Obama Speech/Tr(n)igger - Saul Williams Neumo's Seattle

LYRICS-Click More-I got into Saul fall of 2001 after hearing the song Fearless, waited a long time for this show! Here is Saul speaking before the song, Very sorry about the audio quality of the performance, I was too close to the speakers, But look at him GO!

So you don't like the way we're running things?
And you don't like the way the chisel clang?
You want to blame it on the government
On why you got to money for your rent

You want to start a revolution
And blame it on the institution
You know there's only one solution
Now tell me what you're gonna do, son?

The trigger is you
The nigger is you
The trigger is you
The nigger is you
The trigger is you
The nigger is you

So what you gonna do?

You wanna blame them boys in Lebanon
And act like you don't know where they get it from
You want to project all your problems
And murder every way to solve them

Would Jesus Christ come back American?
What if he's Iraqi and here again?
You'd have to finally face your fears, my friend
Who's gonna hold your hand when that happens?

The trigger is you
The nigger is you
The trigger is you
The nigger is you
The trigger is you
The nigger is you

So what you gonna do?

What do you teach your children about me?
What do you teach your little children about me?

Pimp, thug, bling, drug lord of the underground king
How can you be sure I won't call down the rain?

What do you teach your little children about me?
You point your gun, wait, hide and run
I see it plain

The trigger is you
The nigger is you
The nigger is you
The trigger is you
The trigger is you
The nigger is you

So what you gonna do?

The trigger is you
The nigger is you
The trigger is you
The nigger is you
The trigger is you
The trigger is you

So what you gonna do?
What you gonna do? [mixed & repeating]

Are you one of those lucky ones to have had the opportunity to attend college? Have you ever taken a "Child Development" course? Did your school have access to textbooks?

[REZN8]

Are you referring to me the poster of this video? Or a comment left?

[sickmessiah]

Othere then the distortion from bass .. Sounds like it was a good show .. All thats missing is hard core lighting ....

[REZN8]

Yeah the bass, *sigh* My first time taking my new camera to a show, So I learned I can either be front and center and have shitty video or stand somewhere to have decent audio, Then end of the show I was off to the side, Audio turned out better, working on getting it uploaded!

fucking edditing. ccensoship causes blindness



[5assafras]

TRUE THAT!!!!!

[upabittoolate]

no. when everyone has guns there are more injuries & deaths inside the home to people who aren't criminals. saying that no 1 gets hurt at a gun show is like saying that no one gets diseases cured at a health fare. of course both are true. but we're talking about efficacy. crime is a function of poverty & population density. it's not like shall issue states don't have crime. in fact there's more pre capita crime

[Fatal616]

Actually i did, i gave you links. What do you have? I see nothing. You didnt answer my Q either. Youre a criminal - Where you going to commit your crimes? a)state where most citizens own and carry a gun at all times. or b) place where guns are banned and every citizen is helpless leaving them at your mercy. HMMMM. thats a tough one ay.

[upabittoolate]

you're showing me that you have not actually looked at the data. i told you to look at per capita crime in ccw states. i lived in chicago until 2004 so don't give me that bullshit. you evidently don't understand much about crime let alone cause & effect. not only are you blind but you're stupid too. i've had enough. see you in november idiot

[Fatal616]

Even that data still shows the crime is lower. I live in chicago, i think i would know. The crime has gone way up. We have higher rates than those WITH guns. Show me anything that says otherwise. You cant.

LOOK IT UP YOURSELF. GOOGLE "Obama outlines policy of endless war" You are so blind.

[upabittoolate]

btw, you haven't looked at PER CAPITA crime rates in states that allow ccw permits. don't tell about common sense or give me a 'what if' scenario, look at the data. wasn't it you who told me to do research? i responded about obama just fine, i'm still waiting for you to present some hard data (properly interpreted) to confirm what you're saying. i'll wait

[upabittoolate]

i can read just fine, it's you who elected NOT to read. evidence: you didn't address the question. how many men is a brigade & why send them? it's my supposition that it would be to help protect the men already there. but more than that, pulling out haphazardly would be a very bad move. it's tantamount to pulling a a knife out of a stabbed man's lung (just an analogy). either way though, that's not an act of war but an act to protect the warriors that we sent there. omg 2+2 does = 4 doesn't it?

[Fatal616]

Guns reduce crime, its a fact. 2 cities that do not allow gun carrying, Chicago and DC. Crime has skyrocketed compared to before when gun carrying was allowed. If you were a criminal where are you going to go rob.. Choice a) a store where you know no one else is going to have a gun or b) a store where chances are 5 of the 10 people in the place have a gun too. Common sense you will choose a so you dont end up DEAD.Seriously, use your brain.I also love how you have nothing to respond about Obama

[Fatal616]

Omg, learn to read. Once again.

"THE FIRST STEP must be getting off the wrong battlefield in Iraq, and taking the fight to the terrorists in AFGHANISTAN AND PAKISTAN.

As President, I would DEPLOY AT LEAST TWO additional brigades to Afghanistan to re-enforce our counter-terrorism operations and support NATO's efforts against the Taliban." -OBAMA

THAT MAKES HIM A WAR MONGER. 2 + 2 = 4
