Bull squat.
Forget the fact that most modern blacks wouldn't know what to do with the land or the mule --- The REAL promise offered blacks in America, goes far beyond 40 acers and a mule....
There is not another place on the planet where blacks have prospered as they have in America...
A war that nearly destroyed the nation, was fought partly to end slavery and to grant citizenship to slaves...
No betrayal of "the promise" to blacks is as great as the betrayal of blacks by their chosen race baiting poverty pimp leaders..
Too many blacks have remained on a plantation of their own making....looking to Government for their every need and believing the poverty pimps and folks like yourself telling them that the government broke a promise 150 years ago and that is what is responsible for "bad race relations"...
I say bull squat again..
This is the land of the free....
Blacks need to break their mental chains of victimization, hatred whitey and welfare and build a life for themselves.
Semper Fi
Hmm, I'm sure you don't really mean that.
"I say bull squat again.."
Oh, well maybe you have another point?
"Too many blacks have remained on a plantation of their own making....looking to Government for their every need and believing the poverty pimps and folks like yourself telling them that the government broke a promise 150 years ago and that is what is responsible for "bad race relations"..."
You misunderstand me. I don't try to tell blacks any such thing. I was just trying to explain to you what blacks often tell me when I ask about such stuff. I've never tried to tell a black person what to believe or feel about these issues. But, like I said, I do agree that they have legitimate complaints about these issues, amongst others. If you don't believe that, maybe you're not as well informed on the subject as you assume.
It's my opinion that these things do represent real problems that exist between the races. And I, personally, would like to see us have better relations. So, regardless of merit, I take such opinions seriously and try to find solutions.
And by the way, VMGR-252, MAG 14 (among others). Semper Fi.
