(ThyBlackMan.com) Ok… Let me start by saying ” I’m sorry I left. With all that’s been going on I didn’t think my writing was a help so In had to hit the trenches.”
Now since we last had a chance to speak we have seen police in Texas brutalize Black Children, in support of white supremacist, because a child had a pool party. We have seen police officers sit next to white biker gangs who murdered people in the streets, with no coverage from the media and no cerfew from the Governor, no President calling them thugs and it being chalked up as another case of white privilege. We saw a bowl cut having, aparthaid loving, flag burning, cracker kill 9 people in a church that had historical value to the black community. More importantly its leader was a powerful strong proud Black Man who held political office. He was arrested without incident and even given a trip to Burger King on the way to jail and strangely enough the word terrorist was never used. While in Georgia a black man protests the Confederate flag and is charged with terrorism and gun possession when he was not arrested with the gun?!?!
Now we have Sandra Bland, an Illinois resident who was visiting her alma mater in hopes of gaining a job. As of now we all should know the story of how a cop busts a u-turn ,did 50 in a 25 to pull her over, because she supposedly did an improper lane change. When first approached by the officer our sister seemed to have a normal interaction but when questioned by the cop “what was the matter?” she simply answered honestly and sparked up a cigarette she then became a target for a white supremacist,out of control,control freak Klansman cop who was hell-bent on getting this uppity Negro in line.
And operating under the rules of comply or die he proceeded to violate our sisters rights which ended up in her subsequent death which I truly believe is a murder. When I think this Sandra Bland is the same age as my sister it bothers me to think that my sister could be in such a helpless position with no one around to aid her or come to her defense. Which is why I decided to write today because when I woke up this morning I noticed a post from this website where someone with actually blaming Sandra Bland. Immediately my temper flared because this Coon has violated before but now in the ultimate act of yellow belly cowardice he blames the victim for answering the question of her killer!!!!
Prominent buckdancer’s like Stephen a Smith, Charles Barkley, Jesse Lee Peterson, Don Lemon and Steve Harvey among others have made lucrative careers all shamefully pandering to the white supremacist bloodlust and victim blaming of melanated people. Just recently Stephen A Smith came on national television and tried to blame black athletes for domestic violence with out actually giving all sides of the facts, such as the number false reports filed against black athletes which have ended their careers (see Brian Banks), or the fact that there are more black athletes and then any other race so the numbers would be skewed just like there are more white murderers in America then there are Black. Most of them on the police force have exchanged their white hood for a blue suit and a badge, as reported by national news sources like CNN and The Washington Post, police precincts in Baltimore and California have been infiltrated by white supremacist and they have Clansman in high ranking positions in the police force as well as your local race soldier. Despite all this evidence he wants to point his finger at the black man despite all this evidence but he didn’t say anything about white supremacy kicking his ass off of television for a week for making a statement of fact. All it took was for goat faced Michelle Beadle to get mad an old Stevie boy was apologizing to his master.
Kind of how this Mark Ass Anthony is using the stereotype of black women having a attitude to justify what happened to Sandra Bland and taking the time out not to challenge white supremacy but to tell Us tocower down and bow down to master. As if forgiving and being passive has been helping us, the last time I checked Trayvon Martin’s mother forgave and we got Mike Brown. Jordan Davis’ mother forgave, we got Tamir Rice, Eric Garner’s family forgave we got Walter Scott,Walter Scott’s family forgave now we have Charleston, all of the families in Charleston forgave and now we have Sandra Bland. And when it’s clear from looking at the video and giving the cop the benefit of the doubt he still least was over aggressive and caused a situation instead of de escalating the situation. And wow I know that there are white supremacists who will support the police no matter what I don’t expect to see some clown ass black man writing on THYBLACKMAN.com negatively about our sisters who have been violated and murdered. Nor can I just sit around and not call that idiot out I don’t recommend you read that garbage because it will only piss you off.
Clowns like him have done damage to our community it is made us so soft and weak that when we get shot up we pray when our open enemy kills us and blame ourselves for talking back instead of telling ourselves to fight back and how to fight back. But unlike that coward I have had my run ins with the law and I’m still fighting the system so black people here are a few things to keep you safe while we’re at war with white supremacy:
1.) Travel in groups…. It may sound messed up but one thing we learned from the Jordan Davis case if he can’t kill you all he will probably go to jail.
