    The fact and the matter is that Black folks every week kill more Black people than cops do and I am not seeing or hearing anything about them here. Negroes in NY are bugged out their minds killing anyone in their paths with no exceptions. Yes what these crackas did are evil, we have a much bigger problem that . The self-hatred in the Black community is really ravaging our community in all aspect of life. As it is written in the Holy bible "f a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.(Mark 3:24)" we have to start to love ourselves first and stand together before we can go talk and fight against what our enemies are doing to us.

    What is there to say? It's witnessing a lynching.. a firing squad. The feeling is mournful... absolute.. despair.. there is nothing to say.. nothing that would do justice.. or return Mr. Hall amongst the living. This is just pain.. powerlessness.. followed by disgust.. with them.. with us.. and shame as our impotence is so openly and publicly displayed. They kill us and we make signs.. and speeches.. and march outside their office buildings and beg for justice from the unjust. What a predicament to be in.. the contradiction versus the promise of America.. and us attempting to embrace the promise around the aimed sharp poisonous spikes of the contradiction.

    It just blows my mind the reasonings they give for shooting a person 30 times. And what further takes me on a trip out to lala land is some people give justification to those reasons. It seems to me, if a person is holding a knife and i have a gun, (and need to make a fast decision) why not shoot em in the shoulder? And only once.

    Its just seems crazy to me that this is acceptable by so many people. Is the worlds comprehension levels declining or what? Or is it just me?
