deserve to lose everything that they've built up because of a black man being shot. April, how would you like to have owned one of those businesses that were looted ??? They don't care about ANYTHING, I'm sure that more lives were affected from the rioting than from the shooting itself.

Then there's the police officer that was almost killed, but was saved by his belt buckle, if he got killed by a black man, would that mean that I could go running through town looting all of the businesses and beating on any black people that I see ???

Read your history and while you are at it read some of the UK's and Europes too.
Like I said earlier, its a vicious circle fuelled by ignorant people.

Doing an awful lot of editing, ain't ya Slick?

"The blacks wonder why some white people hate them so much"?

Sounds pretty hateful to me.

Warphead, I guess that you could say that I HATE the black people that beat on INNOCENT white people because of a black criminal was killed is factual.

How would any of you like to be driving through Cincinnati and having a bunch of black people pull you out of your car and beat the shit outta you ??? Would you like that ?? Or how about a loved one ??

I'm sure that not even 1% of the people rioting even know the person that got killed. Do they think that by doing this shit is gonna help the relationship between whites and blacks. Stuff like this REALLY disgusts me, like I say, I have no bad feelings towards blacks, but shit like this does bring out hateful feelings towards the ones that are doing wrong.

I am not discussing the looting the rioting, I am discussing the state of America that brings about such behavior and actions.

I am not excusing violence on any level...something both of you seem to be doing btw (with the police)

I'm still to pissed to rationally talk. I will post tomorrow on my opinions and you can read them or not.

BUT, I will never let some bullshit racist, ignorant shit like that come across my eyes without standing up for and speaking out for what I believe in. And personally 2 people from bumfck egypt midwest...it doesn't surprise me how you feel on the subject...trust me.

As you can tell I'm still too pissed to break it down racially, sociologically, psychologically, economically and any other "cally" there is.

Just remember this, you step to me about this issue, you'd best have all your ducks in a row. My son means more to me than anything in this world and I have spent the last 10 years researching, living and experiencing the black experience in America so I can better help him in life as best I can.

I am confident that I can hold my own with this...you'd best be confident that you can hold your own if you continue this debate.

Slick!

How the fuck would you like to be pulled over for no other reason than you are black or latino.

How would you like to be shot in your back, while you are running for a misdemeanor just because you are black? You think that happens with whites?.....WHEN!

You are so out of line it is not even funny. You think you and Gemini have something to bitch about because you have yourselves a little riot. Have you ever heard of THE LOS ANGELES RIOTS?

Why do you think things like that happen?

Do you think blacks are animals? Do you think that they go off, for nothing? GET A FUCKING CLUE!

This is the last post for the night I promise. I am so dumbfounded by the racism and ignorance on this thread that I will have to sleep on it to do any good, if any good is to be done.

Darlin I'll only say a few more things then. 1) I was born in San Francisco, lived all around the world too. And gosh ended up in Ohio married to a Indian. They weren't enslaved hardly. Easier to kill them from a distance with weapons they didn't have. Hear em have a riot lately??

No the local elders address it quietly with the reverence they have always held when dealing with such things and hold it with government officials in an office.

Not like today when the SUPPOSED elders tried to shot down the mayors press conference. Gosh Now all the whites have to endure the curfew too! Hmmmm Lots of InJuns down there as well. Asians.... Hmmm some of you MISS the freaking point that democracy does NOT mean you do as YOU or a few feel like. You address it properly.

So if we need to call the police to protect us from whatever, we want them to be afraid to help for fear that they can NOT use force?

By the way...read history GO to college and stay off the pot and do more than the classes call for. In history more of the white race were enslaved than any other. Don't let this get stupid with you being 3000 miles away not knowing what is going on but the blurb on your news right after the weather will be warm and pleasent today.

Darnnit, now everyone knows I snuck in and hid in college coat closets. One last thing, didn't have any children but I am a few races ahead of you with BF's. Buy Indian!! Umm Native American.

April, in your comments you say "how would you like to be shot in the back from running from a midemeanor?" Well, how about thinking of it this way DON'T FUCKING RUN AWAY !!! You never hear of this happening to white people because they STOP and DON'T RUN !

Then you bring up the Los Angeles Riots. Well, what about them. The same thing happend there. Blacks rioted, looted, and beat the fuck outta white people AND destroyed half their city, ruining businesses, DESTROYING MANY OTHER LIVES.

Doesn't anyone believe in the justice system ?? 2 wrongs DEFINATELY don't make a right.

What I'm getting from you is that all of this shit going on is ok. I just started this post to comment on how lame it was that all of this shit is going on. If you read the story that the man was told to stop and put his hands up and he DIDN'T, but he reached down by his side, what is a cop supposed to do ?? I should get a real policeman on here to comment on this one. If this man would've just put his hands up and let the cop arrest him, he'd still be living. Why can't people see this ????? READ THE NEWS RATHER THAN JUST POSTING ABOUT SHIT THAT YOU DON'T KNOW.



[This message has been edited by Slick (edited 04-12-2001).]

I see your points, Slick, don't get me wrong. Nothing I hate more than hearing about innocent people being hurt.

I just don't draw a line between innocent white people and innocent black people.

The thing is lots of people will use something like this to spew alot of racism. That's just like using a "black criminal is killed" as an excuse to riot.

He was a 19 year old wanted for misdemeanors. There not really "criminals" until they're found guilty.

I dated a black girl for a long time. Her parents didn't know how to swim, they weren't allowed in white pools (which were the only pools). Do you really think them having a few black colleges is that unfair to you?

I don't want to misunderstand you, Slick, thing that sticks out is that when you thought they shot him for running away you were cool with that too.