2.) do not affiliate with white sympathizers or black Republicans/Conservatives
3.) make sure your cell phone is fully charged and powered up and ready to record whenever you are pulled over by a police officer.
4.) stay out of Texas, South Carolina, Florida, or any other state that has made the news recently for racial injustice (see Ferguson Missouri)
5.) if you have to travel check the historical racial history and background of any and all surrounding towns and towns you will pass through. (THE apple don’t fall far from the tree.)
6.) stop moving to and going through neighborhoods filled with people who hate you.Just this morning I saw a video of a man who was tazed in Denton Texas for trying to come to the defense of a woman who was being brutalized by white police officers the police report falsified the whole incident claiming that the man tried to force his way through one of the officers to aid the woman when video showed he was standing 10 feet away screaming “Stop!!!! THIS IS WRONG!”
Right after that I saw a video of a white woman who basically went ham on the cops and nothing happened to her.
I guess this clown will probably write about the black man having an attitude and having so much anger in his heart because we know white people don’t yell at the cops..(FOH)
This culture of cowardice have infested our community and made of sitting ducks and then to allow voices to cowards like this will only serve is at the My please if you have any guts whatsoever you will Wake Up!!!! And to that a****** who wrote that b******* ass piece I only got three words for you….

In Response to; The “Black” Woman’s Mouth and Sandra Bland. (——
Staff Writer; LeVar Smith
tackle real issues that many of you want to be in l about. Denial and scapegoating will neither help you nor the black race. Levar who wrote this article offered no facts, no evidence, no laws, no wisdom and no real solutions, yet so many of you like his article because you want someone to blame.
But tell you what, follow his suggestions and get on his anger bandwagon when you are stopped by the police -then see what happens
It is not about if you fight back, it is about HOW you fight back. Fighting back to make a point when you are at a huge disadvantage will land you in jail or even dead. But fighting back strategically and yet legally will help you gain ground and minimize risks to yourself, your people and your cause. Thus sometimes brute force is not the solution to brute force. Knowing when to fight, how to fight, where to fight and when not to fight will help you survive. We must stop playing into the enemy’s hands by doing what the enemy has anticipated, provoked and prepared for. Our people must learn how to recognize a trap and avoid it instead of fighting from inside of it.
While I neither promote nor advise illegal retaliation, I overstand it. There is a balance to the universe that plays out in reaping and sowing. A Memphis Police Officer was shot and killed during a traffic stop. The question is, does that make it harder on some of us or easier?
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2015/08/02/memphis-police-officer-shot-and-killed-during-traffic-stop/
On the other had, do we really fight fire with fire or with water? Do we really want a war against law enforcement? Are we prepared for such a war? And who is likely to win? Finally, aren’t there other ways just as impacting?
In The Untouchables, Sean Connery says, speaking of taking down Al Capone “he sends one of yours to the hospital, you send two of his to the morgue”. But I have to ask where will this end. We must fight back but using wisdom, strategy and do so politically, legislatively, economically (boycotts), socially (protests, rallies, marches), spiritually and physically (at the right time in self defense).
Our people must learn the Art of War instead of charging at the enemy with a rock when he has a machine gun.

ARGUE WITH THIS!!!
For Their Own Safety, Police Can Order People Out of Cars in Routine Stops, Court Rules
By LINDA GREENHOUSE
Published: February 20, 1997
WASHINGTON, Feb. 19— The Supreme Court ruled today that police officers may order passengers out of the cars they stop for routine traffic violations, even in the absence of any reason to suspect that the passenger has committed a crime or presents a threat to the officer’s safety.
The 7-to-2 decision, adopting a position long advocated by police organizations, was an extension of a 1977 Supreme Court decision permitting police officers to order the driver out of the car in a routine traffic stop.
”On the public interest side of the balance, the same weighty interest in officer safety is present regardless of whether the occupant of the stopped car is a driver or passenger,” Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist said in the majority opinion today.
