Black Culture Discussion Thread

It's not a dark alley fam. Like, I get what you're saying but this is the reality...

A man in an Amazon uniform with an Amazon truck was DROPPING OFF packages in a shiesty. There's enough context clues here for a logical person to see there is no danger at this present time. Change the scenario in anyway, even just slightly, and I get it...concern could be warranted.

Not to ignore your point about this being my pov and everyone not thinking the same. You're 100 percent correct. And I'll be one of the folks that will call out someone for putting themselves in a bad position. This ain't it for me, though.
Feel like the context of being an Amazon driver in a truck OUTSIDE and his job having very limited contact with people is just being forgotten.

Bruh is not in corporate with it on :lol:

Would a black people call the cops on BPs? You said that to say what?
Yes.

I say that to ask how much leniency do you think white people give to suspicious white people compared less suspicious Black people. Ski mask or not, some white people are just gonna be racist.
 
Black Panthers are deg--- ok, so you're assuming for the sake of making a point. Gotcha.
 
Yes.

And you came to this conclusion based on what? I know I wouldn't.

Based on living in a nice, well off, Black neighborhood with neighbors that don’t like degenerates hanging around.
You good, fam?
 
Look yall want to be mad about this cool. Your feelings are not wrong nor invalid. Don't sit here an act like dude was out here selling bibles. Thats not helping anything.
 
Ban Shiestys.

Like there is no positive argument you can make for them
Ban em from where tho? …It’s just a ski mask that folks turned into slang :lol…Its crazy how shiestys even became a thing, but we in weird times where dumb stuff like that goes

The actual item isn’t the problem, it’s the mentality/rep behind it and you can’t really ban that

Yea this is ridiculous.





Along the same lines.

This happened to me once, even though I WASN'T in my own neighborhood. Me and my boy went fishing in Deale, MD and I guess we didn't look like we belonged. Residents called the police on us; thankfully it didn't amount to anything more than they just asking us to leave. (It was an area that was for residents only, so we were in the wrong.)

But I doubt anyone white would have had the police called on them.



At this point, not having a plan is just plain irresponsible:

Get your savings up.

Buy a dash cam. Use WAZE to see where police are located.

Research lawyers in your area / find out if they have a good record & retainer.

Download a lawyer-on-demand app.

Police interactions:

Have your license, registration, & proof of insurance ready BEFORE the cop gets to the car. No "furtive movements".

The ONLY 4 statements you make:

"I do answer questions without my lawyer present."

"I do not consent to any search or seizure."

"Am I being detained?"

"Am I free to go?"

Record everything.

Don't be afraid to get locked up for exercising your constitutional rights.

Police must have RAS to detain you.

Comply with all lawful orders.

KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT!

NEVER EVER EVER NEVER EVER TALK TO COPS!!!!

The fight is in court, not on the street.

Ban em in the summer tho. Cuz there’s no way you’re up to anything good wearing a ski mask in 95 degree weather :lol

Saudi’s dress like this in the heat..


I’m not a fan of the “shiesty” (which I HATEEEE calling it) but the ones I see just look like they haven’t been washed! I’m definitely throwing hands if I feel like a dude wearing it look fishy

Ban em like how tho? Stop selling em (not gonna happen) , pass a law (doubtful) , and any decent establishment already not gonna let you in there with one on or security will tell you to take it off or dip …I just think it’s not that big of a deal and “banning” isn’t realistic, folks just gotta deal with a few teens and knuckleheads walking around outside in em looking crazy that’s all :lol

Yup.

Slippery slope.

We've seen this movie before.

Why stop at masks when we can ban weaves, sandals, lashes, bonnets, sagging pants, baggy clothing, hoodies, and gold teeth? :lol: :smh:

Anthony Childs, a 31-year-old Black man, was walking along a sidewalk in Shreveport when a police officer attempted to detain him. Childs ran. The chase ended when the officer fired several rounds, and Childs fatally shot himself.

The offense that led to this tragic and deadly encounter? Childs was allegedly wearing his pants too low.

Since 2007, Shreveport criminalized people for wearing pants below the waist in public with an ordinance that was almost exclusively enforced against Black men. According to data collected by the Shreveport Times, Black men made up 96 percent of the people arrested under the ordinance.

The ordinance turned local law enforcement into literal “fashion police” who used saggy pants as a pretext to target, search, and imprison Black people – with devastating and even deadly consequences.

Childs’ death spurred a long-overdue effort to repeal the ban, and on June 11, the Shreveport City Council finally scrapped this unconstitutional and discriminatory ordinance – thanks to a groundswell of public opposition and the leadership of Councilwoman LeVette Fuller.

This is good news for the people of Shreveport and for everyone who believes in the constitutional principles of fairness, free expression, and due process of law.

If you want to ban anything, ban the use of holding after Memorial Fay. Dirty kids be wearing the hell out of those things all THROUGH the summer.

Crazy they made this a law and not just a dress code for their buildings. And dude killing himself sounds like a convenient out for the cops profiling him.
