We are one Nation, there are Americans of all colors and creeds. The uniting vision should be of all of the opportunities America has given for people from every race, national origin and religion to overcome the odds by work, vision & perseverance to reach their potential and to obtain the blessings of liberty for themselves and their posterity.
Those who believe that thrive; those that fall prey to the grievance peddlers that would use them fall.
I suggest you examine your conscience and look more carefully at the people that share our Nation.
There are hoods in the “hoods but there is trash in the trailer parks too.
Bad attitude doesn’t respect color. The black entertainers and athletes who posture and push “Black” separatism are the enemy not the millions of hard working Black men & women who are good neighbors, volunteer in their communities, serve in the armed forces and have the same dreams, ambitions and sorrows as every other American.
These last 8 years have been very divisive and it is going to take good people on both sides to bridge the gap. Our President doesn’t see color, he sees people.
I agree 100% and would add that without belief in and adherence to, the moral foundation that is founded on belief in God, the above is not possible.
Kind of black and gay and you would not understand anyway. I watch zero NFL and NBA
My conscience is clear.
The black entertainers and athletes who push separatism are enabled by the millions of other blacks who buy their products and support them. They are cowed by the “acting white” meme and not down with the struggle, etc. So they are not standing up to these bullies who are trying to seize power to exact some level of revenge for their perceived grievances.
I am not having any of it any longer. I am done. My tolerance for them and all who espouse, tolerate, or acquiesce to the troublemakers is zero.
The burden is not on me. It is on them. Tow the line, follow the law, behave like civilized people instead of savages, stop killing each other, stop having children out of wedlock, start being positive and productive and maybe we can talk. Until then, I will not give them the benefit of the doubt any longer.
Until blacks collectively reject these troublemakers (i.e. Sharpton, Jesse Jackson et. al.) look to jail the criminal element in their midst (Trayvon Martin, Micheal Brown et.al.) instead of lionizing them, and create a more attractive culture that is positive about being American then we have nothing left to discuss.

So by your logic white Americans are likewise in the doghouse because they do not rise up as a whole and repudiate the violent, hate filled Liberal culture which attacks any Conservative thought.
