“We white Americans all-too-seldom reflect upon the issue of racism”

Hey buddy! I did not give you permission to say “WE”

Speak for yourself. I’m sick of idiots like you saying that all Whites are racist even if they’re not.

I’ve been thinking about the race issue a lot lately and I can think of many people of different races that I like and cut up with on a personal level. And then I read all this divisive crap online and I feel my blood pressure rising and I realize I’m being played by a divisive MSM and the political powers that be. I realize my emotions are being manipulated and that they fear most is a uniting of people of all colors against them as one; good vs evil and they can’t have that. We really need to put the race issue aside and oust this cancer.

But if it were HIV we would be encouraged to “gift” it to our partners.

The charge of "Racism" is the universial solvent that dissolves every trace of reality in a liberal.

And when blacks torture and kill whites it is no big deal. Many of us have heard this one way, non-stop guilt rubbish for way too long.

race issues will never be put aside- they need to continue for people like obama, holder, jesse jackson and al sharpton to remain relevant...

the same way demoKrats need people to remain poor to stay relevant, there are a bunch of left wing extreme liberals, who are often black, that need racism to exist so they remain relevant...

I couldn’t help but wonder whether or not this man would have ever been stopped, were it not for his race.

So the basis for this entire finger-pointing article is nothing more than his unhinged wondering, without any evidence whatsoever.

Got it.

I'm now working on my next article where I couldn't help but wonder whether Bishop Gene Robinson (Retired) wears a condom when he's having sexual relations with pigs and goats.

When the man resisted, he was held in a chokehold

Another question you might ask is; if it were not for this man’s race would he have resisted.

You might ask; has the Black community been so infused with the racist orthodoxy that all whites are racist and that the law enforcers are racist in every arrest of Blacks that the moment that a LEO talks to a Black caught in the obvious commission of a crime that they immediately become belligerent and resist arrest.

Racism is not just a White Thing. Each man is responsible for his own actions.

The arresting officers may have been unprofessional and may have acted excessively considering the offence but the deceased is not without blame. Had he submitted to the arrest he would be alive today.

Probably suffers from wet brain syndrome, and is confusingly projecting his views as those of people that have morals and values foreign to him.

Progressive logic:

Do you like obama or Holder? No? That's Racism, hater.

Do you like Biden or Reid? No? That's Ageism, hater.

Do you like Hillary or Pelosi? No? That's Sexism, hater.

Do you like GW Bush? No?!? Lol, I guess not even a racist, sexist who hates old people could be that stupid.

No, and there is no racism (at least in me). It’s not an issue that I’m even a bit worried about!

Some people just need to hold onto their victim hood status. Institutional racism ended in the early sixties. MLK’s famous speech has always been hailed as a rallying cry...not the victory speech it actually was.

Most white people, even back then, were not racists, and the ones that were racists are thankfully long gone. In short, the changing that white America had do, happened years ago. It’s now way past time for black America to change. It’s obviously a hard step, but clinging to old notions of racial bigotry is a guaranteed failure. Instead of choosing black leaders that lift up black people, black America still wants to hear how its being held down and held back.

Black America relishes in its victim hood status and until someone leads them out of the state of mind, they will continue to have broken families, broken hearts, and broken dreams. They will continue to allow themselves to be used and abused by hucksters like Barack Obama and Al Sharpton.

My uncle told me something years ago that I cling to to this day: In life, you are either going to make progress or make excuses why you’re not making progress. It’s that simple.

Black America has chosen to make excuses why it’s not making progress. It’s not only disappointing. In some ways it’s more sad than actual racism because it’s self imposed failure.

The last time I was called names by a mentally ill person it was because I put only a five spot in his tin cup, when he noticed I had a ten and some twenties in my wallet.

I care even less about what this mentally ill person thinks about me.
