The rude ambush of Vice-President elect Mike Pence by a cast member of the Broadway Musical, “Hamilton”, has outraged a large cross-section of the American citizenry.
The actor expressed alarm and anxiety that the Trump-Pence Administration will not protect and defend “a diverse group of men and women of different colors, creeds and orientations”, and uphold their inalienable rights.
The liberal left likes to preach that there should be a “conversation” between both sides to settle our differences. But when a cheap shot is taken in a venue where a response is not practicable, THAT AIN’T CONVERSATION, BUDDY, THAT’S “BULLYING”.
Let’s review what great “improvements” have been enjoyed by these minorities over the past eight years of the Obama Administration:
"Under the leadership of America’s first black president, black people have been the biggest losers. Here are the numbers:
• 25% of black households live below the poverty line as compared to eight percent for white households.
• One out of three black children lives in poverty.
• Blacks are twice as likely as whites to be unemployed.
• Blacks earn $13,000 less per year than their white counterparts.
• The unemployment rate of African Americans has consistently been twice as high as for whites over the last 50 years.
• For every $100 in wealth of a white household, the black household only has $6 in wealth.
Thanks to Obama, gun violence in America is rising. Blacks are suffering the most because they are six times more likely to commit a homicide than whites and seven times more likely to be a victim of a homicide than whites. Crime has escalated thanks to Obama stoking the race wars in America." Source: The Telegraph (UK)
I’d like to venture a prediction:
I predict that, after four (or, hopefully, eight) years of the Trump-Pence Administration, whose intentions are being questioned by this actor, the plight of the minorities of this country will be significantly improved over their present condition.
And as far as caring about the planet, maybe Mr./Ms. Dixon can ‘splain why his/her cohorts leave the planet a mess after their get-togethers.
Too bad dueling is no longer legal.
“Too bad dueling is no longer legal.”
I don’t think that would be a good idea.
Remember, in Hamilton’s case, the good guy lost.
“leave the planet a mess after their get-togethers.”
Of course, due to the double standard, they’re not required to clean up after themselves.
