    Stop Police Interactions

    There are better ways of doing certain things. Speeding violations can be done with camera systems. If the call is for something non violent or civil in nature then all parties concerned can be sent summons to appear in court. Some of this is going to be inconvenient but it's more convenient...

    Black culture in the US - What needs to change?

    The thing is even if we work hard not to fit the stereotype we're treated badly. I've been racially profiled while in full police uniform twice. I've been racially profiled with my wife and kids in the car with me multiple times. I was in full scrubs with my nursing badge on and in plain view...

    Do you date within your own race(s)?

    Don't worry about what other people think. Date who you want. Do what makes you happy.

    Stop Police Interactions

    Police should be be allowed to interact with black citizens for purposes of a non violent offense. If it's a traffic offense, drug offense or any other non violent offense the officer should be required to immediately stop the interaction. Police have proved again and again that they can't...

    TAX EXEMPT STATUS?

    Absolutely agree. A lot of lower income people wouldn't benefit. That's why we need tax exempt and cash payments. A anti black hate crimes bill, police reform, housing grants, and preference in hiring

    TAX EXEMPT STATUS?

    Don't get me wrong they owe us money and they should cut the check. If they don't though and just make all Black Americans that are descendants of slaves tax exempt I'll take it. I'd pocket so much money from just that alone that I could use it to do lots of things. Start a business. Invest in...

    TAX EXEMPT STATUS?

    I think a big part of the reparations package should be tax exempt status. I still think that monthly cash payments should be the first priority. I spelled out in another post how I think that should work. Just an overview... $250,000 per person. Paid over a period of 25 years at $833.33 per...

    Passport Bros.. THIS is what you deal with!

    The only part of that I disagree with is that black women marry white men because they hate the black community. Although you didn't say it exactly it was pretty strongly implied. Sometimes it is literally just by chance. Like me for example if I hadn't come down on orders to be restationed I...

    Passport Bros.. THIS is what you deal with!

    That's my thought. I don't think she meant it in a bad way. She just seems disinterested and neutral towards it all. She cares more about entertainment and stuff. The issue is since her husband is black that's not a stance she can take. Her children are going to be considered black. Regardless...

    Passport Bros.. THIS is what you deal with!

    The thing is my wife isn't in any way racist. Obviously I wouldn't be with her if she were. She just didn't see the issue with what she said. To her she thought pretty much like the right wing media. Just work hard, obey the law, and comply if police confront you and everything will be okay...

    Passport Bros.. THIS is what you deal with!

    As pretty much everyone on the website knows I'm in an interracial marriage. I've always said that this isn't something that is easy. So I've been following coverage of the situation in Memphis with Tyree Nichols. My wife generally follows a lot of brain dead garbage on TikTok YouTube that...

    Shooting Death of Daniel Shaver

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shooting_of_Daniel_Shaver To me this was by far one of the most unjust police killings ever. They made this man crawl on the ground towards them. When he complied and did it thru shot him anyway. He was completely compliant the entire time. The two officers...

    Pay The Police More Money???

    That's definitely true. Even in small cities and towns. When I'm going back home to Louisiana I always find it's far more likely that police set speed traps in small towns than major cities like Houston. In the major cities that do exactly what you are saying. They just do it in poor...

    Pay The Police More Money???

    This Democrat's suggestion after the killing of Tyree Nichol's murder is to pay the police more money! Be careful about voting blue no matter who!

    Tyre Nichols Megathread (RIP)

    Na that's making an excuse. They were black and they were FBA. Let's not sit and act as if FBA ain't out there killing each other left and right.

    Tyre Nichols Megathread (RIP)

    I thought the same thing. I was thinking did he talk to one of their women or something. It didn't come off as just a regular arrest. They pretty much jumped him.

    Tyre Nichols Megathread (RIP)

    They act as if the results would be the same if the cops were white. If they were white, no charges, paid administrative leave and all the usual excuses as to why nothing is being done!

    Tyre Nichols Megathread (RIP)

    When I was a cop I had to drive from Texas to Arkansas for my police academy. I traveled in full uniform. On the way there I was on a long empty road in a woody area. Lots of deer were jumping out. I slowed down and moved to the left lane as most of the deer were jumping out from the right. A...

    How would you Handle this situation?

    As someone who is a nurse it is absolutely immoral to not provide the best care you can for someone regardless of what their beliefs or ideologies are. I once worked a federal prison as a nurse. I had a patient who was part of the Aryan Nation. He was racist through and through. He came in with...