Warphead, maybe you should read the news also, he he. You say that he's not a criminal, but he had 14 WARRANTS, I think that I'm sure that with all of those warrants, he had to have been some sort of criminal. I bet that if all of those Warrants went through, he'd be considered a fellon. And if he was soooo innocent, why did he run ?? Because he knew that he was going to jail for the shit that he did.

The thing is that if it was a WHITE person that was in that black mans shoes and he was shot, I'd feel the same way. I'd say that that guy was stupid for running.

If it was the other way around and there was a white riot going on, I'd still be on here bitching about the white people and their rioting, I'm not picking on blacks.

I'm glad that you somewhat see what I'm talking about here. I didn't start this post as a hate post, I had no idea that it'd go in this direction, but it's here, he he.

As far as the colleges go. I don't think that it's fair because those colleges DISCRIMINATE against white people because of course their black colleges. In today's world, the only form of discrimination against blacks comes from ignorate WHITE people.

I agree with you Warp. I dated black asian and natives as well as white. He dated a black girl for a long time as well. Prob loved her more than he could me.

Point being is that area is a hellhole that rivals LA's worst and the ones committing the crimes CAME (oops missed a word) OUTSIDE there to do that. It never started as a rally. Just a gathering and eruption.

THAT is spelled TERRORISM. mob violence. But oh ok, the police shouldn't stop that.

And the man had stopped as ordered FINALLY...

Put his hands up somewhat And this is for
APRIL... dropped one down quickly, in a dark street. Should the policeman that is full of adrenilan say Awww now put that back up?? Or lost HIS life NOT doing what he is paid to do? Hmm something to ponder eh?

A brickworker sees a wall falling and should he not do his job of getting out of the way.

April I truely would like to see you WITH your dogs walk my street at midnight. None of you would come back.

We walk all the time in the middle of the night. All the races here appreciate that someone that drove them insane for years were dealt with.

That last little deal I just have to put in is he DID attend the police academy after returning to the states from protecting all colors. His squad were ALL Native Americans too. http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/smile.gif Went to fight in a way most can't. The cambodians love them for that tho. Even met one.

But even then the training was if a suspecxt in a dark street does NOT obey orders...

THEN drops a hand to his side. Oops.

He chose to be a grocery manager and then contractor. That having to deal with the dregs of life just didn't work. I can understand his grief that he went and was shot more than once for the (smart) people here?!?!?!

[This message has been edited by Gemini (edited 04-12-2001).]

Im just glad I live on an Indian Reservation.
These cities you guys talk of are scarry.

I just read Gemini's (09:12 PM) last post 3 times, and I still don't understand it. One too many pronouns I think.

I have an interesting fact for you Slick, 80 - 90% of all serial killers are white.

I'll be at work when April responds, but I'm dying to read it.

ICQ # 114683191

Thank God for love, tolerance and understanding, oops sorry to interrupt, carry on April and Slick.

It's not the genetics, it's the environment that causes people to do things.

When will people understand that and stop bringing up nonsensical points referring to "those people" (insert whatever race you please).

Slick-"...one instance, they pulled a INNOCENT WHITE woman..."

Why the hell did slick capitalize WHITE?
Why did he write WHITE? A person is a person dammit. Does the sex of the human victim change how bad one should feel about the situation? Drop the fucking labels.

This thread is a bit too busy, it should be split into "police / crime tolerance" and "racial tolerance/issues"

Oh Wow!

I'm still not cool enough to post about the topic at hand before I go to bed...jsut one quick thing that I wasn't going to post on before, but I now know I must, to be able to think clearly and not be pissed.

Gemini, please allow me to quote you.

"April, I, truly, would like to see you WITH your dogs walk my street at midnight. None of you would come back"

What Class!

At one time I thought that you were one of the good ol' gals. I tried to never pass judgement on you for your beliefs, even though they completely differed from mine. You don't think I get tired of hearing how much of a bad ass your Indian (totally irrevalent what he is btw) boyfriend is? Or how you've killed this burglar, or your man's killed that criminal, or how you'd shoot this person or beat that person,or whatever? I get it your such a badass. http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/rolleyes.gif

I never passed judgement on how you live your life or how differently I choose to live mine. A consideration you did not return.

If you think for one minute that I (or my dogs ROTFLMAO) are scared of you or think you could keep me off of any street in American, you have sadly underestimated who you are talking to.

I will not resort to such classless, trailor park threats as you have chosen to resort to, it only makes you look like a fool.

Now, I'm off to get some sleep. I will respond to Slick's post tomorrow when I'm not feeling so edgy.

I think they are ignorant people burning the city there from...

lmao! I meant the whites would get ya gf. Or a EM truck doing 70 the wrong way on the street would get you. I guess you'd have to understand the nature of the neighborhood in Cincy or this one. Down there looks like Boston's bad area buildings. 3 stories side to side etc. After all it was the first city of substance built west of the alleghenies and by MY tribe. German. Love our bricks.

And yeah I have a bad *ss injun who most never look at as he is the most peaceful guy until someone was harmed. ANYone.

Classless? Lets not take it that way. Understand this, *I* have never called a name in this thread nor would I. I've never been rascist about any color or religion tho.

ME bad*ss? Nope. Never referred that we killed a bunch of people either. He has a couple of times, I just made reference that *I* would not allow someone to kill me without a fight. We all have the right to self defense. If you choose not to ok. I choose to. Well I lied up there, he has a few more than a couple but hey he was out wearing a uniform doing a duty he made the large sum of 800 bucks a month for.

You talk about the differences in us? Ok gf, *I* would NEVER take it upon myself to be SO presumptive that racism is going on NOR say what the LA police were doing during a terroristic. mob violence, ummm riot were doing wrong or right,

You brought up racist and the rest. They would quell civil unrest just as I believe the constitution says to. No color in it.

