What Does the White Man Want?
American Thinker ^ | 3/15/2018 | American Thinker

Posted on 03/15/2018 7:06:18 AM PDT by lurk

I was driving around St. Louis last fall, very near Ferguson, where recently a white cop shot dead a black teen. A black man, V, was waiting at a bus stop alone. I figured I could get him home half an hour earlier than the bus, so I stopped and offered him a ride. As we talked, I learned that his entire life experience has been in one locale, North St. Louis. I asked him what the news is around here and what's going on. I referenced Ferguson. That got V going.

Leaving you alone is simply NOT part of the Gibmedat agenda.

That was the first thing to come to my mind too.

So far “left alone” is ahead.

I was in a field in the USN which was mostly populated with White Men with a mild sprinkling of Blacks/Females etc at least where I was stationed (WashDC 1962-64 Shore Duty) rest of time aboard female less ships with enough ‘others’ to make it a community.

My ship had women in the crew...but about 14 years too late for me!(Kiddie cruiser, '61 - '64) USS VULCAN was the lead ship of the VULCAN - class of Repair Ships. In 1978, the VULCAN became the first US Navy ship on which women were deployed (with the exception of nurses on hospital ships).

Is this news or blog fodder? If you wrote it, why are you excerpting?

Yes, I am promoting my own stuff. Just this once.

Answered right up front.

His essay was picked up by American Thinker (founded in 2005, frequent contributors include William E Ward, Michael Savage, etc)... it's not his own blog.

To be left alone, obviously. But to invite people to share what I have as when I can afford the time and the place.

"The ride ended, and we exchanged phone numbers. Weeks later, we texted Thanksgiving greetings to each other."

Ah, the author pulled up short here. Breaking bread together is the real deal, it's biblical, it changes people.

White people want the same thing everything else wants. They want to live around white people.

Oh, lurk, I did not realize that was you as author. Did you have lunch or dinner with the guy?

Well done. A very good read. Thanks for posting.

As for me all I expect is to be left alone and to be allowed to enjoy the fruit of my labor.

I want everyone to turn off that funny vibe and embrace being Americans.
Individualism is what we want, not tribalism.
