Republicans in Congress are eager for Trump to expand his use of the military on US soil

I think some of the whites here need to recognize some inconvenient truths.

“What white Americans have never fully understood but what the Negro can never forget--is that white society is deeply implicated in the ghetto. White institutions created it, white institutions maintain it, and white society condones it. It is time now to turn with all the purpose at our command to the major unfinished business of this nation. It is time to adopt strategies for action that will produce quick and visible progress. It is time to make good the promises of American democracy to all citizens-urban and rural, white and black, Spanish-surname, American Indian, and every minority group.”
Kerner Commission

“One of the conclusions of the Kerner Report was that white racism was at work, was the cause of the upsets and the uprisings that we had. In fact, the report stated that white society created it, perpetuates it, and sustains it.”
Nathaniel Jones, Assistant General Counsel, Kerner Commission

Whites have a history of criminal behavior that started at the very beginning of this country. Whites have elected numerous criminals to make laws in this country. Whites organized crime and made it a corporate business.

Whites control the manufacturing, shipment, and distribution of drugs in this country. Whites made two of the most destructive drugs legal, creating millions of addicted citizens. I am talking about alcohol and nicotine. Whites have embezzled and scammed people out of trillions of dollars in the years America has been a country. Whites control the manufacturing, shipping, sales, and distribution of deadly weapons in this country.

So it's time whites stopped lecturing everybody else who they excluded from opportunity for 200 years on how they should do things.
You know what, IM2? That narrative would ring true if it wasn't for one VERY inconvenient fact! Cities are no longer run by whites. They're run by blacks and have been for quite some time and where blacks control government? There is just as much embezzlement and scamming of the people as there ever was when whites controlled those same cities if not more! Should I even waste my time regaling the board with black leaders abusing their positions for personal gain? It's rather obvious that the problem isn't "racism"! The problem is that power corrupts.
 
The easy money of drugs and crime, hmmm. How many of these kids have you talked to? How many of these kids do you know personally? Both of my kids attended public school and went on to college and have rec'd degrees, many of my nieces and nephews have done the same, many of my friend's children have done the same. Who keeps the drugs in these neigborhoods? Now remember they don't own any poppy fields, they don't own any boats, then don't go down to the border and pick up the drugs, so how do they get them? Who puts the guns in the neighborhoods? There are no black gun manufacturers in the neighborhood, so how do they access these guns so easily?
For quite a few years I resided in Dorchester, Massachusetts, Super! Not the nicest of neighborhoods. I think you know how bad it is in places like that. Are there still good public schools? Of course but let's be honest here...most of them are NOT in neighborhoods like Dorchester!

Schools in predominantly black neighborhoods have been under funded since the end of slavery.

I taught high school history for 3 years after college...the biggest issue in that school system wasn't money to support the schools (and it was an impoverished former mill town who's mills had all closed) the biggest issue was parents not stressing the importance of an education. We had a family of Vietnamese boat people who had been sponsored by one of the local churches. All of the kids in that family excelled in class because their parents expected nothing less. They not only were extremely poor...they had to learn English as they went. So why does THAT family excel? What do they have that a poor black family doesn't have? I think it's racist to claim that blacks haven't gotten enough help. The issue obviously isn't money.
 
Newsflash.....everyone (with the exception of those born with silver spoons in their mouths) starts at the bottom at some lame job. Get those kids to STAY IN SCHOOL AND ACTUALLY PAY ATTENTION AND LEARN, instead of dropping out in grade school and stealing and buying and selling illegal drugs.
I mowed lawns as a kid to bring in money to the household. When I was in high school, I worked as a dishwasher in a Chinese restaurant. On completing high school, I joined the military as the draft was on. After serving one tour, I got out and did miscellaneous low-end jobs (post hole digging, fence painting, furniture moving, fiberglass factory work, beer joint bartender, cab driving, bag machine repair), then went back to the military and made it a career.
These clowns that claim they can't get jobs just have to trot on over to a military recruiting office, join up and they will learn discipline and responsibility and get paid doing it and if they get into a technical field in the military, it can apply to the outside as well.

