(ThyBlackMan.com) These days, it’s no secret that horizontal violence, especially amongst young urban men in particular is an problem that can only be seen addressed and solved by us and not these parasitic white politicians nor petty house negro politicians because they have consistently shown that they have absolutely no interest in helping address or solve this issue.
These big parasitic capitalistic gun manufacturing corporations like Remington, these greedy funeral directors, and The NRA make millions and billions of dollars each year from the deaths of young urban men in The Hood because to many of these parasitic capitalist
corporations in America, death from horizontal violence in urban America is far more profitable in death than in life.
I am no stranger to the horizontal Violence that has plagued my family over this past decade because I lost an older cousin of mine to horizontal violence at the hands of another brother on March 31, 2007 and then I lost my oldest nephew also to horizontal violence at the hands of two other brothers in May of 2014, so I know the anger, pain, and hurt that comes from losing your loved ones to horizontal violence.
Since that time, I began to dig deeper and study the history of how horizontal violence in our community came about and I discovered that horizontal violence didn’t happen in our community prior to the 1970s because we looked out for one another, protected one another, and also looked out for our kids and our neighbors kids.
Then in 1970, The Imperialist Establishment in America launched what they call “The War On Drugs” which is really a imperial terroristic war on urban communities across the country where they deliberately put the guns and drugs in our community so that they can make money off of us by us getting killed in drug related horizontal violence and even selling drugs even if it was one kilo of crack.
The War On Drugs was greatly accelerated in the 1980s during the so-called “Reaganomics” era where there were laws passed that severely punish those who sold drugs and those who got caught with an ounce of crack and these tougher sentencing guidelines also paved the way for the rise of the private prison industry in the 1980s.
The 1990s saw the peak of the mass incarceration epidemic in this country when Bill Clinton signed The Three Strikes law which means if a person committed three felonies, they would be sent to prison for life and this bill has had a very catastrophic and destructive effect on our community in which over 800,000 people in our community were being sent to prison for mostly nonviolent drug offenses in which they received harsher sentences. That is also the decade in which the private prison industry also reached its peak. There are currently more than two million people in America incarcerated for mostly nonviolent drug offenses.
When imperialist media these days often perpetuate this myth of “black-on-black” crime, they deliberately perpetuate this myth to not only keep us divided, but to also demoralize us so that we wouldn’t be able to stand up to the imperialistic bullies.
The Conclusion – When some white nationalist or house negro tell you about this so-called “black-on-black” crime, make them uncomfortable by telling them the uncomfortable truth about how whites in America are the biggest rapists, molesters, killers, and thugs.
