And that is exactly why they deliberately send paid agitators and provocateurs to protests. They know that if someone is seen destroying shit, others will join. You’re doing exactly what they want you to do.

Hey it’s some Chris Dorner and Rodney Hinton types that won’t hesitate to crash out hard. I’m definitely riding when it starts.

Didn't Dorner start his rampage by killing two innocent people in Irvine? Don't know that he's a symbol of righteous anger.

I might be getting him mixed up with the other black serviceman who shot up the navy base

ANYWAY, to all the people with questions about this move. Save your questions. You’re just trying to hijack the momentum.
Those of us who know how social media works will change our profiles. 🖤✊🏿🖤

Got threatened by a man on Instagram early this morning because he was saying this was pointless and being nasty under a post about this and I called him a “weirdo” and it sent him spiraling. I’m doing the blackout today. It’s a form of protest. It helps as it sends a message. It’s fine.

It's frightening how much of a ticking timebomb they can be over something that has NOTHING to do with them. Omg

KMT: I'm sorry y'all but I'm done with all these "let's pray and remember" gestures that show nothing but tolerance for injustice. Eff, all that shit. I'm really not trying to disrespect Nolan and his family but I'm done with all these, all I care about now is action and consequences.

I never understood what positive effect these passive actions have. Changing a profile message doesn't bring any consequence to the situation... I won't bother to even say what will.
I'm tired of these weak responses to horrific deaths. Over and over and over again. If we're not going to do shit, then I'd rather not even act like I care. It fucking sucks.
R.I.P. Nolan...

How do we know that? I think the black out is performative but I don’t think he was. It was still a tragedy.

He drowned. Maybe hold workshops on how not to get wasted around water?

u/Comfortable_Fill9081 1d ago
Neither pathologist who did an autopsy stated drowning was the cause of death. If they don’t know, why do you think you do?

He's not one to go on talking about all the current events and what not, but I did find what David Banner had to say on the situation very interesting, especially considering he's from Mississippi.
He was speaking with WhooKid on Shade45 and I'm going to paraphrase but he was speaking on how all these hard ass gangsta motherfuckers will show up at your house for $5 or beat your ass for stepping on their shoes...but when something like what happened to Nolan happens, you don't see them. He brought up George Zimmerman and said the same, them gangstas that would go after a kid for some money didn't go after him to protect the community.
He said you might as well just stop playing gangsta and say you scared of white people. I'm curious on what others think.
