COMMONSENSE REALLY, REALLY IS A SUPERPOWER




COMMONSENSE REALLY, REALLY IS A SUPERPOWER


Occam’s razor and Tim’s law (that’s me) are just fancy ways of saying, ‘No matter how appalling the postulate, use your commonsense’.

Since 500,000 US kids are trafficked in CHILD rape rings each year and NY police departments (plural) are STILL under investigation for running CHILD rape rings

and police CHIEFS (who run their departments) are regularly caught producing (supplying the kids) rather than just soliciting (there is a big difference), yet are constantly referred by the media as lone wolves

and 80% of kids trafficked start in CPS or foster care where Tim’s law makes even that horrifying stat far, far worse,

then the only commonsense solution you can come to is that police are doing the bulk of the trafficking.

Who else has the numbers and the authority to whisk away that many kids off the streets and from their parents and caregivers?

They are invisible because our conditioning allows them to hide in plain sight. When they are caught red handed handcuffing and detaining and ‘resettling’ our CHILDREN,

the thought of CHILD trafficking NEVER comes to mind with those tasked with ‘serving and protecting’, even in the most critical of minds.

But we have to look past the ingrained narratives to get at the obvious truth.

Fire ALL of the white cops from elsewheres!

A technique for breaking through denial is first applying commonsense where denial is weakest or has been proven false.

If altar boys are repeatedly raped in church, then it’s priests, nuns or admin and not Joe, waiting with a van on the corner.

And if we Black folk (along with our family members and neighbors) are inordinately dying from this virus after being sent away from hospitals 3 and 4 times?

We know how their narrative spins it because it’s blasted 24/7 but what does your commonsense tell you? C’mon, think!

If we’re constantly in wars ‘over there’ to secure our ‘safety’ then who are the warmongers?

If the most dangerous place for a woman or girl is in the home and it’s mandated shelter, what’s going to happen?

If our CHILDREN are repeatedly hashtagged by white cops from elsewheres, then what’s the commonsense thing to do?!? I mean we did try the bodycam solution and all we got was a birdseye view of their killing, so...

And there’s so much more we could change for the best, but if we cannot even grasp these basic truths...

It’s like there’s some sort of spell preventing folk from seeing the obvious. Either we break the spell or the spell breaks us.

Can’t wait ‘til we have our own media. Everything changes.

WE DEAL WITH RACISM ON ALL FRONTS

WE DEAL WITH RACISM ON ALL FRONTS We deal with systemic racism on all fronts. We mentor; we start programs to protect our kids; we fire ALL of the white cops from elsewheres patrolling and brutalizing Black spaces who funnel in the drugs and the guns with impunity then lock up our kids for having (or using) them. And where do kids get guns for drive-bys? (Rhetorical) And do an inordinate amount of crimes occur in Black spaces in Baltimore and Detroit and L.A. as opposed to NY because Black folk in our city have more character and higher morals? (Also rhetorical) It’s because cops are not allowed to pump these things in here! We do have CHILD rape rings here which rival Florida, Texas and possibly even California (California is a dense, big state). We need to fire ALL of the white cops from elsewheres patrolling and brutalizing Black spaces! And regarding the white people and the Black folk who worship them who aid systemic racism through complicity, ignorance and arrog...

REPENTANCE IS THEIR ONLY CURE

I remember Sean Bell hashtagged the night before his wedding  and how NYPD is probably STILL looking the bullet they claimed he fired. And Amadou Diallo hashtagged while entering his own apt where NYPD claimed to have mistaken a wallet for a gun. While white criminals and thugs who do fire guns at their bachelor party,  brandish guns at police while entering their own homes, and shoot up High Schools and Churches make it to prison alive, unharmed and well fed. Reason #41 for the white gaze ban: They spent decades denying the disparity then when the proof became incontrovertible, they said,  ‘Oh well’ while continuing to post puppies and kittens and what they had for brunch. It’s time we FIRE ALL OF THE WHITE COPS FROM ELSEWHERES  and stop expecting backup from folk who have ALWAYS been conditioned to deny our humanity in the first place! It’s like there’s some sort of spell preventing folk from seeing the obvious. Either we break the spell or the spell breaks us. Can...

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PERSUASION AND CONVICTION

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PERSUASION AND CONVICTION Decades ago, in my teens, my oldest brother and I had a talk where I said, “Can you believe that they’re having another gay pride parade?” He told me that he participated in a gay pride parade. Then we just stared at one another - and because many don’t know how to communicate without language, I will translate: Me: (But you’re not gay) Him: (True, but our struggle is their struggle and theirs is ours) Me: (Hmmm. Now I have to rethink everything because this is my brother whom I love challenging my core beliefs). I was persuaded that day. Today, my brother is long dead but I’m still reposting. That’s called CONVICTION.
