Albany Police: SWAT Used Poor Black Neighborhood For Training Because It’s ‘Realistic’

[fr33]

lol I tweeted the link to @REALBROTHER0003 on twitter because all he does is call people racist. Maybe he'll spread it to the black panther communities.

bleh it just devolved into him calling me a racist. What an idiot. Nobody with a brain calls me a racist. They can call me plenty of other things but not that.

Not having the proper progressive mindset is de facto evidence of racism.

You are reported.

I think I saw you responding to that. You sent the link and he called you racist? Sounds like a troll. I wonder if he's even really black.

You don't think the disproportionate representation of minorities in prison might be because the justice system is systemically biased against the poor?

No I don't, I think that's right up there with "poverty causes crime".

Im feeling like the only conditioning going on is conditioning people to believe that everything is a "drill". Not so much conditioning to accept assaults on citizens by military but instead to condition people to accept that every time they see this sort of stuff that it is a "drill". It won't always be a "drill" but that's a great way to reduce scrutiny.

pff! They sold their own people. And so did jews. We've all been victims and perpetrators, so that dog won't hunt.

So slavery is okay? We shouldn't expect any blowback?

Who owned the slave ships, I wonder?

 

[amy31416]

Who owned the slave ships, I wonder?

People who are dead now.

Well, that's logical. Blacks commit a disproportionate amount of crime, so it stands to reason that would be a good place to train. If blacks don't like it, maybe they should put forth the effort to reduce the crime of their people.

Ummm. Not the same. Not even CLOSE to the same.

Sure, I don't disagree that blacks commit more crimes, but that does not give the police the go-ahead to basically raid a neighborhood parimilitary style for "training".

 

[sirgonzo420]

People who are dead now.

So are the (pre-14th amendment) slaves!

Anyway, it was the banksters who owned the slave ships. Their descendants are the banksters today.

No. What some folks forget is the fact that many blacks like it in prison. They deliberately commit crimes to get put back in. They prefer a controlled environment. Then, they blame 'racism' for it.

That was New Orleans after Katrina, BTW.

No water, no food, no fuel, no evacuations for displaced folks...

But plenty for displays of state power.

I'm relieved that's a picture of New Orleans after Katrina. When I first saw the picture I had a hard time believing the streets could be so littered with trash and so many people just standing around.

Yep. And the slaves descendants are African Americans and some of us white people are the descendants of slave owners. Perhaps the banksters wouldn't have been in the slave business if there was no market for it.

 

[angelatc]

Maybe we (our ancestors) shouldn't have bought and used slaves. It stands to reason that we are paying the price for our forefathers sins.

Nonsense. Nobody alive today was born into slavery. And I'm not sure we're paying the price - seems they're the ones stuck in perpetual non-motion.

Mmmmhmmm. "Many?" I don't think so.

In regards to people who intentionally go to prison--I'm sure there are some black people who do so. However, the only person I have personal experience with was some punk white kid who was high on something wandering about in my neighborhood looking for a confrontation. He got one when he kicked all my trash cans into the street. My dog and I went out to have a little chat and after threatening to "piss on my front stoop" and my subsequent threat to let my dog loose, he was begging me to call the cops...I eventually did--he just needed a place to sleep, apparently.

He was quite white. Looked like a suburbanite.

Oh, and lol at your blatant trolling.

Would it have ever happened if our white ancestors had the goddamned sense to not own slaves? No. Do you have a point? Of course, but there are long-term ramifications to what happened. Everything from gun control to welfare to political correctness. If we ignore part of it then there's never going to be a solution.

I see you failed to mention the jews and blacks who were also responsible for the slave trade. Convenient omission, huh?

 

[phill4paul]

The next neighborhood.

Eventually they will find people somewhere that will respond like American's and the training will be over.

The state runs a "beta test" on the black community prior to rolling anything out for the "general population".

The only increasing threat is YOU!

Violent crime and cop killings are at historic lows, in some states, the lowest ever recorded, since statistics have been kept.

The reality is an increasing docile, compliant and subservient population is being abused and suffers at increasing amounts of state inflicted violence against the people.

Not really much more to say......

Please, go on with the race debate when the real beast is staring you in the face.

No. It's just that Jews are white people, for the most part. Of course blacks are also responsible for selling people in the first place--but would they have sold them if there was no market?

Trying to change the subject much?

This never would have happened if our (mostly) white forefathers had the integrity to NOT contribute to this. Take the higher moral ground and you'll always be better off long-term.
