Compare Harlem in the 1920s to Detroit today. What changed? The massive proliferation of the entitlement mentality. Begun under FDR, sharpened to a fine point under LBJ, and used to destroy the black community ever since.

Now, they haven’t helped themselves much either (re: general “thug” culture). And stories like this one here serve to strongly increase the close-to-boiling anger that whites feel against them for the demands for handouts, reparations, affirmative action, lots of violent crime perpetrated against whites (and quickly covered up by a “tolerant” media), etc.

“White anger” is very real and more than a little justified, but hurling invective, especially at a FReeper who is trying to understand the underlying issues at work here, is counterproductive to put it mildly.

Prepare yourself, your family, try to help others who will listen to see the light. That’s all you can do while still being a productive member of society. That’s all we ask of blacks, too, right?

I’m not saying you should be afraid to be called a “racist,” but that doesn’t mean you should make blatantly inappropriate statements either.

I wasn't living in Harlem in the 1920's but I was living in Chicago in the 50's and remember all too well that whites didn't take no crap from blacks, like they do today. I'm sure the same held true in 1920 New York.

Whites leave blacks to their own devices and all hell always break loose, Detroit, East St. Louis, Gary, Ind etc etc. As for hurling invectives at another Freeper, I have no idea what you're talking about. And AGAIN there's nothing inappropriate for me bringing up the idea of an inherent tribal instinct that may be part of the reason for out of control spiraling violence among blacks.

If that's offends you, well tell that to all the 32 or so whites in Denver that got the crap beat out of them by packs of blacks for no reason.

Your comments make me believe that you haven't read through this entire thread. Compare your charge to my commentary here, and I think you'll see that it's unjustified.

Here's the comment by whatisthetruth that I first replied to. It's my reply to this comment that I believe prompted your post to me:

"Must be some sort of innate jungle tribal instinct just too difficult for their race to overcome."

I disagree that my reply to that comment was inappropriate.

You said:

This is a true statement, and is at the root of the degradation and failure we see rampant in the black community today. I've seen the slide during my own lifetime, and can attest that liberal initiatives and social engineering in the black community have largely been the cause.

Not every black person, and not every black family has become the effect of this diabolical intrusion from the left. My own family successfully repelled this insanity due to strong group morals and ethics, which were handed down and reinforced by successive generations. Not everyone was as lucky as I was, to have been born into such a family.

As for me, I have to continue to keep my focus on the larger fight at hand, and that is the fight we're all a part of. We must execute a successful second American Revolution to restore this nation to its founding ideals and traditions. Hopefully, we can do this peacefully, though there's no guarantee of that.

When the patriotic right has restored our nation to some semblance of its former glory and greatness, then disillusioned and brainwashed blacks can come in from the cultural wilderness and join their countrymen as Americans.
