You didn’t answer my question.

Would you trade places with a black man in 1950’s America?

I wouldn't trade places with a black man in 99% of the neighborhoods black men live in today.

And those neighborhoods didn't get that way because of white guys from the suburbs.

That’s like saying would you trade places with a rabbit. It’s
a stupid hypothetical question.


I didn’t end up where I am because of some fluke in the cosmos.
I’m part of a LONG CHAIN of people going all the way back to
ancient Europe. Their actions led to my arrival. A part of each
one of them flows through my veins.

So your premise is flawed.

I used to feel compassion for various groups and classes of people.
But let’s analyze the ROI of dolling out this compassion.

50+ years of welfare, grants, AA, other freebies and portrayal as nobles in’
the media and what has all that compassion yielded?

Let’s see ...

9/11.

Cities filled with gangstas.

Our tax money paying Section 8 momas to pump out babies like an assembly line.

My kids have to spend an entire week hearing how great a particular civil rights icon is
but only get 1 week on George Washington.

Fear of walking the streets of most major cities.

People like Barrack Obama and Rev. Wright and Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton.

My kids have to hear how freaking awesome some unstable, undemocratic third world
country is but are taught their ancesters are evil and that the answer is SOCIALISM.

My compassion from now will be invested in my kids, family and like minded people.
