And that's a problem. Just like we still have problems here after King and South Africa still has problems post Mandela. Doesn't mean their methods didn't work. Ask yourselves this; was life better for their respective people better before or after their historic actions? Did their peoples gain rights and therefore power following their movements, yes or no?
The problem with you is you cant see beyond your nose with your Christian beliefs. You were the same person who said that if your daughter got raped no matter how vile and disgusting the rapist was you would tell her to keep the seed of such an animal because your Christian beliefs wouldnt be comfortable with abortion. It is the likes of you that make some detest Christianity and i dont blame them. You are here saying we should give a vile racist who chanted niggers should be lynched because he apologised. Is this the first time you have seen a white person get caught and issuing a fake grovelling apology? It is not the apology that will absolve him of anything it is his actions later on in life yet you are quick to jump and defend this white boy because he probably looks like your nephew and is a good Christian boy. By your warped logic for applauding this animal, we should also applaud people who rape molest and abuse children just because they aplogised when caught and other rapist and molesters dont . If a mother kills her young children in cold blood or a murderer kills 100 people and apologises we should applaud these people because others didnt. This logic works only in your little world where you live in a sheltered bubble. I dont give a flying fuck if you have reported me or not. You use the word Napoleon and yet you have issues when your weight is talked about. Arrant 2 -faced hypocrisy personified
Yeah was gonna say the same thing. I respect the points of view but knowing he was racist kills the whole Ghandi mythos for me. I believe all people should be treated fairly and kindly as long as they're the right skin tone? Come Samson that shit ain't right.
Yeah I kind of agree even though dude ain't on his knees just really promoting the forgiveness thing. But again it is very annoying that everyone loves to promote forgiveness when the person being victimized is black. Why do we have to be the only ones who practice turning the other cheek. No one would ever tell a Jew to forgive an anti-semite if they were chanting about the holocaust and gas chambers. Not a single soul would argue for their free speech or explore that they will change one day. It's always met with this type of behavior under NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL EVER BE TOLERATED. I don't care if you learned it home or are playing around you're gonna learn the consequences are severe and it will make people think twice about being so cavaliar about the atrocities done to a people.
if you ask me....turning the other cheek is what got us into this mess in the first place I meant gotdamn did any Africans go to war to prevent slavery/free their peoples Besides those Haitians but that's not africa..is it
Errant, idiot. Learn to spell. You are out of your ever-loving mind. And you read stuff into what I post based on your own prejudice. Why the hell are you even on this forum? Have you ever done anything with a WW except jack off to pictures of them? Miss me with your bullshit. Next time, actually read and comprehend what I wrote. I've said TWICE I'm not defending the kid. You're insufferable.
None of these men did it alone they had tremendous help. It was a united effort made by hundreds of thousands if not millions. Ghandi wasn't doing those hunger strikes alone and King didn't march alone. We give far too much credit to individuals when movements take a united effort.
Well slavery was good business it was only the peasants that were being taken and they were getting paid for it. No different than the Romans and the Greeks. Yeah but the difference and incredibly ingenious thing about the transatlantic slave trade was they took you far from anything familiar to you and made your skin along with your circumstances the reason for your plight. Black people have not collectively gotten over the shame of having darker skin. It's reinforced all the time within and without that darker skin tones are awful and creates a mental slavery like nothing I've ever seen anywhere else. It's pretty amazing.
actually there were plenty of slave revolts that got put down by the bullet...and africans ran other africans down and gave us up.
you are right they didnt do it alone but they do give credit where it is due....medgar evers comes to mind quickly. oh and malcom
mlk got his strategy from ghandi and we all know this soooo....if u dont like the cook...dont eat the meal...just saying
Explains why mlk has a holiday and a memorial site, while malcolm x has a few books and a couple of stale bean pies floating around
