Todd J., Senior Project Manager at Colliers International said via LinkedIn that “BLM Activists are Domestic Terrorists”.  But, that’s a fallacy: a question begging epithets a “Pseudo-appeal to association”. And even if you’re right, you’re only right because that same BLM activist you call a domestic terrorist was created by you and the same society that has been domestically terrorizing him who is only now called a domestic terrorist because in the first place he’s fighting to be free from domestic terrorism.  Let us stop  dealing with or looking at the #symptoms. Address the issue of #policeviolence then you don’t have to worry about riots & other symptomatic issues stemming from the problem of #policebrutality.

The Acting Chief of Police of the Rhode Island Airport Helen Ricci wrote an article in #LinkedIn attempting to explain and defend the actions of the police and to provide the circumstances leading up to the shooting. But in an effort to defend the police and accuse Blake she was being unjust and limited ignoring the institution of law and order, the processes of justice and police protocols. This was her story detailing the events leading up to the shooting: "Innocent," & "unarmed," Jacob Blake, as people have labeled him, Jacob Blake who was there why, to revictimize a woman whom he sexually attacked and away from whom he was supposed to stay (not now getting into Kenosha Police Officers' handling of the incident, but perhaps people need to reconsider their presuppositions, before claiming not just "unarmed," but going as far as to claim his "innocence")? "KENOSHA, Wis. (WBAY) - A man shot by a Kenosha police officer admitted he had...

In an attempt to squash protesters efforts marching against police violence on black lives. Anti-demonstrators brandishing Trump memorabilia, placards and weapons intimidated and taunted protesters in Portland Oregon. This resembles what happened in Kenosha Wisconsin when KyleRittenhouse, a white 17 year old boy, intimidated demonstrators with his AR-15 Rifle which resulted in the crowd retaliating out of fear of their lives and he shooting killing 2 and injuring 2.   But what was different and telling here in Portland yesterday was that it was an anti-demonstrator who was there to intimidate taunt and attack protesters who actually got killed. He and his far-right friends attacked demonstrators with mace and paint ball and deadly force and somehow one of them got hit. I do not celebrate his demise, nor do I condone Kyle or police brutality on black lives; But this begs the question, could this be karma? This is what we know so far: That a man riding in the bed of a pas...

I Feel Helpless Now... There’s  nowhere to escape, nowhere to hide, nowhere to run; No real agency of protection and support. That’s the feeling of some in our community. I was walking to the “papi” store in North Philly and I stopped and had a conversation with an African American man on the “block”. I said: how are you doing sir? He replied: well, what can I say with all that’s happening... helpless.  He went on... ... Police are killing Blackmen unjustly and enjoying the protection of agencies that are supposed to advocate for fairness and justice and for us. White underage folks are taunting us and threatening us killing us and that is Ok because he can retreat to the safety of the police and a society who have already demonized the protesters as lawless and criminal. And if that wasn’t enough, last night a black man got killed by his own black brother. And if you don’t get killed by the gun or by ya own brothers, then Covid will get you as it is already dis...

Trump continues to break polling and defy expectations. Politicians with Charisma win elections in America. Joe Biden is not charismatic and has not convinced me that he can win or beat trump. Dems got Kamala who does nothing to attract more support. In fact I think she’s more a deterrent to him winning. You know who win elections in America? Charismatic people like Trump, Obama, Bush, Clinton, Reagan Nixon. “Eccentric” charismatic People who can influence. People who despite the odds can generate an undying and steadfast flock of followers. Biden has not proven to be that kind of leader who has won the heart and soul of Americans or a strong base.  Hilary lost in 2016, not because of any Russia interference or Trump collusion. That was just another “convenient reason” for people who were already turned off by her although they were Democrats or independent. The Russia story only seal the deal or provided more fuel to an indifferent set of voters who found her lackluster o...

#BlackOnBlack #crime is just as bad as #policeviolence. Here we are condemning #PoliceBrutality on #blacklives & how do they respond, black men brutally murdered #cory last night in #NorthPhilly. And just two weeks ago several young blackmen in Philly armed with heavy weapons, in an attempt to murder a young rapper #poundside,  shot and killed an innocent woman , only injuring poindside and killing the woman. How defeatist & how 😢 and shameful. How hypocritical pharisaical. Further with all these killings, it begs the question: Why are people so quick to shoot to kill as a solution to their problems? Life is no longer valued as the ultimate moral responsibility to protect above all. Do we only value the life of an unborn child or animals over our own brothers and sisters. Can we not find other meaningful ways to resolve issues and work out our differences? The Ultimate Commandment to “Not Kill” does not weigh on us heavily be it police or civilian? Unless we have no consci...

