Destruction in black America is self-inflicted
Jewish World Review ^ | 6 Sept 2007 | Jeff Jacoby

Posted on 09/06/2007 9:43:55 AM PDT by Titus Quinctius Cincinnatus

After the debate, a young black woman accosted me indignantly. Ninety-plus percent of black blood is shed by black hands? What about all the victims of white supremacists? Hadn't I heard of lynching? Hadn't I heard of James Byrd, who died so horribly in Jasper, Texas? When I assured her that Byrd's murder by whites was utterly untypical of most black homicide, she was dubious. So I asked for an e-mail address, and promised to send her a link to the FBI's violent-crime statistics.

I thought of that young woman when I read recently about James Ford Seale, the former Mississippi Klansman sentenced last month to three life terms in prison for his role in murdering two black teenagers 43 years ago. The killing of Charles Moore and Henry Dee in 1964 was one of several unsolved civil-rights-era crimes that prosecutors in the South have reopened in recent years. Seale's trial was a vivid reminder of the days when racial contempt was a deadly fact of life in much of the country. His sentence proclaims even more vividly the transformation of America since then. White racism, once such a murderous force, is now associated mostly with feeble has-beens.

"I always say that the GOP could capture the black vote. It would take time and effort, but it could happen. I don't think I see enough effort by the party."

We could put in all the time and effort in the world, but they still have to want to live self sufficiently to switch to the conservative side.

Like Rush says, it's hard to be a conservative. The easy way is to give up and say "Here I am Uncle Sam, put me on the freebie list"

And that option may be one of the only ones available to those who thought it wasn't cool to try to get an education when they had a chance.

The “Great Society” might as well have been called “The Black Family Destruction Act”.

Black America needs to divide by class.

Perhaps the first step was at the meeting sponsored by Black Enterprise magazine, when a comedian hired to entertain instead insulted the audience. They ended his performance and asked him to leave.

Middle and upper-class black Americans are pursuing the American dream. They have and are achieving prosperity and success for themselves and their posterity. They have become educated, and most are erudite and can effectively communicate and participate with the rest of society.

However, the black underclass is like an anchor to them. It embarrasses them, it patronizes them, it degrades them, and yes, it is violent, murderous and dehumanizing to them.

They need to divorce themselves from the failures, the criminals, the ignorant and stupid, the violent and crude.

To middle and upper class black Americans, to have anything to do at all with the black underclass should be an insult. Sharing the same color of skin is as meaningless as sharing the same color of blood.

To be patronized by *anyone* with this association should be taken as an insult *worse* than the “n” word.

When middle and upper class Black America realize this, and do something about it, then we will all see some real racial change in American.

“My guess would be more than half are gang-related.” Thats why the shootings and murders in the major cities are not such a big deal. The victims for the most part are just other thugs who will or have already killed someone. The perps are also thugs who will at some point, kill again or be killed. They are just doing the cleansing that the guvmint won’t do. Criminals target each other, trend shows In Milwaukee ... found that 77% of homicide victims in the past two years had an average of nearly 12 arrests. http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2007-08-31-criminal-target_N.htm

I say it’s futile, so let it go. The GOP would be much better off taking hardline stands against racism against Anglos and Asians. You know the racist code words inherent in “affirmative action” and “diversity.”

Black and Mexican gang on gang murder is TOO INFREQUENT..

We should be arming ALL gangs with the finest firearms - and spread rumors, insults and invitations to rumble...

Encouraging and assisting them to kill each other in LARGE NUMBERS is the ONLY way society can rid ourselves of these worthless cockroaches.....

Our “Justice System” approach has had decades to make a difference..
It hasn’t...
Time for more effective and PERMANENT measures...

A minimum investment in the “Extermination Approach” would certainly be a better return on investment than the frequent incarceration costs or expenses of dealing with the criminals and their impact on society....

It is good to remove them permanently from the gene pool...

Some folks simply need kill’n....

Maybe it’s because some of them have a habit of saying, “I have to axe you...”

But only if you “Dis” me?

Teach them to not date losers who can’t keep their pants up, keep a job, bother with education and have no desire to better themselves.

Frankly, if that’s all you can find as a black women when looking at black men, simply don’t date black men.

The fate of poor urban blacks will only be changed when black women step up... your “men” by and large are incapable of stepping up. Until you shut them off, and force them to change, they aren’t going to.

Stop settling for being someones baby’s momma, and keep your legs closed. Have some damned self respect.

From beginning to end I agree with your whole statement. It’s 100% right on the money. I remember taking Administration of Justice in college in the early 70’s. The stats then were about the same as today. Fifty percent of all murders then were committed by 11% of the population.