The two dissenting Justices, John Paul Stevens and Anthony M. Kennedy, objected that the decision marked a substantial contraction of the Fourth Amendment right to be free of unreasonable searches and seizures.
”The Court takes the unprecedented step of authorizing seizures that are unsupported by any individualized suspicion whatsoever,” Justice Stevens said. Justice Kennedy said the result would be to place ”tens of millions of passengers at risk of arbitrary control by the police.”
The decision overturned a 1995 ruling by a state appeals court in Maryland. State courts around the country had been split on the question. Thirty-eight states joined Maryland in asking the Justices to overturn the Maryland ruling, and the Clinton Administration showed its support by having Attorney General Janet Reno, in her first Supreme Court appearance, argue on behalf of Maryland when the case was heard two months ago.
The Maryland court, ruling that the police need ”some individualized or particularized suspicion” before ordering a passenger out of a car, refused to permit the prosecution to introduce the crack cocaine that had fallen to the ground when a passenger, Jerry Lee Wilson, obeyed a state trooper’s order to get out of a car that was stopped for speeding on Interstate 95 near Baltimore.
In his opinion today, Maryland v. Wilson, No. 95-1268, Chief Justice Rehnquist said that ”in one sense” a passenger has a stronger case than a driver for not being ordered out of the car: it is the driver, and not the passenger, who has committed a traffic offense.
But there is little difference ”as a practical matter,” the Chief Justice said, because all occupants of the car have already been stopped ”by virtue of the stop of the vehicle.” If there is evidence inside the vehicle of a more serious crime, he said, ”the motivation of a passenger to employ violence to prevent apprehension of such a crime is every bit as great as that of the driver.”
Chief Justice Rehnquist cited Federal statistics showing that in 1994, 5,762 police officers were assaulted and 11 were killed during traffic pursuits and stops.
Justice Stevens, in dissent, objected that these statistics gave no indication of how many of the incidents involved passengers; whether the passengers were inside or outside of the cars; or whether the violence would have been prevented had the passengers been ordered out.
In response, Chief Justice Rehnquist said, ”It is, indeed, regrettable that the empirical data on a subject such as this are sparse, but we need not ignore the data which do exist simply because further refinement would be even more helpful.”
When the case was argued in December, the Maryland Attorney General, J. Joseph Curran, appeared to startle most of the Justices by making the sweeping argument that not only could police officers order passengers out of the car, but they could also prevent passengers not suspected of any crime from leaving the scene — to hail a taxi, for example. Chief Justice Rehnquist said today that this issue ”is not presented by this case, and we express no opinion upon it.”
Wisdom dictates that if you are in a battle you are not likely to win at that moment, you do not undertake the battle at that moment. It is therefore not a matter of rights, it is a matter of surviving the encounter and being around to handle it legally later.
Wake up people. If you go head to head with the opposition when they have the huge advantage, even if you are right, you may lose the encounter. YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT IS NOT HOWTO BATTLE. Ask any military trained person. WAKE UP!
If you disagree, try Levar’s way and see what happens
To All The In Denial Critics Of My Article On This Site
And especially to lost Levar,
Tomorrow my partner and I will host an all day seminar on How To Interact With Law Enforcement and Knowing Your Rights. Police representatives from 5 departments have agreed to come and over 80 people have registered to attend.
Making real change. What are you guys doing?
To all those who have criticized my article about the Black Woman’s mouth:
First, you know it’s true unless you like in a cave.
Second, virtually none of you have offered any real solutions to anything.
It’s easy to criticize but what are you doing to help black people?
Third, not one of you critics has requested the Free Ebook on Police Brutality and What You Can Do About It
You just want to be angry and direct it at me, but what are you doing?
To All Readers,
Bobbi is the perfect example of how those who are racists want us to act and think. Walking in denial so we will never fix the problems in our community – male and female. Going through life always blaming someone else instead of taking personal responsibility for one’s actions. Venting by confronting the facts and going head to head with anyone who realizes the facts are accurate.
There is a deep seated anger displayed by Bobbi because of what Bobbi has gone through. This causes Bobbi to stereotype people, ignore facts and believe whatever quenches or allows the venting of that anger. That is why Bobbi keeps responding with nonsense.
