Sure but in reality -for all their jive on being good at using their mouthpieces blacks have really sucked ass at it. This country is ripe for a rebellion and being as 35% of the military at one point was black...why in Gods name were their not more programs to immediately draft these blacks into intercepting police forces once relieved from service? blacks should have actively appropriated black service members into servicing black/brown communities-then as they got tenure they would have been our new liasons. But reality dictates and I dont mean to offend but forget the politeness for a moment and know that BLACKS are solely responsible for the lack of relations between brown/black---not the other way around. Some would hate to believe it , or say I am biased but truth that huge percentages of blacks have been rude/assaultive and have robbed recent immigrant arrivals from all groups. Those things may seem minor but as Ive stated over and over----its the pebble in your shoe not the mountain ahead of you that matters most. Latinos arent thinking on a blood feud with whites of which 90% of all inhabitants of the Americas were wiped out due to disease-famine-war primarily caused by white europeans. Blacks have never done anything near as brutal....yet our rivalrys are very real due to black -not brown behaviour. I bet youll counter or deny my argument-and that is one of the reasons WHY their is a supposed race war. The outright denial that blacks brazenly attacked browns during the LA riots as if they were whites. The denial that although tensions had existed before 1992 never had latinos been ever able to see their own brethren beaten down on national TV and spray painted black---now we (perongregory) can point to a history of racial politics in latin america---but truth is negritos in most latin american countries are seen as the kindest -humblest latinos of every group-as the color of their skin has always been a hindrance it made them affection to their country and countrymen. Now recently as Ive heard and read black latinos have found a voice in black americans and have got tired of eating crow and have now defiently questioned their place in their countrys by openly dressing-speaking-rapping and taking on the mannerisms of their black brothers in the USA. Which hasnt enamored them to the people-as that downlow =soft spoken black has done. Their is a race war in LA no doubt. It may not seem so -but their are daily killings from one end of the city to the other and the hatred has streteched into the valleys and SB. Their are maybe a dozen gangs going at it and at anytime if major black gangs get involved this could be an ugly deal. Some chicano gangs have taken on the demeanor of something akin to skinheads tattooing racial ephitets and showing their hostility by inking NK ( ninja killa) across themselves. Its distressing as when things reach that level beware its gotten bad enough to influence generations to come. Whites/Browns demeanor are different in that up until they all moved out many whites had storys to tell identical to immigrants. Robberies....beatings ....and robberies resulting in murder. They had gangs also -under the guise of goverment that payed back blacks through shear force. Monster Cody speaks of black beatings of whites in the LA county jail were a form of entertainment was being able to bodyflop any white who landed in a vicinty of blacks. But yes this blood rivalry has existed between black/white what I dont get is how black/brown has reached somewhat of the same level.
Not at all have ,we never lost our way to kick game(mouthpieces) , we have had very eloquent outspoken leaders who were shunned out by hypocrite sell outs. These hypocrites are nothing but puppet so called civil rights activist that played the white mans favorite toy.I don't want to get that deep into it, but you said where is the black leadership well who exactly is the spokesperson for thethe Chicanos, the Platanos, or the RIcans.Do you guys actually have a leader, You wouldn't actually think that this is the 1960s were MLK or Malcolm X is going to be leading a contingent of blacks , so they could be able to solve every black mishap that we face in the US. Its going to be a lot of people that are going to have to do their part.
I don't like the black and mexican tensions been brewing, if it was up to me,I would like for it to go back to the way it was in the 1990s were blacks and mexicans were cool. I have had some mexican homies, and we even rode with each other when we each had some fades.I am in my twentys. but I would love more than anything for it to be cool with chicanos and blacks,but when they are people out here pumping up this so called war, then whats ninja like me to do.I don't know whats happening but if there is a hit out that La Eme ordered why isn't every sur gang following through with it, why is there still some Sureno gangs clicking up with black gangs to take on other black gangs , this is happening from here to Texas with sur and black gangs. Now if La Eme has really called a hit out on all blacks then some Surenos are either disobedient and two faced
IF LA EME CALLED THE GREEN LIGHT. Why doesn't all Sur gangs go at it with the Black gangs.
I think people on both sides are responsible for feeding into the hype and its getting ridiculous,and as you already know the media is responsible for distorting things, adding gasoline to the fire of the situation, and all it does is take one flimsy dude from the other side believing anything he hears to set stuff off, this is why I have been to some functions that were full of Middle Easterners, Caribbean Latinos, Whites , and Chicanos, and I must admit I would of felt comfortable if I had my black comrades with me, but it could be black or white , I still don't feel comfortable without my comrades beside me, but still, now with racial tensions brewing ,the possibility of blacks having new enemies , I do feel think its best to roll with brothers.
Yes the morenos or negritos in Latin America are humble but not in denial or unaware of the racism,it really is blown out of proportion to me, because they are not that extreme.
Now as for the robbing of immigrants I know plenty of Ricans , and Chicanos themselves who rob immigrants or even flex their muscle on them whether it be Salvadorian, Mexican, or Colombian, I've seen this on the east coast like NYC, mid atlantic cities like DC , and even in Texas or KC were newly arrived immigrants choose to start stuff.I've also been reading about Latinos extorting mexican immigrant businesses. So do you think it is blacks only preying on immigrants.
As far as the LA riots I heard many Latinos participated in it as well , I wasn't there to witness it but I never heard of chicanos being victims of during the LA riots, I've heard of Koreans being mistreated ,attacked, and exploited(this is due to the girl being shot in the Korean store) but I have never heard of mexicans being attacked by blacks during the LA riots, I may be wrong
As for blacks in the Latin America, well I know for years that blacks have also faced oppression and neglect worse than other so called mestizo , Criollo, or Castizo latin Americans. I don't know if the racism in Latin America is as bad in America but it was bad. I have Caribbean blood as well ,but I there are some family members who have intermarried Latinos, I have also some what of a Godmother who is Panamanian, my niece is actually half rican, so I know the status of black in Latin America, they do feel oppressed, and yes some have been adopting a lot of ideaologies that may seem Pan Africanist ,Black Supremacist, or egalitarianism, communist, black militant, or just proud to be a black latino But the internet as well the reconnection of others, through geneology has helped to bring things full circle, and reconnecting the dots. I don't know how Latinos feel about their heritage, but blacks were actually stripped of their slave name, I don't know about Indians as they intermarried a lot with Hidalgos ,Peninsularies , and Spaniards
Now if blacks are the aggressor why are a lot of these ese gangs having Nigger Killer tatted on them as you say, why is there innocent targeting of blacks like there is highland park or in Firestone district of the EastSide being done by ese.I'M NOT PLAYING VICTIM ,but are blacks the total aggressor.In most cities black bangers don't purposely target innocent civilians , unlike some Chicano gangs.
But I really don't see it as an all out war with blacks and latinos, despite some chicanos and blacks going at it.So is this war really something thats serious?