GeorgeTrue1 tweeted:  NYTimes "At 23:19, Rittenhouse is seen in this YouTube livestream. He's being chased into a parking lot. While he is being pursued, an unknown gunman fires the first shot into the air." IF running away & being chased down & guns are fired behind you by those people” Ok and? Where’s the video? If I were there peacefully nothing to do with what you say but just to stand in protest and he shot me, would that have been justified. I don’t care if there were other people there with other intentions, that’s not a point of defense if he had shot me. I was however able to get a copy of the video, I’m not sure if it is the same one George alluded to. You can view below and then read my comments below:  Graphic Video Rittenhouse shooting If you ask me it is the #protesters who need to claim #selfdefense. They were intimidated and felt as though they were in imminent danger as #Kyle engaged the crowd with his AK47. They chased after him out of fear of th...

Black lives do not matter. Black is whack. That is what Bruce Clark CEO of New Clients Inc would want you to believe. #BruceClark of New Clients Inc. Rips Black culture and Says that Black People Not Police Needs Reform... they commit 47% of all crimes, responsible for all fatherless children, carry guns, debase women and have awful music.” That’s the real problem. But he is so misguided, racist and illogical using general argument about a particular case of police brutality. Such ignoramus.   However, Bruce was only trying to agree with Helen and disagree with me regarding the story the police offered about why they shoot Blake.  Bruce Clark CEO of #newclientsinc defended #PoliceBrutality on #JacobBlake saying: “The guy had a knife, resisting arrest. What part of this don’t YOU PEOPLE don’t get?” But it is Bruce Clark who is disillusioned and blind.  #KyleRittenhouse had an automatic rifle passed several police & was allowed to kill 2 people and injured another blowi...

#Trump & the #GOP #election strategy is to put their faith, time and efforts into Trumpism or the few over the majority. Thinking that the electoral college can secure them victory again. But this is wishful thinking and it is not 2016. The majority has become stronger. So Don’t limit yourself into oblivion or “reductio ad absudum”. What we cannot change at the polls we can change in our numbers and protest so don’t get too parochial and too comfortable in your patronism that is dwindling and will ultimately become fringed and obsolete. Think Big like the person you are. 

#News Just In: #TuckerCarlson is Under Fire for Comments made about the 17 Year Old. He said: “How shocked are we that 17-year-olds with rifles decided they had to maintain order when no one else would?” Carlson said.  In response to the backlash, Fox News didn't respond, but cited the full text to suggest that his words were taken out of context  latimes.com/entertainment-… It doesn’t matter how Fox News or Carlson spins it, I’d say that #TuckerCarlson should be under fire!🔥 for those irresponsible, insensitive and incorrigible comments he made encouraging & supporting #Rittenhouse actions the white 17 year old boy who passed by police with an AK47 and shot & killed 2 peaceful #BLM protesters in #Kenosha. 

#Breaking: #ESPN source alludes to division and tension among the #nbaplayers who say @KingJames acts as if he’s above them for comments made recently.  You can view the story  Here . However, this  only defeats their agenda to come together and lobby for change. I’d say to the NBA and the Players, keep locker room stuff in the locker room! Compared to what’s happening in the country that’s an easy fix. Don’t sweat the small stuff “youngstas”. If #Lebron makes a reference to “the guys under me” it’s “OG talk” or “Ebonics” in the black community. That’s how “ole heads” talk about their “Yungn”. Y’all talk like that so how’s this an issue? In fact, he said “I gotta look out for the guys under me...”. What’s wrong with that. He’s a dinosaur and legend whose looked up to and he’s making a statement about protecting them, yet all they heard was “under me”. Unless their was already underlying jealousy and hatred for LeBron which is misplaced and nonsensical. But please, do your...