But maybe since I am a racist ignorant midwesterner I don't understand trailer parkism. Slick asked questions about what he didn't know since y'all only get blurbs of news on it.

YOU charged in with idioms, white racsists, ignorance, misdomeanors don't deserve a bullet (Umm 19 of them to be exact) and I agree it doesn't. But when you turn on a cop after being chased etc that cop does NOT have to take a chance. Why the heck should HE have been maybe the first felony the kid took?

And no I are just a good old girl. Gal means something different here. You might also take note the the kids own Mother was on the TV and said he was a good kid that screwed up once too often. And then she asked for the stupidness down there to stop the violence that only got more hurt.

I never meant violence in my life unless it was put on me. I also never act vile towards what I believe the lesser informed. But nor would I as I said above shove my less than understanding about say Venice, or South LA out there because *I* could not make an informed opinion with 5 minute news blurbs versus the constant news we have here right now.Let alone 3000 miles!

Its on now. Think I liked seeing those police shoulder to shoulder shooting those shotguns as fast as they could fire then more moving up?? I hated it. Howie that badASS injun had tears in his eyes. They showed the crowd being hit as well. People falling and several thousand scattering in to a park to get away.

Know what I saw? A kid messed up, people got MORE than stupid, cops advancing and firing, my old man remembering the *REAL* thing. But those people had just torn up a large area AND they were shot with bean bags and rubber bullets.

The SWAT with the M16s were behind the other police just in case.

But the last thing *I* would have EVER brought up was I had married a black and my child offering up that we are all racists for standing for the same very laws that allowed you a mixed race marriage, that you were allowed to save those dogs or that your child was not just like ANY other child.

Go to SE Asia darlin. See REAL crowds shot down DEAD, mixed babies are not allowed to live. He went and helped stop that to a degree. I'm proud as HELL that he did while so MANY cowards stayed here.. including all of my previous husbands or boyfriends.. I always thought that the fighters were dumb for doing it.

But those guys went IN to Viet Nam and further after the last soldier pulled out. They ran the Khymer Rouge as far as they could and yes killed any they could.

Last bit... Know WHY?? To stop the very peaople that allowed riots and insisted on REAL bullets. I will spare you the stark brutality that he saw. Hell *I* don't know much but enough to understand that MY badASS Injun that was NOT allowed to be drafted.. soul survivor of his entire family branch volunteered to go.

For WHAT?! To see the same sh*t here and the people that tried to stop it were wrong!!

Kiss that child gf. And bless your stars those sort of people exist for whatever value they are. Or they would have hot SoCal first.

--Edited BY Gem--

That ABSOLUTE last I have to say is this little bunch of punks that USED to be here. He saw a 14 year old kid running for his alley gate while working on our new fence. A pit bull from a punk had been put on the kid. Opps they bother were black and ne knew neither. He stopped that dog and chucked his butt back down the alley. Two hours later dealt with 14 'kids' all bigger than him. He is here and all 14 left this area. He was seriously hurt and for some kid that has never even looked him in the eye.

I truly AM sorry that kid blew it and was killed. I'd feel worse if the cop had hesitated and was dead. Lets not mention the cop that was just shot down there in the oh, um ok things those people were doing. He had a vest on. Those people that lost their businesses must have blown it and been responsible for their own destruction of course. Killed or lost it all because of alot of the people they were there to serve for. Probably charged a nickel too much on fries, out of catsup etc.

I could do this for hours. I have lived as a pacifast so long never seeing the truth. The will of the people is the majority. Not a handful of half cracked jerks.

K April, lets here how bad I am.

April, you can listen to all the Wu Tang and watch BET all you want... your not black, nor will you ever be black... you just had a bad case of jungle fever.

All you arm chair liberal hippy communist knee jerk reactionaries, race traitor, hicks, wigger little girls should just shut up and quit your speculating.

Bring your ass to Detroit for a couple weeks, you'll be singing a different tune.

Oops, that wasnt very PC of me. Im gonna put my birkenstocks back on, burn some nag champa, and get back to my Maya Angelo.

I have also lived all over the United States and am always sickened by these types of BLACK riots. There is no excuse whatsoever for this shit. For those of you who think that history is an excuse to riot today for an individual incident that they have no clue of that the actual facts are then you are too ignorant to even discuss this type of issue with. I was arrested one time and taken to the Sacramento, Ca city jail where the white cops were mocking me ( I'm white ) calling me college boy etc. I pretty much laughed at them for being ignorant and when I asked the sheriff's deputy if calling me names was part of his police training that earned me a nice private cell and a beating including being kicked in the face by a booted foot. I was left chained to the ground with my hands behind my back for two hours. I was taken in for DUI because I was standing on the side of the road with a friend who was actually driving the car and the car had broken down. He was puking drunk. I was barely .01 but I was the one arrested because I was the one who could talk and the cops didn't want my friend puking in their car. They left him there with his car and arrested me. hmmmm So I was beaten for no reason other than daring to talk back to the cops and being in the wrong place at the wrong time. If my beating had been videotaped would the city of Sacramento have risen up and burned South Sacramento where the blacks live?? Of course not...so yes, it is always a damn trajedy when the police have to shoot someone but dammit..it does not give BLACK people the right to burn and beat white people for historical justice. By the way..the only times I have ever been jumped on the street was by....BLACK PEOPLE. And yet...I still find it hard to judge black people as a whole for this. I have black friends. I hire black to people to work for me and one of my very best friends for over twenty years is black ( and gay ). So this general attitude that historical injustice, regardless of how long and bad the history is, justifies black rioting and looting is ridiculous. If you use that "history injustice" argument then blacks and whites will be fighting like Jews and Palastinians...forever. We, however, are better than that. As Americans...black or white...we are one people and I am proud of the intellegence and strength that the black people bring to our American family. I just wish more black people felt the same way.

