The Rx that's needed in the black community

Comedian, Bill Cosby

The "Knockout Game" is symptomatic of an even greater issue in the U.S today.  The Black community needs to "man up" and start addressing its own problems. For far too long, blacks have used whites as their scapegoats, choosing to point the finger at 'white racism' or 'racist cops' or a racial imbalance in the prisons and jails. There's a racial imbalance with many more blacks in prison and jails because they're the ones who are committing most of the crimes!

As Bill Cosby has said,

"It's NOT what the white man is doing to us, it's what we're doing to ourselves! Five or six different children, same woman, eight, ten different husbands or whatever, pretty soon you're going to have to have DNA cards so you can tell who you're making love to. You don't know who this is. It might be your grandmother. (Laughter) I'm telling you, they're young enough. Hey, you have a baby when you're twelve. Your baby turns thirteen and has a baby, how old are you? Huh? Grandmother. By the time you're twelve, you could have sex with your grandmother, you keep those numbers coming. I'm just predicting.”

When I look at the black community, I ask myself, where is the church, especially the black church? What

are you doing? Why aren't you speaking out? Why haven't we heard any 'black leaders' speaking out condemning 'the knockout game'? And again, I believe the fact that the black community has to rely on so-called, self-appointed 'black leaders' is itself part of their problem. They don't need any leaders. Each of them needs to start taking responsibility for what is going on in their own households, in their own community, in their schools.

As Bill Cosby has already stated, they've got the wrong priorities and the wrong values. Instead of buying their kid a $200. pair of basketball speakers, they need to be investing in Hooked on Phonics so their kid can read and speak English.

Many in the black community profess a strong faith in Christ but sadly, their faith never seems to make it out of the church sanctuary and into their homes, community, or at the ballot box. Black Christians don't vote for righteousness, they vote on the basis of skin color. Why else would 96% blacks have voted for Obama?

It's time for blacks to stop playing the "race card" and the "victim card" and take responsibility for their own failures as a people. They need stop allowing liberal educators in their schools brainwash them with a "victim mentality". Instead of attacking Bill Cosby and vilifying the messenger, you need to listen to the message that is coming from one who knows you and is speaking the truth.

Instead of marching for justice, or for more food stamps, try marching to the public schools and declaring you're not going to stand for a 60% drop-out rate any longer. You're not going to put up with the fact that you son or daughter can't read or write or even speak English. Start taking back your schools and your community from black gangs and thugs who happen to be your sons and daughters. Start parenting your own children instead of relying on the schools or television to do it.

Instead of marching to end racial profiling, black parents need to spend
more time at home teaching their kids some moral values so the police
don't have to stop and 'frisk' them. 

Society at large needs to take serious action against those who perpetrate violence of any kind, especially in the form of the "knockout game" which is no game, but deadly attacks on innocent people. Punching out some elderly person's lights isn't wrong because its illegal, it's illegal because its WRONG! If we as a society feel no moral revulsion at gangs of black youths pulverizing fellow citizens, then we as a society have lost our moral bearings. As Chuck Colson pronounced 20 yrs ago, we have become the "new barbarians"!

My final thought is that we need to pray for our nation, pray for the black community. We need to pray that the black community will look in the mirror and start taking responsibility for what is going on right under their nose and no longer looking for someone else to blame.

It's time to for blacks to take their faith in God and His
righteousness outside the church sanctuary and into
their homes, community as well as the ballot box. 

At the same time, we all need to look in the mirror and ask ourselves "to what extent am I part of the problem?" What am I doing to turn the tide, or am I just going along to get along? Do I ever speak out? Do I ever correct someone for wrong thinking which comes from believing a lie? Maybe I should be looking for a black child or teen to mentor or tutor, teaching him or her how to read and write. Maybe our churches need to be supporting the Big Brothers and Big Sisters' program. Instead of soup kitchens, we might better spend our time mentoring a young black child and giving him some values and purpose for his life.

We need to stop the political correctness which is de-humanizing us because it provides cover for these hoodlums and their acts of violence. We are so afraid of being called-out as "racists" that we've allowed ourselves to be silenced. Maybe we need to pray for boldness to stand up to the lies of political-correctness and to speak the truth in love to those around us. I'm sure that as you and I pray, God will speak and show us what He'd have us to do and how to do it.

Racial Profiling in not the problem--it's part of the solution.

The race hucksters (you know who they are. But if in doubt, read my previous post) would now like us to believe that racial profiling is racist. In fact, Pres. Obama has suggested that we consider new laws to ban racial profiling. In 2008 after Obama was elected, the FBI and CIA got their orders: No more profiling, no more calling certain Muslims "terrorists" or "jihadists" or "Islamic radicals."

I've always thought that this effort to avoid racial profiling was an idiotic effort with deadly consequences. After 9-11 when we knew that our terrorist attackers were all middle-eastern Muslims, in the name of political correctness, we decided to not racially profile anyone at our airports. Instead, the TSA was told to select "at random" every 10th person in line. Who came up with this idiotic idea? What if the terrorist is the 8th person standing in line? Or the 5th person? Invariably, the person chosen by our brilliant TSA officers is a nun, or an elderly person, or a 6-yr old handicapped child.

If it is true that African-American males are viewed suspiciously, it is probably because statistically, they commit a disproportionate amount of crime. If that were not true, they would probably be given no more attention as supposed suspects that is accorded to white, asian or Latino youths.

