Lmaooo I just uploaded a video of the Trump supporters getting arrested!! They really thought they were going to get away with that 😂 Check out the video yall it's so hilarious
Poor people are poor because of stupid decisions. For ex: drugs, gangs, stealing, prostitution, choosing a man over a child, etc etc.
That's not 100% true but America you can choose how you want life. Dont listen to everybody else.
Our nation is not the richest in the world. Dumb bitch.
Blame generations of DC Government leaders. What have they brought in as improvement
that's a same and this 2020 bad gov and leadership
We are still at war . This war has not come to a end . It's ben going on for more than 400. Year's. I say when our we all going to be we the people. I am crying for u all..
You stand a better chance at bleeding out from a wound then waiting on MAYOR BOWSER and her staff to help out Ward 7 and 8. Its really disgusting to see this taken place in THE NATIONS CAPITOL. THE IRONY OF IT all is they had the nerve to down grade Mayor Barry. Tell me one Good deed this Trick has down for those Wards?
Richest country in the world? That’s a lie
Richest country in the world? But the wealth is held by a very small minority . 90% of the people are not rich. So how do you say it’s a rich country? Millions don’t even have health care or good education.
We might Built America but America is not built for us
When will black people realize this is not our country and never will be Amerikkka wasn't made for us and they show us everyday
WE ARE NOT THE RICHEST COUNTRY
A lie in the first sentence of the video
China is the richest country in the world 4 thousand years old… full of secrets. America you a baby 250 years old.
a
And I thought black folks in Arkansas had it worse, especially in the delta. This is DC, the land of milk and honey. Blame Congress!
If anyone has been to the Bay Area or Los Angeles and gotten a whiff of 💩 and piss 24hrs a day/ people living on the street…that's our nation's capital as well. So there you have it everyone…the US coast to coast.
Train more health care people,unite
Blacks open more stores in your area, take care, peace and love
Remember, this city has been run 100% by DemocRAT politicians for 55+years and probably many more! Funny, all of the politicians get richer while in office. I could care less what happens here because these people complaining keep voting for the same incompetent losers every election! They deserve to get what they keep voting for! And PS…..no large store will ever go into these crime infested neighborhoods! They get robbed all the time!
there are rich white's in USA and rich black's in USA .. white homeless and black homeless . how did poor blacks did not get rich like rich blacks? and WHY? . THIS kinda news seems POLITICALLY motivated ? just like obama plays black racial card close to elections .
I grew up poor and was on my own the day after graduation which means Job, Car and Home and did this all on my own. I made my way through life by ambition and hard work and I see no reason why people of color can't do the same. The real difference between me and your average black person is attitude. If you keep holding on to stereotypes that get you no where then you will fail and end up going no where in life and no you can't blame others for your short Cummings!!
Although a native of Pittsburgh, I spent summers in Anacostia. Summers in the 70s were so much different….block parties, a lot of the population worked for federal government. My auntie worked for the Department of Agriculture….and we had lunch on the paddle boat. That all changed when I returned, being stationed in the area as a Marine. The introduction of crack cocaine, starting in 1984, tore that area up, yet every administration pretends it never existed. There has no modernization, despite many mayors in DC (a lot of them black). Instead of providing housing for those who worked in the lower sectors, they government pushed everyone to PG County. But the area around the Navy Yard, there are grocery stores, restaurants and a baseball stadium. So in the end, they have been screwed by both DC and the federal governments.
😂😂😂😂no you aren't richest country in the world but USA has largest economy in the world
Obama was near and yet he failed them
Early Voting for Ward 7 and 8 starts today! Don't just watch the problem, be about the solution and hold elected officials accountable.
Blacks are racist!
And? Stop crying! Look for help from all the Black rappers, and athletes, and tv/movie stars, and comedians ect… No one likes always looking to blame! Look in the mirror!
There are so many super rich in US but I don't agree that we are richest countriy in the world
Yeah? You know how many supermarkets there are in my zip code? ZERO! Cry me a river.
Richest country in the world LoL;)
