Greetings, Fenton. :2wave:
I talked to a friend today in Baltimore, and she told me it's worse than what's being reported. She said that everyone she knows is staying home because they're afraid of being outside! WTH? In America? This is such :bs:
I love the United States, always have. I cannot live there because this
is the US now. It was the America I left in 1967, LA and Detroit took turns being burned. Nine dead in Ohio....and Jesse was pimping even then.
In recent months we have had Ferguson and New York take a trip in the war zone. There will be more, many. Because your system is corrupt. Elected politicians know they don't have to fix anything, merely make it look like they tried.
In the meantime races are trump cards to be played at election time, run a black guy because he's black and the 'black vote' figures they have a champion in the White House only to find he's a champion of Walls Street and Hollywood rap stars.
In 66 years I have seen NO progress on race, merely hand outs to blacks to buy their vote, AA programs that cause resentment in whites, all negatives, no positives. The blacks are as at fault as thew police, using violence instead of brain power, head butting instead of shame like my personal hero of all time, Mahatma Gandhi. Passive resistance defeated the British Empire.
I have said many times the election of Barack Obama has set back race relations in the US by a decade at least. You chose a black man because he was hip and black, not qualified and now you pay a price.
Something to think about as the nation considers the first woman president only because she's a woman.
Now is there anyone who truly believes Hillary can end racial violence?
