As a retired Army veteran SFC Pentland's behavior sickened me. On the Fort Jackson Commdaing General Facebook page, he stated that Pentland has been suspended from his instructor duties pending the completion of the investigation and the outcome of the criminal charges, and the Department of Justice is also looking into the incident.
@@MRSANN2010 If the Dept of justice is involved it doesn't look that good, especially If CID is involved also I wouldn't be surprised if some of the trainees in his company are being interviewed
Kid was probably happily thinking about what he was gonna eat that day and then he suddenly had to worry about this grown man assulting him. Minding your own business is a job that pays really well. Has health benefits too
Great video. And yes, I can't remember ever hearing "16 year old man" when referring to a white teen. You pack so many good points into such a short video. 👍
The fact that he's a drill sergeant who has had young black men under him training them. Imagine what he was doing to them. Also, Calvin what about Jonathan's Becky who you can hear in the background being a "Karen." Let's talk about her role in it too. Furthermore, such audacity Jonathan thought he could use his military authoritativeness to bully, and intimidate this kid. His wife should be in jail for instigating the entire situation.
If you listen close, she said something that was very telling. When the black guy suggested calling the police, she said....."Yeah we'll call them and when they get here we'll see how this goes." She EXPECTS that when the cops show up, they will be on their side and put this black dude in his place. SMH
@@1sand0s45 Exactly! Just like the situation at the NYC park where Amy Cooper who called the cops to come and murder Christian Cooper for advising her to put her dog on a leash.

Well it might have been nice if they took him home. Having said that when this teenagers Friends & Neighbours came to visit Jonathan he didn’t seem keen to engage with them did he? I noticed that his wife wasn’t very friendly either. No Milk & Cookies handed out by Karen either.

I noticed that too. Going out, spoiling for a fight, not even giving a thought to what if the other person stomps really hard on his instep? So confident in his bullying capabilities.
I’m in Columbia and this has us all up in arms. This is not the first or worst incident we have had lately but we aren’t taking the bs anymore. We matter.
I just learned recently that lynching postcards were even popular, that just made my stomach so ill... the level of hate and evil is beyond my grasp... I'm so glad this clown is getting what he deserves on social media, and although his charges aren't enough I pray they stick and he does the 30 days in jail for some more humble pie...
@rose valerio Some of these postcard images are stunning. You see white people, smiling ... little kids ... they look happy ... as if they are looking at a festive piñata and having a wonderful picnic. Truly shocking to see these.
That's why I now feel that Martin Luther King was totally wrong for wanting us to get along and integrate with them. Segregation should have been kept in place. Even though when our people would build up their own thriving communities, they would find some reason to attack us and burn our entire communities to the ground. No help from police then, no help from them now. I feel sad for the way I feel now but every time I see these types of people , I see someone who wants to do some sort of harm to me and my family. I get nauseous just going to the store for groceries.
A story of two veterans. The Black Latino man violently accosted by White cops on false pretenses and now this a White man who "owns the block". And dictates a Black teen "doesn't belong". What do they have in common? The bullies escalating a seeming non issue in a matter of moments while their targets remain calm and question their actions reasonably.
So right on everything. I live in Columbia and was glad the aggressor was named so people could protest at his home. Getting caught on video makes all the difference... hope he is held accountable and loses everything. We need to keep recording all this stuff
That hit extremely hard for me when I first learned of it years ago. It still breaks my heart to this day. His family is still fighting for justice.

Hey brother you are a well thought out, articulate brother, keep it up, we the black community need people like you speaking up for us, I will subscribe to your channel!
I do commend the young man, he was never disrespectful and continued to respond to him as such. Thank God it did not end another black man dead for no reason. The concerned black mother walking by knew this young man needed to get out of this situation
Why should he show respect to a closet racist? You guys love putting pressure of being respectful on black people when they're being targeted by racists.
I'm from SC and this neighborhood is overwhelmingly black! Like 75 percent I'd say. It's a giant suburb with several neighborhoods full of US! Most people around here are talking about this man's audacity. Walking around is what those kids around that neighborhood do. Have been for years. Tuh, he tried to switch up he and his family found out real quick.
Exactly!! Columbia is a smaller version of Atlanta, but it’s obvious some people still assume nice houses equate to white People even the bro Calvin in the beginning of the video was saying how “ he grew up in a white suburb” I was like yeah understandable bro but this suburb & all suburbs in Columbia South Carolina are 75% - 90% BLACK ASF ... that’s what makes this story even more crazy... the white caucasity
Exactly! Im from Columbia too and the Summit is a big community and people walk all the neighborhoods to exercise or to just see the scenery. My SNL just walked my daughter around there thenday before this incident. Its crazy this SFC assaulting this guy. He doesn't live the Army values and he needs to be discharged.
