I dont care what you do or dont like. You wont stop it just like your ancestors didnt stop the Civil Rights Marches when they were whining about that. So no, Im not trying to do anything. Im making a direct comparison in the dismissive nature shown throughout history when Black people air out their grievances. Its about race, and its always been about race, considering the protests were sparked by Black men being killed by the police and a call for reform in the justice system.

You should be thankful for a Kap, Cam Jordan, and Malcolm Jenkins. At least theyre still interested in talking it out. I suggest you find common ground and figure it out with people willing to rationalize with you. Im not one of those people. I dont agree with the protests, because I dont believe in asking your oppressor to stop oppressing you. I just find most yalls reasons for being against them disingenuous, and I speak to that. Yall can debate amongst yourselves about who the real oppressor is, but youll only be convincing yourselves.

My ancestors werent trying to prevent that which you accuse. Your issues are staring back at you in the mirror. But keep blaming white people. That makes it easy.

I love it when you quote 60s icons. The land grab isnt going to happen here.
