The black community is deeply lost and is a puppet of the devil himself. It is so very, very clear where their systemic resentments have taken them and a lesson to us all to learn the action and behavior of forgiveness. The heart will follow or the change of heart will dictate the action and behavior.

The inability to forgive and move on to life and to live in resentment is at works here and always will be until something changes. Sad their children will pay the price generation after generation. I will continue to pray that the black community is relieved of its bondage of self from resentment and lack of forgiveness and thus relieved of the bondage of evil.

Ironic they condemn whites for past slavery but they are slaves to themselves now in a worse way.

There is nothing to forgive. That is the real thing they need to learn. There is no black man alive who was ever a slave in the US, nor is there a white man alive who was ever a slave owner in the US. Most people alive in this country aren't even old enough to have experienced the southern Jim Crow days. The younger black generations have been brainwashed into thinking that they have a cause for grievance, but they don't.

In fact, it is the younger white generations that should be pissed. They are practically second-class citizens, between Affirmative Action, hate crimes that only apply to white people, every minority free to say whatever insulting thing he wants to and about white people but white people having to walk on eggshells around minorities, and now two of the six bastards who rat-packed a white kid are being celebrated on television.

What black Americans need to realize is, for those that haven't already figured it out, that no man will ever succeed until he takes responsibility for his own success. Each man must make it happen. Waiting for things to be handed to you, and then blaming whitey when they're not, is a recipe for slavery.

Great post. Taking it a bit further:

Where is the black church?

I don't mean the "Just Us" fake, race-baiting reverends like Al and Jesse,

Where are the black ministers?

The last time I saw them on TV, they were marching on "Chuck's Gun Shop," in Riverdale, IL, protesting a legal business selling a legal product.

When we see heart-broken black women on the news, sobbing because their young child was just killed in a drive-by shooting, we all sympathize. But, why don't we see the religious leaders offering support and speaking out against the insane violence that occurs in their community on a daily basis?

It seems to me that the black ministers have given up. They leave their primary responsibility to a few brave souls like Bill Cosby, Juan Williams, Shelby Steele and Alvin Poussaint to tell it like it is and take the heat from the MSM.

That's just not right. The black church has to be the instrument of change.
