What does this even mean?

*side note* I'm glad I have most of the people in this thread on block. Indeed it is true, ignorance is bliss Originally Posted by Gabrielle

What it means is:

Every group has its own concerns about murder, when it strikes someone close to them.

5 people killed in Wilkinsburg in a mass shooting, nobody gives a damn and not one dollar was raised.

However, 11 people who are Jewish, and the entire world takes note, it makes the national news, and they collect 6 million plus dollars, for over 500K per person.

Was it because one set of victims were black, and nobody gives a shit when its a black victim, but, when its 11 white people in Squirrel Hill, which, literally had one other homicide in the last 10 years.

But black folks in black neighborhoods of the burgh and around the burgh have seen hundreds of people killed.

Same thing with the kids who were in the school in Florida, a rich suburban school, with mostly white kids, and a few hispanics and its nationwide cry for gun control.

But, a kid gets shot every other day going to school somewhere in the inner city of the USA, and again, nobody cares.

Its selfish to think you deserve a safe neighborhood more than anyone else, and selfish to think only your crime acts are worth solving or ending.

These are two separate subjects. Murdered sex workers...on a whore board and you're getting down on me about black folks...knowing nothing about me?

There is a group I'm involved with who is promoting social justice. Wanna join?

Another big next step to positive change is to VOTE OUT the current DA. May 21st...Democratic primary Allegheny County.

Yet it's completely selfish to talk about a murdered sex worker...on a sex worker board?!

Nowhere did I say we deserve a safe neighborhood and others don't.

You must be one of them there baby boomers that think it's this or that.

There is room for this AND that, ya know?

I stand up for SWer rights...AND I stand up for POC rights (and more). Get the fuck over yourself assuming everyone who has white skin is racist. That is completely uncool to assume any of this.

The original post was about a dead sex worker on a whore board.-sigh-

It's impossible to speak to you, even with no ill intent towards you, without you taking it as a personal attack.

Useless to even try.

Quit living as only a victim.

And for the record, "I" have white skin, and no, not every white person is a racist, there are plenty of yellow, black, and brown skinned racists, only, they get a pass as long as they ONLY attack white people.

The problem with the black murder problem in Pittsburgh, and elsewhere is that you are an Uncle Tom if you try to change the black community, talk about the truth, and suggest that the problem is originating from within, and not only from outside, by the white oppressors that keep you down.

I think you have somewhat the same issue, everyone is your oppressor, anyone that offers any other opinion or advice, is somehow your opponent.

God, It must be a hard way to live your life.

Regards.

Just an observation from a third party looking in... stop... You make it real easy for someone to play victim when you're attacking them and taking their thread totally off topic with random personal attacks. Just saying. ��������

Dear lawd I agree with Gabrielle. The sky is falling haha. Sex work violence definitely belongs on this board.

I'm completely for prison reform all the way around but just because something is more common doesn't make it more relevant here. Sex work, yes. Racism, not so relevant unless a girl refused to see someone etc. I can think of many injustices that are heartbreaking but I feel on an escort board hers is relevant.

I'd love to participate with her bailing mothers out for mother's day cause but she has me blocked. Would someone be so kind to tell her I'd love to donate and that cause is awesome?

Without being there, how can any of us judge this one way or the other - which is what Miss social justice scold is doing. Maybe the officer went too far and deserves to be locked up. Or maybe he felt for his life after being stabbed and choked by a junkie and he resorted to the only option he had. We don't know.

Eventually there will be a trial, the jury will decide.

I'm actually a huge police supporter. They are underappreciated and underpaid for what they do.

The entire thing made no sense and Columbus has long been famous for a corrupt vice squad. She was under arrest but not cuffed in the front seat parked so she couldn't get out of the car? It smells like a bunch of crap. I wasn't there and I'm pretty quick to take the officer's side but I think something was up here.

I agree with you - I support law enforcement. I know I wouldn't want to put my life on the line for the low pay and shitty situations they sometimes have to deal with.

Yes, something may have been up or maybe nothing was up. I guess the point I am trying to make is no one here knows and making judgement at this time is quite premature.

I am a proponent for waiting til a jury hears all the evidence and makes a decision to have a better understanding of what really happened. So I don't think anyone can call this an injustice or an appropriate action until all the evidence is there in front of a jury and they decide.

I've been a hoe for 20+ years. Good luck finding me at the UPS store with that pic you took.

Back on topic please. It's pretty sad when folks think it's ok to jump on someone on a thread about a dead sex worker. Wanna jump all over me...I could start another fuck with Gabby thread if you'd like? Stop derailing a thread about the violence that happens in the community and boards like this hide. This is not the thread to earn you MOBCJC badge. Completely gross. And I can't read most of the comments.
