Sopened should develop the technology to have the body cameras activate as soon as the officer leaves the vehicle if the blue and reds have been activated. They also shouldn’t have the ability to indiscriminately turn on and off the devices. Or if they do then the arrests they make shouldn’t be counted. There needs…

You’re obviously unhappy that Black people have agency and only want equity - not superior just equal treatment. You want to be with us so badly that you keeping coming to this site whose views you don’t agree with and to communicate with people who you envy and despise at the same time. We’re all surprised that your…

To Mekhi: I would ask the same question of you, why do you feel the need to use it? What purpose does it serve for you? Both questions are rhetorical as there is no good answer for its use. Its not about them, it's about us. My teeth are beautiful and I don't use it. I often wonder how good s job they have done that…

Biden should absolutely get rid of the debt from federal loans but he won’t as he is from the state that has more financial institutions registered as businesses than any other due to their tax laws. They got him elected for 30 years in the senate. It may cost him but I don’t know that he will go against his 30 year…

I have never been one or identified as one. I stopped using the word 30 years ago. I say it all the time, if we stopped using the word that was created to dehumanize and enslave us then they couldn’t make the argument this woman made. Then when they use it there would be no “error in judgment” or “misunderstanding”…

Your story made me laugh because I could imagine the look on your face when the request was made. No, I know what it was, I just floated the idea that, you know “non-racists” like to accuse us of saying “it’s all about race” when they don’t see the obviousness of it. My point was the actually the same one you made…

It’s her Sade, JLo, Megan thee, Rihanna, Serena, LisaRaye and Stacey Dash. For the exception of Stacey, she told me we could be cool if I had the shot to take for the rest of them. In response, Michael B. Jordan, the Rock, Sean Connery (no longer a factor) and that damn Rege-Jean are NEVER allowed to the house. Ever!

Her statements and behavior during the conservative Wonder Years is abhorrent and reprehensible. There are no excuses. I do feel that she (along with Michelle Malkin, Sage Steele and others) are doing what they what pays their bills without a thought to long term complications; i.e. when white folks tire of they ass.…

I think you may be overthinking it a bit. Before actual desegregation, Black and Brown neighborhoods accepted Black and Brown occupants from every strata - doctors to janitors - because we were forced by whatever evil-into-law that white folk wanted to impose on us to live together in our neighborhoods. The true mark…

All of those proposals seem perfectly reasonable and necessary. I am wondering how the GOP of Evil Shit will respond if at all. The past month or so I have heard no policy arguments from them other than some bullshit “stimulus is bad for the country somehow” and Dr. Seuss is somehow cancelled even though the books are…

By definition they can’t because racism is inherently illogical and devoid of facts. It requires the racist to ignore all that that they may see and hear that may change their minds. 

Biden and the Dem leadership (Shumer in particular) said specifically that they learned from those mistakes in 2009 and so basically fuck the GOP. They're gonna do their agenda. Now if Biden would just fucking wise up and get rid of that student debt and stop fucking bombing people in those Muslim territories, he…

I’ll take that. He is amazing. 

White folk will always say we claim racism where there isn’t racism. In this particular incident, we don’t really know (although strongly suspect) that this assumably white woman had some racial bias that drove her to inexplicably command a 5-year old to put his hands in the toilet filled with his own shit. What we do…

As I have no proof either way, I will just rest on the verbal punishment of this: (This really ain’t for you Damon. It’s for others who may have some questions about what it looks like when one sees greatness operating)

Drake is catchy. He is the equivalent of a 5 guys burger. Tasty when you need something to eat and not completely bad for you. But what if you want the equivalent of an aged steak and baked potato on white linen tablecloths? You can choose Jay-z or Nas or Biggie or Pac or Rakim. On a good day I might even add Mos Def…

I’m 51. I’ve been Black my whole life. I stopped using the N-word at roughly 22-23. It didn’t take 2 years. At my HBCU (where the term is still used by most folks, just like we do in these covid streets I’m sure) I was presented with an argument by my history teacher on the creation and history of the word and how…

Yes, these were letters of intimidation. Recruitment in the sense of signaling to dull-witted idiots that they’re still around working for evil. I should have worded it more clearly.

The fact that states are outchea making it illegal to vote legally but there are no laws against sending people KKK recruitment letters should tell anyone all they need to know about the motivations of white folk to do the wrong thing. In Germany for example, it is illegal to wear or promote or memorialize with…

Ghe same reason the GOP didn't convict an obvious leader of an attempted coup: you cannot convict if you're complicit
