8 dead among 52 shot across Chicago over weekend

It is time to advocate for the National Guard to be deployed on Chicago Streets. The influx of drugs in the black community since the 1970′s and the War on Drugs has created a civil war in black working class communities. The war is between those who embrace the individualistic, material uniquely American trait of “imma get mine” no matter what the cost to the community and those who are simply want to live a safe, economically stable life. What would happen if black women who have lost their children to violence and addiction to protest like Chile’s mothers of the Plaza de Mayo, who protested the brutal practices of Chilean dictator, Augusto Pinochet every day from between 1976 and 1983. If this bloodshed continues native born black Americans will go to way of our Native American brothers and sisters.

This is crazy! We have problems with our black communities across the country. Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, Oakland, etc etc. Crime, Drugs, Gang Violence, Murders, etc plauge our communities at extremely high rates, but your only solution is to bring in the Nation Guard? That cant be an actual solution. It has to be a joke. You feel that the only way to fix the problem is to bring in the Police State to fix the “WILD NIGGAS” runnning around. If you want to do that with Chicago you’ll have to go across the country doing the same thing. Wouldnt it make more sense to try and fix the MINDS of the kids out here in these streets thats living these destructive lifestyles? The global media system, the school system, the prison industrial system, our communities and their lack of resources especially when compared to predominately white neighborhoods, all of these play a factor in how so many black men and women are living their lives. Take the media for example. You have music and music videos pushing negative images on a constant basis to children who havent even made it to middle school yet. The media makes tattoos, baggy clothes, gang life, cars and big rims and everything else material appealing, so you end up with boys 15, 16, 17 and older doing crimes to try and get what they’re seeing in a music video. We have tv shows and movies that are played continuously on networks with a prodomiately black audience promoting homosexuality, so when 13 and 14 year old girls are kissing on street corners or black male teens are wearing women’s clothes, thats not surprising. And this is just a small sample of the affects the media has on our youth, and adults. But, instead of trying to fix these problems, lets just bring in the National Guard to control the “WILD NIGGAS”, similar to how they did us back during the Jim Crow era. That’s past idiotic. Our problems are like a cancer. You cant defeat cancer by killing all the cells around the tumor, you have to go straight to the problem and comfront it head on. Too many UPITY NEGROES like to look down on what they see as “the rest of the black people” who havent made it to their social or economic status, and just leave them to the wolves. There is a reason our youth are the way they are today. A reason why our next generation is currently being brainwashed by the media system so that the cycle of destruction can be continued 15 years from now. But instead of looking at the reason, and fixing the reason, lets bring in the cops like we are a bunch of dogs in the street that need to be rounded up. What will you do in 15 years when the problem is even worse than it is now? Bring in the Guards again? Stupidity in its RAWEST form. Wakeup Black People!
