“Afterwards, all we heard was we have to integrate the police departments, they are too white. All the cities that rioted last night all have black police chiefs now and majority have black mayors too and you see how much that helped.”
We heard the same thing regarding the schools inability to educate black kids. We need busing = fail. We need more black teachers= fail. We need more black Principals = Fail. We need more blacks on school boards = fail. We need more Black school superintendants= fail. Now it’s we need to stop punishing black kids for misbehaving. Everything they told us we needed to do to improve black test scores have failed totally. All its done is to put more incompetents in positions of power and who are running things into the ground. The one thing that hasn’t been tried and will never be tried, is changing the dysfunctional black culture.

The Great Society by LBJ is not America. The Welfare State is not America. America is work, strive, achieve, learn, work, strive, achieve, keep learning, keep achieving.

The radical left such as this guy sees this as a prime opportunity to overthrow the Constitution of the USA and to replace it with black power/marxism/islam or some such other failed ideology. Yes, it’s a revolution. The revolution they dreamed of for years.
The revolution will fail, but what will they demand and get? reparations? they already have that. Special privileges in hiring? they already have that. Free housing? they already have that. Free money? they already have that. A black president? they already had that, and he failed.

Cornel West, perhaps much to his credit, has seemed high on some functioning drugs at least 90% of the times I have seen him over the past three decades.
He blows so much wind we ought to call him ..... "Category 4 West".

the riots of the 1960s were the death knell of every major city in this country. Afterwards, all we heard was we have to integrate the police departments, they are too white. All the cities that rioted last night all have black police chiefs now and majority have black mayors too and you see how much that helped. I live in Detroit...not the suburbs, but within the city limits. Ive seen it all as you can imagine..up close. I know and talk to blacks 30 to 40 years of age that have never been to a wedding ..ever. The schools are gone, and the ones that did attend school were mocked mercilessly for doing so. Drive around the city and all you see are groups making home made gangsta rap videos...the thug life is glorified...i know at least 20 people that pretend they are mentally ill, get on SSI, then go to shady doctors for pain pills and xanax which they sell every month. Its an automatic here. The first thing they lose, if they even bother to get one, is a drivers license. Also, sorry to say...but they absolutely just hate each other...you wouldnt believe the horrible racist names they call each other...im talking small children too. I would take some of the kids to macdonalds when they were hungry, the granny was buying 70 dollars worth the lottery tickets a day and could care less...and i would literally yell at them to stop calling each other those names. You see huge fist fights in parking lots,,,cars constantly running red lights...horrible neighborhood car accidents...go into a gas staion and crack cocaine samples are shoved into your hands,,whether you want it or not. Its all just a bizarre existence. Just shake your head...all you can do.If you live in a zoo, expect to see chimps.

HOW ABOUT A CUP OF STHU, CORNELL?
Interesting - on Fox an old astronaut was interviewed about the differences between the old NASA astronauts and now - he said he is concerned that the program doesn’t have the ‘best test pilots’ because they had to go find women and blacks.
THAT social experiment should be ended.
