9-Year-Old Boy at Michelle Obama Rally: ‘If Mitt Romney Win, We’ll Be Going Back to the Crop Fields’
The Blaze ^ | 11-02-2012 | Jason Howerton

Kids say the darndest things. But sometimes they say shocking things.

On Thursday, 9-year-old Brandon did the latter when he was asked why he wanted President Barack Obama to win a second term outside a campaign rally featuring First Lady Michelle Obama in Daytona, Fla.

“Because if Mitt Romney win, we’ll be going back to the crop fields,” Brandon said, referring to the days of slavery. “We’ll be picking crops.”

The father can be heard off-camera laughing. Obviously, no 9-year-old child would determine through their own reasoning that GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney would send African-Americans “back to the crop fields.”

“We need Obama to win, because Obama was our president for how many years? Three years. And we need him to win because he’s a good president,” the boy added.

This “Labor is slavery” attitude is one of the reasons I laugh about this urban farming idea. Blacks have been convinced that farm work is slavery and few are willing to do it for any amount of money.

I picked cucumbers (gherkins) for 75 cents a bushel in summer of 1967. It was the only work around for anybody, much less teens. I picked with white people, black people, young and old, male and female. We did not complain and we were in MISSISSIPPI......................

I got news for you, kid: You're already working on the plantation. Your Daddy is too ignorant to understand that.

Good is bad, up is down, and what used to be called 'earning your keep' is now *slavery*.

Obviously the 9 year old didn’t come up with this on his own. Almost worse than this child’s comment is the father laughing in the background. Was slavery really funny? No it was not and is not...this child I would bet knows very little to nothing about our nations history including the dark chapters of the civil war.

What isn’t understood is that.. the people dependent on the government for their food..phones...housing.. monthly welfare check are slaves. They are owned by the government, all so that presidents...congressmen and senators can stay in positions of power. Once people are truly free the master is expendable.

Why not ? You and your kind get all that free stuff.. maybe you should give back something in return.

Brandon, between going back to the fields and boasting on Twitter all the stores you robbed, the people you mugged and the women you raped (someday), I’d much rather you go back to the fields.

I’m sorry son but harvesting crops is too important and too difficult a job to entrust to third-generation welfare sponges. We need responsible and capable people for that sort of work.

Brandon, I don’t know if you know this due to the sorry state of our education system. But, we now have tractors, combines, plows and mechanized planters. There is no work for field hand laborers.

I’m actually thinking about starting a farm even I haven’t done anything like that since my grandma’s farm 30 years ago. To me, there was something good about seeing the results of one’s physical labor.

As a farm boy, I don’t think it would hurt the little s&^t a bit to work in the fields. I’ve done plenty of it, I don’t think he is any better than I was. FUBO!

My first thoughts were about Cambodia too. Betcha our commie teachers are not even mentioning what communism did to that population after takeover. Or what Stalin did to his people, or Mao to his, etc, etc.

When blacks are allowed to constantly claim racism, past, present and future, with little to no evidence for the purpose of gaining power over whites and non-blacks, I would definitely call that pure racism on the part of blacks.