@answers_in posed a rhetorical question to in response to my comments about #Blacklives attack by Police: “i wonder how police not letting you succeed in life, stop victim mentality”. I  replied:   White Teens with #guns are allowed to casually walk by police and take out peaceful protesters while a #Blackman is paralyzed by cops shot in the back on an assumption of having a weapon. You’re crazy or just purely #political or #racist, #hypocritical and or #pharisaical. You don’t know what it means to #black in #America yet! Once you are #black you’re always endangered by a system that try to conceal it’s wrongdoings by minimizing the pain of others as if it’s not real. Furthermore if I’m white, do I not have a human and ethical responsibility to protect my brother. After all am I “not my brother’s keeper. In other words “am I not suppose to love my neighbors as much as I do myself and treat others in as much as we want to be treated. Isn’t Another man’s pain mine. Are we not cal...

It was the moment before the President spoke at the RNC2020 Convention. Ivanka was introducing her Dad. I thought at that moment:  The country is in a volatile time with deep issues threatening #Americans. The is a moment and opportunity for the #President. What will he  say? Will he divide or seek to heal and galvanize. But to my surprise, the President offered  NO Remorse! NO APOLOGY! NO PLAN! To stop #PoliceViolence on #Blacklives or #JacobBlake. Last night at the RNC Convention soon after the NYPD Police endorsed Trump and lamblasted the Left as defending lawlessness and protecting criminals and defended the police record. Trump said in his acceptance speech: “Your vote will decide whether we protect law-abiding #Americans, or whether we give free rein to violent anarchists, agitators & criminals who threaten our citizens”.  Like who Mr. Trump, #Jacob Blake or the #Police or #KyleRittenhouse the 17-year old white boy with a gun who killed two black peaceful p...

NBA players decided not to play last night thereby creating huge opportunities for RNC2020 viewership. But, how does boycotting the @NBA games affect #police vigilante shootings of #blackmen. This is so premature and an ineffective solution that is reactive and soft and only affects the players, the nba and black and black friendly fans ultimately. Think about it, what does this do but result into millions of dollars lost and loss of therapy-opportunity. Yes NBA basketball and sports is therapy for some in a world gone MAD. #Nba stars have a huge platform because they play @NBA basketball so that you can use it to fight for #BlackLivesMatter and other issues involving “Abuse of Power”. But the same sport that gave you voice you boycott as if that’s gonna do anything to stem “systemic” #policeviolence. That’s a reactive move.  The RNC was on TV too and GOP members, fans and leaders and “wide” readers were following the convention. Your move to not play limited my choice of what to w...

Police Officers must always be pulled off duty & undergo intense interrogation whenever they use force that involves using a lethal weapon to take out anyone; even if they maybe wrong or right. They must never assume that it is ok to use force without having to provide detailed records and succumb to scrutiny as a deterrence to police brutality and lawlessness and violence.  Get the police off the streets is not a call for lawlessness and disorder, but a call for law and order within our force so that there’s justice and fairness for all. Police Reform must include triggers that requires the police to always use bodycam and allow the filming of police activities. Police Reform should demand briefings and stringent unbiased investigations lead by a new independent body or the FBI. If the police are deemed as cleared then they can go back on duty. Police Reform must have rigorous protocols for all police shootings which all officers must undergo whenever they’re involved in a sho...

#jacobblake deserves to be shot in the back and paralyzed like a common criminal. The police were justified in their actions when several heavily armed police gun down Blake who had the upper hand. It was a dangerous and violent scene and situation where people’s lives were endangered including the cops. He deserved it because he’s had multiple arrests, problems with dealing the police in the past and had several charges (no convictions mentioned) and was even arrested for being under the influence of marijuana or selling “weed”.  This is the embellished argument that those defending the police for political reasons provide. But if this is part of the justification offered by those who support this heinous crime as lawful and if this is the argument then all police attacks of black people are justified because  these reasons sounds like the black reality and experience.  We  demonize black men. We say well they have a history. But our society create situations that g...

When the Jamaican Govt. such as Hon. Michael Manley wanted to inject money in Jamaican economy so that it undergoes economic growth and development through infrastructural development, education and manufacturing, they were blocked by the IMF.  They negotiated a deal that did not benefit jamaica but made jamaica into a “dependency” and a country of debt. Jamaicans only work to pay debts to the IMF.  Jamaicans hands were tied in terms of how to use borrowed money on lucrative local developments. The lenders had other ideas so that Manley and other leaders could only do so much.  So we expect money to be used for its intent yet Jamaican govts are not the ones to decide how monies are spent really. Unless Jamaicans can find other means or become better negotiators or find other lenders who will not redetermine plans, intended monies for programs like making education free will never happen!

