It is frightening however for Jamaicans will they be returning to a safer place?

The best decision I made in my life was to remain in the Caribbean. Better the worst of JA that that hellhole. Dat is all

In reply to Chrissy

I took the decision to live here as well but living in the USA is safer than Jamaica.

Depends, I am safer in the particular spot of the country that I am, even sleep with door unlocked. Doesn't mean few mls either way I am not much less safer.

And of course the news is spinning it as a "mass shooting in Buffalo...gunman taken into custody..." They sure know how to spin it.

My peeps called me early - they even got the number of dead correct - spin doesn't work with me wink The evidence here was undeniable from very early. Don't yah love how the cops didn't kill him. White privilege is something else

In reply to Chrissy
Early reports are saying he possessed extremist beliefs and he had praise for the church killer, Dylan Roof, and the NZ mosque shooter, Brenton Tarrant. Wouldn't be surprised if they take him out for a cup of coffee or to lunch or something. These LEOs just love these mass killers.

They said 11 were black and 2 white, as if to make it look like it wasn't necessarily racially motivated. You just gotta love it. SMH.

Newsflash Chrissy, there are other places than the good ole USA where people are making a good, decent life for themselves. Congrats, you've bought into the narrative that the USA is 'only this, only that' that the Yanks have been pushing for eons.

You making your decision to stay in the Caribbean is one thing, but me thinks travelling and broadening your horizons might do you a world of good. Many of your recent hot takes illustrate just how dire the need may be.

 
velo 2022-05-15 10:22:44 

polticians are gonna come out say a few nice words about it being a tragedy blah blah,cnn and msnbc will interview the relatives and close friends and give you in depth coverage of the personal lives of the dead .then it is over in a week nothing will be done to stop these kinds of attacks in the future until the next one happens and the cycle repeats itself again

Had the terrorist been "brown" with an "Islamic" name, FOX headline would have been:

"ISLAMIC TERRORIST, QUOTING QURAN KILL INFIDELS" Then pages of the Quran would have been flashes on the screen, with "experts" talking about "why do they hate us."

In contrast, FOX simply puts it as "gunman" kills..... or "mentally" ill person "shoots 10"

CNN is liberal or moderate, but not much better.

Had it been a Mexican, will the Fox reaction would have been similar.

In reply to WI_cricfan It's a place where nonwhite immigrants with a heavy non-English accent become millionaires or live a decent life more than the place where he was born & grow! Full facting stop.

 
Commie 2022-05-16 15:50:12 

There are levels to look at this.

Iraq and Libya had hundreds of thousands of black and brown people die because of what is essentially white supremacy. When Vietnam got covered with Agent Orange noone really gave a isht. The idea that lives of people far away is expendable to whatever just cause is trumpeted is now firmly part of modern values.

Reality

So 10 people dying in the US may evoke some form of strange kinship but in reality its a pinprick.

Of course, Obama and Colin Powell and Lloyd Austin and generations of minorities sacrificing themselves under the American flag to 'belong' can somehow confuse the bigger picture but now and then reality seeps through.

Till the Trumpster rides again.


From the Times article link.

"American exceptionalism is a form of white supremacy. The US does not have a moral mandate for global supremacy; the Right doesn't have a democratic mandate for its "war on terror"/ intel/COIN operations for "law and order", "prosperity", and "security". It's all as phony as the US denial of responsibility for the children of its imperialist wars, children of detainees (legal asylum seekers), and victims of its covert covid misadventures. The closer you look the worse it gets- the insider threat to the Constitution and democracy, for generations now, the blood of people of color on the Right's hands."

"We have known for years that Agent Orange not only affected U.S. servicemen serving in Southeast Asia but also the indigenous population there.

It is curious that no one has ever shown anything similar for the indigenous population in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait who would have been exposed to the same toxic agents as people claim caused Gulf War Syndrome in U.S. military and civilian employees serving there. In fact, as far as I'm aware, no one even bothered to investigate the indigenous population there which, considering both countries were and are U.S. allies, our medical investigators would have had easy access to; certainly far easier than Laos."

"To understand how the USA started the Vietnam war, it is important to see the film : " The quiet American " by Philipp Noyce with Michael Caine from the book by Graham Greene which tells the story of how the American Intelligence agency organized bombings at terrasses of French cafes in Indochina with French civilians and children killed to use the pretext as an alibi to say that the French government was too soft and start the Vietnam war."

What is worse is that the US entry into the War was based on a LIE.

The Gulf of Tonkin incident. 3 million Vietnamese were killed based on a lie.

It’s sad and frustrating that 10 deaths by murder is not covered in major news outlets compared to Johnny Depp and Amber Heard’s defamation case. People died… and we can’t guarantee that this is the last time it happens…
