How do looters really view themselves?

Posted on 08/18/2014 7:51:52 AM PDT by MNDude

Time and time again, we seem to be presented with a complete disconnect with how violent black youths present themselves and what is real.

Trayvon Martin, we presented as a young moral boy who was afraid for his life while Michael Brown as a gentle giant--both with bright college futures ahead of them.

Regardless of what positive virtues they may have had, it's pretty clear that neither strived to be gentle or striving for educational excellence. It seems that both fully embraced the black violent gang culture and this culture embraced them back. If either of these two were anything like the images presented of them, I'm pretty sure they would be greatly rejected by their peers. It seems to be important for young black men to present the image of being as tough, anti-law, and as violent as possible. Yet, whenever there is a potential white vs. black incident, they wish everyone to believe the exact opposite. In fact, they are extremely offended if you do not believe that Trayvon was a weak and frightened child. They are angry if you do not believe Michael Brown was not a scholarly saint. They are filled with so much passion that at that moment, they themselves believe these presentations to be true!

So my question is how do the violent inner city youths really view themselves?

Do they simultaneously view themselves as violent tough gangstas and gentle doves?

How do they really want the rest of society to view them?

As kind and harmless citizens or a dangerous force to be reckoned with?

If it's so important to be viewed the way they present Trayvon and Michael, then why do they go out of their way to protest with violence?

Your thoughts?

In ghetto culture, the worst thing you can do is to “diss” or disrespect someone.

In the ghetto culture of the urban Parasite Class, one cannot earn respect, because nothing respectable is done. Thus, the urban Parasites demand (at gunpoint) the trappings of respect, and lash out violently when denied such. It's all they can do within that cultural framework. Honest work ... building, growing, making ... are largely unknown. Self respect, and respect for others can only be earned; respect cannot be simply demanded.

I think you are right. We are over analyzing all of this. This incident is just an excuse to go out and start a riot, among those who are inclined to violence anyway.

Yep, they have got to have the latest bling and all the stuff in stores they don’t feel they should buy, they should steal instead. Yes, there is some sense of entitlement there isn’t there?

The Democrat Party and its Black Slavers teach urban youth the White man & the White man's system is racist and keep the Black man down. ...all victims of a White Society.

They are taught education & achievement are white values.

No justice, no peace.

Darren Wilson needs to be summarily arrested and lynched, or we will throw a hissy fit and steal or burn everthing in sight.

Have any of the “men” pictured in that graphic ever actually built anything, made anything, done anything truly valuable?

IMO, looters aren’t capable for any kind of positive reflection. They must lacks any conscience to engage in such an activity to me.

Make NO mistake. They are being taught this behavior by their churches, parent(s) and political leaders. This is a LEARNED and planned reflex. The race hustlers like Jackson and Sharpton keep the kettle boiling while ‘pastors’ like Obama’s holy man preach communist propaganda and death to whitey. This is not new stuff. It is just over the top since Obama, Holder and that gang came to power. It is part of their plan to foment division in the land to benefit their desire to subvert the Constitution and take over with a dictatorial government.

They are a tribe of sociopaths. They don’t really “care” about anything or anyone, what they care about is how to make each person view them in a way that benefits them the most.

This whole thing is disturbing and makes one wonder if our former society is too far gone to be saved.

Challenged minority communities go ballistic when the police come in and "over-react" to criminal behavior. They want people who understand them doing the policing. They're more down on the snitches than they are on the criminals.

But what happens when a half dozen women are found murdered or there are several shootings in an hour or when all businesses leave? Why, they blame the police for letting it get out of hand.

And this situation about black communities wanting more black police? Unless things have changed, most qualified black teachers, police, fire, utility workers, postal workers etc don't choose to work in those neighborhoods if they can get a job somewhere else.

Until the race baiters and other racial complainers are kicked off the stage, nothing can improve.

Mirrors by their very nature are limited by the perception of the one looking into it. We all suffer from that limitation. Until we can look beyond mirrors is there any hope of finding the truth about who we are and what we should become.

The writer George Gilder had it right: the current African-American culture in the inner cities have effectively regressed to the way other mammals live when they live in packs. And it's a not very pleasant life with a lot of violence.

In ghetto culture, the worst thing you can do is to “diss” or disrespect someone. Response to being dissed in ghetto culture means a response with violence.

My term for this is the honor culture. It is widely seen in poor neighborhoods in the US and, internationally, in many nations, especially in the ME. Hence the term "honor killings". I believe that an honor culture is the most primitive large societal arrangement there is. The next step down is tribalism, and at the bottom is the jungle.

It is a system of beliefs, and those beliefs need to broken if this type of thing is ever going to end.

They view themselves as victims of evil whitey so that anything they do to whitey is justified. They have been fed this line of malarkey for decades.