Blacks are being told by this president and his attorney general, along with the help of Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson that their biggest threat is racial profiling by the police. These so-called back leaders who point the finger at external causes are helping to destroy black america.

Following an incident in Cincinnati in 2001, civil rights leaders organized a boycott of the city and charged the police with abuse of black youth. As a consequence, the police reduced their patrols in black neighborhoods, and arrests declined dramatically, because cops did not want to be accused of racism. During this period of the boycott, a total of 74 shootings occurred in black neighborhoods, leaving 80 people wounded or dead--an 800 percent increase over the previous year's figures of 9 shootings and 11 victims.

In Los Angeles 12 yrs. Ago, gang activity and violence sharply increased after the dismantling of the police gang unit that was accused of racism. In a similar situation in Prince George's County, MD., 61 people were killed in the first seven months of that year, compared with only 71 the entire previous year. Carjackings doubled, and robberies rose 37 percent. The county police reportedly were participating in an informant slowdown, after being accused of racism. Their reported philosophy: "No contact, no complaints."

"If black America continues down this lethal path of self-deception, the protest leaders will not bear the cost arising from the fabricated complaint of racial profiling--no it will be the sons and daughters who live in these

high crime areas which are most in need of protection but will receive none because the police of afraid of being deemed "racists."

All this talk about racial profiling is a diversionary tactic to avoid the real issue of the lack of morality in the black community. 90 percent of black murder victims are killed by other blacks, not white. Today's civil rights' leaders are swatting at gnats and ignoring the elephant in the room. 73 percent of all black children are born without fathers married to their mothers. Today's black leadership is living off of the fumes of racism. It's a cottage industry. They are the race-hustlers who want their people to think that their biggest problem is the white man when in reality, it's other blacks along with a lack of morality. It's time for the black community to look in the mirror and clean up their own backyard.

Obama: Race-Huckster-In-Chief does it again!

I can't keep up with this guy. I'm talking about the President of the United States. Yesterday, I was all set to upload my latest post on "race hucksters", and then Obama gives his now infamous speech to let
everyone know that "Trayvon Martin could have been me thirty-five years ago." I don't think so. Let's give the President a dose of reality here: When Barry was Travon's age he was in an expensive private school in Hawaii and hung at the beach getting "high" with white kids.

In another attempt to bolster his black-identity cred, Obama also noted that he too has heard people locking their car doors as he walks toward them. Well that's because they probably think he wants to steal more money from their wallets! However a different take on this comment comes from former black congressman and Lt. Col. Allen West who says,

"I am a black male who grew up in the inner city of Atlanta and no one ever followed me in a mall. I don't recall any doors clicking when I crossed the street. And I never had anyone clutching their handbag when I got on an elevator. I guess having two awesome parents who taught me to be a respectful young man paid dividends."

Bless his heart, Obama has to insert himself into everything, especially if it involves race. Why? Because he is our Race-Huckster-In-Chief. He is a race-baiter who in his typical Alinsky-style, honed from experience as a community agitator in Chicago, wants to divide the races rather than unite. Even Trayvon Martin's parents along with the FBI said that this tragedy was NOT about race. In fact, George Zimmerman (a registered Democrat) had spent his spare time tutoring young black kids. But you can't let the facts get in the way when you are the Race-Baiter in Chief for the United States.

We have the first black president in the country's history, who through circumstance grew up as a child of privilege, professing to teach us something about race, even though he vacations in lily-white, exclusive Martha's Vineyard, staying in a 7.6 million dollar home where all his neighbors would lock their doors and call the police if Trayvon Martin were walking down their street.

Channon Christain & boyfriend, Christopher Newsom

Seriously! Where was Obama speeches on "race" speeches when Channon Christian and Chris Newsom, both WHITE, were kidnapped by 4 BLACKS, beaten, brutally raped, Channon had bleach poured down her throat to try to hide the nasty monsters DNA then suffocated while her boyfriend was raped and shot then set on fire.

I sure don't remember him making any statements about the black-on-black genocide taking place in his home town of Chicago. Since 2008, more than 530 youth have been killed in Chicago with nearly 80 per-cent of the homicides occurring in 22 Black or Latino communities on the city's South side. But why would

he? That would place the blame where it belongs, on a culture of violence and entitlement in the black community.

As National Review columnist Lee Habib has pointed out, if George Zimmerman is guilty of anything, he's guilty of not being black. If he had been black, then there would be no outrage. Obama would've kept his mouth shut. Al Sharpton wouldn't be out trying to incite riots. The media would not even have covered this story, if George Zimmerman had been black. Why? Because in America, the dirty little secret is that the race hucksters and race-baiters like Obama and Sharpton can't get any mileage out of black-on-black crime because that would force them to look in the mirror and start addressing the problems in the black community and its lack of morality. Bill Cosby has taken a lot of heat for his address to the NAALCP (National Assoc. for the Advancement of Liberal Colored People) last year where he told them, "We can't blame white people any longer!"

Until then, Mr. President, if you want to help America deal with the issue of race, I suggest you have another beer summit with George Zimmerman--just the two of you, like you did in Cambridge with those "racist" cops. A few beers, a few laughs, a nice photo-op and you and George Zimmerman will be best buds!! 

My next post will continue this "conversation" on race with some thoughts on racial profiling.
