RACISM IS ALIVE AND WELL

By now everyone has heard of the New Black Panthers and their statements to kill "crackas" and their babies. Never mind these fools have never suffered from racism in America nor were they brought here against their will as slaves.

As you know in November 2008 Black Panthers decided to keep whites from being allowed to vote in Philadelphia, DEROY MURDOCK: New Black Panther activists' cases dropped by courts » Abilene Reporter News, using statements such as “Cracker, you are about to be ruled by a black man,” one of the New Black Panthers told a white voter. They taunted others as “white devils.” A black couple serving as GOP poll watchers felt endangered when the Panthers called them “race traitors.”

Two members of the New Black Panther Party, King Samir Shabazz and Jerry Jackson, stood within 15 feet of this polling station dressed in military-style black jackets, black berets and black combat boots. Shabazz wielded a two-foot-long night stick.

At an April 23, 2010 U.S. Civil Rights Commission hearing, Chris Hill, an eyewitness, explained under oath that he spoke with the male Republican pollster inside the precinct. “He was definitely shook up,” Hill testified. “And he told me that he was called a race traitor by Mr. Shabazz... and that he was threatened if he stepped outside of the building, there would be hell to pay.”

And yet the Obama administration refused to prosecute this case.

We are now told daily by mainstream media that the TEA Party is a racist organization though approximately 18% of TEA partiers are African American. The myth was pursued so much by the liberal mainstream media that the NAACP jumped on board with a resolution telling the TEA Party to denounce racism.

That was obviously an easy thing for the TEA party to do since no evidence exist to prove they are racist.

Now comes this video from Obama US Department of Agriculture (USDA) Georgia Director Shirley Sherrod addressing the NAACP:




This is just one more pathetic example of racism in Government. The above concerning the New Black Panthers and the administration not taking appropriate action, and now this from a Government employee admitting to screwing over a poor farmer facing bankruptcy because he was white and she could.

I, for one, am sick of the whole racist angle mainstream media uses to keep us apart and the Government uses for even more control.

Do not think for one second I am letting other racists off the hook like the KKK because they are yet another hate group. I spend a considerable amount of time in political circles with elected leaders and employees of such.

Racism exists in many forms and crosses all boundaries.

You would be amazed at just how racist many are. Black and White.

While the NAACP did not denounce the New Black Panther Party members and their criminality, and using racism at the election booth, NAACP Senior Vice President Hilary Shelton immediately denounced the statements by Sherrod.

Thank you Mr. Shelton maybe someone in the NAACP still has some integrity left. One can only hope.

Racism exists because of weak minded shallow individuals who cannot take responsibility for their own actions and repercussions in life. It is not a "black and white" issue. When one of us Americans suffer we all do.

When we allow our own Government led by the President of the United States to allow this type of behavior and way of thinking we have a serious problem.

Racism only benefits those who wish to divide us and currently it would seem that the administration itself is the divider. There is not one of us left alive today who was brought here against their will into slavery. As a matter of fact NO ONE IS MAKING ANYONE STAY HERE against their will either. At least the last time I checked anyway.

To continue using the divisive tactics that separate should be an affront to us all.

Each of us, regardless of race, have an obligation and a duty to be the best we can be in this world so the future of our children and our grandchildren etc can be one that is prosperous, safe, and secure in the American way of life.

I will no longer sit idly by and be accused of being a racist because I am "whitey." I have harmed no one because of skin color or ethnicity. Folks like Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, locally Louis Coleman, and now the New Black Panther Party, the KKK, and the Obama administration itself, have always prospered by selling us this garbage dividing us for their own gain.

How many of us today have profited from racism?

Mainstream media and elected officials have.

It is time for us to say no more.

  1. 18% African American? Where did that number come from? According to the NYT poll, 8% of Tea Party folks are non-white (and that includes a lot more than African-Americans): http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2010/04/14/us/politics/20100414-tea-party-poll-graphic.html?ref=politics#tab=9.
