" white people needed a good reason to hate Michael Vick"

[khaladeen1]

I support the brother 200% because he is a brother, but one thing that I am afraid of is that our own syndicates and talk show personalities are making too many jokes about the Mike Vick Situation- We dont want him to be persecuted any harder than any other celebrity that has made a mistake or two in their life- But on that same note, there is nothing funny about what Michael vick did- it is not an all access card to give away to the next nigga that thinks he can make a name for himself by copying Mike Vick- Continuous laughter about the situation makes us appear childish and undeveloped as a people, We talk about revolution all day- But the only true way to overcome the whiteman and this system set up against us- is to show that we are just as competant, and sensible to issues of humanity just like he is- Other words, we have to be better-
While we hold our head up in total Pride, We have be better- (Period)

Because he's black don't automatically mean he's supported I would really like for it to be that way BUT...BUT I also think what he did was stupid(I'm no animal lover)Its so many other MEANINGFUL things he could have did besides this, hopefully this confused brotha will learn a lesson from it after whitey finish making an example out of his ass(shaking head)

I would love to support the brother. But the simple fact is that he should have known and done better. It's time for the community to start holding so called role models accountable. In my humble opinion, we can't advance by supporting those who break laws and do wrong.

I don't know about all this you say sista because the law since its inception has been set up to destroy and kill black folx. Suppose Harriet Tubman / Runaway slaves or MLK or the BPP fighting police brutality or Rosa Parks or Assata Shakur etc,etc,etc. would have followed the Law.So, in my humble opinion,we can't advance by supporting those who make laws and do wrong.
Currently the United Snakes of Amerikkka is committing genocide, they are the most notorious terrorist and torturers history has ever known, ain't no civil liberties left and all this is done under the guise of "rule of law".Please let us not forget that it is their laws that you suggest we follow that has 21st century slavery / PIC in full affect. White people created dog fighting, it's a sport in the eyes of many--no more barbaric than two men beating each others brains out in the ring. But what I think is most is, the only reason that Black people would even debate whether Vick is a criminal vs a victim of white supremacy is because they are themselves victims of white media propaganda and yet another case of Black folx being co-opted into participating in the character assassination of a Blackman...For some B.S.
Now for the record, I breed pit bulls and don't fight them because they are my family, but that has nothing to do with the price of tea in China when it comes to white media hypocrisy.

MY SUGGESTION,TURN OFF THE RADIO AND TV (OUTSIDE OF REAL EDUCATION) FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS.
IF YOU'RE LIKE MOST, ONCE YOU DO THAT YA'LL NEVER GO BACK.MAINSTREAM MEDIA, PRINT AND DIGITAL,ARE THE MAINTAINERS, UPHOLDER AND PROPAGATERS OF THE WHITE SUPREMACY/RACISM CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK.

Peace bruh, my post was unclear. When I speak of law, I speak of law that governs us all and directs us to live in harmony with all of the Creator's creatures.

I would love to support Vick, as I stated earlier, because there's no doubt in my mind that he is being used to make a point. The fact that yt created dogfighting is, I think, even more reason to be wary of it (sport or not). I am not in support of Vick being punished by yt but I am in support of the community holding him accountable if they think that his actions are absurd (by not supporting him just because he's Black). That is what I should have expressed in my earlier post.

Everything that we do as black Americans comes from America- the way we dress, interact with each other, how we entertain ourselves, how we raise our families- We are a stolen away nation, living on a borrowed culture-
So yes, I think there is a tremendous amount of confusion amongst our people
dog fighting had to have evolved from Europe - Being that as Barbaric as it is the Europeans didnt awake from its so called dark ages for centuries, - Meanwhile on the otherside of the Map- Africans where already building houses, and universities, and great buildings-
We will change the game, when we start to think as Kings again, and not Americans!!!!

Michael Vick: criminal or victim?

[True sistas turn me on]

These people been hunting for years. the fast food industry kills millions of animals a year by hitting them in the head with a sledgehammer, so I cant trip off Vick. Most of the people complaining then go home and eat a steak.

I wouldn't put it pass them............

But seriously I figured it was about getting somebody he should've known better and he was going to take the fall.

Hopefully he comes out of this smarter maybe he'll get smart in prison if anything because they want to see him locked down like the rest of us. Maybe he'll take something from it other than a thug rep..
