You Are a Problem to Be Policed
PJ Media ^ | 8 July 2016 | Richard Fernandez

It's easy to see the events in Dallas through a racial prism. It is harder to see them as the consequences of a political system which relies on keeping people in dependency, in which black Americans are the furthest advanced and therefore the most afflicted. As Mark Blyth, a professor of Political Economy at Brown University put it, the problem is global. In Europe the Romanians, Spaniards and the Greeks are given the part African Americans must play. Blyth points out that after one creates a class of dependents, the next and inevitable step is to control them.

For the past 25 years, particularly the center left has told the bottom 60% of the income distribution the following story: Globalization is good for you. It's awesome. It's really great. We're going to sign these trade agreements. Don't worry there will be compensation. You'll be fine. You'll all end up as computer programmers. It'll be fantastic, right?

As long as people like George Clooney are in charge, the coming system of global feudalism is going to be wonderful.

Millions of people around America are upset and often for different reasons, but in most cases they share a vision that justice no longer exists in the United States, or has been so undermined that they no longer respect it.

....

The door to Hell can't be shut by speeches. It can't be resolved by the epideictic presidency of Barack Obama. It has to be met by real reform. Once black grievance gets going, what answer do we give to the cry, "Why not me? Why not me?" The basic problem is that the current system is economically and politically unsustainable. It's been writing checks for years that it can't cash. That is the message of the crisis in Europe. That is the message of the crisis in America. That is the message of Dallas.

Rats have done a great job of “keeping the man down”, government uneducation, dumbing down, single parent re enforcement with the gov help, drugs, setting up a plantation owners society of thier own kind to dish out the skittles and keep them in check, generational dependency that they are all comfortable with, and sowing the seeds of racism.

In researching rules for protesting, I found (this:)
The right to join with fellow citizens in protest or peaceful assembly is critical to a functioning democracy and at the core of the First Amendment. Unfortunately, law enforcement officials sometimes violate this right through means intended to thwart free public expression.....that language is unwarranted and it is totally inaccurate and false......who put it there?

(Here) is the original wording pertaining to protesting error: The First Amendment does not provid e the right to conduct an assemb ly at which there is a clear and present danger of riot, disord er, or interference with traffi c on public streets, or other immediate threat to public safety or order. 13 Statutes that prohibit people from assembling and using force or violence to accomplish unl awful purposes are permissible under the First Amendment.

LET ME SEE IF I HAVE THIS STRAIGHT

(Hypothetical situation)

YOU-and your friends- are holding a gun on ME here in VA, claiming to be a peace loving person who has been dissed because a cop in LA and MN wrongfully OR rightfully shot a Black in a scenario where the cop was doing his business.

Because of the above, YOU-as a Black, feel justified and vindicated if you either Beat my ass or shoot me because I am White AND if I protest or protect myself I AM THE ONE IN TROUBLE.

Again kind of like taking my gun will STOP all shootings is along the line of cutting of my tallywacker in order to stop ALL rapes.

Just making sure I have the facts right...

I'm going to highlight Wretchard' words in the comment section -
There is a way back but it involves restoring credibility and the rule of law. The first thing is to be honest about the bad news. Say "you cannot have a raise" if you cannot have a raise. Say "we will have to unemploy you to accept more immigrants" if that is the case. Say the reverse if it is not the case.
Call a war, a war. Do what Churchill did and say there was nothing on offer but "blood, toil, tears and sweat." But tell the truth and credibility will soon come creeping back.
Then restore the rule of law. It should not at least be flouted. It should be seen to be obeyed, not as is commonly perceived, cynically trampled. And then credibility will also comes flowing back.
You cannot live the lie forever. The place to start is the truth, however bitter, however hard.
Truer words haven't been said, in recent years.