PerfectPanties.com

RedShoe, ok you say 80-90% of serial killers are white people. The thing is that everyone is getting off track with why I started this post. I put it to show my disgust for the rioting in Cincinnati. This isn't about what race kills more people. It's about the IGNORANCE of people that start riots. I can't stand white killers either.

The thing is, why don't these people let the justice system do the work ??? If the police officer did wrong, then the jury will see that and give him the proper punishment. Why does there have to be all of these riots ?? They don't solve ANYTHING, it just shows ignorance. Do you think rioting a store and stealing a bunch of goods is right JUST because someone got shot and killed ??? I surely don't think so.

Corpsie on your comment, I guess that it's hard to drop the labels. You can't say people are rioting because I'm sure that most of the people are black people. There probably is a couple of white people mixed into that batch, but I'm sure a majority of them are black.

As far as the woman being pulled outta the car. I guess that I didn't have to put white in there. If it was a black woman being pulled out of her car, I'd still be just as bugged by it, but the thing is that it was a group of blacks making an attack on a white person. That person that was attacked was totally innocent. Do you see blacks attacking blacks ??? FUCK NO

From what I'm getting from most of you is that this rioting shit is ok ??? Is that what you're getting at just because you feel sorry for the black people ??? I'm sorry, but this shit is uncalled for.

Here's another thing. You talk about how whites hate blacks so much. I think that there's more black attacks on whites than there is whites on blacks. Sure, you hear about the occasional white group beating on a black man, but there's a hell of a lot more black attacking white people. Look at the riots, they just look for any reason to beat on white folk. You don't see them beating on their own race do you ??? NO, I think that they have more hate towards us.

OldFart, I agree with you 100% !!! It is fucking ignorant. They're destroying HUNDREDS of lives with their looting. They should be lucky to have those businesses in their town, but they destroy them. I'd like to see some of these riots happen in April's hometown.

Pet, you have a great point there also that I didn't really catch. It's ok for April to refer to people that live in trailer parks as a low class. I think that's racist of her and she's attacking me.

DTHC, well put my friend. I go to Detroit a couple times a year and on a few accasions I ended up downtown and got lost and ended up in the areas where people lived down there. You drive down the steets and people stop to look at you with blank stares like you're not allowed to drive down their streets or something. I'd like to see her live down there and see how she likes it.

Stevent03147, damn man, that's some nasty shit that happend to you, talk about bad luck. I love your comment about the rioting. You are damn right. In the past, they had good reason for rioting, one incident isn't a reason for a riot. They look for things to cause riots. like people use ANY reason to start a riot. Like I said before, when was the last white riot that you've seen ??? I can't recall that one. I recall many black riots though.

When OJ Simpson killed Nicole (We all know that he's guilty as hell), did you see any white riots going on ??? Or when he was accuited of the charges, was there any riots ?? FUCK NO !!

Again, believe it or not, I'm NOT racist against black people. I think that some of them need to get fucking lives.

April, you neved did mention what happend to you ex-husband.

stevent03147

Please, feel welcome to tell us the actual facts.

First of all,

I would like to apologize to Pet. That trailor park remark was out of line and uncalled for. I am sorry.

Slick,

I never once condoned riots or violence. I was upset about your views on blacks in general and what I found to be insulting remarks.

"Anytime you run from a cop, you risk the chance of getting shot"

And that risks jumps skyhigh if you are anything but white. And according to the news this is the 14th shooting since November, sounds like your cop buddies have been watching that LAPD show too much. Sounds a tad trigger happy don't ya think?

"The guy was a criminal"

In this country you are innocent until proven guilty.

"Then blacks wonder why some white people hate them so much, when was the last time you saw a white riot?

We don't have much to riot about in America. I think that you will find in other countries such as Ireland, or any place where any race feels betrayed by it's gov't or discriminated against by it's own people time and time again, you have a potential for angry mobs. Once again I will never agree with nor condone violence as a way of demonstration.

"Have you ever seen a white college or white scholarship fund?"

Yes, every college except for a few traditionally all black schools and every scholarship except for a few meant specifically for races other than white. If the education systems were truly equal like they are constitutionally required to be, there wouldn't be a need for it, but they aren't so we have them.

"But, if you had a white people award show.."

We do, many, The Oscars and the Golden Globes come to mind. If they weren't excluded by the entertainment industry (I admit it is getting better...slowly) than maybe they wouldn't feel a need to have to recognize their own. Everyone likes to be recognized for their work. They rarely were on the others.

Statements like:

"That shows how VIOLENT black people are"

"If black people were to act more civilized"

"They always look for a reason to hurt white people or loot"

"You talk about how whites hate blacks so much"

"I think there are more black attacks on whites than there is whites on blacks" (are kidding me with this one?)

It was statements and sentiments like this that made me call you ignorant. On that I will not back down on. It is people who think like you and excuse the behavior of officers like yours and ours (LAPD), that makes me afraid to send my son out into the world.

You cannot condone violence, rioting, looting, or hurting others (that includes cops shooting citizens, I'm hearing different reports about this particular shooting than you are, I guess. Doesn't seem so cut and dry to me). Your post angered me because it totally ignored why something like this would happen and jumped right to a "aren't they savages" mentality.
These people are frustrated to the point of hysteria, don't you see that?

This part is for DHTC also, you don't know me. I am far from a "wigger" (what a rediculous term). I am not trying to be black or act black or even want to be black. But, for anyone that has children, you love your child more than you love yourself, and I will always stay on top of "black" issues and continue to fight ignorance with every breath I take. I owe it to my son to try to make the world easier for him anyway I can.

