I heard something different... What are you on about? Have you been watching too much Big Fat Gypsy Wedding?
Also I don't think the so- called hatred of bp's is similar to say the kkk. I don't get this comparison. The Black Panthers are a direct reaction to kkk. They didn't start it, it is the hate that hate made. Besides, I think the bp so- called hatred is extremely mild compared to the kkk hatred.
Like I stated, you have caught me at the right time ( the wrong time for you ). My community has been invaded by Irish Gypsies currently. Just sayin'. They don't pay taxes like the big fat cats with off shore accounts, I don't respect either of these ppl.
That advice is only for white people right? Do you think that the brown people or the black people are going to heed it? You may have noticed that most of them have the most violent racist tenancies of all; mainly against white people. And tell me, exactly how do your "fight against racism"? Give me some examples.
Bolded the important parts. I had a conversation with a brown guy at work. He said that there is going to be a race war and whitey is on his way out. After I calmed down from laughing I told him "You're so lost it isn't even funny, there isn't going to be a 'race war', it will be a saturday afternoon scuffle, and then we'll go back to work". I proceeded to elaborate on the litany of why it was dumb, starting with numbers, money, legal power, numbers, military strength...you get the gist. This same invalid moron, got crusty with me about that remark and start laying into me verbally. I rolled my eyes. My friend piped up with a no bull(*)(*)(*)(*) look on his face and said "You ever been slapped for being disrespectful?" End of debate at work. Shortly after he was fired for being a dumbass. I really don't see this racewar being extensive, riots possibly, but open warfare? If it did happen, it would be over in an afternoon, week tops.
I find knuckles work pretty well, and if things escalate, a .45 works well too. The difference between me and the average thugged out racist is that I can hit what I aim at. Economic starvation is equally effective.
So who are you going to use these weapons against?....Your white friends who may not like black people???
Well, I looked thru this whole thread and didn't find your post. What page was it on and what was its number? Your statement is kind of hanging out there without support.
I see no profit in attacking people who are not harming me. Now if they are harming me it is another story. But I don't exactly have racist friends either, projecting much?
OKOhzone I was attacking a position where some leftist demanded that white racism be tackled first. I am fed up with the one sided insistence by so called anti racists' that only racism by whites be addressed and the fact they never call for racism against whotes to be looked at ,indeed they seem to encourage it.
On that train of though, I would venture to say that most racists by definition are not white. Something that is just not tolerated by the left wing in general. - - - Updated - - - It's okay, you'll not find any of your mental peers in here.
Thats why I don't engage such ppl, way too much intellect for me. Now if you will excuse me, my moms got my milk ready, I like it warm
I just got a A+ for history last term. I said that Greece created civilization and they were white. Good huh?
There are many kinds of hate groups in the United States. Black nationalism is one of the ideologies they are at times founded upon. The Black Panthers were once a Marxist-Leninist organization but had racist elements which gained influence and have crossed over into this new organization. I know some folks scoff at the SPLC due to their suspicions of it being a very biased left-wing organization, but they do classify the New Black Panther Party as a hate group. There are other groups predominately populated by racist African Americans, as well. In my corner of the country there are white supremacists, neo-nazis, the KKK, Holocaust-denying conspiracy theorists, radically Catholic anti-Semites, and folks aligned with the Christian Identity movement but no hate groups organized by ethnic or racial minorities. To use Florida as a better example though, they've got branches of the New Black Panther Party and the National Black Foot Soldier Network each in three cities, and in five cities the Nation of Islam and Israelite Church of God in Jesus Christ. Personally, the closest any of these groups are to me is in Seattle, but for Americans in much of the country hate groups are obviously not founded solely by Caucasians. I realize some of my fellows on the Left in politics consider hate, bigotry, racism, and so forth to be products exclusively of the Right but I openly disagree with them. These same disgusting tendencies can be found amongst our own ranks as well. Do I believe Black supremacists, nationalists, separatists, etc. are a major threat to American society? Not so much. Do I think they are the most threatening category of American hate groups these days? Again, not really. Nonetheless, I agree the NBPP is a poison in the body of society which should not go ignored.
There Is No New Black Panther Party: An Open Letter From the Dr. Huey P. Newton Foundation In response from numerous requests from individual's seeking information on the "New Black Panthers," the Dr. Huey P. Newton Foundation issues this public statement to correct the distorted record being made in the media by a small band of African Americans calling themselves the New Black Panthers. As guardian of the true history of the Black Panther Party, the Foundation, which includes former leading members of the Party, denounces this group's exploitation of the Party's name and history. Failing to find its own legitimacy in the black community, this band would graft the Party's name upon itself, which we condemn. Firstly, the people in the New Black Panthers were never members of the Black Panther Party and have no legitimate claim on the Party's name. On the contrary, they would steal the names and pretend to walk in the footsteps of the Party's true heroes, such as Black Panther founder Huey P. Newton, George Jackson and Jonathan Jackson, Bunchy Carter, John Huggins, Fred Hampton, Mark Cark, and so many others who gave their very lives to the black liberation struggle under the Party's banner. Secondly, they denigrate the Party's name by promoting concepts absolutely counter to the revolutionary principles on which the Party was founded. Their alleged media assault on the Ku Klux Klan serves to incite hatred rather than resolve it. The Party's fundamental principle, as best articulated by the great revolutionary Ernesto "Che" Guevara, was: "A true revolutionary is guided by great feelings of love." The Black Panthers were never a group of angry young militants full of fury toward the "white establishment." The Party operated on love for black people, not hatred of white people. Furthermore, this group claims it would "teach" the black community about armed self-defense. The arrogance of this claim is overwhelmed by its reactionary nature. Blacks, especially in the South, have been armed in self-defense for a very long time; indeed, the spiritual parent of the Party itself was the Louisiana-based Deacons for Defense. However, the Party understood that the gun was not necessarily revolutionary, for the police and all other oppressive forces had guns. It was the ideology behind the gun that determined its nature. Because the Party believed that only the masses of people would make the revolution, the Party never presumed itself to be above the people. The Party considered itself a servant of the people and taught by example. Given massive black hunger, the Party provided free breakfast for children and other free food programs. In the absence of decent medical facilities in the black community, the Party operated free medical clinics. In the face of police brutality, the Party stood up and resisted. Considering the overwhelming number of blacks facing trials and long prison terms, the Party developed free legal aids and bussing-to-prison programs. The question the Foundation raises, then, is who are these people laying claim to the Party's history and name? Are they reactionary provocateurs, who would instigate activities counterproductive to the people's interests, causing mayhem and death? Are they entertainers, who would posture themselves before the media, and, according to numerous sources, with empty guns, to spin gold for themselves? Are they, given the history of their late-leader Khalid Muhammad, a group of anti-Semites like the very Ku Klux Klan they allegedly oppose? What is their agenda? Conditions for blacks in America today are worse than when the Black Panther Party was formed in 1966. Blacks in the main continue to live in poverty; disproportionate percentages of blacks die from AIDS and cancer, as the black infant mortality rate continues to be double that of whites. There is a desperate need for liberation agenda. The Black Panther Party unarguably set the example, espousing principles and a history that certainly should be embraced by all those still struggling for freedom. Rather than appropriating the Party's name, however, groups that purport to represent African Americans ought to follow the Party's true historical example. In the absence of such commitment, the Foundation denounces the usurpation of the Black Panther Party name by this questionable band of self-appointed leaders.
