Riots in the USA

[MaxPower]

in other news, local blacks have taken great strides in lifting them selves up from under oppression, by defacing columbus statue.

In TT?

yesh... PoS.

Here yah go,

Wondering when these BLM folks decide to burn down churches for enslaving and encouraging the slavery of blacks for centuries.

“When the missionaries arrived, the Africans had the land and the missionaries had the Bible. They taught us how to pray with our eyes closed. When we opened them, they had the land and we had the Bible.” —

Jomo Kenyatta, First President of Kenya, Africa

The same group that is asking everyone to ignore George Floyds history -but seem unable to do the same for Columbus et al.

Malcolm X was a drug dealer-
MLK apparently was generous with his towtee.
Shaka Zulu was psychotically violent....he killed millions before any European people arrived.

Lets break down all those tributes as well.

Equality is just that.

Blunt, but direct to the point.

But give it time when it reaches the court and these BLM racist groups are unable to give a reason for their actions. That why i absolutely love how this is blowing up.

A fire don’t always burn in one direction.

It is all about socialisation.

[Miktay]

Miktay, that understandable, and is the expected course. But the thing is that whole thing is now chicken or egg scenario.
Ppl have a problem with police, so they protest. Some get destructive, so they send in police and they rile the protesters up with acts of violence, so protesters keep protesting. That's why I say they need to quit sending police and utilize the national guard to stop and discourage destructive behavior.

From what I'm seeing, the military is going to get involved sooner or later, and I suspect there may be an attempt at disarmament of the population and at least some talk about the suspension of the rights protected by the second amendment when that happens. That would be problematic at best.

Bro...police brutality iz one ting...but using isolated incidents of police brutality 2 justify burning and looting iz the pseudo logic of the outrage mob.

There are no good alternatives to defunding the police. But cultural Marxists like BLM and Antifa don’t use logic. They don’t think.

Mob rule iz chaos.

If the police are defunded who in their right mind will do bidnezz in those cities?

That iz what those who support chaos don’t understand. Chaos has consequences.

Here are a couple consequences never imagined by lunatic lefties.

Event To Liberate Seattle Goes Viral As Bikers Nationwide Vow To Remove Antifa Barricades

American patriots from across the country have vowed to ride, drive and run into Seattle from across the nation and liberate the city’s Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone from Antifa radicals who have blockaded themselves in the district.

[88sins]

I realize something.
Most people kinda getting the wrong idea when they hear about calls to abolish or defund the police.

It's not about having no police and zero law enforcement. The call to abolish the police is about starting over, first developing a national standard and code of conduct of what's allowed and what isn't, then firing everyone in all departments, could be done gradually in phases, and properly vetting and training candidates. That, and the clear cut guidelines about what actions are justifiable under qualified immunity is basically what most people want.
Those things while not totally unreasonable, will meet major resistance from both police and politicians.

Need to appeal to their audience man, black criminals. So they playing into the worse stereotype of black people not wanting any police.

Wow, this is seriously one of the best videos i remember seeing.

Where have these teachers gone?

The teacher in question was/is Jane Elliot and was on Jimmy Fallon recently.

Let an injun cop shoot a PNM ppl person , then it's all hell will break loose.

Remember when kenny Mohamed was CoP, PNM and their mob tried every angle to discredit him.

I feel is more about moving towards privatization of police. That's what the whole thing is about.

Son, it never "morphed" into that, there's a lot of strong evidence that it literally started out as exactly that.

I was trying to be diplomatic.

[paid_influencer]

it is a good question who came up with the slogan 'defund the police'. The slogan spread so fast with no discussion... you have to wonder if it was directed action masquerading as organic spread.

The result of 'defund the police' chanting is the city can restructure the department with no protest from the police union. The entire department gets scrapped and all retirement plans, pensions, benefits and entitlements, go poof with it. Officers that were working for 10 and 20 years get to be 'brand new' hires in the new organization.

Bad for the officers, but it is what the protesters (or whomever is dominating the social media feeds) want

It's also where feminism came from.

After the US civil war, white females had to do their own house work and raise kids. Even slaves was used to breast feed white kids.Over the years they started to B1tch and complain and thus feminism was born.

Time to remove that statue. It serves no purpose and need money to upkeep etc. I think that statue is just part of our need to feel connected to the wider world. What's the point of it?

It's literally spanish history and legacy. Why are we upkeeping a monument dedicated to spain's legacy and history?

Then change this country name from Trinidad to Zambutoo

[Blaze d Chalice]

Yeah man, we should also stop teaching Spanish in schools, and ban Pelau and sherry and repsol, change the capital to Laventille, and get rid of names like Port-of-Spain and San Fernando.

[Ben_spanna]

Why are we even making an issue of this? Let the great America sort out their own sh1t, heck they don’t even. Like to grant visas to us third world countries.
Leave them to their own destruction... and any fr11gg1ng idiots locally who wish to partake in their stupid protests.. lock them up or bury their stupid backsides 10 feet under.

Keep our nice little island free of the stupid Over senestive, overdemanding hypocrites that now plague their society.

This is true. A statue has a purpose. The purpose of that particular statue is abhorrent. It should be sold on the open market, to benefit the people it once oppressed.

I propose we replace it with a statue depicting corruption and an exposition of corruption. The purpose of the statue is to show what is hidden.

Clearly you are mixing up the two? What is taught about Columbus anyway? That he boarded a vessel and magically reached the "new world"? We don't recognise or research Columbus well enough to warrant paying any special homage to him?

Why are we praising him for exactly? I rather praise him for being an excellent navigator and "explorer" rather than just some "historical" figure. If we are respecting him because he "discovered" the new world then we are foolish. If we are are respecting him as a symbol of exploration and being courageous in braving uncharted waters then I have no problem with that.

The reality is we have always been quick to heap praise on our european counterparts whilst the average european/english person doesn't even know that their country was once a colonial power? It is never taught to their children and their schools.

Why are we always so eager to preserve what is essentially "their" history.

Statues and monuments were useful at a time to act as living history and tell a story. That was useful at a time when history could have been erased via book burnings or even invasions/genocides. That is why invading armies always attacked statues to destory the history. But now the history is out there and it is digitised.

Destroying or removing the statue is not going to make ppl forget abt Columbus within a couple of generations. The history is there on the internet. Why spend money to build or honour the memory of a man who was here over 500 years ago? I think our funds and public spaces could be put to better use.

[MaxPower]

So why they cant just take the good from Columbus like they what they doing with Floyd?

[zoom rader]

Men forget Hugh Francis statue/plack.

Rspann tell them the story nah

I don't think that's true at all. Every European country teaches their glorious history, their colonies etc. I've seen many speak about it, maybe it was white washed to remove the atrocities but they are very aware of their colonies.

Secondly, imagine I had to learn from a Latvian that Tobago was once their colony. Lots of UK kids all know about Trinidad from their school days when they learned about their colonies. Doubt that's been removed. Though it's such a tiny ass part of their history.