Slick,

You caught me on a bad night. I'll not back down on the ignorance statement because, in this respect, I think you are. As for the other insults/remarks, I apologize. I was out of line and pissed off. I get frustrated when I see a country that treats some of their citizens so indecently (the cops and the rioters). Especially when the person I love most is one of those citizens.

The fact is, not to get off track, the police treat black people differently, and it's too often that it is in a violent fashion. Violence is Violence. You're right..2 wrongs do not make a right. If we do not start addressing the problems that bring people to these kinds of situations, things will never get better. A lack of understanding as to why these things happen is what dumbfounded me.

As for the smart ass "where is your ex-husband now?" I know what you are trying to insinuate and I should say that it's none of your business but I can't help but want to set your ass straight.

Not all black men are bad or absent fathers. He was there from day one and has never left. WE could not get along, so WE seperated. He is a successful businessman who has always taken care of his son physically, financially and emotionally. He is one of the best fathers I know. Even though he is in Oregon and I've been down here for a couple of years, he still sees him every couple of months and all vacations. Calls him every couple of days. And when I was in Oregon, he took his every weekend, even though he was a young guy and wanted to party, and ANYTIME I needed a babysitter and he wasn't working, he was there. And when my son decided a couple of years ago that he wanted to try living with his dad, he raised him for a year and a half, all by himself, very well.

My only point in bringing up the fact that I have a black son, ex, friends and family was too express how important this is to me. I love these people and I hate to see them discriminated and treated differently because of their skin color. I have seen it too many times with my own eyes. It was not to make it seem as if I'm some kind of wannabe like that one guy said.

Over the years I have seen so much of the bullshit that they have to put up with that I cannot help but empathize with their anger and be fearful for my son.

Police predjudice and racial profiling is so prevalent, and as if the day to day racism from their fellow americans isn't bad enough, they have to put up with those in power treating them poorly, sometimes viciously and violently.

I hope I have made some good points, I know I didn't touch on a lot that I should have but it is early as hell and I haven't had my coffee yet.

I doubt that I will be around to respond, it's my boy's spring break and I'm taking him to that new California Adventure thing. http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/smile.gif

P.S. Gemini, I'm sorry I misunderstood you. I've heard you say similar things about other people (strangers, burglars,etc.)so I guess I just figured you meant me to. I don't take kindly to threats which is why you got the nasty post. So I apologize. http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/frown.gif As for the other posts, as usual with us, it just comes down to differing opinions. http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/smile.gif

1) Ignorance is ignorance no matter what color, race, creed or religion you are

2) Stupidity is stupidity no matter what color, race, creed or religion you are

------------

Below are quotes from various posts and my responses.


"You say that your an ex-wife of a black man. Well, where is he now ??? He's certainly not with you now is he ??"

Um, the fact that two people chose to separate does NOT make it a racial issue simply because they are from different races.


"Everyone blames the white people for the way that blacks are. People use whites as scapegoats for the black people that don't do anything with their lives."

Not EVERYONE does that. Furthermore, the KKK and most white supremacist groups get most of their followers by screaming about how blacks, jews, gays and hispanics are taking away all their jobs and ruining society. Oh, and at the height of its glory back in the mid to late 20's, the majority of klansfolk weren't all that educated and not all that gainfully employed.


"There's MANY successful black people that actually do something with their lives."

Hmmm.... That might be from hard work and diligent effort. Obstacles exist for ALL people, but statistics prove that it is harder for a minority to get a decent education and advance in society than it is for a non-minority.


"That shows how VIOLENT black people are."

I have nothing against you personally, but that is a ridiculously ignorant and uneducated statement.


"If black people would act more civilized, then discussions like this wouldn't have to be brought up. They always look for a reason to hurt white people or loot."

I have nothing against you personally, but that, too, is a ridiculously ignorant and uneducated statement.


"3 square blocks of businesses destroyed."

Unnecessary and quite unacceptable behavior by ANY person regardless of color. I feel for those that lost property, suffered harm or whatever as a result of this extreme act of senseless violence.


"I guess that you could say that I HATE the black people that beat on INNOCENT white people because of a black criminal was killed is factual."

Why must you point out that they are black? Why is this not just an issue of senseless violence? The offending parties' prejudice is now being carried forward by your feeling the need to mention that they are one color or another. To me, this is a case of stupid people doing stupid things. Propagating the cycle further by saying you hate the BLACK people who did this means your mentality is somewhat similar to theirs, just not so outwardly violent or extreme.


"I'm sure that not even 1% of the people rioting even know the person that got killed."

Then they are ignorant morons looking to vent unrelated frustrations or get something for free. Either way, yes, you are correct. They are wrong for their actions and in my opinion, deserve to be punished by the legal system without mercy. Maximum sentences for them all.


"It's not the genetics, it's the environment that causes people to do things."

I agree with this wholeheartedly. While genetics may pre-disposition a person one way or another, in the end it is our surroundings that determine the course of our lives and the choices we make.


"I think they are ignorant people burning the city there from..."

Yep. And I don't care if they're blue, black, green, asian, white or plaid. Ignorance is ignorance no matter how you slice it.


"April, you can listen to all the Wu Tang and watch BET all you want... your not black, nor will you ever be black... you just had a bad case of jungle fever."

And you are.... better because you 'stick to your own kind' and put others down because they make a choice not to? Hardly. Furthermore, keeping everyone separated by race or whatever dividing method you choose only leads to mistrust and eventually, hatred. The kinds of mistrust and hatred that result in senseless violence like the stuff that sparked this whole debate.


"It's about the IGNORANCE of people that start riots."

I agree with this. Race is no excuse for anything. Ignorance is the cause of way too much suffering and it NEEDS to be stopped.


"From what I'm getting from most of you is that this rioting shit is ok ??? Is that what you're getting at just because you feel sorry for the black people ??? I'm sorry, but this shit is uncalled for."

