Americans spelled it out in black and white.
The public discourse on race relations rattled with mixed emotions after Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr.'s bold assertion that the U.S. is a "nation of cowards" when addressing the realities of the ethnic melting pot.

Actually, I agree with Holder. We ARE a nation of racial cowards. Just look how we cower and snivel every time JJ or Big Al play the race card. Look how we refer to islam as the “religion of peace” when they’re a bunch of homicidal barbarians. Look how we are afraid to identify black perps as black perps, especially when they attack whitey.
We ARE a nation of cowards, just not in the way Mr. Holder meant.
You got your discussion, moron.
(That was directed at Holder, btw, not anyone here.)
Holder the race pimp is out pushing his product.
I’m a 90% disabled combat VET but a coward, and he’s a hero because he can talk on a microphone about race. Got it.

There is another class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongspartly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs
There is a certain class of race-problem solvers who do not want the patient to get well, because as long as the disease holds out they have not only an easy means of making a living, but also an easy medium through which to make themselves prominent before the public.

Hey Holder, there are still far more whites than blacks in this country. Do you REALLY want to light that fire?
The race whining is over, Holder. You got your socialist into the White House, so just shut up now.
You got it.
Bingo!! Institutional racism is well accepted and tolerated in hiring, contract awards, politics, and every civil discourse imaginable across the country. Ironically, anybody that objects to these racist practices are shouted down as racists and bigots. Orwellian speak?
A black person, however, can say any vile, racist thing that enters their empty little head and if anybody mentions it, the person taking note is the racist.
See how that works?
I don’t understand how a black man who would need body guards if he stepped into the ghetto can stand there and claim white Americans are racists. I’m not a racist - I am equally afraid of white, black, latino, and asian thugs!
Why would I want to talk to idiots?
really?

Where justice is denied, where poverty is enforced, where ignorance prevails, and where any one class is made to feel that society is an organized conspiracy to oppress, rob and degrade them, neither persons nor property will be safe.

We’ve been treated to the reality of black to white racial hatred for the past couple of years that Barry has been running;
we’ve been treated to disproportionate crime, bloodshed, illegitimacy, economic inefficiencies and whining for decades;
and now we’re called “cowards” for not talking about race issues.
He may be right. It’s time we grew spines, stood up and had a really honest discussion about a CULTURE which is self-destructive, societally destructive, and a big drag on the rest of us.
Holder is a simpleton who is worthy of nothing but derisive laughter.