Bobbi, like Sandra Bland, wants to fight wrongs that he/she has encountered. But neither person knew how and reactions without intellect or wisdom make for a very dangerous loose canon. And we cannot afford to battle without wisdom, take actions that make things harder on ourselves, open the door to those who want to attack us then walk in denial that we opened those doors.
I say fight injustice but fight with wisdom instead of fighting the facts and each other. If you don’t like the law, find a way to change it. But you cannot change it from the inside of a jail cell or a morgue. undertake battles you are likely to win in ways you are like to win, not just any battle.
YOU DON’T ARGUE WITH A COP IF YOU BELIEVE HE/SHE IS CRAZY OR RACIST
At that moment, its not about rights, its about survival so you can deal with him legally later. But if you open the door to a battle you are likely to lose, YOU WILL LOSE.
Levar One More Time,
You represent the ignorance and attitude that those white racists out there hope you will display. You have no knowledge of what you are talking about and they know you would lead all those who follow you right back onto the plantation. The sad part is that you don’t even see any of that so you would make, for them, the ideal slave.
Levar,
I hope you don’t get into an encounter (oops, I mean another one) with law enforcement. Especially with that ignorance, that denial, that attitude and that criminal record. I also hope your readers do not use your strategies.
That is the best you can do Levar? To call names, make insults and offer nothing to your readers but foolishness? No evidence, no facts, no laws, no knowledge of any of the above. So to cover fir that and the fact that you cant cite what you have done for the black community, you call name. Grow up.
Man This Police Ass Fag Is Seriously Butt Hurt
To All Real African American Men,
If the woman is a queen, know that you are a King, the head, the leader. You do not have to ever accept the negative, vile, profane, obscene, out of control or abusive mouth of a black woman. None of us of any race are perfect but deliberate put downs of the black man by the black woman have
to stop and stop NOW.
They are told by their moms not to settle so black men don’t need to settle either. Teach your sons that black men. If a woman talks down, profane or obscene to you, she disrespects you and she does not care about you like she says she does. Actions do speak louder than words but sometimes the actions are the words.
We won’t take it from the white man or the cop apparently. So why should we take it from the black woman? Have a spine men. Have some balls men. Be a man and draw the line in the sand. Don’t be a victim of the slave master’s vessel. A good black woman (and there are many) knows this and agrees.
PEACE COMES FROM DIVINE ORDER, NOT FROM BEING A COWWARD
Ignorant, loud mouth black women who are profane and obscene, good men do not tolerate that. Weak men with no balls, no spine or no self esteem or who just want the booty are the only men who tolerate that BS. Those are the COWARDS so coward on that.
ONLY IN AMERICA is the vile and repulsive, abusive and profane mouth of so many black women tolerated. Try that BS on the continent of Africa. Many of our black women have been programmed to do the verbal work of the slave master. Not here, not on me.
I have a good black woman with strong opinions, but with respect and tact and discretion. She can correct me any time she likes about anything and does not need my permission. But she knows how to do so in a way that men will hear it, receive it and let it bring about change. She builds me up and she is a strong black woman who does not bite her tongue. Yes she knows the difference between speaking up and being profane and verbally abusive.
My experience with black women has been from counseling them, mediating with them, life coaching them and even restoring them. So for those of you who think I write simply based on a bad personal experience, you are WRONG yet again. I write the facts and the truth, whether you like it or not and if you don’t admit it, you will be the one lost – not me.
Look at the medical facts about the percentage of black women who are bi-polar or who have borderline personality disorder. Facts are facts. Chindadoll states she “went off” and that is an accurate description.
You people need to face facts. It is nt true of every black woman, but far too many black women have a profane and obscene mouth that “goes off” and tears down. And for all you critics of me, a lot of people know what I say is true.
Place 4 black women with a mouth in a one bedroom apartment for a month and they will be ready to kill each other. and you guys know it. Stop pretending. Stop running from the truth. At least Joyce Myers had the honesty and integrity to write a book called Me And My Big Mouth.
At least Shaharazad Ali had the courage to address the black woman’s mouth. The only cowards are those of you who deny the truth, run from the facts and want to always blame someone else or attack the messenger of truth instead of attacking the problem.