‪# Obama gave a powerful speech  @ the #DNC convention. He made a powerful case as to why #America must #Vote in this #2020Election to save American Democracy & culture. It was passionate, stunning, emotional &  one of his most trenchant + profound speeches. Awesome 👏 ‬  Trump and the GOP and their supporters were obviously shook by Obama’s counterveilance. So that Trump advisor Stephen Miller would tweet that “Obama is one of the worse if not the worse president in US history: Nothing could t be further from the truth. The fact is that Stephen Miller, Trump and The Business/Ruling Class are trying to repress counter-veiling tactics or radical opposition to its class-dominance by privately funneling millions of dollars to the republican campaign against the democrats and the Obama Admin whose policies are red-branded as being socialist.  Such initiatives include health-care, financial and environmental regulations that curb the violations and exploitations o...

@DonaldJTrumpJr thanks for that speech last night @ the #RNC convention. It did not ignore the racial tensions in our country & you took a stand against #PoliceViolence lifting up the #GeorgeFloyd & #BLM issues & making a statement of support for victims affected by vigilantism But we need action NOT words and double message. Not that you only empathize but that you support intentional and deliberate efforts by your father to reign in police power and brutality. #RNC2020 You know I wonder what the Convention is gonna be about tonight. Are they gonna ignore the mood & temperature of the country, continue to hurl out pleasantries & defend a system that continues to DESTROY BLACK LIVES. Or is this destruction of black lives good In Spite on BLM Movement Another Blake Man Gun Down by Police, Jacob Black Shot In The Back.  http://renaldocmckenzie.blogspot.com/2020/08/and-again-another-black-man-gun-down-by.html

Soon after Police killed an innocent unharmed Blackman in Lafayette, another story developed just yesterday of another police killing of a black man. There’s no end to their violence and vigilante justice proving only the point again that NO POLICY WILL WORK ON POLICE REFORM.  Just two days ago  #Police gundown #JacobBlake in #Wisconsin sparking #nationwide #protests.  WHAT THE HELL!! You @OutnumberedFNC @foxnewstalk are denouncing #nationwide #protests and riots over the #brutal assault by #police who shot #JacobBlake in the back. When #blackmen are being gunned down everyday by police and demonized as conducting suspicious activity warranting murder.  But, what do you think would happen When you shoot someone in the back. When you do the same thing and get the same results what else do you do? And why is it that we don’t have footage or bodycam when this is policy? And then @OutnumberedFNC resolved was even if cops are wrong comply. Is that your message to American...

If you want to survive, do whatever the #Police tells you to do even if they are wrong. This is the solution to #policeviolence offered by  @AriFleischer on @OutnumberedFNC today. Absolutely ridiculous. This is what perpetuates police injustice and repeated killings of #blackmen... compliance of abuse. It’s like a woman in an abusive relationship and she stays thinking that it’ll get better. She believes that her acquiescence and compliance will save the day but she continues to face violence at the hands of her abuser who has power over her. Unless she fights back she’ll die. Unless she has any real agency she will succumb to the pain of constant abuse.  It’s easy for #AriFletcher to tell his white viewers to comply with police lawlessness and wringdoings to survive as a quick fix to dealing with police injustice as if this provides real solutions to black families deal with the realities of police “stop and frisk” or “stop kill”  and police violence everyday.  When...

I wrote an article on my blog recently entitled:  Hey Joe, Here’s A Better Reply To Trump When He Questions Your Mental Fitness   http://renaldocmckenzie.blogspot.com/2020/08/hey-joe-heres-better-reply-to-trump.html I posted the above link on Facebook and David Krouse commented with a question that I had thought meant for me.  He asked:  “ Hey Joe, Are You Moderate or Socialist? I responded: David Krouse I am Renaldo who begs the question of anyone or anything. I am a thinker who thinks about everything and questions everything including that which I thought was true and held dear to in order to arrive at truth. I’m a stirrer of the pot that invites critical thinking that challenges ones own positions in order to continue the vocation of discovery After rereading the Facebook post I realized that the question may had been directed at Joe.  I replied:   David Krouse I guess you meant to ask Joe that. And whose a “socialist” or what’s a socialist? Peop...
