America is weary of black resentment

No rap. I don't listen to it either except for what turns up in a movie or as examples on talk shows etc. of cultural disintegration and self destruction.

Mostly the word I hear then is the N word which everybody knows and which I hear often, but pretty much only from black people. Other than that it seems to be pretty much repetitive like, "rape a ho, kill a cop; kill a ho, rape a cop"...

A very few of the words I was afraid they might use innocently and get in trouble: spade, spook, jig... They had not heard those in school or on the street. When I was their age, I heard them often and all over the place. I thought that signaled some kind of improvement over the years.

OTOH the neighborhood (and schools) was changing pretty rapidly, but where we were then was changing mostly to Asian. It's possible I was living in something of an anomaly

Michelle should be uplifting others, any and all others, that they too can make it, tho the path be difficult and trying. That's not her message.

It sure isn't. I saw her on TV addressing a group and giving them the BS message from her "church": do NOT go into high paying jobs, do NOT aspire to "middle-classness", stay in humble service type employment to save your souls.

IOW: STAY DOWN!

My family has lost loved ones during the Civil War, in order to help free the slaves. I should be holding a grudge as well.

[Sal]

Actually our family had one Union Army Civil War casualty as well. Our guy died after the war, but as a result of injuries suffered during the war.

Who knows how much better off the family would have been had he not died too early fighting to free the slaves. Forget the grudge, I want reparations.

You’re right.

I’m 47, and have spent my life making sure that no black person I had contact with was ever made to felt than less than my equal, mostly, because it never occurred to me that they might be any less a person than me due to skin colour.

Sure, there were creepy people of every colour that I chose not to associate with, but never due to skin colour.

Then, the Obamas and Rev. Wright came along, and I suddenly realize that while I’ve been busy NOT hating them for the color of their skin, they have been doing enough hating for the both of us.
Not all of them, to be sure, but many more that I suspected existed.

Moved race relations back a generation? Try two.

[fanfan]

It is my belief that the greater number of Blacks will never be free... not until they realize that they have been free for decades.

Bump.

[bannie]

They marinate in crippling history.

What a great description!

[Solitar]

Yes, Champions of the mixed Black race could use that as a reason why other disadvantaged or refugee people have done more for themselves in one generation than most Blacks have done for themselves in five generations. But then they might also have to face up that being one of the major reason why they've done so poorly -- The Bell Curve. They might also have to admit that the reason they have done so well compared to their African counterparts is that they are a mixed White/Black race. Barack Obama owes a lot more, such as more than 30 IQ points, to his White mother than he gives her credit for.

FYI PING!

[bert]

Obama is part ArabAfrican and his heritage is slaver.

The reparations crowd should be asking for his head.

[bert]

........Part of the problem is that the blacks have a huge inferiority complex,........

There is a very large lazy component that rules large sections of the black males.

[Sal]

Then, the Obamas and Rev. Wright came along, and I suddenly realize that while I’ve been busy NOT hating them for the color of their skin, they have been doing enough hating for the both of us.

Thank you, fanfan. That was exactly what I was trying to say with a lot more words and a lot less clearly.

Not all of them, to be sure, but many more that I suspected existed.

Again, same here.

[Choose Ye This Day]

I’m not sure how I got on this ping list. Could you remove me, please? Thanks.

[fanfan]

No, Thank You!

[Reeses]

there’s no reason for me to feel guilty.

That's because white guilt is not guilt at all, it's really a desire to deflect resentment. And resentment is just a cloaked word meaning envy. Some blacks envy whites and some whites desire to appease their enviers.

You will never get anyone to admit to envying anything though because it extremely socially taboo and brings shame on the envier. I have come to the conclusion that this shame reaction is the most effective way to deal with them. Appeasement is not the way to go. Calling someone on their envy is the best way to bounce their wickedness back at them.

Some blacks envy whites and some whites desire to appease their enviers.

And some whites just don't have the courage to defend themselves against these PC insinuations.
