Would the black community achieve more in the fight against racism if they quit making martyrs out of criminals and glamorizing thugs?

George Floyd did not deserve to die, but he was a known criminal and even held a gun to a pregnant woman to rob her house. And yes, we know the police officer charged was a piece of shit who deserves a murder rap as well. However, Floyd is admired more than say Dorn who was a retired police officer protecting his friends pawn shop and killed during the protest

Is there a natural inclination to attack white people if a white person kills a black person, but ignore the crime if a black person kills a black person or a black kills a white, because maybe they are acting out on their own personal issues with racism and this gives them a platform?

And going back to the original question: think about even rap stars with a criminal record and sexist and racist songs who die via gang violence then they are mourned like saints? They get more publicity than say Prince, a very talented musician who wasn't a criminal, who helped people and other musicians.

Is this what holds the black community back from achieving their goals?

Yes.

Sometimes it feels like Black people won't even try to rise up and continue to chain themselves down.

If you're doing well, they have the audacity to tell the person they're not black enough. If one of them goes to college, some dumb shits think their friend isn't black enough. If they don't talk with a ghetto accent somehow they aren't black enough. If they dress in proper clothing that doesn't fall off their ass, that's white people, pansy ass clothing. Why does black culture have to be poverty and drugs and no dads and barely high school level education?

Why do this to your own people?

Look at the Asians. They immigrate. The start small. They invest time and money in their families and strive to make their children better. Each generation moves ahead.

How long have black people been part of American society?

Think for yourselves my black brothers and sisters. Rise up and out of this. Get yourself educated. Anything. A trade and science. It opens doors.

You have strong bodies, muscle and sinew. You have minds that can be honed and sharpened. It's the greatest gift you've been given.

Only if we each stand up and step forward as individuals will this community move ahead. We can't band together like stubborn fungus over old ideas and thoughts. Lets more of us be men and women of science and literature, of math and innovation. Lets make our children better.

If the Black community took a stance against this lawlessness and like you said shun the criminals instead, you are damn right that would improve their lives immensely. However, I don’t think the decent ones can anymore without being called Uncle Toms or having their house burned to the ground by the liberal fueled SJW racist black population. These thugs have been conditioned to burn down anything white and beat and kill anything white and any black that wants to live in peace in a better life is shifted to the white category. These anti-life-BLMs-Antifas need to be targeted eventually and the Democrats need to be voted out, held for crimes against civilization and have their slavery since the plantations, be ridden once and for all.

I have black friends who listen to rock music and they are shunned by their own race because they are said to be "white washed." So isn't telling people what music they have to listen to facist in itself?

It's not the black community, it's working class socialists painting themselves like they're fighting Jim Crow or something, when in reality they just want free shit and "revenge" against those who've actually made something of themselves.
That's why they couldn't care less by the overwhelming majority of murdered blacks who are killed by gangs, they don't care the police are just as fucked up with how they treated whites, nor do they care about the livelihoods of the blacks who's business they robbed and burnt down.

Make no mistake, non of this has anything to do with race other than it's disguise.

No, it's systemic racism and racists that holds the black community back. They're rightfully protesting and it's already having a massive impact. All four cops have been arrested, Minneapolis has decided to dismantle thier police and start anew, and other cities like NYC are also already thinking about reforming their police. Things are slowly improving, thanks to the gloabal protests and the massive support they receive around the world, and inspite of all the people bitching about it. History will prove the protesters right and its opponents wrong. :)

It is hilarious that you would post this, even when MLK was killed while being the most peaceful person on matters of race.

Racism never interviews the people it is racist against. It only knows skin color and its weird grouping method based on that.

Yes, it reflects badly on black culture when they celebrate a guy that was a violent criminal and drug addict. In my opinion, blacks are constantly being told they are victims and embrace the mentality because it improves their self-esteem and grants them privileges in society. Hip hop music is only part of the problem.

There playing into the media's game. What should be talked about if anything is police practices. The racial angle was only stoked because of who he is.

Meet the same fate as George Floyd. No media outrage, no riots or protests.

[Rebeccalions]

People don't care because they assume all whites are privalleged

[ag0nist]

Hey miss could you please help me report @laPrinceseitaRoxi if you could? I think she is being too offensive to everyone and is a problem to this website. I don't know just looking for some support if you don't mind thank you.

[Rebeccalions]

I will. Just like seeing her racist comments so everyone can see what a bigot she is

[ag0nist]

okay thanks just a little hurt by the stuff she said so trying to get some justice but I think I learned my lesson on getting involved with discussions where I'm not called for ah... ok whatever thanks.

[Rebeccalions]

Don't be hurt, she's just a troll

[Anonymous]

Of course. The black community will never prosper until it stops pointing fingers at everyone else and starts addressing the problems within its own community. Only blacks can solve black problems.

[Anonymous]

The black community would achieve so much more if they just started addressing their problems rather than blaming everyone else for them.

[Anonymous]

Hi miss thanks again for fighting against laprincesitaroxi I think she is a crazy offensive bitch and needs to be booted out of here but anyways thanks.

[Anonymous]

Some of that hood culture has made a positive contribution to American culture though. Like a lot of people like rap and hip hop not just black people. I don't mean actually act like criminals but some black culture is celebrated and good I think.

[reptocarl2]

Definitely
