You know how people complain that big things happen but
smaller things should’ve been handled first? Like when they say that we can
land a man on the moon but we can’t cure world hunger? Or why is it that we can
have a 200 Gig memory card but can’t cure cancer? You do realize that those
things aren’t mutually exclusive right? Like…the same people who do the one job
don’t do the other. That’s like being mad that your mechanic can get fix your
car but can’t fix your relationship with your spouse.
Such as it is with the Black Lives Matter haters. Most
importantly, the BLACK Black Lives Matter haters. You guys rub me the wrong way
and I’m judging you. The same argument I keep hearing is that black lives need
to matter to the Black Lives Matter supporters and that black people need to
stop killing black people before we worry about other people killing black
people and…you sound dumb. Here’s the thing, are you having this argument with
black murderers or are you having it with people you know or see fighting for
equal rights? Me personally, I’ve never seen a Black Lives Matter supporter
that was gang banging. I’ve only heard it from people who are concerned and NOT
harming other black people with violence. When I hear or see people arguing
with people who AREN’T killing others, I just think to myself that you’re
arguing with the wrong people. When you tell someone who ISN’T harming another
black person that they should stop talking about NOT HURTING BLACK PEOPLE
because people who ARE hurting black people are black is tantamount to getting
mad at an A student telling someone to study more because that persons brother
skipped school. You realize those things aren’t mutually exclusive, right?
You guys are literally like the NRA in that somehow it’s
NEVER a good time to talk about this issue. If a shooting occurs, it’s too soon
afterwards to talk about gun control and if nothing is happening then why talk
about it? You’re mad because you see black on black crime which is a cop-out
because you never get mad at white on white crime and the fact that 80% of
serial killers are white. Not once have I heard a black person say that whites
need to work on stopping serial killers before they balance the deficit. That’s
because it’s dumb to think those things run together or that the same people
doing one are in charge of the other.
And All Lives Matter? No shit. We’re saying ours do, too.
Again, we’re treated differently and the black Black Lives Matter haters aren’t
acknowledging this. The cops are killing, harassing and harming the black
people who aren’t a danger. When you say that blacks need to stop killing
blacks, it’s not as if Tamir Rice, a 12 year old with a toy gun was actually
murdering folks. It’s not like John Crawford, killed while walking with toys in
a Walmart was a threat to his community. Or the kid who had 5 officers beat him
to the ground for jaywalking. Please understand, THE COPS DON’T KNOW ANYTHING
ABOUT THESE PEOPLE OTHER THAN THAT THEY ARE BLACK. Even if they had done
something beforehand THEY AREN’T DOING IT AT THE MOMENT THEY’RE CAUGHT BEING
ROUGHED UP BY POLICE! That’s why we’re upset. They aren’t fucking with the
black on black murderers. They’re fucking with Emmit Till and Amadu Diallo.
They’re killing Sean Bell the day before his wedding and you guys are getting
mad and calling people out for saying that this is fucked up because somewhere
else, other people are responsible for the behavior of all.
Basically you’re supporting stereotypes. You’re saying that
because there are black people who kill black people, cops are allowed to
murder us with impunity and we can’t say anything, even though we’re not
responsible. In that case, don’t listen to rap music or support Hip Hop. A
culture that speaks about this kind of treatment with Dead Prez, Immortal Technique,
Killer Mike and Talib Kweli. You obviously think they’re full of it so don’t
tell me you support my culture. I also don’t want to hear you speak kindly
about Malcolm X, Dr. King, Marcus Garvey or Fred Hampton, Jr. People who knew
that Black Lives Mattered and tried to show the world. Don’t say anything
positive about the Black Panthers. A movement created because of the unfair
treatment of black people that supported their own and were taken down by
COINTELPRO. A government agency designed to take down the Panthers but for some
reason not the Ku Klux Klan.
So lastly, when are the police going to be accountable to
you? We’re now seeing weekly beat-downs and killings by police to black people
and you guys complain about the black on black crime and nothing else. Why
aren’t you complaining about the cops harming your own people? Are you
complicit? You think all blacks deserve it? There’s now, way more instances of
that on the news than black on black or white on white crime and you still
don’t see it’s a problem? You realize that you’re allowed to speak up about the
injustice of the so-called protectors doing damage to your community BEFORE we
fix every other issue we have, right? Those things aren’t mutually exclusive.
