General Discussion
In reply to the discussion: Keith Scott had a stolen gun, wife filed protective order on him in 2015 (2nd protective order 2004) [View all]I've watched my "political allies" sit on their high horse for 50 years always looking down upon me with 'compassion and empathy' shining in their eyes, saying "I'm on your side" and then ride off into the sunset never looking back but shouting, "it's going to get better, you'll have your eqaulity one day" and NOTHING IS REALLY DIFFERENT from that time 46 years ago when I ran the police gauntlet of nightsticks during a protest against Spiro Agnew.
The gauntlet now consists of bullets and in the case of Sandra Bland, she had no chance to escape execution. My true "allies" are few and far between my liberal and progressive "ally" and this is exactly why racism, white supremacisrs and the New American Nazi Party has so many members that 300million+ americans can't hide that fact. Hell their leader is running for POTUS to put AA, women and all muslim and hispanic people "back in their place". Racist hate is still a sad fact of life for millions subject to it on ALL levels of american society because my "allies" are too far and few between. Thank God The new generation of activists like BLM are out there now pissing off the "allies" because AA can't wait any longer for the "allies" to climb off their high horse and join the fray in numbers that will let the hate faction(s) of america understand they are outnumbered. AA people are truly still fighting an uphill battle with racist and their army(s) and with very few "allies" in the coalition.
This site has shown me what my "allies" are all about when it has come to the murder/executions of AA people from Trayvon Martin to Mr. Scott. So as summation, I feel you are saying my white "allies" are my only chance to see true "white privilege" equality in my lifetime, my childrens life and my grandchildrens lifetime, so don't piss us off? I am sick and tired of the high horse riders speaking down to me. "You better keep your mouth closed, we won't help you if you piss us off". Ahhh BULLSHIT!!!!!, I am quitting the site here precisely because I have seen my "allies" and it's very difficult to find them in this crowd now and truly has been difficult for the last 40+ damn years. This site and it's liberals and progressives has shown me some very sincere and true allies, yet they, in cases like the murder of AA people by whites, have shown themselves to be a pitiful few. To all I've responded to in these subthreads on the murder(s)/executions of Mr. Martin all the way up to Mr. Scott and who have 'warned' my from their high horses not piss off the good "allies" and even got many good AA's banned, shut down and pissed off on this site, you were NEVER an ally in the first damn place. NO FUCKING DOUBT. I will be PM'ing who I feel are true allies. To the rest. Go on, keep riding those high horses, the can't last forever. I am done with my "allies" here.
