I hear people talkin' bad
About the way we have to live here in this country
Harpin' on the wars we fight
An' gripin' 'bout the way things oughta be

An' I don't mind 'em switchin' sides
An' standin' up for things they believe in
When they're runnin' down my country, man
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me

Yeah, walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Runnin' down the way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and died to keep

If you don't love it, leave it
Let this song I'm singin' be a warnin'
You're runnin' down my country, man
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me

I read about some squirrelly guy
Who claims, he just don't believe in fightin'
An' I wonder just how long
The rest of us can count on bein' free

They love our milk an' honey
But they preach about some other way of livin'
When they're runnin' down my country, hoss
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me

Yeah, walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Runnin' down the way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and died to keep

If you don't love it, leave it
Let this song I'm singin' be a warnin'
But you're runnin' down my country, man
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me

Yeah, walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Runnin' down the way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and died to keep

Yeah if you don't love it, leave it
Let this song I'm singin' be a warnin'
And you're runnin' down my country, man
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me

Racists view everything in terms of race.

“As rightfully incensed residents of Ferguson, Missouri continue to protest a police shooting that left an unarmed black teenager, Michael Brown, dead, “

No bias there.

Going to the UN. I suggest both of these so called “fathers” be charged with treason against the sovereign United States of America. But hey! The freeloaders are getting to vacation in Switzerland. Probably at somebody else’s expense. Never let a good opportunity go to waste.

Sunday morning after a midnight curfew took effect in a St. Louis suburb where a black teen had been shot by a white police officer while walking down the street.

A black teen who just strangled a convenience store clerk,(not to death) while stealing from the store and who slammed into a police cruisers door being opened by a cop and tried to take the cops gun and shoot him then when the cop got out of the car, the perp ran all his 300 lbs toward the cop trying to bowl him over.....he got shot.

The news media is not reporting that part of the story.

but HEY, at least they THINK they can distract the public from incompetence in the White House!

"for the killers attempting to paint the boys as young thugs–mere criminals, who were deserving of their death sentences at the hands of men who acted as the judge, jury, and executioner"

Teach your kids to obey the Popos and take it up with the Judge later. Teach your kids to keep their machismo to themselves and to not disturb others in public. Teach them about property rights and the US Constitution.

Can’t speak for the others, but Zimmerman got put through the wringer and it was obvious at the end that there was no case against him, the cops were right not to initially arrest and refer for prosecution and that he was only tired to sate the bloodlust of certain socio-political demographic groups.

What should scare people is what these race hustling problem profiteers are really calling for: abandonment of presumption of innocence and due process in favor of summary judgement and instant condemnation.

Welcom to the Judge Dredd era ...

93% of black murders are committed by black people, in America.

“rightfully incensed”? Is this an editorial or news report? A lot of people are going to look like crap when this is over, but do they care? No, move on to the next lie.

“He hopes to channel his anger over the death of his son into a solution for black fathers who have come to teach their children to accept police brutality as a fact of life in the United States.”

Isn’t the real problem that most blacks don’t have fathers and grow up feral?

The big, bigger, biggest government that African-hyphen-Americans vote for as a 95% political collective isn’t big and brutal enough ... now they want to appeal to the world government ...

The melanin content of your skin doesn’t entitle you to scream racism when you attack someone and lose.

Only a racist claims the melanin content of their skin allows them to attack with impunity.

The stupidity is staggering. Had any of these idiot gone to school they may have learned that the UN doesn’t mean squat in this country. If they want UN nannies move to Africa.

America, to it's great harm, has bent over backwards to address race issue.
Affirmative action ignoramuses are in the process if degrading the nation.
The race pimps like "Resist We Much" Sharpton, and Jesse Jackass are getting filthy rich pimping racial divisiveness, in snyc with the leftist agenda to divide the people on every possible issue, e.g., race, gender, sexual orientation, economic, achievement, etc.
I suppose they are just too stupid and dishonest to heed the evolution of Frederick Douglass.
