[A provocative racist cop is clowning you, controlling your reactions] Full Video of Ft. Worth Cop & White Neighbor Provoking Black Women
/Nothing to Lose But YOUR Head. Only a meditative Black person can really deal with or actually respond to a racist cop. Racism is one of the most powerful motivating forces in the world. It has been Black people's kryptonite. Racists have dominated Black people through their emotions - that is, dominated YOUR mind, which is where emotions arise & fall. Always pushing Black people's buttons, manipulating us and doing it to show Blacks who is boss or just for fun. And it works. Our predictable reactions are scripted or programmed in us through relentless psy-ops and a lifetime of false conscousness programming in education, media, language and symbols. As reactionaries, Chancellor Williams and Dr. Cress Welsing both explained that most Blacks 'continue to live in a dream world where they believe that singing, dancing, marching, praying and hoping will solve their problems.'
'To react means you are acting unconsciously. Somebody is manipulating you. Somebody says something, does something, and you react. The real master of the situation is somebody else. Somebody comes and insults you and you react, you become angry. Somebody comes and praises you and you smile and you become happy. Both are the same. You are a slave and the other knows how to push your buttons. You are behaving like a machine. You are an automaton, not a human being yet. A plaything in the hands of others.' [MORE] and [MORE]
Reacting to racism, most Black people simply freeze their minds and try to stay under complete, forced control. That is how most Blacks have been taught - pretend like this bullshit is not bothering me. There is no such thing as forcing yourself to be calm. You are not conscious in this state of repression, you are also not alive - you are a walking corpse in a very provocative situation. Folks who suppress anger are dangerous; calm like a bomb. "Anger needs a vomit." It is not natural to suppress it, you must let this poisin out, forcing it back in will eventually harm your mental and physical health. [MORE]
Other Black folks allow their anger or fear to burst out in flames and take over their minds. Expressing and thinking only emotions, like an animal. You may say or do anything in this unconscious mind state. The racist knows the seeds of anger/fear and anxiety are right below the surface and is steady probing to see if he/she can uproot them, trying to see how to"bring the nigger out."
In either case, a provocative white cop is clowning you, controlling your reactions.
[HERE], Ms. Craig and fam took the bait. When a white Fort Worth police officer wrestled Jacqueline Craig to the ground and handcuffed her for complaining about a white neighbor who allegedly assaulted her son by choking and grabbing him, the video of the incident was 11-minutes long. Today, the full 23-minute was released by Porsha Carver, who initially posted the first video on Facebook. The long version shows more of what occurred before the white cop arrived.
Ms. Craig and her four daughters are seen on the sidewalk, curb area talking amongst themselves and at the white neighbor in question who is about 20 feet away. It is clear that Ms. Craig and fam have already voiced their opinions to the neighbor and told him they are calling the police. Noticing them but completely ignoring them the white neighbor is seen painting his fence with a paint sprayer. As they talk loudly to get his attention, he steadily paints the fence, with his back to them, making it obvious that he is blowing them off. With his body language he seems to be saying: 'I choked your nigger kid nigger. So what? Call the cops, they are not going to do shit to me, nigger.'
Then Craig makes the initial 911 call to report the incident. While they wait for the cop to arrive, the white neighbor continues to paint the fence and ignore them. "I want to press charges,” Craig is heard on video saying within an earshot of the neighbor. “This is a grown man. He grabbed a 7-year-old kid and choked him.”
Then after the white cop arrives he briefly talks to the white neighbor. The white cop then talks to Ms. Craig, who explains to the officer that her 7-year-old son was grabbed and choked by the neighbor for littering and “defying him” when he told the child to pick up litter. The cop simply ignores her assault allegations with a blank expression. He does not ask the neighbor or anyone else for more information; his "police investigation" apparently was over. The cop then provocatively asks, "Why Did You Teach Your Son to Litter?" and 'Whats Wrong with the Neighbor Putting His Hands on Your Son?' ['In other words, 'fuck you and your family nigger. I'm not doing a damm thing about whatever happened to your kid if this white man had anything to do with it. I want to see you go off, so I can harm you and/or your family'].
Thus, Ms. Craig and her daughters were dealing with two fools or provocative racist suspects, unconscious corpse like robots programmed with all kinds of racist idiocy, inviting Ms. Craig and her daughters into their racist play world. With their buttons pushed, Ms. Craig and her daughters accepted the invitation and got louder & more attached, identified to the feelings popping up in their minds. The white cop then seals the deal by telling [daring] her he would take her to jail if she continued yelling at him. Subsequently, hell breaks loose.
In contrast to "reaction," Response is spontaneous and it only comes from the ever present now. Conscious alertness and awareness is not just an alertness and awareness of what is going on in front of you but of what is going on in your own mind, right now. It is not an observation of current events and recalling memorized knowledge - it is an observation of your own mind, watching your thoughts as they arise and go by. Analyzing incidents after they have occurred again and again is a useless, lifetime distraction. There can be no set plan for dealing with a racist just like there can be no set plan for dealing with falling out of tree - shit happens quick in the moment. Constitutional scholars and persons who memorize codes or legal phrases to deal with reality also will miss what is present in the moment - inside them and also may misperceive cop demeanor, tone of voice, body language, communicated words and environment. In fact, unless you are aware, the more knowledge you carry like that will slow you down. Your "knowledgable" eyes are interpreting & may not really see what is present. Mind is a motherfucker.
Anything you do or say in an unconscious state of mind will be stupid. Dr. Blynd offers the following definition in the Funktionary:
unconsciousness: "that which lacks any integration within itself - instability; uncertainty and confusion. 2) the rejected suppressed and uncharted part of the ego. It is the unconscious that goads us to most of our activity. A divided mind, with the an unconscious and a conscious one, can never apperceive things as they are. "Truth is adulterated with falsehood in the same proportion to which one is unconscious" - Osho (See Mind, Truth & Reality Laundering).
The only rule for dealing with racist cops is awareness.[MORE] Only a meditative person can see reality as a mirror & spontaneously respond to what is in front of you based on a clear unfiltered perception of what's really real - right now. Analyzing later cannot help you with this cop, right now, here.
If you can be alert, present in the moment when you are dealing with that cop you will be calm. There can be no "be calm" or forced calm. Calmness is a by product of your awareness. This awareness can only be cultivated through meditation. Meditation enables you to be "the center of a cyclone." No matter what chaos is going on externally or internally, you can remain centered, a detached watcher of what you are observing. [MORE] Only in a state of mindfulness will you have the wherewithal to correctly apply or evaluate any knowledge. Even still your awareness must be strong to deal with racism during a prolonged or intense encounter. Otherwise the forms, feelings, perceptions and thoughts that pop up in your mind will take over- making clear thinking or perception of reality impossible.
In a state of awareness you will automatically know what to do and do it spontaneously. Whatever you do will be the right thing to do - as it will be a response not a reaction.
“I was disappointed with the video,” police Chief Joel Fitzgerald said Friday at a news conference. “I was disappointed with some of the things I’ve heard and saw. We have been very, very forward and honest about the way we handle things here, and this is not the way we do things.” Never trust a Black probot.
Craig’s attorney said “racism is all over the video.”
