I think the movie “To Sir With Love” needs a revival
Thank you, Mr. Lemon......MORE BLACKS need to speak up, THEN THEY NEED TO HELP THEIR “Communities”.
Reading the comments over there is very discouraging.
It seems a lot of people are deep in denial. Which sort of explains some things, but it don’t inspire hope.
There has been 50 years of doing it one way and it's been a colossal failure, try something else before you destroy yourselves. If we could help, we would, but you won't let us.
To bad Don chose a life style that doesn’t lean towards procreation
That is truly shocking.
This is temporary. Lemon is a left wing nut job.
The one thing that blacks can’t blame on whitey is their killing each other in record numbers.
Oh, and incidentally, if black people still insist on blaming white people, they should start with white liberals. They are some of the chief culprits in the destruction of black society.
Paging LBJ, Paging LBJ, will LBJ Please pick up the Obamaphone, You created a Major Spill in Isle 4 about 50 years ago, will you please cleanup the mess you created...
He is right, but has things backwards. The *single*, proximate cause of the vast majority of problems that the black community suffers from is “Sex outside of Marriage.”
Now let me parse that in an unexpected way.
When I say “the black community”, I mean *exclusively* those American blacks descended from slaves. *Not* African immigrants, who are inappropriately lumped together with the s-d blacks.
Why? Because African immigrants DO NOT have this cultural baggage. They strongly believe in monogamous marriage and the family. And they shun s-d blacks because they can *objectively* see their horrific self destruction and cultural cancer.
So literally “race is not an issue, here”, AT ALL.
The issue is “Sex outside of Marriage”. This causes the ridiculously high illegitimacy rate of 72%. And that, in turn, creates children who are 60% more likely to criminally offend.
Children with single parents are raised in a survival mode, not a success mode. So the city is like a jungle, and the other people would either make you prey, or are your prey.
Because it is hard to go it alone, such young people group together in packs, like hyenas, and become territorial.
Their lives are driven by impulse, not thought or planning, and certainly without any long term goals. And so they live by the sword and die by the sword.
In the grand scheme of things it is not really their fault, but the fault of their parents, who could not contain their lusts and were encouraged not to do so with the idea that it harms no one and gives great pleasure.
Guess what? It did and does cause great harm. It ruins lives, and multiplies misery and suffering over generations.
If Martin Luther King lived today, the single most important thing he could do would be to persuade black Americans to shun sex outside of marriage as if their lives depended on it.
And their disaster should be fair warning for the rest of us.
29% of white children, and 53% of Latinos are born to unmarried women. It is almost to the point where public aid for unmarried parents should be forbidden as encouraging child abuse.
Just think how much higher the crime rate would be if they weren’t giving away Obamaphones —
Occasional lapses of honesty do not vindicate CNN’s campaign of propaganda. Wolf Blitzer and the fat broad need to be canned, for starters.
Really? Seems like it's always a pack of black guys attacking a non-black person, usually a white person. My dog can crack this pattern.
How dumb are the Trayvonistas? As long as the don’t yell “This is for Trayvon!”, the police could pawn off this hate crime as “a robbery gone wrong” or “just bored teens” like they do for the multitude of other times that black guys mob attack white people. It makes it kind of difficult for police to play ‘hide the hate crime’ when the criminals yell their purpose.
How many decades have we lived with the malignancy of black families and culture in decline?!
A slow motion train wreck we all saw coming. Yet we were powerless to stop it.
It’s possible to break the cycle. Each person has to make a personal choice to continue the cycle or break it. Unfortunately, government has stacked the deck against morality. It’s a major sacrifice for a poor, black couple to decide to marry and raise their children without government assistance. The system discourages that, either intentionally or unintentionally (assuming that liberals truly want to help blacks and not just keep them down).
Nearly every government program designed to redistribute wealth could be better performed by private, voluntary charity. That includes everything from student loans to food aid. People that abuse the charity would quickly lose it. Those truly in need would find it.
We all have free choice, and doing the right thing isn’t necessarily easy. Nevertheless, I still maintain it’s possible for two people to take a stand and break the cycle of violence, broken families, and dependency. Go to virtually any Bible believing church, and you’ll find people who have done exactly that.
good job Mr. lemon
Really? Don Lemon, the guy who compared traditional marriage supporters to 1950s era racists? That’s surprising to me.
