Bill Maher: Why Aren't Major Black Celebrities Asking Why Black People Are Killing Each Other In Cities Like Chicago?
Real clear politics ^ | 04/22/2023 | Ian Schwartz

HBO host Bill Maher on Friday said Chicago Mayor-elect Brandon Johnson was "excusing horrific behavior" in a speech he delivered following several shootings in Chicagoland last week and questioned why black celebrities with large fanbases do not have opinions on these issues.

"Most of the shootings [in Chicago] are young black men killing other young black men. Is that not correct?" Maher asked.

"Yeah that's correct," guest Glenn Loury responded.

I’ve got another good question.

When are you going to tell your kids not to steal from stores? That store where grandma gets her meds to live, is closing due to theft? You plan to find a way across town to pick up her meds for her, or naaa?

Malcolm X late in his life mentioned that white liberal ideology was harmful for the black culture. He too was a victim of black on black crime albeit from a rift within his Muslim sect.

Black lives ONLY matter if they are taken by a white person or a cop. There are no money, grandstanding, or political points to be made off of black-on-black murders.

That nails it exactly. My neighbors have a black lives matter sign, I'm tempted to fashion my own with your statement.

Why? Because it would require them to admit that Black on Black Crime is a direct result of the failure of Civil Rights and the Great Society!

As my mentor (A White NAVY Chief and reformed redneck-his words not mine) told me Civil Rights only mean that a person has to respect your right as a human to exist in a civil setting! Anything less than respecting your GOD given Human Rights to exist is an a**kickable offense in my book, so go handle your business and let me worry about any paperwork behind it.

The so-called Great Society removed the Black Man from the home, convinced the Black Woman that she was better off without him outside of reproduction, and made him the enemy of the State.

Bill Maher may be inadvertently red-pilling his audience.

My guess is because if those black celebrities spoke out, within a year they would be living back there.

For sure. When that gets attention by Bill, it’s almost over for the left.

It’s the nature of their culture to handle their own matters one way or another. ...and even not at all..... of course they can and do pull the race card and police violence otherwise for evryone else.

:^) Bill Maher of course is concern trolling again, he already knows the answer and isn't going to state it.

100% of the killings in (sh)Atlanta for multiple years were done by black males.
