50 years ago, blacks told the world that they were ready to take their place as full citizens and that it was only segregation that held them back. Republicans agreed and backed them. Democrats stated that blacks were simply inferior and not fit to share common space. Democrats said that blacks were lazy, unserious, and of low moral character.
LBJ baited the trap with welfare, and black culture quickly descended into attempting to prove the Democrats right on every count. Of course, Democrats don’t say “boy” in the open any more, they just say “youth” or “teenager”.
MLK Jr. would cry if he saw black American today.
It’s time for people to realize Martin Luther King is dead and has been for forty-four years. In his day, what he did as far as advancing civil rights was notable because no one had quite yet gone as far as he had, i.e the Birmingham Bus Boycott and his ‘’I Have A Dream Speech’’. But he is gone. America is not the nation it was in 1963. In some ways, it’s better but in reality it’s worse. Our role as the worlds major super power and defender of liberty is a shadow of what it once was. Rancor and political correctness have replaced open and honest debate, unfettered illegal immigration has rendered national sovereignty and the rule of law to be a joke and rather than strive thorough honest hard work and moral character to be a better people as King preached, the African-American community by and large has perfected the role of perpetual victim and entitlement program recipient to an art form. Can any reasonable person see this maudlin rehashing and veneration of Martin Luther King, a mere mortal as any of God’s creations , going on for years and decades to come? What, if anything is going to be achieved by it?
