Isn't that what they're saying in the aftermath of Obama's little slam against the Cambridge, MA police?
I'm getting a bit tired of hearing so many self-described experts telling us how this whole Henry Gates incident should bring us all to the table so we can have a dialogue on race.
Do we need such a dialogue? Oh hell yes we do. But it just ain't going to happen. In this age of political correctness the only possible direction such a dialogue could take would be a forum on all of the terrible things whites have done to blacks and all the things that whites need to do to make things right.
Do white wrongs have a place in the discussion? Absolutely. Racism, bigotry and prejudice ... all part of the equation. But that's not the entire picture ... Let me share just a few of the things that would be taboo in such a dialogue.
First, insofar as Henry Gates is concerned; I doubt very seriously that the dialogue would include any information as to what percentage of home break-ins in and around Boston and Cambridge are committed by blacks.
There is no way you might be able to suggest that the police were acting on experience given the fact that blacks are more likely to be involved in criminal activity in the Boston area than whites or other minorities.
And you damned sure wouldn't be able to bring the idea that much of the problems experienced by the black community are due to culturalism rather than racism.
Don't even begin to suggest that it might be black culture, rather than poverty and discrimination, which lead to high incidences of black crime. And for God's sake, don't mention the anti-education, anti-learning mentality that suffocates so many young black boys and girls. You know ---- the culture in which a young black teenager is accused of trying to "act white" if he or she so much as raises a hand to ask a question in class.
Yeah ... we need a dialogue. Let' me know when we can get that started. Every time I've ever even brushed those topics lightly on the air it has unleashed charges of racism --- the one sure way to discussing what really might be going on. So ... y'all just get your dialogue going and let me know how it works out for you.
0 and Gates are going to use this as a “teaching opportunity”. Uh, I think most of us have already learned that racism is deepest in 0’s universe with his buddy Gates (not to mention “Rev” Wright).
‘Dialogue’ is code speak......For you give me millions and you take your whitey ass to the woods....
Until ALL parties are ready to hear the truth Obama & his kind can stick their “dialogue’.
0bama wants to get rid of old people, sick people, disabled people, and lets face it, white people!
Oh, don’t pay Neal any mind. That’s just the Georgia Cracker in him talkin’. :)
Any radio operator will tell you, there is no dialogue when one station is on “transmit only”
You are tuned....And for those of us that is old, disabled, sick, and white....we will be #1 on his list.
Neal is a good ole Texas boy from way back....
The only meaningful Conservation on Race will take place when a lot of people start saying "Your ghetto culturre has damaged America. The hip hop, the clothing, the "attitide", the lack of manners, the swearing, the promiscuity, the drugs and the gangs -- all of it is damaging, and I plan to openly discriminate against any and all evidence of this cultural corruption."
Next election, you will see just how many Americans are sick and tired of the race industry now that obama has been shown to be its leader...
Where is a statement from Harvard on how abusive and racist Gates was towards this Police Officer, and how he tried to smear him in the public?
Are they going to discipline their prof? Apologize for their Prof's racist berating of another human being?
Is it Harvard that is pushing to have the tapes squashed of Gate's awful language toward the cop?
Harvard should fire Gates. They will never do it but they should. They fired their ex Harvard Presdient for comments that men and women are different.
“DIALOGUE” means bowing to their racial ideological weapon.
You whiteys MUST ADMIT AND SAY THAT you are racists and that blacks are pure innocent people and that you must give us a lot of benefits,the best positions,US presidency....again and again forever.
Like ze great people of ZIMBABWE, KENYA, SUDAN...
OK man?
STOP POLITICAL CORRECTNESS and the intellectual treachery
As I said in another thread - my give-a-damn about “race” stopped working a while back. I don’t need no damn “dialog” about race and I don’t really care what anyone else thinks (unless it’s my fellow freepers!)
And that's just for starters! How long would it be before the cost of treating a gravely ill child would be weighed against the % of possibility for said child to live and be productive?
Culture of death alert!
This slippery slope we are on is caused DIRECTLY by the abortion mentality--or to be PC, a right to choose. Right to choose is such an ironic phrase when it has been responsible for taking away rights to choose--for babies, fathers, --ultimately everyonenot Obama's "save" list.
