If Blacks have a problem with the American justice system they should complain to the BLACK MAN who has been IN CHARGE of the American justice system for the last 5 YEARS!
“(however unwise his initial actions may have been)”
BULLSHIT! HE saw someone skulking in the shadows. He is NEIGHBORHOOD watch!
I really thought that the election of Obama, though I opposed same, was proof that this country had turned a corner in race relations, and was strong evidence that the racism of the past was gone.
We have also seen a few black governors elected, including Douglas Wilder in Virginia. He didn’t get elected with only black support. He needed strong support from whites as well to be elected governor of that state.
If I recall correctly, Tim Scott in South Carolina was elected to Congress from a largely white district. South Carolina, a deep southern state, elected a black man to Congress. The same state elected Nikki Haley, who is of Indian descent, also non-white in liberal parlance, got elected. Bobby Jindal, also of Indian descent, elected governor of Louisiana.
We could also point to countless other black elected officials around the country, some of whom, such as Obama and Wilder, elected by largely white electorates. If America was really so racist, there’s no way these men win these elections.
Yet the liberals and race baiters jumped on this Trayvon Martin case, and focused so much attention, and got trumped up charges because a black boy was killed. All of this to try to prove that America has not changed since the days of Emmitt Till.
I don’t understand the liberals and the race baiters. They want to keep fighting the battles of the past, and point to a rare case such as Trayvon Martin as evidence that nothing has changed in America.
They say that a black man can’t walk down the street without getting shot. In truth, the biggest threat to young black men is other black men with guns, not a white Hispanice neighborhood watch. But we can’t let any facts get in the way of a liberal narrative.
When Hold’em or any of the race-hustlers say that they want to have a conversation or a dialogue about race.....translation: You whites have to listen to us and do what we say.
Awesome post bump! Let’s start the conversation.
On the contrary, the race baiters are causing people who never harbored racist thoughts to suddenly entertain them.
