    He ain't lying. MF's got to know by now that everything in America is set up to make money. The prison and jail system is set up for you to become a recidivist. It's set up for you to pay court fees, probation fees, and lawyer fees. All this ? is a trap and if your stupid enough to fall for it that's on you.

    MFs don't even know what they saying right know -

    The solution yall think yall talking about ain't even a ? solution.

    Of course the MFs with the ? up homes should do something about their ? up homes.

    How many times sometimes somebody gotta tell yall that it doesn't mean the prison system and the court system, and the cops, and the political system, etc.. etc... ain't ? up ?

    Who the ? is in here saying MFs should have ? up homes ?

    you hardheaded ass ? we all know that the system is ? up therefore the intelligent thing to do is not feed into the system. We can stop feeding into the system and let it die a slow death if we stop producing individuals who are prone to committing crime.

    These individuals are created in the home and go out and spread there malfunctions into the larger black community when the community gets ? up it turns to politicians for solutions and politicians look for the easiest answers but not always the best answers to crime which is usually harder laws. These laws usually remove men from the home for long periods of time this turn leads to the creation of more ? up homes. You understand it's a cycle.

    if we fix the home we can slowly ? the system because it starts in the home.

    Yeah you dumb MF - which why I clearly said in the post MFs who got ? up homes should obviously do something about it - does that mean the system ain't ? up ?

    What the ? you really said in your reply that refutes mine ?

    You think systematic racism gonna just go the ? away because MFs got nice homes ?

    Some of yall wanna-be smart MFs is even dumber than yall think.

    lol the whole point that i am making is that while systematic racism go away it also won't have the same destructive effect it has now if blacks fixed the home and community situation.

    I see some of y'all are still expecting white people to save y'all...

    Keep waiting on the system to be fixed...
    It dont think anybody's waiting to be saved. We just want the system to stop ? over us so we can have the same opportunities as others. The margin of error for black folks is ALOT slimmer than other races

    Correct... So like Denzel said, don't make it easy. The way to combat it from our end is to take care of home.

    Simply pointing out injustice does nothing. And changing the system takes forever, if it ever happens.

    Literally your best solution for the time being is to take care of home.

    the only problem with this is the same reason ? bringing up everything but this...

    responsibility is a mean ? ....especially when you have no one to blame.

    then the real ? and the real men stand up and stand out.

    as long a fukk ? running around they can hide amongst the problems. they can dodge growing up. they can dodge being a man.

    but if we can limit the fukery then guess what? them ? out chea looking like fools.

    And when we "limit the fukery", does that mean we don't still have a systematically racist country ?

    And what if your fuckery is already limited or you ain't got no fuckery goin on - the systematically racist system should still exist because of the MFs who still engage in the fuckery ?

    You don't see what's wrong with that argument ?

    You really think MFs ain't in here discussing the WHOLE ? ?

    The problem with Denzel's statement is that it doesn't address, and oversimplifies, the whole situation - and that's why people got problems with it.

    Let me guess - all the people who got problems with it believe that it's ok to have ? up homes and blame crimes on society and have no accountability etc.. etc...

    Post then bruh, it's all good. You ain't posting nothing of substance so I see no reason to continue a discussion with you.

    BTW that "emotion" ? ain't a insult bruh, it's what 80s baby passive-aggressive cornball MFs say when they can't contribute intellectually to a topic on the internet - which is a damn shame for a Black dude on a topic like this.

    You're still a child so this is all new to you. Go ahead, let's see how far being a social activist on the IC gets you. And i definitely specified the type of emotions your displaying are detrimental.

    Here goes a more well-rounded discussion of the topic for you oversimplifying sheep MFs.

    I doubt y'all low attention-span MFs will listen to it though.

    Taking care of home isnt a solution tho lol. Like I said all races commit crimes but for some reason it's black people who have to be held accountable for all the crime that happens among black people. When the Vegas shooter shot up that concert, I never heard white people say they had to fix mass shootings within their own community. You know why? Because they realize you cant control another persons actions. But for some reason rich famous black people feel they can lecture other black people on how to fix problems even dont go thru being rich. Denzel's comments were more about him appeasing the wealthy white cacs that sign his checks.

    Straw man argument.... We are talking about people who break laws. Not innocent old lady's who become the victims of police mistakes.

    Stop accusing people of being stupid when you cannot even properly debate

    So in the other words, for us to avoid grossly unfair prison sentencing based off our color, we as black ppl should NEVER commit any crimes at all? Thats the answer to DECADES of racist prison sentencing. Forget the fact crime is based off economic conditions not race

    lol wait wait wait....

    The system has destroyed and continues to target the black family with mass incarceration ....y’all solution “fix the family and you’ll fix the system ”

    That makes no sense....the family needs to be fixed because of the system....in order to fix the family you gotta fix the system, is it really that hard?? If you fix the family the system will break it again because that’s what it’s intended to do....y’all solution will have us in a continuous cycle of trying to fix the family after problems keep rising...what y’all saying is the system is working we just gotta fix our families

    Again you don’t treat the symptom you ? the virus unless y’all doing it the American way to make money then you let them keep the virus and treat the symptoms so you can make more money than if you ? the virus

    we know the system is working against black progress but we are working against ourselves by producing ain't ? men and women. The former we are limited in addressing but the later we can address and improve.

    AND when we do address it and improve it the destructive effects of the system be limited.
