If you want to see a sane black man speak about the Martin/Zimmerman phenomena, this is it.
Very well stated.
This guy is spot on. His comments on rioting are something many people in the black community don’t understand.
There were times when many businesses, black, white, jewish, etc. were in close proximity to black communities.
After the riots in the Sixties, many of them packed up and left those communities. Blacks in those communities were left bereft of goods, services, and most importantly, jobs.
There are many blacks who use this “white flight” as prima facie evidence of racism.
They miss the point completely.
Holy cow, this man is my idea of a leader. He’s right. The black communities are killing themselves by promoting riots and all because they’re ignorant of the law and ignorant of how things work in this country. Blacks want to see eye-for-an-eye type of justice in this country, but that’s not how a civil society works.
Thousands of blacks die every year from black-on-black crime and through abortion, but one neighborhood watch volunteer shoots a suspicious-looking black teen who’s beating him mercilessly and all of a sudden there’s a reason for the black communities to be irate?
Travon Martin was a feral black.
“Travon Martin was a feral black.”
That is what happens when anyone is raised without moral standards, discipline or decent role models.
A good number of people of all races are able to pull themselves out of it and into the larger community, but it is harder for young black men, because they have been indoctrinated with so many excuses as to why it is *not* their fault, and they do not have to take any responsibility for their actions.
I am really surprised about this verdict, especially after Eric Holder allowed the NBP to commit a federal hate crime against white voters.
He must have not had the authority to influence a state murder trial.
I’ve just watched more than one video from this guy. He makes too much sense for negro understanding. Tons of hateful comments from his ‘bros’ proves it well.
He took a jab at MLK that I found offensive, but other than that he was spot on accurate. Maybe the GZ case will be a turning point for Black America....
Well said. I’ve been saying this same thing for years.
I thought his comment about “strong leadership” was not fully directed the right way.
I got the impression his “strong leadership” comments were directed to figures in the black community, church leaders, politicians, etc.
They don’t NEED that kind of “strong leadership”, although it wouldn’t hurt.
What they need is “strong leadership” from an intact family unit in general, and “strong leadership” from a black father in particular.
It is so true that Democrats and the liberal welfare machine put in place in 1964 have done more to destroy the black community than any other single thing, probably including overt racism.
As Thomas Sowell has pointed out in his excellent books, the black family was largely still intact up until the early sixties. The riots that compelled “white flight” were merely cement that hold them fast into the problems created by the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
SOMEBODY PLEASE GET THIS VIDEO OVER TO FOX NEWS ASAP! HE SHOULD BE THEIR NEW LEADER. OUT WITH THE TROUBLE MAKERS - SHARPTON AND JACKSON.HE IS GREAT!
Okay. That was a stab at MLK. I was pondering that, didn’t know what to make of it. I have never heard that expression, and couldn’t figure out what he said.
At first, I thought he just got his tongue tied and it came out that way, but it seemed improbable.
I thought he said “Martin Luther Cohen” but in looking it up in the Internet, he must have been saying “Martin Luther Coon” since that is the only epithet that came back.
I wonder why he would say that. It seemed off message, and would only inflame people he might have been trying to reach.
Well on the same page; there is a video of black panthers and one of them giving a speech to kill crackers. Little children, the little girls and boys. Why is he not arrested. Sounds like terrorism to me. It’s a crazy, sick world.
Wonderful, thanks for posting. This video and the GZ verdict give me a glimmer of hope that O’s agenda is totally backfiring in the black community. Praise be to God. Who is this guy, btw?
Thanks for posting this. It is simply awesome front beginning to end. I am encouraged that he talks about a “small groundswell”.
Hopeful.

I am a little more impressed with this guy, he doesn’t start his video with a big cigar and he is less inflammatory in my opinion.
I always wonder why some people “see”, and others do not.
In context of his other plays on words, the reference was clearly to Martin Luther “Cohn”, which would indicate SOME influence in his background from Louis Farrakhan.
