As more of our political elite join the mobs in the streets to conflate the death of George Floyd with a general indictment of America as a racist and evil nation, black Americans, more than anyone, will suffer.
Former President George W. Bush has now weighed in to falsely accuse our nation of "systemic racism."
President Bush was born to a life of privilege. Yet he fell victim to alcoholism and turned to faith and religion to take back responsibility and control of his life.
Yet he has insufficient respect for black Americans, most of whom are born into circumstances far more daunting than anything he has ever known, to grant them the privilege of truth and personal responsibility that have served him so well.

I keep trying to think of an American “Institution” that’s racist/white supremacist.

Moral relativism is a key to victimhood. If your morals are determined by your circumstance, you have no morality. And that is certainly true of most leftists and those who justify their actions by their victimhood.
Seriously, those you idolize are a reflection of your ideals, and the lack victimhood movement always chooses scumbags to idolize.
Rap stars are a mirror to their soul, and its rotten to the core.
With the dozens of truly outstanding people they could choose like Ben Carson or Candice Owen’s, they revile them to choose some street thug.
So sad.
Release Barabas!
it has been happening for a long, long time.
Amen. The only one ever born who chose His birth Mother and circumstances was named Jesus.