WATCH THIS
And see if you who walk in denial will call him a coon.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGE2T_jOUkQ
The only cowards are those of you who, like Levar, walk in denial, offer no real solutions and like a programmed slave, attack the person who brings the truth about the problem to light. You do this because you won’t face the problem itself.
I received 17 emails about this article and 11 were from black women honest enough to agree about the mouth on many black women. Ignore that. I spoke to 7 black female police officers – all who agreed. Coward on that.
I was on vacation with my children to the African American museum. One of the kids got sick so I stopped in the parking lot of the hotel we were staying at for 4 days, got out 5 minutes into cleaning up a police officer pulls next to me and tells me I can’t clean my car there. Need less to say I went off. But I felt like the situation was about to escalate to far I stopped and considered my options. 1 Stand up to this condescending ass hole an probably go to jail with my children going to foster care. 2 Get my children out of the car an into the hotel. We should be able to say whatever we want to them. Until they say (anything you say will be used against you) you should be able to say anything. Is there anything we can do to change things. Besides getting killed put in jail and praying for change?
Peace comes when we start by planting that seed, not when one group conquers another. White people have not yet learned that as a race. I had hoped more of our people had.
Barnard,
Very mature comment that you made. Thank you. I am disappointed that so many people commenting on me did not read the details of my article. Many of you reacted without looking at all the evidence, knowing the law or admonishing the facts. That is denial in it’s purest form. I am disgusted that people jumped on the bandwagon with writers like Levar, though he could not even say what he has done for our people. And his solutions of just not going to Florida etc? Really?
African Americans are falling into a trap that many factions of the government hope our race will fall into. They want us to ignore the facts and riot. That is how they will advance martial law and justify it. They want us to fight with bottle and bricks while they have guns, tanks and HumVs from the military.
The Social Security Admin only a few years ago bought half a million rounds of ammunition. Our people have no idea as a whole about the Eugenics extermination process that has begun. White officers killing black men is just the tip of the iceberg. We cannot afford to play into their hands while we walk in denial of what we did to fall into the trap.
Sandra Bland did not know her rights, that’s evident. And I have done countless free session to teach our people their rights but they would rather watch the game or Trikki Minage or Kim Kartrashian. Our people have been dumbed down and I know exactly how it is being done. Its programming in the music, in the video games like Grand Theft Auto, its in the images we see and the people our youth emulate. It’s in the street weed laced with hundreds of ingredients in addition to marijuana.
Too many people read this article written by Levar and agreed. They lost focus on the real issues and that is what the powers that be expected. TYoo many people wanted to just be angry but not think through what is really happening, the bigger picture or that this happening repeatedly is all a set up.
The hardest thing I do in my field of expertise is work with deprogramming our people from slavery mindsets, mindsets that keep division alive and keep us walking in denial of personal responsibility. I can show you a ton of research done by BLACK WOMEN about the black woman’s mouth but our race still won’t face facts and try to fix them. I can show you hundreds of my cases and dozens of case studies and books, many done by BLACK WOMEN, but a lot of our people will ignore them. I can show you dozens of BLACK FEMALE police officers who know the law and who will attest to the fact that Sandra Bland broke the law and that her mouth and attitude made things go south.
The fact is that I believe I battling, standing against injustice and winning, but not by undertaking battles that obviously won’t be won like with a State Trooper in his state and on the side of the road. We have so many other options and that is what I am trying to tell all of you. Options that handle the problem but still minimize risks to ourselves.
If our people do not learn how to battle strategically, we will lose and lose big – like it or not. I am not the problem and I bow to NO white person. But I have wisdom in how to fight. The problem in the black community is DENIAL.
@ Mark Anthony- I come with peace my friend. I remember a conversation i had with a Lady friend just last week. I said one thing, she heard another. That happens when we listen with our emotions & i also have fallen victim to that. Peace be unto you Bro Mark!
Dear Bobbi,
If you are a guy, you must be pwhipped.
If you are a female, you know what I say is true.
If you are in between (likely), now I see
Read The Black Man’s Guide To Understanding Black Women written by a black woman. She tells the truth about the mouth of too many black women. Bobbie I dare you to look at all those who know the truth.

