Give Tubularsock a break! All of these fucking progressives running their hypocritical bull shit about non-violence and all that shit while the black communities have been having to deal with these fucking murderous motherfucking cops every day. Non-violence my ass! Tell that to the cops.
It’s these same progressive asshole that still back Step-An-Fetch-It Obummer as he keeps ass fucking America. And they’ll swing over to Hillary and her same corporate ass fucking ways. They seem to like it!
No this is not a time for non-violence. This is a time to come out in force and threaten the power structure. It’s the only thing they really understand. You have to become so unpredictable and dangerous that EVERY TIME a person is shot and killed or beaten to death by the cops, the city irrupts.
That is the only thing that gets their attention is when they have to call out the National Guard.
When that happens the protestors need to back off and wait until all is calm and as soon as they leave create havoc again. And just follow this pattern until the cities and the cops involved have to change their behavior or commerce is interrupted.
You don’t have to burn thing down. Ok, maybe a few cop cars for the drama of it but the real power is shutting down commerce and that can be done by causing enough disruption that people stop shopping out of inconvenience.
And remember, you’re out gunned. So the confrontations have to be city wide with small disruptive tactics all over the city at the same time. Do you think the Viet-Cong guerrillas won over the American forces because they faced them off? No, it was because they used tactics that appeared and disappeared EVERYWHERE!
When you meet a superior force, dissolve and reconfigure elsewhere. This is a continuous activity. And can go on for months.
The cops are killing people everyday. And it’s the black population that is taking the heat. So ask that question again …… “Why are they burning down their city?” GET REAL! They don’t own it.
But the trick is continual struggle and disruption over an entire city not just in the neighborhood. That becomes scary and forces change to happen because the bottom line in our society is profit and if that starts to take a hit change will occur because it becomes too expensive for the system NOT to change. They sure won’t do it because they give a shit about YOU!

Americans seem to forget that their founding fathers were radical revolutionaries; that America was built on violence, revolts, riots, and uprisings. This non violent hypocrisy is sickening. Tell that to the families of the victims.

Thank you for this one Tubularsock! And I heartily concur!
Even the son of the Baltimore Orioles team owner had this to say!
That said, my greater source of personal concern, outrage and sympathy beyond this particular case is focused neither upon one night’s property damage nor upon the acts, but is focused rather upon the past four-decade period during which an American political elite have shipped middle class and working class jobs away from Baltimore and cities and towns around the U.S. to third-world dictatorships like China and others, plunged tens of millions of good hard-working Americans into economic devastation, and then followed that action around the nation by diminishing every American’s civil rights protections in order to control an unfairly impoverished population living under an ever-declining standard of living and suffering at the butt end of an ever-more militarized and aggressive surveillance state.
“The innocent working families of all backgrounds whose lives and dreams have been cut short by excessive violence, surveillance, and other abuses of the Bill of Rights by government pay the true price, an ultimate price, and one that far exceeds the importance of any kids’ game played tonight, or ever, at Camden Yards. We need to keep in mind people are suffering and dying around the U.S., and while we are thankful no one was injured at Camden Yards, there is a far bigger picture for poor Americans in Baltimore and everywhere who don’t have jobs and are losing economic civil and legal rights, and this makes inconvenience at a ball game irrelevant in light of the needless suffering government is inflicting upon ordinary Americans.”
…and it concluded with, “Not exactly what the U.S. Department of Truth wanted to hear!”
Hear! Hear!

Amen folks! We have only 3 options. (So technically 4 — but giving up doesn’t count in my book.)
1. We could outgun them. Except as you note they have a huge head start, and we don’t have a trillion dollars a year to help catch up.
2. We can wait for the system to do itself in and collapse. That might happen, but when? Last century wouldn’t be soon enough!
2-a. Wait for the next presidential election, and count on the best candidate winning, then restoring the country to sanity and justice. Hmm, I like that one, but I’m impatient, and … that just might not be what we get.
3. What Tubularsock just said. Maybe that could be the “thousand points of light” somebody once told us would be a good idea?
Damn. Another possibility just came to me — we might run away. But only with a moses to part the Pacific Ocean or something. Option 3 it is! Great post as usual, thanks! – Linda

Liked your points but 2a is kind of a recall. Tubularsock recalls all that Obama hope and change bull shit and HE was supposed to be the “best candidate winning” and you’ve seen how that has worked out.
With the exception of Tubularsock winning there really isn’t a best candidate, period. And hasn’t been forever!

Personally, I hope all hell breaks loose to the point where the media talking-heads won’t be able to twist and turn everything around. These political pigs have the unmitigated nerve to talk about violence, when Obomber is droning the hell out of people who don’t even know the US has declared war on them!
I know you want to be pres really bad, my Capitan, but truthfully what the world needs is for this piece of shit to be nuked. It’s been a fucking curse from the beginning!

Firstly, i just want to pray for peace, for the residents of Baltimore who have to live through this police brutality injustice day after day. People do have the power to enforce peace thru passive resistance and mass demonstrations. It happened in India, South Africa, and during the civil rights movement in the States. It’s possible to affect change collectively, if citizens unite and stay the course.
In a capitalist society, boycotts and civil disruption to business would bring any gov’t to their knees!
Medgar Evers, MLK, Nelson Mandela, Gandhi knew this very well, Malcolm X and the Black Panther party took that to the next level – civil disobedience and revolution by any means necessary.
Since direct violence and confrontation with authorities is ultimately futile, intelligent guerrilla warfare tactics are a must.
“I do not deny that I planned sabotage. I did not plan it in a spirit of recklessness nor because I have any love of violence. I planned it as a result of a calm and sober assessment of the political situation that had arisen after many years of tyranny, exploitation and oppression of my people by the whites.”
— Nelson Mandela
In a few weeks, city of Baltimore plans to shut off water to 25,000 residents. Let’s see how that’s going down! I see this as a watershed moment (pun intended) in American history.

“. . .citizens unite and stay the course”.
Would be great to see that happen. But that will only happen when all citizens have skin in the game. And as we all know the game is rigged and that makes it more difficult. The power structure always attempts to divide and conquer as all colonial powers have done as you know.
And yes “intelligent guerrilla warfare tactics” are the way to go. They are slow but like a bad rash, powerful.

The US is a post racial society just as much as a class society. There’s nothing to fight for because we’re all equal. Nothing to see hear, folks. Move along.

When you write it how you want it so to speak, then it takes out the factor of having to prove your opponent is wrong because they prove it themselves by their own actions compared to what one has laid out as an alternative. Max efficiency.
