Trump rose to power in no small part due to his promises to bury the political accomplishments of the first black president...

Don't worry. Obama will always have "Cash for Clunkers." Trump won't take that from him.

Oh, Karen, it is not White America, it is the United States of America. Sorry to see you leave (not). Don’t bother with a forwarding address as I doubt anyone will miss you. Bye.

It’s been going on since the 60s if not sooner. Excuses, hypocrisy, and Uncle Tom for those that disagree. Or racist if you’re white (or Latino . . or Asian . . .or Middle Eastern)

Meanwhile, the illegitimacy rate has nearly tripled, crime and drugs everywhere, which would be totally out of control if not for security and technology. The dropout rate? Ferguson? The welfare state? Government “employment” vs real world contributions. 300,000+ abortions . . . annually. Spoiled rich athletes and “entertainers” who ruin just about everything they touch, can’t keep their ignorant, unpatriotic mouths shut.

And yet decades later, the ghetto is still the ghetto. Cue Mack Davis and Elvis. Nothing changes because attitudes don’t change. At least for the better. Never mind that black unemployment is at historic lows under Donald Trump. If the Plantation Bosses say hate him, the author of the article and those of similar gullibility, step to the back of the Dim Bus and dutifully say Yes Master.

They’ve spent decades portraying Whites as demons in order to justify robbing Whites and putting Whites at the back of every line.

They’re saying that since they’re not getting everything they want, then white genocide is the answer?

Booker T. Washington had her pegged.

Booker T. Washington (1865–1915) warned of such people within the black community in his 1911 book My Larger Education. He described them as “problem profiteers”:

“There is another class of coloured people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs – partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.” (p. 118)

Washington continues with a story that encapsulates what is wrong with so many black “leaders” and their guilt-ridden white supporters. Those victimizing blacks are other blacks:

A story told me by a coloured man in South Carolina will illustrate how people sometimes get into situations where they do not like to part with their grievances. In a certain community there was a coloured doctor of the old school, who knew little about modern ideas of medicine, but who in some way had gained the confidence of the people and had made considerable money by his own peculiar methods of treatment. In this community there was an old lady who happened to be pretty well provided with this world’s goods and who thought that she had a cancer. For twenty years she had enjoyed the luxury of having this old doctor treat her for that cancer. As the old doctor became — thanks to the cancer and to other practice — pretty well-to-do, he decided to send one of his boys to a medical college. After graduating from the medical school, the young man returned home, and his father took a vacation. During this time the old lady who was afflicted with the “cancer” called in the young man, who treated her; within a few weeks the cancer (or what was supposed to be the cancer) disappeared, and the old lady declared herself well.

When the father of the boy returned and found the patient on her feet and perfectly well, he was outraged. He called the young man before him and said: “My son, I find that you have cured that cancer case of mine. Now, son, let me tell you something. I educated you on that cancer. I put you through high school, through college, and finally through the medical school on that cancer. And now you, with your new ideas of practicing medicine, have come here and cured that cancer. Let me tell you, son, you have started all wrong. How do you expect to make a living practicing medicine in that way?”

I am afraid that there is a certain class of race problem solvers who don’t want the patient to get well, because as long as the disease holds out they have not only an easy means of making a living, but also an easy medium through which to make themselves prominent before the public.

If the patient gets well, an entire industry of victimhood will get cancer and die. This would be the best thing for the black community. Until blacks throw off the shroud of victimhood, they will be at the mercy of “doctors” who treat a cancer that does not exist but that they are paying for.

If Whites are evil like they are portrayed to be then places where they are rare, like Africa and the Middle East, must be sweet gentle prosperous paradises.

Sounds like it. Too much of a coincidence to not be.

How gross that a Nigerian has the nerve to badmouth America. And that any American has the nerve to listen to her.

When do I get to exercise my white privilage? I was demoted so the job could go to someone of another sex and race, I was denied various other jobs because they wanted more diversity (all of which ended in failure) I still pay my bills without government assistance or handouts. I despise racists like this.

For those who have been working to fight for civil rights for people of all creeds, colors, genders and nationalities, it is a very dark time


What civil rights are any citizens of the United States being denied?

Non citizens do not have any right to enter our country. If they feel they are not threaten, non citizens are free to leave. There is no wall forcing anyone in the United States to remain in our country.
