It's true though. Can't elect a mayor if you don't vote.

"License" should say "licensed" under bullet point 1.

The sentences I quoted above are also a mess.

You didn't know? He's not black enough for the black community anymore. Nothing to the right of Malcolm X will be satisfactory.

Of course, thanks to Operation Blighted Officials, we've seen what happens when "real black folks" are put into power.

I know Ernest Johnson. He's a lawyer but introduces himself as "Dr." Ernest Johnson. And no, he is NOT a Dr. or any type. The first time I met him I was like "what kind of Dr. are you" and he goes "a doctor of law." I started laughing and was like seriously? He did not find it amusing.

Look at this bio: Dr. Ernest Johnson.

Lawyers are technically doctors, but very few refer to themselves as such.

I feel like we should have a stickied thread that is just an accumulation of stupid EBR political quotes and happenings. There is just too much to keep track of now.

Yeppers. Nevermind all the American cities, just look at where the race originates. Even when they are taught how to function they return to where they have been for years.

2. Creation of Police Department Interactive Training Program vs Residency Requirements. Primary police officers who are designated to patrol certain neighborhoods will receive interactive training by attending churches, schools, community centers and meeting with local community citizens during a three month training period each year.


How about we institute a psychiatric ward for these idiots? This is some of things whites and other races have to deal with coming from the black community. These so called roles are nothing more than taxpayers paying them to continue their victims status. Taxpayers pay a ton of money for education and services that get squandered. What they want is to continue a deviant lifestyle and blame other for their failures.

Am I interpreting this right. 'Vs Residency'; does this mean that if the patrolman doesn't live in the area he has to attend the training regimen? Does that mean if he lives in the hood, he already knows all the bros and how dey do dat?

Same old BS. Anything that was established while segregation was taking place or before people started being offended by everything has to be changed or terminated.

But they quote their rights from a document that was written and signed during a time of segregation far worse than they have ever seen.
