The Myth of Racist America
American Thinker ^ | December 2, 2016 | Lloyd Marcus

Posted on 12/02/2016 4:23:55 AM PST by Kaslin

Be honest. In your real-life everyday American experience, is racism an issue? I am confident that the answer is no. And yet the left (Democrats, Black Lives Matter, Hollywood, and mainstream media) have convinced many that America is a hotbed of racism where black boys are gunned down by cops for simply "walking while black." Words cannot express my contempt for the left's ongoing campaign to spread lies to generate racial hate and divide Americans solely for selfish political gain. The left poisoning young black minds with their lie that white America is their enemy robs blacks of realizing how blessed they are to be born in the greatest land of opportunity on the planet.

Cops shooting blacks is rare. When a cop does shoot a black, the cop is usually black or Hispanic. On the other hand, blacks are routinely killing each other in record numbers in major cities run by Democrats.

Is there racism in America? Absolutely! Racism will exist along with every other sin under the sun until Jesus takes us home. But is racism really an issue in the lives of most Americans? Absolutely not. Despite the left's efforts to make everything about race, the truth is, Americans of all races work and play together extremely well.

Black seniors are prone to experiencing "racism paranoia." I am in my late sixties. (Did I just say that out loud?) I remember suffering racism in my youth. Consequently, there have been situations in which I found myself anticipating racism only to be greeted with warmth and hospitality. I know blacks my age and older who are suffering racism paranoia – imagining racism in every situation, accusing innocent white store clerks, etc.

USA Today today has an article about how more blacks die in police chases, both as the chase and as bystanders, than whites. How about the fact that blacks tend to run while whites/Asians tend NOT to run? Statistics twisted to make a racist point.

If whites block voted for republicans to the extent that blacks and most other minorities vote democrat, 0bama never would have been president, and we wouldn’t have had Bill Clinton or Carter or Kennedy or Johnson either. We would also not have any democrat president for the next several election cycles.

White people are the only ones in the country that are specifically told that they cannot just block vote and cannot even consider their own interests.

Racism? Not everybody is going to like you. Get over yourself. People are free to like and dislike whomever that want for what ever reason they want. Get over it and get on with your life.

I used to make this argument in New York City after the Dinkins days. Did not make a bit of difference.
