    If you truly think that Obama is nothing like Bush, then you need to do some research. Either that or you are in denial for whatever reason.

    As for an armed revolution? The majority of Americans are far too passive and reactive for anything major to happen imo. After all, we're not Europeans. Let's say that the government is caught openly abusing and violating its citizens (and this is something that arguably has happened countless times). Generally speaking, zero ? would be given when all is said and done.

    Dark Raiden drinking that tainted juice out here

    he really thinks soldiers just blindly follow orders LOL


    and keep on thinking that Obama is any different than Bush

    when he extended the Patriot Act and basically cosigned the potential for military drones to fly over US cities

    That's what soldiers do b. They pawns, they don't think for themselves and are fine with another grown man shouting and spitting in they face, degrading them and ? . Soldiers blindly follow orders cause they are sheep, pawns, followers. No real g who thinks for himself could truly be a soldier.

    And did you not read what I just typed, the major differences between Obama and Bush? Cause I already outlined them ? . Plus, if you want, just look at the economy. One sank it into depression, the other saved it and has it growing. ? is straight stupid and ? . They're clearly much different and if you say different, you're wrong. Period. It's not a debate.

    I'm not even going to debate your uninformed opinion about Soldiers when majority of "real g's" are workers taking orders from a corporation



    business cycles are a typical feature of a mixed economy..........just cause Obama happened to be president during an upward projectory of a business cycle doesn't mean he is any different or better as president

    let's talk about the proportion of US debt since he has taken office

    let's talk about the increased use of corporate campaign funding

    let's talk about the increase of the population being dependent on federal assistance

    this dude allows the federal govt to have even more power to violate your civil rights and invade your privacy

    yet you somehow think they are different.......

    these ? is idiots...

    they dont realize that obama is laying the frame work for us as black folk to get ROYALLY ? over after his presidency.

    the ? didn't even end slavery... just continued the postponement...

    you people are sheep.

    Gracias....people who think Obama is different then Bush obviously aren't paying much attention to Obama. In fact, Bush now has the same approval rating now as Obama does. It seems people are looking at Bush more favorably now because they see little difference between the two. The only difference is one prez is Black and one is White. Policy wise they are the same for the most part

    but in fairness, if you make the definition of a hate group looser, you'll get more groups...

    black people dont need a leader....we do very well on a solo level.

    we just need a borg way of thinking...to protect our own.

    other races dont need a leader.....they just have advisors.

    The biggest Problem is the Generational Tribalism Our LEgal system and GOvernment has perpetuated amongst us Black Folks we are more Likely to Take up arms against Our Neighbor and Community then to Protect them. We are so divided that whenever someone comes along that starts to unite us in away where we could becaome an actual threat whether legally or illegally our own are the 1st to step into take them down. If we as a culture developed a sense of family and sought independance from the "Masta" by supporting, teaching, arming and protecting ourselves we would see that neither side Dems Nor Repubs are really different from each other and not one has our best interest at heart...

    obviously, IN THEORY, an effective asymmetrical war campaign can ? up anybody - yes even including the Goku status U.S military. The issue is whether or not the country is ripe for something like that. It's not. Things would have to get much much worse in just about every way possible before regular people are willing to Che Guevara ? up.

    I actually agree with this. Until things get VERY BAD, a revolution will not pop up. People may not be the most satisfied with how things are in this country now but until things become unbearable for some, like what's goin on in Syria, revolution won't happen overnight
