The ONLY reason these people come to our hood and give us what our people want is because we've allowed it by patronizing their businesses. I know it's much deeper than that but you can't just blame our vices on the fvckin' government. WE keep them in business. The best thing we can do at this point is to open our own businesses in direct competition of theirs in the same geographical locations.
Face it, we're gonna always have Winoes and crackheads, drug addicts, etc. in our hoods and our families...that's not gonna ever stop. The only way we can begin to combat "economic terrorism" is to go to war  and start making money like them smart a$$ Arabs. |
Exactly, which means people just need to find a liquor store/ pawn shop with the owner of their own color and the complaints on this would cease... this country was built on the blood, sweat, and tears... as well as vices of the middle/lower class, it is not terrorism, it's capitalism... biased as it may be, it is still a capitalistic problem and the answer could only come through it as well.
