Baltimore Protests

[TheDan]

It's like slavery except the slaves are paying cash to the slave owners for nothing in return.

Imagine if a slave owner told his slaves, "You can do anything you want to do. Make any sort of living you want. You just have to send 30-50% of your income back to me. See, you're free!"

"And those of you who are lazy, I'll send you all you need."

Supposedly protesters on 288 and Southmore in Houston 530 today

 

[RACER X]

Fyi.

I work right here right off of 288 and southmore...I keep hearing patrol cars passing by and putting sirens on but can see shit outside lol

 

[dustycorgill]

I'm in this camp. Texas has just about everything it needs to survive that is if the US Military doesn't crush us we could stand on our own. We have food/power/gas/fuel/sea ports/25M population/Two major Airline and airports/and a state full of badass Texans with a ton of $#@!ing guns.

All in!

.....

5 cop cars under the South more overpass and about four trailer loads of police horses on the feeder road with more cars and motorcycles. I took some s***** pictures will post it later

Recall seeing a news spot yesterday about church leaders and the community-at-large as causes for the recent quiet.

I'm sure it had nothing to do with the citizen soldiers toting rifles roaming around in humvees and FMTVs

I suppose George Soros is happy with his return on his investment.

I wonder if some of the bums just wrote a slogan on the back of their begging sign and joined the march. Haven't seen any that looked as rough as the bums here.

Woah, prisoner in van says gray was trying to hurt himself......

 

[itchin]

Source ?

 

[Charlie]

No source (or pics!), didn't happen!

 

[itchin]

I found a source. Washington post. Prisoner said gray was trying to injure himself by banging himself against the side of the van.

 

[Charlie]

Thanks for that. I was thinking more about protests in Texas.

CNN reporter cuts this short and tries to spin on it.

Remember though.

“The best white people can do is to recognise we are recovering racists. We are born into a system that tells us we rule.”

Remember though.

“The best white people can do is to recognise we are recovering racists. We are born into a system that tells us we rule.”

What a warped reality they live in.

No mention of the fact that if the father never STOLE the can of beer in the first place, NONE of that would have happened.
They love to leave out the contributing factors of the abuse and when you bring that up they take it as an excuse for the results.

“The best white people can do is to recognise we are recovering racists. We are born into a system that tells us we rule.”
WTF???
I was born in a lower working class family, My Dad worked his a** off with tons of overtime to support his 5 kids. My Mom got a job when the kids were in school to help make ends meet. We ate at a restaurant once a year.
I must have missed when "I ruled".
One black guy told me I grew up with white privilege. I told him the same thing I said above. He said if I don't recognize white privilege, that proves that it exists. Can't even begin to dissect that logic.
