The weariness, the rage, the depressing conviction that black life is stuck in a murderous loop fueled by racismthese emotions resounded in black America after the deadly shootings at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, South Carolina.
Nine people who had gathered to pray in one of the main sanctuaries of black lifethe churchwere slain.
This, following a string of black men killed after coming into contact with police officers in cities across America and racist actions on campuses. Even though African-Americans are long accustomed to dealing with difficulty where their race is concerned, the confluence of events appeared to be taking a toll.
We really are a people who are suffering from racial battle fatigue, political essayist and commentator Chauncey DeVega said Thursday.

as far as i know, they are still operational. I would max out my credit card to send 3 or 4 back. But they can NEVER come back.
The sad thing is without whites killing them, there would be no murder of blacks, by the THOUSANDS by other blacks. I’ve abandoned the /s thing on the more glaring posts. Hope that’s not against the rules.
What this guy did was horrific, and i wish at least would have taken out drug dealers.
But you keep pushing a people too far, bad things are going to happen.
If you keep calling an entire race bad guys, soon some of them will act like it.
But to die during bible study rips my heart out.
I’m fatigued from all of the fake race victim stories.
When a real wolf shows up, the senses have already been dulled.
I’ve been fatigued since 2008.

Now that I think of it, a 21 year old US citizen who was able to source a pre-apartheid South African flag is probably pretty good at finding hard-to-get things.
The media’s 0bama-led campaign to stoke racial animus is working.
I can appreciate they are getting tired of the constant black-on-black violence and on the high percentage of their racial/ethnic/cultural group that commit violent crimes. Blaming everyone else for this is not helpful.
The thing about pounding a drum incessantly is that sooner or later the pounder gets tired of it too.
In fact, this horrible church shooting sends one back to the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing and deaths of the four little girls in Atlanta in 1963 to find a comparable atrocity.
“There are twice as many blacks murdered by whites than the other way around.”
I’ve never seen that statistic.
It’s just what obummer has been pushing for. Hatred all around. He thrives on it like that creature from a Star Trek episode.
Then he goes and plays golf. What a worthless, miserable piece of garbage.
Would that ONE republican would point out the rapes by illegals, the huge black on black crime rate, and the statistics on black on white crime vs. vice versa.
make this an anti-white thing.. |

Black lives matter when and only when the homicide is done by a white and all white Americans are guilty. Period.
from the article: The horror.. hanging a noose in public places.. most times past IIRC the person doing it was black. The white guy prosecuted for putting a noose around the neck of a statue mentioned. All references to past stories to enhance the tenor of the article.
I wonder how many other AP articles include references to horrors like the white family and maid tortured for hours, murdered -- the child I believe it was reported, burned alive. I am sure the AP did at least report that recent crime but it's old news now never to be mentioned again.
Here are the federal statistics with links to federal government sources here. Use the links to use federal government web sites instead my "wall of numbers".
Crime is not entirely white police, white neighborhood watch, and whites in general violence against Black Americans. But as oft noted.. truth is racist.
So maybe, instead of living in “food deserts” they should try to live in “race-bait deserts”. That they think they, versus their elected representatives, benefit one iota from this agitation, is naive. But this has been going on for 50 years.
The fact of the matter is that all of us have scrapes on our knees. Some people cannot resist picking at the scabs endlessly and reopening the wound. Others, smarter others I would posit, put the things out of their mind, leave them alone and as the left is so fond of saying move “forward”. And then...the magic happens. Some force bigger than they are and observably more intelligent, makes the problem go away.
What about the rash of “knockout game” incidents?! Those were solely black against white! Random attacks throughout the country. Some died, some are vegetables, most had to have cranial surgery of some sort. No “fatigue” articles when that “game” was popular.
Obama is showing his failure to them. Big time.

Yeah, like a .45 pistol in his Christmas stocking.
If the same nine who were shot in the church were instead to have been shot, one at a time, over the course of a weekend in Chicago/Philadelphia/Baltimore, nobody would have given it a second thought.
