WASHINGTON – Harry Belafonte, entertainer, long-time left-wing activist and admirer of Third World dictators, inserted himself into the national debate on gun control when he claimed “white Americans” who agitate for gun rights are ignoring the black “river of blood that washes the streets of our nation.”
The actor was on hand to be honored at the 2013 NAACP Image Awards when he asserted in his acceptance speech that the “group most devastated by America’s obsession with the gun is African Americans.”
“Although making comparisons can be dangerous, there are times when they must be noted,” he said. ‘America has the largest prison population in the world. And of the over 2 million men, women and children who make up the incarcerated, the overwhelming majority is black. We are the most unemployed, the most caught in the unjust systems of justice, and in the gun game, we are the most hunted.”
Belafonte continued: “The river of blood that washes the streets of our nation flows mostly from the bodies of our black children. Yet, as the great debate emerges on the question of the gun, white America discusses the constitutional issue of ownership, while no one speaks of the consequences of our racial carnage.”
Coverage of the NAACP Image Awards highlighted “Django Unchained” actor Jaime Foxx’s controversial........

Who (what color) pulls the trigger to create this “river of blood.” Belafonte’s brain has turned to banana mush. Right, Mr. Talley man?
I will celebrate when this prick becomes worm food.
Harry’s been a racist for ages. But no so much that he turned down the legions of white women who threw themselves at him in the 1960s.

I hate to say it but I actually laughed at the “river of blood” comment.
It’s whitey’s fault?
He must be losing it.

Back in the 1830s New England, Blacks were rioting because do gooders wanted to send them back to Africa. The free blacks considered themselves AMERICANS and not Africans and were born here so did not want to go.
I think he means that blacks can not handle freedom responsibly, so whitey has to surrender freedom so blacks can survive as slaves to Belafonte’s commie state.
He’s a raaaacis! Where I grew up, blacks struggled for whitey’s freedom, not Belafornte’s slavery.
“He must be losing it”....would presume he ever had it.
Go F yourself, you commie totalitarian loving dipsh#t. And yes, I know what a communist is from growing up in the "60's. I saw it all at the naive age of 17, I knew it wouldn't work even then. Not one commune lasted for more than a few years. They were all defunct by around 1970.
Here's a clue why, which you'll never understand:
It is entirely against human nature for those to strive for the betterment of themselves and even society, while those who know they will reap the same rewards and produce less. It simply has not and never will work due to human characteristics who prefer to enjoy fruits of their labor. I despise communists...and you are a communist.
BTW, how did communism work out for those under the Stalin, Mao, Castro, Chavez regimes, et al, not to mention other central government socialist nations like Rwanda and such? Go away you POS. Go join your them if you are so dedicated. Of course, you won't. You're just one more hypocritical communist who will continue to suck off the the good will of the USA. I despise you.
93% of black shooting victims were shot by those who voted Democrat
Well then, hold your white leadership accountable. Too much effort? Your white socialist politicians that you vote for time and again have made it so. Us so-called "racists" whites are now about protecting our own and why so many are buying weapons. We're done with you stupid racist accusations and the threat of black gangsters invading our homes. I read every day about the murders of black on black.
So yes, it's partially the fault of white liberal/socialists politicians for perpetuating your eternal victimhood, but mostly because your politicians just don't care, yet you keep voting for them because why?...they promise you stuff?
Harry, ever wonder why so many black Mother's wind up raising their children without a father and on welfare? That is not due to some conspiracy racist white cause. Tell me exactly how whites cause that? Tell me why so many black men leave their women once they get pregnant. Tell me. I dare you to explain that.
Hey Harry....I dare you to go live in a hood in Detroit for a couple of weeks...I dare ya....it won't be the white racist you'll need to worry about.....
blacks are way over represented in the NFL and NBA and other sports....that should certainly be changed...and they are over represented in the govt and the military....we can change that....and they are over represented in the criminal world, the world of drops outs, and the world of kids born out of wedlock...
A large number of blacks live in urban areas where gun use is illegal.
Harry’s making this up.
Ummmm, maybe blacks should start fallowing the law and quit glorifying criminals. As a percent of population blacks also have the highest number of :
school dropouts
AIDS infection
unwed mothers
You forgot.....”pathetic and depraved music.”
