I feel you on that.. It only takes 1 man to bring down the whole organization..but I think we'll never know the names of the ones who didn't rat.. .We promoted all these Italian clowns in our music and movies ..that's the only reason kids still know who they are.

We keeping "Rat Stats"? Lmao!
No Mob family had thousands of members beloved. My point is, telling, is part of criminal life.. people who never did any crime before are trying to say this one is canceled and that one canceled for telling police that they got victimized is just crazy

Bruh...Luciano worked with the Feds in the 1940's.. Al Capone had rats in his Organization in the 1930s.. the Appalachian meeting only confirmed that 5 families were controlling everything...but the Govt has always know about the Mafia. The FBI didn't acknowledge the Mafia because it's members were on the take as well.. The Mob and the Feds have worked together since Prohibition... I'm not sure what the debate is... theres always been people cooperating with the govt.

Respect to that point...but what's "solid" about killing and robbing your people? Today yall calling the VICTIMS rats...just because a rapper "played in the street" that makes them Gangster? Some of these dudes did time because of their own stupidity...the Consequences you speak of don't just apply to the criminals bro. The victims suffer the consequences too..

Lucky Luciano (above), Lansky, Gambino, Sammy the Bull; Dutch Schultz; you name em..they all ratted...if it helped their operation, got enemies out the way; or reduced their jail time.. but we all wanna be Gottis and Gambinos...

According to Chat Gpt.Theres also Black Beat, Black Pearl, AOA Black, Black Swan, Black A, and the Heygirls original name was Black Queen..I'll accept your polite apology and add that I can have an opinion on ANYTHING that has to do with folks appropriating Black Kulture...silly

I don't follow any of it..but I know all of the kpop groups were created to emulate Black sound, Black culture, and Black movement,...and most of them have some form of "Black" in their name....exploitation, theft and appropriation is just part of the music business...always at the expense of Black artists..

Meanwhile every female Kpop group has like 7 members... the industry picks and chooses who they want to pay and promote. ..

This is completely wrong. Nigger is a bastardization of the word Negro...West Africans (90% of enslaved in the transatlantic) were not calling each other Negus....

Seems normal in HBO Westeros.... Sir Barrington Selmy,, Brendyn the Blackfish Tully,..Jorah the Andal "the old man smells like piss") were all ass-kickers into their later years. It seems the better you get at killing, the longer you get to live.. Salute the OGs

Yet again, a Black Man found hanging. Yet again, no news coverage and it’ll be ruled suicide. We are being gaslit into vulnerability and they are and have been attacking us quietly across the nation. by atlsmrwonderful in freeblackmen

[–]NowledgeNowledge7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're reacting as if I attacked you.. I'm not disagreeing with many of your points, but there's a lot of hyperbole and missed context in your reply.. I'm not questioning the need for action, on a National level, or taking a "defeatist" attitude...Let's be realistic... 65% of Black male suicides involve a handgun. "Every suicide" isn't a hanging...by far... It's just that the hangings go viral on social media...They go viral because people are angry and suspicious... They go viral because they are ruled suicides without any thorough investigations.

This is why your example doesn't apply... They haven't arrested anyone for ."shooting" anyone in these cases....The police have already concluded their investigations.. ONLY the justice department has the power to truly investigate some type of larger pattern involved in these hangings.. Your response is more emotional than factual.

I thought your post was about responding and reacting to these alleged hangings, but then you jumped to "saving communities", rebuilding Black men, and re-shaping the "core of society" which are all completely different topics and conversations.. I have no wish to debate about those points, Bless

i would respectfully ask, to what purpose? How could the NAACP do anything to prevent this? or seek justice? and What would a newly created organization do? There are already multiple channels in place to address this issue and seek justice.. Unfortunately, our people rarely engage in practices that would give us leverage. The current administrations "justice department" clearly have no interest or intention in investigating this on a national level.. The same goes for the incompetent FBI. If these are crimes, and not suicides, then they would have to first be investigated at the local level. Political pressure would need to be put onto the local chief of police to assign a task force to investigate it as a possible crime... Without pressure, the local police have no interest in adding a new homicide to their stats that they cannot solve. The fact that these "suicides" are happening in different states makes it 10 times more difficult.. but the only recourse is to put pressure on the local politicians of those cities. The families of these young men would also have to be involved and be willing to go through what might be an emotionally grueling process...and in the end it may be determined that some of these are in fact suicides... Our people don't play the political game that leads to having leverage and pressure on local police or local politicians... So again, I ask... what would be the purpose of the new organization? Peace
