It's been.. what.. 2 generations since blacks could actually vote nationwide?
The entire system kept them down for generations. Black wall street was burned to the ground. Now "broken window" policing preys on poor people (and in largely black neighborhoods) to fund for-profit prisons. Just look at driving records.. I've been pulled over 6-7 times in my life. Alton Sterling had like 30 citations not related to moving violations
I think the system is changing but I don't see how an intelligent individual can say that poor people (a huge % of black people) are not systematically oppressed.
Can I buy you an e beer?

what is an acceptable percentage in your opinion?
Acceptable would be 0%
But if I'm a demographic that is imprisoned at rate exponentially higher than everyone else, I'd would want to work big to small and identify that higher percentage factors than focus on the smaller ones.

So we should not exercise the rights that Tbird told me I have as an American?
rioting and burning down businesses isn't a right. Blocking highways is not a right. I think most protest are required to get permits...I seriously doubt the BLM protest have those permits.

So do I have these rights or don't I? I am confused.
you have the right but they need to be done lawfully. breaking the law will not ever win support for the cause...actually makes everyone think yall are a joke. BLM is a joke look at the individuals they choose to defend

Lets be clear white women have benefited from Affirmative action more than blacks. So you can get rid of that notion that Affirmative Action is the saving grace for blacks.
So in the population of 6 million women, the majority were white?
You dont say......Now what was the percentage in comparison to general population. since that is the main talking point, not total numbers

You telling me by chance the majority happens to be black?
Yes. It's simple statistics, amigo.
If an crappy area is populated by 60% black, 25% brown and 15% white..I'm betting that arrest statistics would show near the same % for each color.

I can tell you one thing... you won't find any individual accountability in here. Everything is someone else's fault.

But we are talking about 13% of the population having the worst education, diet, infant mortality, criminal rates, and etc than any other race. That is more than a coincident.

i like this one commenters post.

Many readers here are becoming anti establishment, and thats because you've finally wised up and opened your eyes. Now, the msm, soros and tptb want to manufacture a race war so we stay divided. How do they accomplish that? There is VERY LITTLE white on black crime these days and only tons of black on black crime. The answer? WHITE COPS, because they deal with many black criminal elements on a daily basis. So heres a black gentlemen who 'broke down' on the road (maybe they werent aware of his circumstances and is it even true or a media lie) who was instructed to lie on the ground. Instead, he keeps his hands up while walking but refuses all other instruction. He walks 30 yards to his car while being told he will be shot if he doesnt comply the entire time. When he gets to his car, he does what the cops fear the most. He sticks his arm in the car to get something. What will he pull out, a tire jack or sub machine gun? They are cleared to shoot at that point. What if they dont take him down and he shoots and kills a passerby? They are authorized to use deadly force. Can you blame them?

It's no coincidence that they don't want to go out an earn a living instead of waiting for handouts. That shite is being passed down from generation to generation.

Do I believe black lives matter yes. Do I support a group of people protest which leads to destruction that the media labels as blm? No.

Except that no cop flinched or even went backwards when he allegedly when into his car. And how do you know exactly what he was instructed to do? Because the cops said so? Keep in mind these are the same cops that said he would not put his hands in the air, which was blatantly false
Posted on 9/20/16 at 11:19 am to LSU_Saints_Hornets
I truly think you like playing the black militant (Michael Evans) on here and most of your posts are just trolls. At least I would like to think that anyway

Except that most do get an education and most do work. Yet you use the word "they" to broadly paint an entire race

Starting to think the same. He's too wilfully ignorant and needlessly incendiary to be sincere.