I don't think any of this rioting is OK. Rioting and mob mentality violence solves nothing and only creates MORE animosity in those that may already have traces of prejudice in their hearts and minds.


"DTHC, well put my friend. I go to Detroit a couple times a year and on a few accasions I ended up downtown and got lost and ended up in the areas where people lived down there. You drive down the steets and people stop to look at you with blank stares like you're not allowed to drive down their streets or something. I'd like to see her live down there and see how she likes it."

So the fact that the people living in these areas of Detroit are jaded, biased, prejudiced, ignorant and closed-minded is acceptable? Something seems VERY wrong with that.


"Again, believe it or not, I'm NOT racist against black people. I think that some of them need to get fucking lives."

And there are an equal number of members of other races that should do the exact same thing, right? Or is it just blacks?

---------

Sorry for such a lengthy post, but I just caught this tread and wanted to catch up. I don't dislike anyone for what they've said here and I want to make that clear. We're all entitled to our opinions and that is what makes the world such a fun place. The only time problems occur is when people try to force their opinions on others and/or act on their opinions without first bothering to find out if their opinion is backed up by reality/facts.

Slick, even if he's guilty of 14 misdemeanors, the death penalty is a little harsh. (the examples they gave in the news was receiving stolen property and driving without a seatbelt - both things I've been guilty of)

Most likely he was afraid of the police rather than jail. Black people aren't born with a fear of the police, the police teach them.

White people are actually more likely to riot than blacks, statistically speaking. More riots have occurred in London than anywhere else in the world. And you're right, riots are pretty dumb - they're destroying their own neighborhoods.

I believe you when you say you didn't want to start a hate post, it's just that some of the arguments you've came up with are very inflammatory, and the way you say them makes them sound worse than you probably realize.

The college thing is just silly though. Did you want to go to an all black college? For hundreds of years teaching a black person to read was illegal - is it really so much to ask that they have a couple schools of their own?

Stevent, maybe the white people should have rioted. When police abuse their powers they hurt everyone ESPECIALLY the other police. I'm guessing Gem's man would agree with me there.

Susan, I'd love to share the actual facts with you. My friend Pete and I went drinking. I had 5 kamakazies over about 6 hours. I am 6'2" and absorb it easily. My friend had about 10 drinks and at 5'9" and 160lbs it hit him harder. We left the bar at about 1am. About 125pm the car died on a side street down the street from a gas station. Pete pulled over to about two feet from the curb. We got out and within a few minutes Pete started hurling. After about a half hour of waiting for him to stop I decdided to get into the car to see if it would start. As soon as I got in and sat down a California Highway Patrolman pulled up. They could have cared less what I had to say. The only thing they saw was me behind the wheel and they arrested me. At the Sacramento County Jail they processed me in and put me in the drunk tank. Even before they put me in there I had blown barely .01 on the breatholizer. They had already been calling me college boy and giving me attitude. In the tank I sat for about an hour and knocked on the door and asked the deputy if I was going to allowed to make a phone call anytime soon since I had to be at work by 9am the next morning. He took me out of the tank and told me to get up against the wall. He told me to put my right arm behind my back and took it and tried to twist it up and pull it up. Like I said I'm 6'2 and 260 pounds, weightlifter. I told the cop that if he was trying to hurt me he wasn't suceeding. My exact and only words. I did not resist in any way. Then I was put into the isolation cell and left for another couple hours. Finally I again tapped on the door with the convenient handcuffs I still had on. Again..all I wanted to know is if I could make a phone call so I would not be a no show at work. Not once did I resist, raise my voice, or do anything other than what I was told. This time asking the question got me chained to the floor lying on my stomach with my hands cuffed behind my back. About 5 minutes later, 5 deputies came into the cell and kicked the hell out of me. Now I did have something to say. I called them a bunch of communist cocksuckers that belong in Russia. Dammit this is America and I did nothing to deserve being beaten like that. That is just the police mentality. Doesen't matter if you are black or white. Blink wrong, open your mouth, or do anything at all they don't like and you may be in for a beating. Ask deputy sheriff Walters of the Sacramento County Sheiff's dept to confirm my story... as if.....

That is the actual fact Susan. Believe it don't... I was aquitted in court by the way depsite a "public defender" who tried his hardest to get me to accpet a plea bargain. ha
And finally since I took the time to write this..I'll add Deputy Sheriff Walters who was working way back in August of 1990....
Go Fuck Yourself

ICQ # 114683191

April I appreciate the small disclaimer you made even if it was so miniscule that even the dog laffed and huffed up for all the name calling.

But check that link I posted yesterday:

.............4............... black men have been shot and killed since (I believe it was) November in the highest crime area of the city. Notice they didn't make note how many others were shot and killed.

Judge Mills Lane is a trusted by most professional and his quote of "Do the crime and pay the time" stands.

Act wrong and put a cop on the spot in a tense situation and you probably get shot. There is no second guess until AFTER it happens.

The kid ran and then did not something suspicious but blatently wrong when being taken in to custody. Put em up doesn't mean I can drop a hand to scratch my butt. If *I* had ran from a cop down a dark street... realized I wasn't going to get away, (Good move there), started to be taken in to custody, obeying howsomever (love that word, but its that bad*ss Injuns saying from whereever he got it), then decide even KNOWING I was in a bad area one, that I was a known guilty warranted person two, I am as an American ALLOWED to decide my undies chafed, drop a hand to adjust em eh?

Have a cop, get chased by cop, guns drawn, its a VERY intelligent thing to do what they say. Sort it out AFTER the adrenalin is calm at the station. Some say you should do EXACTLY what a robber tells you when he has his gun on ya but then drop back and decry civil rights (used that because thats what the words usually used mean...Civil Rights) you ARE allowed to disobey a officer.