To Many of You
Thank you for the emails from those of you who heard me and understood that being in denial never helps resolve problems. I am in the process of sending the info many of you requested. I was surprised, I must say, that many of you who clicked LIKE on this article actually liked what I said instead of the BS spouted off by people like Rasil, Levar, Barnard etc.
But To The Angry People
Learn that maturity is to take personal responsibility for one’s actions and to learn from those mistakes instead of simply making excuses and blaming someone else.
Wow you angry guinea pigs should have your own app. You are so easily angered and thrown off base. You have no facts, no evidence and no law on your side so you divert the issue by attacking me. You are so transparent. I suggest you do not try to take on white racist America with your approach because you will lose before you even get started.
Express your in denial views at your job, in court, at a traffic stop or around anybody who has any sense and you will be laughed at. Learn to stop blaming someone else for you acting the fool like Sandra Bland did.
People like Levar are noise makers, not those who bring change. He speaks of white law but I don’t see him doing anything to change it except participating by sitting I jail himself. Levar do you like bologna sandwiches? What have you done to help black people or were you sitting I jail because you were a part of black on black crime?
People lie Levar, Rasil, Barnard, Reality_check etc. will never be leaders in the black community because they will lead you into the lion’s mouth, deny they did it then get everybody killed. They have no wisdom, no tact and no idea how to battle and win. Readers see how easily all of them were manipulated into responding to me again and again? That was a test and they got whatever is lower than an F.
They still don’t see the test. Thanks angry guinea pigs. Talk, I said.
Hey Internet Lawyer Levar,

According to the laws of Texas, when Sandra Bland failed to use her signal, she broke the law Texas Transportation Code Title 7, subChapter C, Chapter 545.104: TRANSPORTATION CODE TITLE 7.

(c) An operator may not light the signals on only one side of the vehicle on a parked or disabled vehicle or use the signals as a courtesy or “do pass” signal to the operator of another vehicle approaching from the rear.

An officer who pulls you over has the option to do nothing, give you a warning, give you a ticket or arrest you. Yes for something as minor as failure to use your signal. And being that this happens quite often in Texas, it is not likely an issue of racism.
AND THEN INSULT AND ARGUE WITH THIS:
When Sandra started using profane and obscene language, according to Texas law, she broke the law again and could be arrested for disorderly conduct under the Texas Penal Code. Or she could be charged with Simple Assault under Texas penal code. That is the law in Texas, like it or not.

In Texas you cannot resist arrest, search or transportation if the officer has probable cause. She had broken the Texas state law by making an improper lane change so the Trooper used that as grounds to remove her from the car. See the Texas law below and read carefully. Like it or not.

To Levar Smith,
You should still be under arrest for being ignorant and leading black people astray with this article. you are going to lead them off a cliff by picking up a rock against those who have missiles. Are you really that stupid? Look at the video and I can name several jails who have trash bags inside the cell.
I could disprove every comment you made, but you cannot disprove ANY of the facts, laws or evidence. All you are is angry talk and even your readers are laughing at your so called solutions. Stay out of Florida? Really?

To Levar,
it is sad that you can not express yourself without vulgarity, profane language and a mouth just like Sandra Bland. Do that at a traffic stop and see what happens.
To Those Who Attack Me,
You have to attack me because you have no facts, no evidence to support what you think and no laws to contradict Texas law. On thee other hand, we have a lot of video of a woman running her mouth one time too many and it getting her in trouble.
To Clueless Levar,
See how easy you can be manipulated? I have dominated your article and your time, yet you are responding to what I say. That is why a small minded person like you could never take control of the situation at a traffic stop.
AND BY THE WAY, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO HELP ANYBODY?
To Barnard,
You insult me and others make false assumptions. Then when I clarify the facts yet again, you say I am defensive. Are you really that stupid and in denial? The issue was about a woman who violated 3 laws, ran her big mouth to the wrong person, was arrested and ended up dead. That issue was also about the law, the facts and the evidence – NOT ABOUT ME!
This is the last time I am going to say this to all of you dense and clueless anger-mongers who walk in denial so listen closely. One f the worse things you can do to yourself is to walk in denial, think you know your rights but actually don’t and refuse to look at facts.
