You guys see the shit going on in Milwaukee. I've worked up there for the last 4 years or so. It's the most segregated city I have ever seen. There's videos of the rioters checking cars for white people and attacking any car with white people in them. I got to believe this is the start of some bad juju. I can feel white supremacists driving to Milwaukee, journalists too.

Can you link to that? I can't find anything but am probably googling poorly. There's only two black senators, Lena Taylor and Nikiya Harris Dodd, both Democrats from Milwaukee Districts. I'm going to guess it's Lena Taylor based off her website and tweets but are there any quotes/interviews of her running her mouth on it?

flashin the gat in the back of mom's camry

If you look closely, you'll notice he's actually in the driver's seat, it's just laid alllll the way back. Note the headrest.

Our shuttle service does this all the time, usually when they're sleeping in the cars, but some of them drive this way. I don't understand how you can operate the car at all from that position.

I'm not sure why this event birthed such outrage. Dude was armed and running fer chrissakes.

The Castile shooting was waaaaaay more egregious and didn't spark nearly the chaos.

Maybe we're just more civilized than those sconnie hicks :D

Because all the yard monkey's where under the impression that a white cop shot a black church group member who was delivering "meals on wheels" to the under privileged in the neighborhood...Now all the community leaders are blaming years of oppression for the reaction. Instead of calling it what it is:

Group's of blacks showing more racial hatred than a group of white people have shown in decades, because a "African American" cop dropped a piece of shit "African American" punk ass criminal who turned on him with a gun. Play stupid games. Hoping it was a legit shoot

The worst thing about this are the videos all over the interweb showing groups running around like fat kids at candy store giving away free candy, yelling" beat his ass, he's a whitey"...

She's not too far off, but she doesn't know why.

Every time this happens, they're one step closer to binding their own children in the shackles of their ancestors.

That's the end result. If any easily identifiable group becomes too problematic in the eyes of an already frustrated population, it will eventually be excised from the society at large, it will be permanently segregated, and it will be exploited as a low cost resource in some fashion.

The problems can be real, they can be imagined; it doesn't matter what actually happened, or even why.

All that matters is a civilization in the throws of a painful identity crisis (ours, currently) will have found one thing everyone can agree upon (because even the tiniest of common annoyances will be enough), and in doing so, will have found a scapegoat, an outlet for frustration, and even a whipping boy.

This slope is by far the most slippery of all, and we're not immune to sliding right down again just because it's 2016.

...And here we almost had it paved over. Almost.

Cheers,

Kennith

Hate and racism will more than likely be met with hate and racism. I like the fact that this clowns mother chose to believe that her criminal son would be issued a concealed carry license. He's been arrested 14 times since 2014. The gun was stolen in a burglary.

I was told that his father was quoted as saying its his own fault he got shot. He had a gun and wouldn't drop it when told to drop it. I think he was quoted as saying " What do you think was going to happen?" His sister is saying on social media burn down the suburbs, but I can tell you the suburbs are armed and hoping they come out to riot.

This isn't over by a long shot.

What to watch?

1. Teargas in Milwaukee
2. Trump Speaking to the NRA Folks
3. HRC Falling off stage or getting dizzy looking at PITA protesters

What a country we live in.

In the US...
Do Asians loot and burn?
Do Hispanics loot and burn?
Do American Indians loot and burn?
Do Muslim Americans loot and burn?
Do gays loot and burn?
Do Jews loot and burn?

Is it really "just" slavery that drives Black Americans to loot and burn? Is that the root of the matter? Are there no other minorities "wronged" to such a degree as blacks that they may loot and burn? Are there no other minorities in the US so marginalized, so forgotten, and so deprived by whites that they may loot and burn? I really don't know. I think we are asking the wrong questions. I think we're way too scared to ask the right questions. It's a boat NO ONE wants to rock.
