SMH
By: Tommy “Tj” Sotomayor
In the second event that took place before the actual award show, you see how yet again another black event was marred by violence. Its so horrible that you can keep telling story after story about how blacks are killing each other over little to nothing.
The video below will be is just another example of how we are losing our young men to senseless violence!
There has now been two separate violent incidents that took place before the actual awards — a shooting and stabbing — occurred on Saturday night and early Sunday at Los Angeles events where preshow parties were held ahead of the BET Awards.
On Saturday night, a man was stabbed at a BET Awards preshow party inside Lure Nightclub in Hollywood, police confirmed to Sotonation that The club is located at 1439 Ivar Ave.
Police received reports of the stabbing at 8:45 p.m., and a man in his 30s was the victim. He was listed in stable condition at Cedars-Sinai. No suspect information was available as of Sunday morning, LAPD officer Drake Madison said.

Niggarance and niggativity at it’s finest right there. BET is at it again. Buffoonery Entertainment!
Then afterwards they spend a day or two complaining about how bad the black race’s image is
BET needs to be shut down; we don’t own the station anymore. Its own by VIACOM; its doing nothing to uplift the community
Until BET stops celebrating, supporting, and glorifying sickening shit, this won’t stop. But we aren’t stupid, there’s billions being made here, and all those singing, producing, recording, etc, sharing in those billions are truly the ones saying F#CK THE BLACK COMMUNITY, as they eff the black community all the way to the bank. There have been bands that went to far back in my day and were banned, or labels put on cd’s. But people want to fancy themselves OG’s when they’re teetering on 50-60. Siiiigh. How impressionable are our teens, if adults are acting stupid.
As long as this kind of activity gets rewarded by big corporations who give out millions to a select few who promote violence and materialism, as long as the drugs and the guns flood our communities, as long as we are followers and not leaders, as long as we call ourselves niggas, as long as we just don’t give a fuck it is never going stop until we are all gone. How can we influence change when the media that raises these children promotes this destruction? Our music was suppose to be a positive force for change, now it celebrates our demise as a people. Somebody is going to have to go after these people who are destroying our community and we can’t really do it by talking. We are going to have to hit the streets and talk to people and make organizations that deal with the poverty and the ignorance. We are going to have to create organizations that deal with addiction. We are going to have to form organizations that help the homeless. We are going to have to form organizations that deal with education and the youth. This is not going to be easy.
They have those organizations, its called welfare.
Once you get a drug charge you cannot get welfare. And welfare does not address all of the issues that need to be dealt with. Welfare doesn’t keep the youth out of the streets. Welfare doesn’t teach you about your culture. Welfare isn’t the same in all states. Welfare doesn’t help men in some states, they leave you homeless, they only help women. Welfare keeps the man out of the home in some states. Welfare isn’t enough because it hasn’t solve our problems, yet. Welfare has a stigma attached to it, also. With our own organizations we can directly target the problems. And why would you be against helping our people more? Why would you be against helping more of our people with more organizations? Are you against forming more organizations to help our people? Are you against helping our people more? Yes or no! Now we are going to see your true agenda, and don’t run!
“Once you get a drug charge you cannot get welfare. And welfare does not address all of the issues that need to be dealt with”
The thing about that is,
drug dealers with gold rims and things obviously aren’t paying for it with a welfare check.
Its payed for with the communities welfare checks.
Welfare helps the same way a lollypop to get in the rapo van is delicious.
I was implying the welfare doesn’t give people who sell drugs a way out so we need other organizations that get these people to put the drugs and the guns down.
Dude, chill! Silly man, ever heard of “sarcasm”? (Regarding “welfare”) I no longer have the vigor of youth, but I suppose YOU could be very helpful with all that passion, I’m smiling, lol, reading how WE HAVE TO ORGANIZE!!!!, SET UP PROTESTS!!!!!, START CHARITIES!!!!, BUILD BUILDINGS, ETC……!!!!!”. Bless you dear, put that energy to some use my friend. Before you save the whole earth, try coaching a couple of lonely kids or something. Bye, energetic commentator! Take care!
“As long as this kind of activity gets rewarded by big corporations who

Thats true, but corps are only after a profit.
They wouldn’t invest in that if you didn’t buy it.
They DO market a distorted worldview to COERCE you to purchase and glamorize these things,
but enough of not taking any personal responsibility for your life.
And when you clear that fog if childish confusion that they PREY ON,
its your responsibility to help the young people in line behind you.
Not just regarding race,
all young people.
There are powers that be who make their profit abusing the young and ig’nint,
if you let them.
My post DID talk about personal responsibilty not just corporations. I really think you need to reread my post because you obviously didn’t think it through.
Just a quick sum up, you do know that the media is a satanic organization. Illuminati ring a bell?? Anyway look it up. Those people will not promote anything positive, look who they work for… certainly not God.
LOL, it’s always someone else’s fault, usually a whitey, when blacks fuck-up
We are going to have to start nonprofit organizations and organize in every state. We are going to need charity. This is going to be a lifetime of work.
A Black woman can call that off.
Black men would only go through the trouble to impress Black women.
Its not just for fun.
Who are we impressing here?
Why would we do that?
I understand that it makes you feared and there’s respect in that,
but thats only a childish reaction respect.
What mature, grown person would fear or respect that?
OOOO look! A fight at the BET Awards? Damn them LIMPS and NOES!!!!
