I hear people talkin' bad
About the way we have to live here in this country
Harpin' on the wars we fight
An' gripin' 'bout the way things oughta be

An' I don't mind 'em switchin' sides
An' standin' up for things they believe in
When they're runnin' down my country, man
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me

Yeah, walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Runnin' down the way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and died to keep

If you don't love it, leave it
Let this song I'm singin' be a warnin'
You're runnin' down my country, man
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me

I read about some squirrelly guy
Who claims, he just don't believe in fightin'
An' I wonder just how long
The rest of us can count on bein' free

They love our milk an' honey
But they preach about some other way of livin'
When they're runnin' down my country, hoss
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me

Yeah, walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Runnin' down the way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and died to keep

If you don't love it, leave it
Let this song I'm singin' be a warnin'
But you're runnin' down my country, man
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me

Yeah, walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Runnin' down the way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and died to keep

Yeah if you don't love it, leave it
Let this song I'm singin' be a warnin'
And you're runnin' down my country, man
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me

Our generation was supposed to be the first generation of black Americans to be judged not by our race or the color of our skin. Instead, we find ourselves to be the most profiled generation in the country and the most incarcerated on the planet.

. The pinhead plays the race card in his farticle and then complains about the color of his skin being used against him. As for the incarceration thing, I can't help with that. "Do the crime, do the time". This clown is a blithering idiot.

Quote from: http://humanevents.com/2013/07/19/black-americas-real-problem-isnt-white-racism/

"In New York from January to June 2008, 83 percent of all gun assailants were black, according to witnesses and victims, though blacks were only 24 percent of the population. Blacks and Hispanics together accounted for 98 percent of all gun assailants. Forty-nine of every 50 muggings and murders in the Big Apple were the work of black or Hispanic criminals.

New York Police Commissioner Ray Kelly confirms Mac Donald’s facts. Blacks and Hispanics commit 96 percent of all crimes in the city, he says, but only 85 percent of the stop-and-frisks are of blacks and Hispanics."

So cry me a river ya crybaby punks. Watching these wussies hiding behind their mama's wasism skirts leaves me feeling like justice is being mocked every single day.

Yep, ghettos would be crime free if it wasn’t for those damn racist cops.

You can’t turn around on FR without finding a thread on police militarization and abuse. If these clowns could refrain from making it about race, they might find some common ground with conservatives.

“a New York Police Department officer put him in a chokehold, is a grim reminder of our country’s broken, ineffective and unjust system of policing”

Yup. . .should have beat the snot out of him, beat him until he was unconscious. . .much better.

Maybe those “communities of color” are resisting arrest too frequently.

Furthermore, in 2011, black and Latino men between 14 and 24 made up 42% of those targeted by stop-and-frisk. That group makes up less than 5% of the city’s population.

I would bet a large amount that this picked on 5% commits more than 42% of the crimes.
