I would add at the beginning of that list that they need to stop listening to hate-filled, violent, angry rap, and stop worshipping and wanting to be a rapper/gangsta.

The people who think what music you listen to has no effect on that person are’nuts. You listen to that angry, hate filled,’violent stuff most of your waking time it’s going to have a negative effect on your perspective of life and ‘other people.

You don’t need to add it. That is the core of thug life. It was my Step #1.

Dear Jabber,

A grand jury and the black Secretary of the Dept. of Justice could find NO wrong doing in the case where a cop defended himself from a punk who reached for LEO's weapon.

You want to celebrate the riots that have shut down their commerce and left your mindless rioting welfare hatchery with less? Guess will be seeing you in Baltimore, also.

So when are you going to spend your own money to make Ferguson whole? And when are you going to speak about the skyrocketing murders by blacks on blacks in Ferguson and Detroit and Chicago and Philly and St. Louis, et al?

Sincerely,
Fed Up With You Racists
Ps. ALL lives matter, unless you're a thug. Oops, micro-aggression.

There are all sorts of other instances in this article that generate unintended chuckles. How about this one: “Courage is required in order to speak out in support of “Black Lives Matter.” Well then, I guess it really took a lot of courage to sneak out in the middle of the night to spray paint such a profound ideal on statues and memorials dedicated to Civil War soldiers.

Or I guess there is not a lot of that sort of courage showing in Chicago, concerning the routine carnage that goes on there (after all, we are told to be angry with the NRA instead).

Hey Karim! I know we’ve probably stopped paying attention to you. But if black lives matter so much,perhaps you should go to Chicago, where the locals gleefully dub it Chiraq!

Just don’t expect them to think your life matters if you’re wearing the wrong color or driving something they may want.

LOL! Like the birthing scene in the Naked Gun.

“It’s a boy, Frank!” “Yeah, I know!!”

When are these Black Supremists going to start donning Black Robes and Hoods and burning Crescents on the lawns of white interlopers?

Perhaps if Kareem wants more attention he should follow in a fellow athlete named Bruce Jenner’s high heeled footsteps?

I've said it countless times. The liberals are just blind if they think that negative media doesn't affect people's mindset. There is a reason that Madison Avenue (promotion and advertising companies) is a multi-billion dollar business. They know that a repeated message sinks into our conscience and sub-conscience. If not, you wouldn't see any ads anywhere.

When blacks stop killing blacks at a rapid rate then and only then will I concern myself about “black lives.”
