Was the NYPD justified in shooting this man dead? Family says "no." You be the judge....

[nubiandisaster]

A cop told me when he pulls out his gun, and aims it, its to neutralize the situation. And if you still pose a threat after he is done, he did something wrong.

Pharmaceutical companies have people dependent on their medications. Health care is unaffordable.

Alcohol and cigarettes? No problem...Cocaine, marijuana, and shrooms? Illegal!!! Criminalized! Demonized! Is that fair? Why is my due process denied?

Anton Automaton. You have nothing substantial to argue against me....you wish you had an actual opinion or that you actually cared.

You act like I'm Jesse Jackson over here screaming racism! racism! racism! I study the real material conditions. I don't rely on elementary terminology like you. You are conditioned.

How is your due process being denied...it hurts my head how you throw around legalese that don't make sense within the context of what you're arguing.�

I think we bring up this website and general inferences we can get about your life because you say this country is a tyranny...yet under a real tyranny we wouldn't even be here right now. you wouldn't have the shoes you own or the internet you run on or any other luxuries you might have. that's the reason.�

The specific example is a professional police force (Machiavelli sound familiar? ) targeting and subordinating a specific group of people. Why are you playing dumb? You still haven't defended your situation as a bourgeois. I made an accusation out of an assumption and you won't deny it. You won't even respond to the fundamental problem.

My due process is denied when healthy commodities that I could make a living off of are illegal while the black market/prison industrial complex is thriving. I'm not just throwing around anything. Everything I say is based off of history itself and that doesn't lie.

Right on cue with the immortal technique video. I agree with some of the things he says but I rarely take people like him seriously. You know the type of people who are quick to tell you about all the knowledge they got but it never benefits them, their people or you in any way. Word to one of my barbers.

Someone runs in my house today with a burner and threatens my family, I'm calling the police and I have no shame about. NONE whatsoever. I rather take my chance with the police possibly thinking I'm the robber like the Dave Chappelle stand up than letting the goons get me.



I come from a country were corruption is NOT  a secret, stop tryna lecture me about it.

If someone runs in your house with a burner you should defend yourself and your family like a man Not rely on the police to come and save you. But wait! You can't be black and own a gun in NYC without the cops arresting you for it..Violent crimes are down 25% but 1 in 5 blacks are locked up (NYTimes). You can't tell me nothing. Go study for your doctor !*!% bruh...I'm doing my history thing so go ahead and keep arguing with me, I enjoy it. Have fun getting raped in med school with tuition prices and then spending all your money on loans once(if) you become a doctor.

If someone runs in your house with a burner you should defend yourself and your family like a man. Not rely on the police to come and save you. I'm not even on that level man. That's a very extreme example. Violent crimes are down 25% but 1 in 5 blacks are locked up (NYTimes). You can't tell me nothing. Go study for your doctor +%#@ bruh...I'm doing my history thing so go ahead and keep arguing with me, I enjoy it. Have fun getting raped in med school with tuition prices and then spending all your money on loans once(if) you become a doctor.

Or.....protect my family, while I wait for the cops to get there. Hopefully in time so nothing happens to them.

Thank you for your well wishes, you're a decent human being

. The rape has not been pleasant I will give you that friend

For those who care, Docs complain about loans cause it sucks

....but honestly they all pay it off and make more than 99.9 percent of people on this planet-you know enough for a roof over my head and food on the table. I'm not doing it for the money, I actually don't think the money is worth the work-people who go in with that mentality usually end up hating their jobs.

i know too many of those made up preachers who will ramble on and on but result to name calling or subject changing when you constantly refute their arguments.

No . You don't get it when you make a mockery out of my truthful presentation. Look at the incarceration rate in the United States, which is currently the highest in the world and tell me otherwise.

Everybody wants to put the tag of authoritarianism and totalitarianism on Obama and company....when we've been under a tyrannical regime all along in the 'land of the free'. Please.

If you go back and look at what I said you would find that I did not deny every individuals PERSONABLE ACCOUNTABILITY.

But you deny your own personal accountability as a participant in a supposed democracy when you think my shots at the system are some act I come up with just to bull %@%*.

It's all good. I hope you have fun slaving away earning your wage labor. I hope you have fun watching Wall Street running NYC culture into the ground.

We've arrived from every corner of the planet to this nation to seek the fulfillment of a promise of America. We were promised a better life in our home countries, where we were told that privatizing, war and electricity would make things run more efficiently. Instead, the quality remained almost the same and the price was increased until it became an unaffordable luxury.

Some corporations are more efficient than government, but their motivation is not to help the well-being of the people; it's only about profit. Everything else - their image, their human resources, their public relations - only exist to protect the reality behind them.

Once upon a time, we were told that nationalization would prevent growth by limiting competition, that our countries were nothing without the companies that invested in us, and so they privatized everything. Everything in our country was owned by people that had no connection to our culture, by those who never had our interest at heart. They didn't care about our survival or our well-being, they just wanted to turn a profit by raping the land, by exploiting our people, our industry, and our resources. They took everything we built and made it theirs, first by creating racism and justified slavery, building the capital for capitalism; and then, when they gave us what they called "liberty", everything we had was still owned by them.