You guys are so stupid that you don’t see they are setting you up for martial law. They are painting pictures of lawless or ignorant people who think you can fight the government. You are falling right into their trap and you are too stupid to know it. But you will when the tanks are in the streets and you are in jail.
Talk all of that foolishness to those who react in anger without ever using their brain. But if you do it at a traffic stop, you will end up in jail just like Sandra did. Try it and see.
@Mark Anthony…Defensive answer. I never questioned the many youth forums you done for free…only we have a PLAN and if you would be interested in this PLAN despite agreeing to disagree…that’s called coming together..something our youths don’t see with us but only with other races. We only seem to agree when we are discussing race but no one wants to follow a PLAN; a solution. So, we continue to fight each other verbally through social media as our youth continue to kill each other on our streets.
You are not open to dialogue I see; usually is due to an experience only you understand. ( No Problem )…yesterday I spoke with a close relative with very high IQ who has mental illness due to whatever reason and informed him that based upon the Black experience, we all have been mentally affected in some form, rather that be it adoption, abandonment, abuse, bad relationship with someone who was also mentally ill and its just as noticeable with this close relative but I have to Love him just the way he is and not waste valuable energy on certain topics.
You have your truth Mark as well as your own experiences. Just as I told one of the youths we mentor, We apologize on behalf of the the person you trusted that hurt you. Possibly its the majority of the readers who shares the same experiences of racism since birth and has thus heard the stories of our parents who also had those experiences despite their obedience to authority.
I understand now that your experiences were different than most of black america….Its always safe to know the thoughts of others, but deadly when we don’t until its too late..I wish you well Mark Anthony and the many youths you encourages…
Thank you so much Levar, for your commentary and making sense out of the most egregious article I have ever read. I agree with all you have aptly stated. This man is sick and very disturbed. Reality is, he is a cop lover or is one himself and has NEVER left the plantation. Don’t we refer to them as “House Negroes”? (Being polite) What a disappointment. Have never read an open article like this in my entire life. he is to be pitied and does not even realize that besides hating himself, they hate him also. What a shameful life to live daily. Stockholme Syndrome.
MARQUE ASS ONLY…. HOW DID YOU KNOW I WAS TALKING TO YOU…. AND WHAT STATUED STATES YOU HAVE TO BE POLITE…. WHITES AREN’T POLITE AND AS TAX PAYING SERVANTS POLICE SHOULD BE PROFESSIONAL ENOUGH TO MAKE CLEAN STOPS AND ALSO NOT ESCALATING SITUATIONS THAT RESULT IN PEOPLES DEATH….ALSO YOU KEEP NEGLECTING THE TONE AND ACTIONS OF A ALREADY PROVEN BIASED POLICE DEPARTMENT… THAY WERE ALREADY CITED FOR DEATHS UNDER “SUSPICIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES”…. THE SHERIFF WAS FIRED FOR RACISM… THE DA ACCUSED OF RACISM…. AND GETTING ON YOUR SUPPOSED LAW BACKGROUND IN WHICH STATE DOES A CELL COME EQUIPPED WITH TRASH BAGS AND TRASH CANS? BECAUSE I’VE BEEN ARRESTED AND NEVER ONCE HAVE I SEEN A CAN IN A CELL OR BAG SHIT YOU GOTTA ASK FOR TOILET PAPER….THEN HOW COULD A TOXICOLOGY REPORT HAVE HER SMOKING OR EATING WEED IN JAIL WHEN SHE HAS ON A JUMPSUIT WHICH MEANS SHES BEEN FRISKED TWICE SEARCHED TWICE AND STRIPPED OF PERSONAL CLOTHING…. YOU SIR ARE A FUCKING JOKE AND NEED TO BE OUTED FOR THE OBVIOUS COINTELPRO AGENT YOU ARE
you know of Florida is it legal to stalk and on my arm boy provoke a fight with him shoot him and then go home scott free since I’m in so much denial of the law basically folis this clown is trying to justify white law against black people so sad to see self hatred so strong in one person….smh…then all of these words to try to defend what we already know he’s a coon