I again am sorry for a kid of any race to die for misdomeanors. Lets NOT bring up that murder by car under DUI are a misdomeanor in this state,... Point being, flee the policia and gets the results. I dunno what the kids warrants were but he just didn't want to go with them, thought better of it, stopped and then had a seriously stupid thought. I say the officer (as the facts stand right now are) did what his SWORN duty is and should be.

Darned good thing that SOME people are trained to follow direction eh. Or we would have just lost 24 people die in a plane crash a couple weeks back, or that pilot that brought the 747 safely down in Hawaii etc etc etc. Point being the man did his job and went home to his wife and kids. Object of the profession.

The kid that died wasn't unaware of how to behave under the circumstances, he was educated to some degree, knew the area and how the police treated people that run... it was HIS choice or even a lapse of thought. I highly doubt the lapse of thought when ANYone with a gun pointed at them desires to ignore the reality of orders being given to them! He lived there for crying out loud so knew the police could AND would shoot if they felt threatened. Again as they SHOULD. Not as judge and jury but as the law says we ALL have the right to life, and under their job descriptions say, go home safe.

I hardly believe there are ANY here that if: they had a firearm and a seriously threateningly situation was happening to them, they thought their life was in danger would fail to at least try and use that gun. If you believe that, then the women that die while raped NEVER have skin under their nails right? Last weapon we have are our hands and we use em.

We had a quiet (sort of) night last night thankfully. Arrests WERE made by the obstinate idiots that refused to obey the curfew. If it were a MILITARY ordered a curfew they would have been shot. Point of this little thing is law is law and we have to try and live by it. Hope for the best, but be prepared for the worst. Second guessing a sworn officer of our law pointing his weapon at you, orders being given, gosh here: DO NOT loose your train of thought if you need to scratch.

Again April.....4..... shot. We had twice that many here locally in the same time frames. Dammit! NO riots either. OUR area still remembers the riots of the 60's. Sure their is a corruption blah blah profiling blah blah thing going on. Shouldn't it be in EVERY city. WE police the police but THEY police us. We pay THEM to protect and only do our own if their is no choice. For ALL the poor out of breath (yeah and outta shape) cop knew, the kid was a martial artist and NO gun needed. Get the drift here.

For the trash that rioted and tore things up. I hope they max their prison time to the 20 yrs (and with GOOD behaviour kaff kaff) will be 30 days. Maybe if they DID bring in Military Law after the first night of (of terroristic behaviour) oops, riots, there wouldn't have been a second.

Also for LA etc, next earthquake don't you DARE ask for those men in green with the M16! We all have jobs, and we choose them usually. I'm just glad that some choose Police Officer. Or we'd be a land of....

But if there are people that decide to disobey civil authority (for the less educated or non english) COPS, then pay for it. More of that and there would be LESS crime. Read the facts.

Bad part of a riot and looting is, the TAX PAYER usually ends up paying for it. Maybe that should be a new way of upgrading a older area. Hmmmmmm nope.

Again April too little of study and not enough of a disclaimer. Educate yourself or keep your mouth shut. You reminded me of 12 clicks bristling all over sounding stupid. Although he did NOT call as many names. Tell me.. are you dating and he's training you? I could go off all over you so bad with names and such that you'd be upset for a week. You have that decided lack of life training that you couldn't stand up to it. So don't EVER dare to take me on honey. You have a better chance with those pit bulls on you. And that is BEFORE I ask the hubby for help. He can think up more names and things to say faster than you can breath fast after heated sex. As it stands darlin. Just LEAVE me be. NO physical threats here as MY disclaimer. I don't WANT to publically thrash anyone verbally tho. I can pull out words to use that would send some scurrying to get a dictionary. The wonders of education and thinking first eh? BTW, I was brought up by a college edicatud ENGLISH MAJOR. I may act dumb but darlin... ALWAYS know the facts and I will hunt em afore I go ta name calling, race profilin, etc etc etc, Yah I are a bad typer and use slang. Never DID live ina trailer either. My momma always had us in a house. A HOME. AND a trailer IS a HOME to those that live there. Quite nice places from the ones I have been in! TT's I guess you call a trailer park (Tornado targets in this part of the MIDWESTERN IGNORANT RACIST part of the country) I'd be right proud to live in one personally. As long as the people around it didn't martyr themselves with BS about some thing they had next to NO clue about.

Darn, someone from SoCal let me in on the next riot y'all have with a 30 second news blurb, 5 times a day so *I* can make acrossed the board statements to some people. Just as a favor to a sister NoCal person.
And yeah I *do* live on the San Madreais Fault line as WELL as married to a descendent of that great earthquake psychic Tecumseh, Turtle Clan, Shawnee tribe. So I guess I could tell y'all what to do about them thar things eh? BTW, the WORST quake this country ever had. He says it is going to happen just as that chief said but not quite the right date. Ignernt savags nevah could count right eh?
Hmmm does being from SanFran make me queer? Yeah THOSE are barbs from someone that you don't want to hold a word or ANY contest with! YOU made it personal with the name calling as *I* could have with the dawg thing. Gosh, I didn't eh.

The only thing that I ask of Lens and Wizzo and y'all is leave this long enough to put a person in their place for a minute if she is enuff to stand and think. Temper gets you nothing but trouble. Cool heads prevail.

And I think trailer parks are great! Most are full of friendly people that know each other well!

To Redshoe...sorry for your not understanding on the post last night darlin. I was thinking that blasted InJun way and they use all dem nouns and proverbs or is that adverbs, pronouns? H*ll I dunno, they use em weird at times and I fell victim to that I guess.

Luv ya tho! http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/wink.gif

holy shit you guys - calm the fuck down.
Getting semantic after a repeated law-breaker gets popped (as for innocent til proven guilty - i never heard of an innocent man with 14 warrants out for their arrest).