Most of those clowns are not eligible because:

A) they have physical issues making them ineligible, mostly just being overweight
B) they have a history of ADHD
C) they have behavioral issues
D) they are not academically qualified. no high school diploma or low test scores on the ASVAB.
E) they have a history of drug abuse other than marijuana.
F) they have been arrested for a felony of some sort.
 
Oh bullshit, Super...the truancy rate for young blacks in Washington DC is off the charts. They're not going to school because they like the easy money of drugs and crime. Of course the left has turned our public schools in liberal cities into a joke. The kids don't get an education if they DO go to school, thanks to the teacher's unions so I guess it's understandable why they don't bother to show up!
If they are never there, why do you blame unions?
 
Maybe they're eager because democrats have done a shit job in the areas they hold authority. Personally if I was stuck in such an area where democrats selectively enforce the law, I would be happy to have some real form of protection around.

I blame the teacher's unions for caring more about teachers than about educating kids. If Covid taught us anything...it taught us that the teacher's unions did not care if keeping classes closed messed up kids.

Only if you don't believe that Blue Plantation Sanctuary cities are allowing high crime and defying Federal Laws and especially the deportation of illegal aliens.
DSA Leftists are on the wrong side of the issue.

There are n blue plantation sanctuary cities and there are small red mid-sized cites nd rural towns tht are far less safe. Republicans run in the municipal elections in these cities. If what they proposed was the answer, they would win. So once again, we see the crux of the problem-Republicans can't take responsibility for the fact that their ideas suck, which is why they lose in cities, and blame Democrats for everything wrong. But you would think that if what Republicans had for policies were so great, the entire country wouldn't have faced what we have because of the past 2 times Repubicans controlled the federal government.

Republicans have done no better.

There are all kinds of cities run by whites. The majority in fact.

Look white man, the root cause of the problems blacks face is white racism. Mayors don't make federal law, and cities are required to follow federal law and policy. Whites run various agencies in cities, whites sit on city councils, whites control the financial institutions of every major city, and in fact every city or town, and whites own businesses that employ. So what you need to do is stop trying to argue with someone who has faced the racism those like you produce while simultaneously denying it's a problem.

OK...let's examine that theory...
New York...black Mayor. Chicago...black Mayor. LA...black Mayor. DC...black Mayor. Atlanta...black Mayor. New Orleans...black Mayor. Detroit...black Mayor. Baltimore...black Mayor. Charlotte...black Mayor. San Francisco...black Mayor. Houston...black Mayor. Omaha...black Mayor. Savannah...black Mayor. OMG! Boston has an Asian Mayor!!! They MUST be racist!

I guess they didn't get the memo that Mayors have to follow Federal law, IM2. You know...that whole "Sanctuary City" thing? That whole...we're NOT going to obey Federal laws?

That's why it's called a teachers' union and not a kids' union. Teachers have a union for them as no one else will advocate for them. They have to do it themselves!

Do the Teamster's unions complain that their trucks are not safe and don't get good mileage out of their diesel engines?

Do the United Mine Workers care how the coal in your powerplant heats the water to make steam?
 
Right, create opportunities for everyone and there will be no need for them to commit crimes.
With the illegals leaving there are plenty of jobs out in the countryside. lol. Or is it too demeaning?? I've picked tobacco by hand when I wanted a job. Not good enough for you urban snoots?

The teacher's unions pump millions upon millions of dollars into the campaigns of liberal politicians and in return those liberal politicians give them whatever the heck they want. THOSE are the teacher's unions "advocates"! It's a you scratch my back...I'll give you millions and indoctrinate the young for you as a bonus, advocacy.

Schools in predominantly black neighborhoods have been under funded since the end of slavery.
President Trump made permanent a commitment of $255 million in annual funding for Historically Black Colleges and Universities, and he increased funding for the Federal Pell Grant program by signing the FUTURE Act. In 2020, President Trump created the 1776 Commission, ensuring that every American child learns that they live in the greatest, most exceptional Nation in the history of the world.


He's taking money OFF the ****** ones. lol

When your argument boils down to you basically saying "My side sucks as equally as much as the other does" than maybe you should rethink who you support.

Greg
Go tell that bullshit to somebody else, I have never picked cotton and have never CUT tobacco, but pretty much anything else I have picked, see black folks used to do this up until about the mid to late 70s.

I don't need to follow anything, we know who keeps this flowing into the black communities.
