What are you arguing for?

Well, first, the left needs to stop trying to censor the right. That includes letting people battle it out on social media and fend for themselves. Because, as we all know, a good argument is won fair and square, and the loser will walk away once presented with facts.

They also need to have more cookouts. You don't see that shit in the news. Just all this doom and gloom and marching. How about some humanistic feel good stories? That'll change the perception and therefore correct everything.

The end goal is to have a sit down discussion with them, since no minorities have tried that at all. I'm pretty confident that once you actually take the time to talk with them instead of insulting them, racist people will turn their ways and start treating minorities like humans. Maybe even stop killing them.

But sadly, people are wasting time marching and shit. Like, what has that ever done? And legislation? Real laws? Fuck that. Minorities need to start getting off their asses and start reaching out to the cops. Both sides in this mess are at fault here, obviously.

P.S. Many of you minorities might die. But hey, we are playing a long game here. Sacrifices are necessary to the cause, so wait patiently, and start going door to door at a KKK infested town and change the world!
 
Article and video at the link:



Don't forget that Ramsey Orta, who recorded the murder of Eric Garner in 2014, is going to prison for 4 years after "being repeatedly arrested and harassed by cops since he filmed the fatal police chokehold nearly two years ago."

This is fraking unreal. He must have grounds for a suit here? Unlawful arrest and detainment etc.

The stuff about Orta too, I should be suprised, but I'm not. I'm so sick of this shit and the only way I see things starting to change is getting the right people in office, yet the voter turnout is tragic amongst youth, lower educated and minorities is tragic, especially when it comes to midterm elections. How do we get people to work for changing things, and how do we get educated white people to start really caring about their fellow people. Where do I sign up, where do I start working to change things? I'm sick of just complaining about this stuff, I want to change it.
 
Let's all shut down highways until we get some feel good legislation. Beg the system that oppresses us to make a new rule that it has to enforce against itself to stop oppressing us. That'll fucking show them. Maybe Kendrick Lamar and Bono can collaborate on a song, and we can get a Time Magazine cover, a memorable hashtag. A cool logo or colored ribbon to avatarize for the season. Iconic photographs of superstar politicians hugging poor minorities. Sky's the limit really.

Have you ever talked to a fundamental republican? Who the fuck do you think you're gonna convince with talking? Trunp supporters?
 
Might as well of happened a century ago imo. Think about how the average person got the news back then. I think we have to use different tactics to match the tools of the day.

I think (hope) that we would all prefer to win the minds. Like they're saying in the Pac thread right now, 'revenge is like the sweetest joy next to gettin pussy'. Going this route is going to be unsatisfying and require a lot of patience. But they'll win a physical fight. Protesting is basically begging them to nice.



Any cop they would send to jail for that is basically a patsy. Would that be satisfying? To see them sacrifice a fall guy?

So let me get this straight.

Protesting is wrong because it's "begging."

Legislation is pointless because it's a "feel good" gesture.

The Civil Rights Movement doesn't count because [reasons].

Locking up cops is discouraged because any cop held accountable is apparently a "patsy" and we should be upset about that.

But the real solution here is throwing a cookout for our oppressors. Why don't we clean their houses, pick their cotton and rear their young while we're at it? Everything you've said so far sounds less like challenging a system of oppression and more like a thinly veiled road to reviving slavery.

Sounds like his supervisor fucked up hiring him if he knew he had unpaid traffic tickets/violations when he started. He was going to lose that job as soon as anybody above his direct supervisor found out(most likely when the government comes around to double check the private firm hires at the end of the year).

It probably came up now since he was in the media.

Nobody cares about traffic tickets. He got fired because of the arrest itself. You can be arrested for no reason at all and released, but because it's entered in the system, it still counts for the purposes of background checks.
