The men that carried out these HEINOUS CRIMES are THUGS AND CRIMINALS with the legal authority to do so with impunity. @pushingblack On January 24th, Six YT officers in Braxton, Mississippi turned off their bodycams before illegally entering a home without a search warrant. A federal lawsuit reveals what happened. The officers claimed they were responding to a drug report, but when there were no drugs to be found, these cops didn’t stop. Instead, they proceeded to torture Michael Jenkins and Eddie Parker. They shocked them over and over with their tasers, beat them and kicked them. They waterboarded them. They even tried to rape the men with a sex toy. Throughout the night, they tried to force a fake confession out of the men, hurling racist slurs and accusing them of committing “racial violations” like dating YT women. They threatened to kill the men, holding their guns to their heads repeatedly. • At 11:40 PM, Deputy Hunter Elward placed his gun in Jenkins’ mouth and shot, shattering his jaw and irreparably damaging his tongue. He stumbled out of the house and fell to the ground and was just left there with no assistance for 20 minutes. Eventually, EMS showed up. Jenkins survived the life-threatening injuries, but his tongue had to be removed and he is now unable to speak. Both men are facing unspeakable trauma and will have a battle to find peace in their minds after being subjected to what can only be described as racial terrorism."

This is a perfect example of how..."
As the kind of person who is targeted by rising fascism, I would prefer you did not speak for us. I am firmly against gun ownership. The statistics show that having a gun on you makes you less safe, not more.
As someone who knows that you have no idea what “kind of person” @[email protected] is… I would suggest you don’t act like you can take away someones voice on behalf of “your” category of people.
Nobody can speak for a whole race, color, creed, type, or any other aggregate of people that includes the “whole” of people. They very well could be “vulnerable” themselves and you’ve just dismissed their statement in the affirmative against your stance.
And to preempt it. You also don’t know who/what I am. So don’t bother with your crappy logic on me either.
I didn’t say they weren’t a vulnerable person, merely that even if they were they did not speak for us.
If they cannot represent the entire class of people… Then you can’t either.
Next time just say “Don’t speak for me”.
Did I say I spoke for the entire class of people?
Yes… That’s what “us” means.
Yeah, if I’d literally said, “I speak for us.” All I said was, “You don’t speak for us.” Which is true. I never claimed to be speaking for anyone but myself.
They may very well speak for some. You don’t know. But regardless, they appear to only be speaking for themselves. So your response of “don’t speak for us” is indeed invoking the entire class.
And no, you’re not speaking for yourself when you say “us” unless you’ve got Dissociative Identity Disorder or something of that nature… Or possible identify with “us” as a pronoun?
Otherwise… when I say “come with us” do you expect to go somewhere with me alone? or as a group? Probably the latter… and that should prove my point. You’re speaking for others when you said “don’t speak for us”.
God. If you’re this deliberately dense, there’s no point in arguing with you. Enjoy whatever this shit is rattling around in your brain. Blocked.
Who said I was speaking for “us”? And what makes you think I’m not in that group?
You sure did imply it. And nobody said you weren’t in that group, merely that you did not speak for us.
