RACISM!!!

Specifically, racism + self hate = gun violence





quote:

The billboard shows an image of a Black man and a bullet with the message, "Racism + Self-hate = gun violence. Reject the oppression." Anti-gun activists and leaders of the group behind the billboard, The No Hate Zone, urged members of the Black community to "destroy white supremacy, not each other" during an unveiling of the sign last Monday. Portland native Elijah Hasan told The Oregonian newspaper that the bullet, much like a slave ship, is a "vessel of trauma for Black people." The founder of The No Hate Zone, Sam Sachs, announced Monday that at least three more nearly identical billboards are planned to go up around the city in the coming weeks

Wait a minute. Are they promoting blacks killing whites?

That's how I read it.

LO fricking L

Accountability for ones actions and choices in life must be racist too.

Liberals are just ridiculous and insane at this point.

Racism isn’t pulling the trigger on black people, it’s black people pulling the trigger on each other. I’ve never understood how it’s so easy for some one to take another’s life.

It’s the oppressive racist cops and whitey pulling the triggers, you nuts? Nobody else is to blame nowadays, no matter how un-factual. Didn’t you know this by now? Hell, even some MAGA crackers beat Jussie up. Whitey has some mad skillz to be hitting like a smoothe criminal of late! Might as well play along in their fantasy land.

That bullet is headed straight for the ear-hole.

It's true. Nobody hates black people more than black people.

It’s a shame racism applies only to you white folks. Think about chitown, Memphis, pick a city.

I don’t think they meant for this and should have shown whitey on the other end or the 5.0 for that matter. They left it to imagination who’s on the other end of that bullet...

Pretty ironic in an unintentional way. I agree with that sign completely because I think about any big city or shreveport even...

Garbage

It’s not my fault it’s that white guy standing in line to buy a latte fault.


See that white jogger that went by? He’s the reason my uncle is in prison for murdering other black people.

I agree with part of the underlying premise. Dems' racist policies have created and perpetuated black self-loathing which is certainly an aspect of black on black crime and the poverty cycle.

There are like 2 black people in Portland. The rest are smelly foul hippies.

The billboard should say

Fatherless households = leads to gun violence


the main race involved just happens to be blacks
