I wish everyone in this nation could hear this message.

After the first minute or two, he starts getting into the message. I found it to be very powerful.

I am willing to “ have the conversation” as long as it is a two way street. Black crime in general and black on white crime specifically, need to be a part of it or it’s worthless.

You’re being duped, played, or your chain is being jerked.

Racial politics are a tool and weapon of the Left. It is used to confound and confuse Americans, and push an agenda which gives power to a very few. While whites are kneeling for mercy for their supposed original sin of racism and privilege, blacks have gained nothing, except license. Their families are destroyed, and their culture is cheapened. Both are being played and no one has benefited.

I am willing to “have the conversation” with anyone like this man any and every day. I don’t care a thing about his skin color. He addresses that very well in the interview.

We can talk when black on black killings are condemned and brought to a rational level. If Black Lives Matter then they all matter or they don’t.

I’ll add that I don’t see Corey Miller as a black man first. I see him as a man of God.

I fall short in so many ways but we’ve all got to put God first. If people value their race and other things before God, we’re in trouble.

We need more good men like Corey Miller.

I think it would be okay for you to talk with Corey Miller. If you heard the interview, you would know he condemns all forms of violence.

Rejecting what a good Christian man like Corey Miller has to say isn’t going to help anything. He cannot be accountable for the acts of every black person in the USA. He’s done things the right way and I want to hear what he has to say. There may be some things we can learn.

I should listen to the piece before commenting but the ‘answer to racial tensions’ is painfully obvious....for the most part, it’s an incorrect assumption that there are racial tensions in the United States. What there is however is an endless number of charlatans who insist in fanning the flames of racism because without racism, they lose their raison d’etre.

In my office and with the business people I see regularly, I can’t remember anything coming up that remotely resembles a racist incident. Ditto for all the time spent with neighborhood associations, political groups, university, sports clubs, gyms etc. In my extended family, there are numerous inter-racial couples and the issue of race simply never comes up... unless, it has to do with something very specific of a factual nature about how somebody does something in ‘their culture’ or perhaps a discussion about what somebody has seen on the ‘news’. Who in their right mind looks at Candace Owens as anybody other than a beautiful and intelligent lady?

This is why this beautiful and gutsy young lady Nestride Yumga was so refreshing... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylAh9VjLTiU

The answer to racial tensions is to call out those who are fanning the embers of it and do what is necessary to make sure that these types never ever be allowed to hold office...

I’m not interested in what a black man says about what the country needs to do to “heal” while the black community wreaks havoc on society and each other. Man of God or not. Get your own house clean before you tell me that I need to wash my windows.

The man says we need to seek Jesus and pray. That’s what our nation needs to heal.

He loves people of all races and measures them by their heart and not their skin color. He loves police officers. He’s against violence and looting.

I have no objections to any of that. He’s a man that is worth hearing.

What part of that do you not agree?

Sorry but if prayer alone got it done abortion wouldn’t be legal. Action, with a prayer, is the only way out. Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition. Trying to convert one dark, evil heart at a time is a losing proposition. Tribal attitudes run to deep to be easily rooted out - that is the problem. Society tolerates most bad behavior like it is a 3 year old toddler beating on the dog with a hammer - oh he’s just upset.

“I am willing to “ have the conversation” as long as it is a two way street.”

There is no two-way street with leftists.

Leftists understand and react to three things:

1. Threats of violence.

2. Violence.

3. Death.

Reagan understood that and took down the communist soviet union.
