Re: Minneapolis
That has a lot more connotations than affecting gang culture.Ornchurch wrote: ↑Mon Jun 01, 2020 10:51 am A lot of gang culture revolves around drugs. It is seen as a way to buck the system and make easy money without working hard in the conventional manner.
A revolutionary idea; make drugs legal and take away the majority of what they fight over and hold in esteem.
How would people feel if all drugs from Class A down were made legal if it had an effect on reducing the gang culture?
Again, it's easy to blame drugs. Oh they are drug dealing, it's easy money etc...but people stop there.
Why do they need to turn to drugs to get money? What circumstances lead them there? Why dont they feel that they have the opportunity to make money legally? The 'ease' of making money through drugs is exactly the same for white kids as it is black kids but unless you think that black kids are simply lazier than white kids there's got to be different reasons...right?

100%. There is a tweet or comment for everything. It's so easy to use his own words and actions against him. He is a sick demented weak man child.

Re: Minneapolis
This is starting to sound like a bunch of I'm assuming white blokes trying to argue over what the real issues for black people are, but the biggest driver of low level crime is always lack of opportunity. As a general rule, the more equal a society and the more social mobility there, the less crime there is.Beradogs wrote: ↑Mon Jun 01, 2020 6:26 am The biggest problem facing a young black kid in London today isn’t the police and their supposed ‘institutional’ racism, it’s other black kids that carry knives. There are plenty of countries with poverty and low crime rates by the way so there has to be an answer? Protesters are white middle class, guilt ridden, patronizing, virtue signalling, apologists. It's their way and means of being able to claim to be multi cultural and caring while crossing the road if they saw a black fella coming the other way.
Obviously, breaking the cycle of 3-4 generations of marginalisation, ghettoisation and being demonised is pretty difficult even if you started to address the lack of opportunity that currently exists. How do you go back and fix the problems created by racism in the 60s and 70s? How can it help that you still have sh*t like the Windrush stuff happening that makes it pretty clear that immigrants and the children of immigrants still constitute 2nd class citizens?

Re: Minneapolis
I was not making any point, I was merely provinging the stats of death by cop. To be honest I was shocked and surprised that there are that many. One is too many, but the numbers of deaths is astounding.NuneatonO's wrote: ↑Mon Jun 01, 2020 9:03 amThey are indeed interesting stats.Thor wrote: ↑Sun May 31, 2020 10:27 pm Interesting stats on death by cop in the USA.

Particularly when you put those numbers into perspective; and consider that only 13.4% of Americans in the U.S.A. are black.

There is a video out there where it shows them beating floyd in the back of the motor whilst one of the watches and then they drag him out the other side to his sad death. Animals.

Re: Minneapolis
I never believed the original findings as it’s quite clear the man couldn’t breathe, and the authorities probably wanted to quell the situation when it probably just fans the flame further.

I’m convinced that every statement or decision he makes has one eye on trying to make himself look macho. He is so inadequate and obviously insecure it’s completely bizarre.

Re: Minneapolis
I’d love to know what is going on here.
1) why are policemen getting out of the a,balance
2) why are medical professionals not tending to Floyd
3) why wasn’t cpr attempted
4) why wasn’t oxygen given
5) why is absolutely zero medical help by medical professionals being given to him
6) why are they pulling him around like a slab of meat instead of care and attention you should expect
7) wtf is actually going on?

Re: Minneapolis
Dear oh dear.
What are these U.S. Cops doing?
Clear case of pre-organised damage, isn't it?
Anyway, here's a great tune from the 80's to bring back some happy memories (with a suitably updated video):

So what does he do when people mock him for hiding? Tear gases peaceful protesters outside a church so he can set up a walk over to a church and hold up a bible to prove he is not scared to walk the streets...pathetic.

Re: Minneapolis
I saw that one yesterday, what is going on? There are many saying that this was a set up and a false flag, when you see the ambulance, the police car and now the building you kind of question the motives behind it all. Certainly divide and conquer springs to mind. There are videos of bricks being piled up, like hundreds of bricks where there is no work being uundertaken in that area and the man on the street is saying we are being played here.
If you scroll down you will see the man in the black shirt, yet this thread has three points of proof in three different areas.