Great Commentary as always. Sadly, these same folks are trying to get to Mars ...they cant even get along with us 😆 Im sure there are "others". To the point u made the control issue is a problem! At this point, I still think they think we are "animals" and not human. Very disturbing. Prayers & Safety for everyone 🙏🏼❤ We are not rewinding this clock.
Remember George Stinney Jr who was executed unjustly by the state of South Carolina, only 14 years old. At the age of 80, his sister finally saw a little, and I do mean little, justice for her brother. R.I.P. sweet child. 🙏🕊💕
I literally live a 2 minutes drive from where this happened and it’s been something.....like you’d think after everything people would just rethink certain things but guess what.
Great video, I'm from Columbia, so the neighborhood is mixed, and he was suppose to be out of jail at 4 or 5 pm that day, the sheriff probably held him in jail longer because he had a crowd at his house ✌🏾

I remember when I was in family's court my lawyer was all over my face and I was this close to throwing up. After all's everytime I went to courts I threw up. That's when I realize that they've made me sick 🤢🤢 until I stopped going to court and they've tell me why I didn't come to court. I couldn't tell them they make me sick 🤢🤢 with they mouth.
He was also arrested. He's active duty military so he's going to face disciplinary action from the military. Hopefully, he'll be charged, serve time in a military prison and receive a dishonorable discharge.
People need to let their Congressmen know, this man should not have an honorable discharge. This man has served in the US military and EVERYONE is paying his salary and for his benefits. Pentland should be stripped of all of his rank and receive a dishonorable discharge.

My goodness can somebody put this man on a podcast. Put him on a panel somewhere and take off those black celebs that think they have our best interest when they don’t have an ounce of history! CAN WE PLEASE PETITION THIS LOLOLOL!!! CAUSE HE IS BRIDGING GAPS AND CONNECTING DOTS!!!
They do think they own everything. There was some study conducted a while bk about people walking on sidewalks, more times than not wm wouldnt yield or move because they believed they had the rite of way while women and poc were "in their way" I know it sounds silly but theres some deep rooted entitlement/control issues in them. (Try it nxt time and see if they move)
You are absolutely right! What you are describing plays out a lot of times when I go to the grocery store or department stores. They either will ignore you when you say "Excuse me", or if they need to get by you will they literally stop and stare at you as if YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO just jump out of their way without them having to be courteous towards you. I literally just stand there and act like I don't see them until I hear "Excuse me".🤷🏽♀️ I once got into a verbal altercation with one of them in a store because I was kneeling down to pick several items from a cardboard display in the center of the store, but instead of the Karen saying excuse me--she literally just stood there and glared at me. I acted like I didn't even see her, and when I did look up at her I looked her right in her face and calmy said "Oh, did you want to get something from here?", and she had the nerve to stand there with her face all screwed up and indignantly tell me that she needed to get by. I told her "Well I didn't hear you say excuse me, so I didn't know you needed to get by." Now mind you, the display was in the center of the store with no wall or other displays next to it that prevented her from going around me, so it's not like I was blocking up an aisle to where nobody could go around me. She actually had plenty of room to go around me on the other side of the display...it's just the fact that she felt that she was entitled to bark orders at a black person and watch them jump out of her way. She was SO MAD when I told her that because she didn't say "Excuse me", I wasn't moving. That right there tells me that her attitude was that I didn't warrant the respect from her to be given the simple courtesy of being told told "Excuse me". I was just supposed to say "Yassa Boss!" and move out her way. I didn't move from where I was the entire time. I acted like I was still busy selecting my items even though I had already gotten what I wanted. She was suuuper mad when she finally went around me.😂
Another thing they like to do in stores is not excuse themselves and try to reach right over your head or reach around you to get something as if you're invisible and they don't see you standing there. I just say "Excuse YOU" which is usually followed by a puzzled look from them, then I say "You don't see me standing here?" then it's "Ooh I'm sorry!" while they play dumb and act like they don't know what the issue is.😐

Very well spoken young man, keep educating us.!!
He wanted to be tough so bad. 😂😂😂
With South Carolina being a state you can carry, he lucky lil Cuz didn’t have that fire on him. 2A goes both ways.