Scum of the earth will use any excuse for a good looting spree - no matter what town/ country or race - in the riots in N.Ireland, the police use water cannons filled with potato dye on the rioters, and walk around arresting them over a week later.

See, I am not racist (i hate everybody http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/tongue.gif),
I know police of most countries have facist pigs in their ranks, but i have stood, cocked my rifle, aimed and screamed 'stop or i fire' while in the forces - and even though the guy was drunk, as soon as he heard the block slam in - he stopped still.
He knew he was doing wrong, but knew not to fuck with a guy pointing a rifle at him.

What was this 'martyr' who ended up causing riots thinking? He is a stupid dead man now.
Give him a Darwin Award.

Now you taxpayers are having to foot the bill for the extra policing and the law suits that the dead cretin's parents will bring up. How much did the dead guy pay in taxes last year? lol

I can't believe the mindset of bleeding-heart fuckin liberals - another dead bad guy - Tough fuckin shit.
Get the army in with some CS and stun grenades and just arrest the rest of the thieving scum that's running around screaming before they do any more damage.

Hey you go Kat! lol you basically said it.

Now take that nasty face and get outta this thread if ya don't want to debate! lol

68 arrests on Thursday night. All obstinate I don't gotta obey this curfew law people. Dips got to drink some hot sauce and go away.

I can ONLY hope that this sort of thread teaches those that can only think THEY have rights that you don't. You have the SAME rights we all have.

We vote the dips in and they hopefully make the laws the majority wants. Pot will stay illegal. Vulgar language in public, spoken or written is a no no. Napster will go as will the big guys you all sweat on replacing them. Crime is crime. No matter the size!!

Rule one is OBEY the law. It gives sworn law officers the right to apprehend in whatever means that doesn't endanger the public irradically ANY person with a warrant or has just been seen commiting a crime,

It also gives us some rights. First, Obey ANY command given us by said officer and second we will have our day in court for vindictation if we are innocent. Sort of a loose third one there that if ya don't, oops.

Even a hundred years back people willingly gave up for major crimes. Others might sit for 2 or 3 years in some jail and then be released because they WERE innocent. lol

There is NO one person that has more rights than any other. You think ya do? They WILL lock you up. Hope ya learn something from the experience. It seems most don't anymore. In the west, they even gave you your gun BACK when they released you! Well if ya had one when you went in anyhow. http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/smile.gif

You guys have been at this since yesterday, writing novel length replies full of passion and energy..

You guys ever sleep? Lets talk about Dank instead.. I think Dank is a nicer topic.

I think you better ask yourself why the riot arise? Is it true because of the shooting?? From my experience living in the hard country I'm sure it's not the reason why!!
The reason is there's no equal justice in court or in life as well for black people even since you haven't born yet!!! That's merely about injustice they have to face in their life!!!! And the shooting was not the main cause.

Do not compare black people with indian because any race has their own way of life! And that's answering why indian never revolt infact they are smaller community than black people!

"Innocent people become victim? Innocent people injured??" Now I have a question for you... DID GREAT GRANDMOTHERS OF THAT WHITE INNOCENT PEOPLE BLAMING OR EVEN TAKING AN ACTION TO STOP THE BRUTALITY TREATMENT THAT BLACK PEOPLE HAD TO SUFFER LONG TIME AGO BECAUSE OF THEIR WHITE COMMUNITY???

DID YOUR WHITE COMMUNITY ALLOWING THEM TO GO TO YOUR SCHOOL A LONGGGGG TIME AGO????

All I can say is... "IF YOU CULTIVATE THE WIND THEN IT WILL YIELD YOU THE STORM"

Now get back to business! http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/biggrin.gif

Hey guys, I don't have too much time on here to go through and dig through everyone's comments.

I'm not gonna beat a dead horse here and recycle all of my past comments.

I agree with Blakkfrog's comments about it being a senseless act of violence, it definately is.

You people are on here talking about how I shouldn't say BLACK and WHITE people and stuff like that how those BLACK people attacked a WHITE woman. WELL, why did this riot start ???? Ask one of the rioters, they'll tell you because a WHITE cop killed a BLACK man. Why does color come into play there and it's ok, but when I bring it up, it's not ok ??

I'm sorry that this post has gotten like this and I look like an ignorant jerk. I don't have anything against black people, I actually have a couple of friends that are black.

The thing is that EVERY DAY people are getting killed, blacks, whites, latinos, it doesn't matter what race they are. The thing is that I don't think that people have the right to cause a riot and HURT people. If there's one victim, that's enough, we don't need to have other people's lives ruined because of another problem, that gives a domino effect.

Sure, some people don't agree with the legal system, but that's all that we've got to follow, it's up to THEM to provide justice, not a bunch of ignorant assholes. Riots just cause more hurt and pain. Why not make a peaceful demonstration, look at down in Florida with that Cuban boy, they showed a HUGE demonstration and nobody got hurt, THAT'S how you show a point, not trashing your town and hurting other innocent people.

I'm sorry if any of my comments inflamed some of you, these are my opinions, that is what this board is for right ??? Those are my opinions on the matter, they might've gotten carried into the wrong areas or interpreted differently than I originally wanted them to, but shit happens, he he he.

Anyways, I'll get some other replies on this matter tomarrow. I'm sorry for not getting to some of your replies here, but I will tomarrow, I have a LOT of stuff to take care of here. I spent enough while I was on here last night, he he he.

I don't condone rioting or violence but I think that this type of riot stems from an overall sense of frustration and a feeling that conventional forms of protest are inadequate. Regardless of who is to blame, the recent rioting in the OverTheRhine area is a clear indication that things are not going entirely well there and everyone involved should work together to eliminate the causal factors that lead to this.
