After brexit hate crimes in the uk went up by 50%! During the campaign politicians championed the xenophobic and racist language they made it OK for closets to come out and feel like its OK to voice and act on their hate!
If that's happening in the UK just imagine how much worse it will be in the states.
The uneducated and racist came out and voted in numbers this is the politics they care about! The young let the elderly dictate our future our children future because they didn't vote because "politics has no impact on their life."
And all those black people that voted out and said these foreigners are taking over our country are the worse knowing that our parents got the same abuse when they arrived. To think they thought they would be excuses from the hate
I am always amazed at how scared and self-defeating some of y'all can be. How do you manage to leave the house with so many horrible white people out to get you? The local officials are the ones who control the money for your community. They decide which roads get fixed. They award the contracts for the labor. They are the ones who set the local POLICE departments budget, not the president or congress. You want change then you have to go through your local government. And that local government SHOULD come from the local people. It is imperative that we not only vote, but we also need to make sure those seats are filled with our own people. It's our tax dollars that they collect and are doleing out. Get involved. Quit expecting "them" to play nice and take care of you.
My dude, what does that have to do with anything? what does another man or woman, they doing services in the community have to do with you reason to why you are voting?
You can go look up ppl that's helping out in the community...if you want your question answered..
Im asking YOU...what are you doing...in a very civil manner might i add, yet you coming off like im attacking you. Its really a simple question
or in other words, lets just say, I wanted to join this movement of yours b/c obviously, you have some agenda against voting hence why every post of yours supports that...cool...fair enough, but let me word my question another way.
If voting isnt the solution, then what is? What are YOU doing in the community to evoke change?
Lol at what we are doing in the community to bring about change, WE ARE THE COMMUNITY. WE ARE THE CHANGE. If he's out here supporting himself, and his family and spreading the knowledge on these issues to others (like he's doing on this forum), that's MORE THAN ENOUGH. Why? Because he's leading BY EXAMPLE, and will be looked at as a role model for our young leaders growing up.
If the lost adults and children followed his/our lead, we/black people would be in a better position overnight.
Funny how easily Trump can just fuck up the whole economy, healthcare, education system(which is shit as is anyway. No where is it in the constitution that any american has the right to a proper education) but Obama couldn't do anything specific for black people because of congress. Will Trump not have a congress to answer to?
My dude - you have stated multiple times on this forum that you are not voting for the President in 2016.
You also just basically said:
(Paraphrasing)
- "Obama didn't do anything positive for the county"
- "Therefore, Trump can't do anything negative for the country"

The bold was just some flat out bitch shit honestly. None of that shit means Trump can just do anything he wants but that is what you trying to make it seem like by even typing that bullshit.
I actually never said, nor implied "Trump can just do anything he wants".
What I expressed was that his election as President, would have a tremendous impact on the state of this country - which many people in this thread have denied numerous times.
I also dispelled the false equivalency regarding Obama's relationship with Congress and his capability as president vs Trump's potential relationship with Congress and capability as president.
It's a straw man's argument that has been used many times on the IC.
The difference is that if Trump wins the majority of people in this country will be fucked. Whereas with Hillary the status quo will remain. Meanwhile likeminded black people are looking at these candidates and saying to themselves that no matter who wins black people will be fucked.
How can you paint something as complex as the collective future of an entire national ethnicity ... with the Absolute BROADEST of brush strokes imaginable?
If the ECONOMY tanks into DEPRESSION, after shipping away 10s of millions of people, giving record-breaking tax cuts to the rich, wasting trillions of dollars building a fucking wall around the country, and further squeezing the middle class
If our country becomes a RUSSIAN PUPPET on the world stage, and the rest of our foreign relationships collapse,
If the K-12 EDUCATION system and college becomes less effective and more EXPENSIVE
If the HEALTHCARE system gets MUCH worse and/or PRIVATIZED
If Stop and Frisk - blatant discrimination - becomes legalized; and POLICE AGRRESSION is intensified,
IF we absorb hundreds of trillions of dollars into our NATIONAL DEBT and reach to bring back Jobs from 100 years ago en masse instead of investing in clean energy and the innovative jobs of the future
Do I think the government can "protect" civilians from criminal acts ...
Outside of systemic enforcement of policies that attack the ROOT CAUSES of the problem?
No.
But ...
Is Hilary proposing to comprehensively reform the criminal justice system - including reducing mandatory minimums, level the inequality in drug sentencing, provide a path to citizenship ...
Yeah.
Is Hilary proposing to collaborate with law enforcement and communities to develop national guidelines on the use of force by police officers
Yeah.
Is Hilary proposing to drive across the board acknowledgement of implicit bias througout the police departments - committing $1 billion to find and fund the best training programs, support new research, and make this a national policing priority?
Yeah.
Is Hilary proposing to further invest in state-of-the-art law enforcement training programs at every level on issues such as use of force, de-escalation, community policing and problem solving, alternatives to incarceration, crisis intervention, and officer safety and wellness.
Yeah.
Can you tell me how Trump plans to address the issue?
Outside of implementing Stop and Frisk and promoting INCREASED Law and Order throughout the nation...
to the anti-voting crowd, serious question, are you doing anything in your communities to evoke change? are you involved in politics at the grassroots level?
If the Black community donates 4 million dollars to me....in my personal bank account....I WILL BUILD A SCHOOL to teach you and your children the ways and means of the white man.
And please you agents and coons don't go asking set up questions like how,when, and where this will be done.
The difference is that if Trump wins the majority of people in this country will be fucked. Whereas with Hillary the status quo will remain. Meanwhile likeminded black people are looking at these candidates and saying to themselves that no matter who wins black people will be fucked.
You have said this before, and yet you are one of the most consistent don't vote people.
But it seems like your own logic would dictate being favor of voting for Hillary. If you believe that a vote for her is a vote for things staying the same, and that a vote for him is a vote for things getting worse for most people, then that would seem to recommend voting for her.

So Its pretty much pointless to vote for Hillary. You spouted a bunch of nonsense. How much money did they already put up to "train" police on conduct yet here we are? So Hillary is proposing to waste more money on something that is proven to not work? All we are asking for is punishment for race soldiers who unjustly kill black people. Same way any of us would be punished if we harm an officer. Based on what you said she doesn't plan on doing that. She's just pacifying y'all.
to the anti-voting crowd, serious question, are you doing anything in your communities to evoke change? are you involved in politics at the grassroots level?
I'll answer, although I don't know if I'm voting nationally or not. Will be voting for my local representatives. Just know I don't like Trump or Clinton, so neither will get my vote.
To answer your questions, though: Yes to the first and no to the second.
The difference is that if Trump wins the majority of people in this country will be fucked. Whereas with Hillary the status quo will remain. Meanwhile likeminded black people are looking at these candidates and saying to themselves that no matter who wins black people will be fucked.

They have already been put up money to train cops yet niggas are still getting murdered in the streets like animals. The solution is punishment via policies just like when those Dallas cops and the one race soldier got murked they immediately created the blue lives bill. Does this make sense now?

I shouldn't have to point this out, but all training is not equal. Some are better than others.
I'm not saying it would completely solve the problem, but it would help. It is only part of a solution.
You're going to say that it doesn't help at all, cause otherwise you would have to admit that Hillary is better for black folks than Trump, who doesn't give a fuck about these killings and only wants to take stop and frisk national.
