I try to judge a group of people by what I don’t see, as much as what I do see.
When I see big crimes committed by whites, I see whites all over the place being very vocal about the evil nature of it.
When I see big crimes committed by blacks, crickets!
When I see terrorist or other tragic practices carried out in the name of Islam and their profit, crickets.
If these group want my respect, then their membership and leaders are going to have to stand up and be counted.
When a guy like this Brown dude do what they do, I want to know the black community gets it. I want to know the black pastors get it. I know neither of those things right now. Nobody but nobody is standing up to be counted, urging peace. During the riots, crickets. Now, still agitation going on, crickets.
This guy seems to be one of the only people with a head on his shoulders.
Very very sad. Don’t blame me. It’s the deafening silence that has convinced me of the status of black affairs.
That and the NAACP, Al Sharpton, and Jessie Jackass.
One of the most damaging sayings in the black community:
“That ain’t no big deal...”
It is because the community doesn’t seem those actions as crimes.
The crime is fighting back. There was a case here recently where a young black man got killed trying to do a home invasion. The local blacks cried, and demanded that the homeowner be arrested because the young black man was “A good kid”. In private they saw it as work place violence. The thug was just doing his job.
Until that changes, and it might not change, we will see things like Fergason happen.
The black man in chief loudly promotes homosexual marriage and homosexual behavior everywhere, crickets.
The black man in chief loudly promotes abortion-on-demand of black babies, crickets.
and you wonder why the community is falling apart? The answer is there for everyone to see. It starts at the top.
Excellent, Ditto.
When I see big crimes committed by blacks, crickets!
When I see terrorist or other tragic practices carried out in the name of Islam and their profit, crickets.
To what degree then is that impression directed by what you are allowed to see by a complicit media?
You have voiced my thoughts exactly. When white people commit crimes the honest members of white society condemn them for it. The same does not seem to be true in the black community or the muslim society.
I’ll never forget when the black community cheered OJ’s court victory.
About that same time I was in a jury pool waiting to be selected. The defendant was black, he had shot a cop, and there were 2 blacks in the pool. The 2 blacks announced to the rest of us that it didn’t matter what the rest of us did they were going to find the black guy not guilty if they were selected for the jury.
The guy pled guilty so the jury pool was dismissed.
It's worse than that. The kneejerk reaction of the black community is to rush to the defense of whoever committed the crime, particularly if the crime is black on white or black vs. law enforcement.
The first mistake made by many Conservatives is to "try to judge a group of people" who probably differ profoundly among themselves. According to Black activist, ex-con and current Cleveland radio talk show host Mansfield Frazier, "two thirds of Black people are doing just fine," their kids are achieving in school and succeeding in business, and staying out of trouble.
They may or may not wish to expose themselves to public attention by speaking out about Ferguson, or anything else. And why should they have to? They don't owe anything to the dysfunctional black welfare underclass. They worked hard and risked a lot to get away from the Michael Browns of the world.
Most of them likely just want to enjoy what Justice Benjamin Cardozo called the fundamental American right: The right to be let alone.
