REVISITING TIGER WOOD’S ARREST WHEN PARKED WHILE BLACK



REVISITING TIGER WOOD’S ARREST WHEN PARKED WHILE BLACK


I don't know much about breathalyzers but if Tiger gets a 0.00, that's zero, right?

And if Jack Nicklaus was found asleep with his car running, wouldn't the cops have just escorted him home and asked for an autograph?

Shouldn't being on the front page of two major NY newspapers mean something?

Shouldn’t you have to apologize to the world for doing something more than resting in your parked car because your back pain medicine is making you woozy?

Shouting violent epithets? Nope

Resisting arrest? No. Even the cops said that he was fully compliant which means that he was mannequin compliant!

Wife beating? No.

Dog killing? No.

Underage girl? No.

Being Black in america? Yes! Hence the 'I guess he know he Black now!' meme.

But what justification do these papers and media have for running this non story ad infinitum other than racism?

Guess their audience needed to see more Black men behaving badly - even if they have to pretend it's bad - to somehow justify the horrors that they see us go through on a daily.

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

ON REPARATIONS

Never banter with white folk about reparations. It’s like arguing with your boss about wages they haven’t paid you. The only acceptable answer, whether they can give it or not, is “Yeah… You right!” Anything less from them is pure toxicity.

Rigged Legal System

Search words: Rigged Legal System, Gauntlet of oppression, racial profiling throughout  Years ago on jury duty, I was asked to render a ‘fair and impartial’ judgement regarding a young Black man accused of possession on the Upper East Side. There were only two Black people on the jury, myself and another dude. After a very long time, we ended up finding the defendant guilty. That’s the end of the story but not the narrative. The twelve main things I came to realize: 1. Several Black potential jurors were citing a mantra about their unwillingness to participate in a prejudiced judicial system. It was my first time hearing it but should I be called again, I’ll google it and voice my objection in the same way. 2. The suspect was stopped for a broken taillight, but as his wife said when she examined their car at the station, the light was never broken. 3. The white judge, however, ruled that the bust was still legit even though he was clearly stopped for drivin...

WHOEVER CONTROLS THE MEDIA CONTROLS THE NARRATIVE

WHOEVER CONTROLS THE MEDIA CONTROLS THE NARRATIVE White cops NEVER leak to the press that they’re now investigating specific members (by name) of the Aryan Brotherhood. When it’s them, the investigation is ALWAYS ongoing. But when it’s us, they ‘leak’ that Sandra was ‘suicidal’, Cyntoia and Mike Brown and Marissa Alexander were ‘no Angels’, Korryn was ‘unstable’, King was a philanderer, Trayvon engaged in ground n pound because he watched ultimate fighting on tv (or how the media runs with his dad saying that the blood-curdling scream heard on the 911 call of a neighbor was NOT his son. The last time we heard our son give a piercing scream was when he was slightly colicky at 3months old!). Or it was leaked that grandma Eleanor Bumpers came at the armed and armored cops with a kitchen knife so they had to shoot during the no-knock raid on the wrong home. Or the leak that Sean Bell shot at cops first on eve before his wedding day. Or the leak that Tawana Brawley did...
