Geez, stow your outrage. Here are my only three points:
1) Slavery sucked. And comparing it to indentured servitude, or “having to pay high taxes” is a ridiculous argument. I can think of few things worse than being owned by another person with no hope of freedom. And I’m really sick of hearing “well, it really wasn’t THAT bad.”
2) The people marching in Selma in 1965 had legitimate grievances. They couldn’t vote. The state was ignoring federal laws in several areas. People could be murdered by the police or civilians with no investigation done whatsoever. (REALLY murdered, not this fake Trayvon, Michael Brown crap). So I really can’t find fault with someone who wanted to peacefully march across a bridge in support of some basic rights.
3) The Black community got everything they wanted from the civil rights era.... now they just want free money and the ability to terrorize their own neighborhoods without the cops bothering them. You CANNOT link what happened in Selma in 1965 to what is going on today. Those marches were legitimate (IMHO); the ones today are not.
If those are your only three points, why did you throw in the gratuitous obscentiy of the whipping photo? Was it from Selma? No.
Climb down from your high horse.