Our governments told us that socialism was the real enemy, and that we would have freedom, but the foreign cowards and corporations were the ones with the real freedom: the freedom to take all the wealth generated by our work and our land and give us only a small percentage of the scraps from the table. Their lust for power and their greed told them to betray not only us, but themselves and the word of their own god.

And while some used missionaries and donations to offset this abuse, other countries and companies were blatant with their crimes, using war, disease, and sanctions that killed millions. They supported corrupt governments that were almost like the old slave masters in their oppression of the people, because their loyalty was to those that enabled them, installed them, and kept them in power. They became the bastard children of American industry: kleptocracies, governments of thievery. They protected the corporations and went to war against their own people to preserve those profits. The puppet rulers were given billions of US tax dollars to fund civil wars; right wing death squads execute political dissidents, sympathetic clergy, and even overthrow democratically elected governments.

And so the age of revolution began again.

They painted it as godless terrorists versus the free world and the free market, but the free market has never been free, because the market does not regulate itself. It is manipulated like a puppet, and it survives because of its image. Destroy the image and the enemy will die.

Such as the same in the rap industry, for the major label superpowers treat the underground like the third world: when they need new assets, new artists to prostitute or side and put on the shelf to use their songs, when they needed new concepts, music and publishing to steal from producers, they came to the underground, to the third world. They took our culture, our property and our industry, and our resources, even using our own people to help them exploit us. But behind the mask of efficiency they claim we need to succeed, they're no better than us. Their economic advertisement was always a lie. A few got rich, but most were given an illusion of wealth, almost as if it was designed for failure; opportunity comes at the price of the soul and the music.

So remember what they are underneath the fancy architecture, glittering rented jewelry, the cause, the IMF loans, the seeds with suicide jeans, twenty year contracts and oil blood money. Build your defenses, my independent brothers and sisters. They'll stop at nothing to get what they want. They paint the third world underground as savage and backward, but the superpowers are no less corrupt, they've just learned to disguise it better. Because they fix elections too; they embezzle tax money; they go to war for resources; they fund terrorism for their own benefit; and when there's enough at stake, history's taught us that they'll even assassinate their own presidents!

Such as the same in the rap industry, for the major label superpowers treat the underground like the third world: when they need new assets, new artists to prostitute or side and put on the shelf to use their songs, when they needed new concepts, music and publishing to steal from producers, they came to the underground, to the third world. They took our culture, our property and our industry, and our resources, even using our own people to help them exploit us. But behind the mask of efficiency they claim we need to succeed, they're no better than us. Their economic advertisement was always a lie. A few got rich, but most were given an illusion of wealth, almost as if it was designed for failure; opportunity comes at the price of the soul and the music.

So remember what they are underneath the fancy architecture, glittering rented jewelry, the cause, the IMF loans, the seeds with suicide jeans, twenty year contracts and oil blood money. Build your defenses, my independent brothers and sisters. They'll stop at nothing to get what they want. They paint the third world underground as savage and backward, but the superpowers are no less corrupt, they've just learned to disguise it better. Because they fix elections too; they embezzle tax money; they go to war for resources; they fund terrorism for their own benefit; and when there's enough at stake, history's taught us that they'll even assassinate their own presidents!

We've arrived from every corner of the planet to this nation to seek the fulfillment of a promise of America. We were promised a better life in our home countries, where we were told that privatizing, war and electricity would make things run more efficiently. Instead, the quality remained almost the same and the price was increased until it became an unaffordable luxury.

Some corporations are more efficient than government, but their motivation is not to help the well-being of the people; it's only about profit. Everything else - their image, their human resources, their public relations - only exist to protect the reality behind them.

Once upon a time, we were told that nationalization would prevent growth by limiting competition, that our countries were nothing without the companies that invested in us, and so they privatized everything. Everything in our country was owned by people that had no connection to our culture, by those who never had our interest at heart. They didn't care about our survival or our well-being, they just wanted to turn a profit by raping the land, by exploiting our people, our industry, and our resources. They took everything we built and made it theirs, first by creating racism and justified slavery, building the capital for capitalism; and then, when they gave us what they called "liberty", everything we had was still owned by them.

Our governments told us that socialism was the real enemy, and that we would have freedom, but the foreign cowards and corporations were the ones with the real freedom: the freedom to take all the wealth generated by our work and our land and give us only a small percentage of the scraps from the table. Their lust for power and their greed told them to betray not only us, but themselves and the word of their own god.

And while some used missionaries and donations to offset this abuse, other countries and companies were blatant with their crimes, using war, disease, and sanctions that killed millions. They supported corrupt governments that were almost like the old slave masters in their oppression of the people, because their loyalty was to those that enabled them, installed them, and kept them in power. They became the bastard children of American industry: kleptocracies, governments of thievery. They protected the corporations and went to war against their own people to preserve those profits. The puppet rulers were given billions of US tax dollars to fund civil wars; right wing death squads execute political dissidents, sympathetic clergy, and even overthrow democratically elected governments.

And so the age of revolution began again.

Waits for the "Go do some doctor stuff in trench coats" response.

So argue your case then son. Your point of view has BEEN exposed, I understand why you think the way you do as a Nigerian migrant to the great ol USA! But unlike yours, my family didn't make the conscious decision to move to the land of the free. 

400 years baby. We see you from a mile away 'Anton'..we've been over here long enough to learn how to play the game.