@@kagandragon no he wouldn’t
Not open carry in South Carolina my guy, you can legally carry only if you have a concealed weapons permit only
@@professormoriarty703 are you implying black people can’t legally own guns? 😒😒😒
@@BNA_Est.1988 not at all.... everyone can own .... just saying, South Carolina isn’t an open carry state, to carry it around on your person requires a concealed weapons carry permit it South Carolina for anyone to carry on your person .I’m black and I have a CWP. Not implying anything just stating the law so folks know that just buying a weapon isn’t the only part of the process here. Would hate for someone to get in a legal bind for lack of knowledge of this states weapons laws.
@@BNA_Est.1988 As a black man in the South, I would be doing myself a disservice not to know the specifics of the laws. I never want to get screwed because of a lack of knowledge of laws. It’s tough enough living in the south while black without adding lack of knowledge variable to the equation already filled with many negative social disparity variables
Hey brother you are a well thought out, articulate brother, keep it up, we the black community need people like you speaking up for us, I will subscribe to your channel!
Truth your so insightful!
Peace and greetings to you to Calvin
You are a genius bruh I really appreciate your videos I watch them with my kids
I do commend the young man, he was never disrespectful and continued to respond to him as such. Thank God it did not end another black man dead for no reason. The concerned black mother walking by knew this young man needed to get out of this situation
Why should he show respect to a closet racist? You guys love putting pressure of being respectful on black people when they're being targeted by racists.
Teach & Preach Brother 🙏🏽
The total hypocrisy of that law! Who engages with what they fear?
You coming with the facts, as always.
I see you with this consistency, Calvin 🖖🏿.
You are brilliant ! The dog couldn't even be black. 😂😂😂😂
I'm from SC and this neighborhood is overwhelmingly black! Like 75 percent I'd say. It's a giant suburb with several neighborhoods full of US! Most people around here are talking about this man's audacity. Walking around is what those kids around that neighborhood do. Have been for years. Tuh, he tried to switch up he and his family found out real quick.
This is what I was about to say! The Summit is very very Black!
Exactly!! Columbia is a smaller version of Atlanta, but it’s obvious some people still assume nice houses equate to white People even the bro Calvin in the beginning of the video was saying how “ he grew up in a white suburb” I was like yeah understandable bro but this suburb & all suburbs in Columbia South Carolina are 75% - 90% BLACK ASF ... that’s what makes this story even more crazy... the white caucasity
Exactly! Im from Columbia too and the Summit is a big community and people walk all the neighborhoods to exercise or to just see the scenery. My SNL just walked my daughter around there thenday before this incident. Its crazy this SFC assaulting this guy. He doesn't live the Army values and he needs to be discharged.
A day before people were probably thanking him for his service, and saying he is protecting our freedom.
Calvin, Calvin, Calvin. You have done it again. You have hit the nail on the head so hard, I can even see those little birdies flying around it.
Double upload?? We’re getting fed today, i guess 😌
u gone get fat
Dude thats crazy I have never heard of that green book!!! Why don't people talk about this!!!???
Me and everybody else standing outside his house ready !!!
Great Commentary as always. Sadly, these same folks are trying to get to Mars ...they cant even get along with us 😆 Im sure there are "others". To the point u made the control issue is a problem! At this point, I still think they think we are "animals" and not human. Very disturbing. Prayers & Safety for everyone 🙏🏼❤ We are not rewinding this clock.
Remember George Stinney Jr who was executed unjustly by the state of South Carolina, only 14 years old. At the age of 80, his sister finally saw a little, and I do mean little, justice for her brother. R.I.P. sweet child. 🙏🕊💕
2 videos within a few hrs.......yessssssss
I literally live a 2 minutes drive from where this happened and it’s been something.....like you’d think after everything people would just rethink certain things but guess what.
Great video, I'm from Columbia, so the neighborhood is mixed, and he was suppose to be out of jail at 4 or 5 pm that day, the sheriff probably held him in jail longer because he had a crowd at his house ✌🏾
Calvin, you are the most articulate & educated brother on the net. I always appreciate your thought analysis, you constantly engage the public you address in a thought provoking discussion.
This is probably the same way The Trayon Martin situation happen.
I'm 52 and I agree with you young man. This oppression continues on and on. Right on points 💯
Thank you so much for your commentary and information on this.
Genuinely surprised as to how you aren't in the millions or at least hundred thousand in subs but I feel like I already know the answer to this 😫😫🤦🏿♀️🤦🏿♀️ (youtube ain't shit) Anyways, I love hearing your perspective and genuinely enjoy your little side comments and jokes. Super educational and so useful, thanks Calvin from a long-time follower🙏🏿💜💁🏿♀️
That was too short I was wanting you to continue because you are absolutely right
nailed 👏🏾 it👏🏾 in less than 15 minutes.
