We're considered depraved, because we, rant & rave, about, unjust ways.
This stuff is just, so unjust & we just, want equality, of the highest quality.
We live in a society, that praises notoriety, where boys dont grow into men, they, never been taught how to be.
Responsible.
And while not trying to cast blame, its a shame, but fathers have been stripped from their families since America came, into existence.
Now is not the time for indifference.
Im not bringing up how blacks were tarred, raped or the lynchings.
But the fact that the pyshcological effects from the past actions are still impacting, many Americans whose ancestors were African.
Ponder that.

Quiet Riots Do Exist
So they don't believe that quiet riots are real?
Maybe that's because they never cared about how we feel.
They just assume, but our lawns aren't perfectly groomed.
No sub divisions or 2 car garages.
We reside in, low income, HUD apartments.
Gentrification is what we're facin', pushed over to the margin.
Even those who are called to protect & serve abuse us, just look at the video I posted of the sergeant.
Caution! Because these feelings have been sittin' & boiling for some time now.
You can't understand what it's like on my side of town.
You would NEVER understand what it's like in the skin I'm in.
And we can NEVER reconcile if you only justify or conceal your sin.
Wrongs have been committed and we get it, it wasn't you that did it.
But you add insult to injury every time you try & twist it.
You open up old wounds with new knives.
I'm convinced, it's not inside you, that truth lies.
And I know it's 2 sides, to every coin.
But the fact that you would try n justify or rebuttal, instead of listening, trying to understand & take heed, just proves my point.

Police Officers Abuse of Power by EXCESSIVE Use of Force
Here is a clear example of a cop who abuses his power. With aggression like this I'm sure it's not his first use of "force"! Hopefully he will be held accountable for his actions.

Why I'm Voting for Obama
First off let me start by saying I AM NOT a Democrat. No more than I am a Republican. Actually for the longest time I've been opposed to politics and voting for many personal reasons that I will not indulge in right now. This will actually be my first election that I've voted in and I wouldn't be surprised if it was my last. So I assume you are wondering why I'm even voting in this election at all. Here's why.
Frankly put, I am disgusted with the arrogance & hatred that I see come from the republicans. I'm sure that would be refuted by those gung ho conservatives who actually inspired me to write this blog, but who cares. From calling Obama the welfare president to the plantation president, both which to me being a black man are VERY racist and degrading terms.
I've spent YEARS around middle class, suburban white families as well as inner city poverty stricken minorities and one thing's for sure when people think of those "lazy ass" welfare recipients, a lot of that 47% that Romney spoke of, they picture black people (for the most part, anyway). Now don't get me twisted, I think that the conservative republicans are more concerned with the green then the color of your skin. Although racism is a REAL problem in America and the world abroad, the real battle is rich vs. poor. And that's apart of the arrogance I hate!
Another thing that I've seen which infuriates me is the pharisee like dealings of the conservatives who would love for you to believe God is a Republican. HE's NOT!!! They act like they are God's chosen people & if you don't side with them you are an enemy of God. What's more troubling is how they try to use God & the Bible to justify their insensitivities, their atrocities, their indifference & apathy. They (christian conservatives) are quick to tell you to vote (republically) but won't stand up for the oppressed, won't speak out against racism, police brutality or their own sins towards others.
They try to force their views on a country that doesn't feel or believe the same as them. What is this, Saudia Arabia? I thought God was concerned with hearts being changed. It is not their job to force women to not be able to get abortions. It's the woman's choice, and whatever her action she will suffer the consequences. Frankly put, the conservative "christians" are not voting based off "christian" values and/or the Bible. If so, how do you vote for one who is apart of what you strongly believe is a cult! By picking the lesser of two evils, right? If that was the case why not just not vote at all? Because at the end of the day they are Republicans, & that's all they care about. Regardless of if Obama was the better man or not, they would still vote Republican. It's not about God with them, that's just an excuse.
Many will say MLK Jr was a republican but according to what I've read on him he was neither. He voted for whoever he thought the better man was, whether Democrat or Republican. (Check his wikipedia for more info.)
These are only a few reasons of why I choose to take a stand with President Obama. I will stand with him against a common enemy. I am part of that 47% that Romney spoke about. That statement was a direct attack on me & my family. I am one who has been looked down upon because I'm a commoner. And although I know it's not much I could do, I will take a stand and do what little I can.
That's why I'm voting for President Obama!