From an O.G...Well done young man!
Damn his take on this is excellent.
I remember when I was in family's court my lawyer was all over my face and I was this close to throwing up. After all's everytime I went to courts I threw up. That's when I realize that they've made me sick 🤢🤢 until I stopped going to court and they've tell me why I didn't come to court. I couldn't tell them they make me sick 🤢🤢 with they mouth.
Say Word Brother! Well said!
He is being roasted on social media. Is that all the repercussion he's facing?
He was also arrested. He's active duty military so he's going to face disciplinary action from the military. Hopefully, he'll be charged, serve time in a military prison and receive a dishonorable discharge.
Love it, good job young man.
People need to let their Congressmen know, this man should not have an honorable discharge. This man has served in the US military and EVERYONE is paying his salary and for his benefits. Pentland should be stripped of all of his rank and receive a dishonorable discharge.
Always loved your content and the way you break things down.
I'm not sure how I came across your channel but I appreciate your articulation and accurate breakdown of "what is". For the completion of problem reaction solution, I along with others many others are processing out of "this system"..
First of all find out who you are: you are one of the tribes of Israel then act accordingly!!
#new Sub😊
Shalom
Calvin your gonna have me up all night but I don’t mind
Much love and respect to you my brother. I pray and meditate for you and may everything positive in life happen for you.
My goodness can somebody put this man on a podcast. Put him on a panel somewhere and take off those black celebs that think they have our best interest when they don’t have an ounce of history! CAN WE PLEASE PETITION THIS LOLOLOL!!! CAUSE HE IS BRIDGING GAPS AND CONNECTING DOTS!!!
bridging gaps & connecting dots!! 👏🏿 Calvin, tell us if you're up for it, sir 😭
Blessings you have way more wisdoms than your years,
They do think they own everything. There was some study conducted a while bk about people walking on sidewalks, more times than not wm wouldnt yield or move because they believed they had the rite of way while women and poc were "in their way" I know it sounds silly but theres some deep rooted entitlement/control issues in them. (Try it nxt time and see if they move)
You are absolutely right!
What you are describing plays out a lot of times when I go to the grocery store or department stores.
They either will ignore you when you say "Excuse me", or if they need to get by you will they literally stop and stare at you as if YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO just jump out of their way without them having to be courteous towards you.
I literally just stand there and act like I don't see them until I hear "Excuse me".🤷🏽♀️
I once got into a verbal altercation with one of them in a store because I was kneeling down to pick several items from a cardboard display in the center of the store, but instead of the Karen saying excuse me--she literally just stood there and glared at me. I acted like I didn't even see her, and when I did look up at her I looked her right in her face and calmy said
"Oh, did you want to get something from here?", and she had the nerve to stand there with her face all screwed up and indignantly tell me that she needed to get by. I told her "Well I didn't hear you say excuse me, so I didn't know you needed to get by."
Now mind you, the display was in the center of the store with no wall or other displays next to it that prevented her from going around me, so it's not like I was blocking up an aisle to where nobody could go around me. She actually had plenty of room to go around me on the other side of the display...it's just the fact that she felt that she was entitled to bark orders at a black person and watch them jump out of her way. She was SO MAD when I told her that because she didn't say "Excuse me", I wasn't moving.
That right there tells me that her attitude was that I didn't warrant the respect from her to be given the simple courtesy of being told told "Excuse me". I was just supposed to say "Yassa Boss!" and move out her way.
I didn't move from where I was the entire time. I acted like I was still busy selecting my items even though I had already gotten what I wanted. She was suuuper mad when she finally went around me.😂
Another thing they like to do in stores is not excuse themselves and try to reach right over your head or reach around you to get something as if you're invisible and they don't see you standing there.
I just say "Excuse YOU" which is usually followed by a puzzled look from them, then I say "You don't see me standing here?" then it's "Ooh I'm sorry!" while they play dumb and act like they don't know what the issue is.😐
@@greatgownsbeautifulgownsI'm always amazed when people prefer to waste their time playing this game *and* being blatantly rude, *and* working themselves up into a self righteous ire ... when they could simply walk around in the open space and carry on with their own business.
In the past you had to walk on the street as they walked on the sidewalk so this isn't unheard of. Yep control issues to the max!
They literally act like God left them
in charge.
Double content! Thanks Calvin. ☺
The best of the best of the best ................with honors, Sir!!!
The sins that go against our SKIN, will soon become Blessings! “Glory”-One of Common’s versus
