History....png

Very true words.
I am saddened by recent the removal of historical statues, whether you like the statue or what it stands for or not. if it's no longer there then future generations will not have the opportunity to say " those that on the horse ?" and thus learn something of their own history.

Col. West is a wise man.

Good quote.

Black kids don't hear about him in public school though....all they hear about is the hero and role model Michael Brown, who they are taught to emulate.

Strange how police very rarely shoot you unless you are trying to fight with them.... White kids get taught that, and most of them (not all) don't try to wrestle cops guns away or shoot them, but the ones who do try that get shot (and are actually more likely to be shot when they fight a cop than their black counterparts).

'Black Privilege' is what Democrats seek; that a black gets taught it is ok to do fight cops instead of cooperate because 250 years ago somebody who looked them might have been a slave.

HISTORY shows that pretty much ALL races have been slaves, and that it was pretty much the WHITES in the U.S. who were REPUBLICANS who ENDED black slavery, and set the example for the rest of the world to end ALL slavery. The free-market capitalist economy of the U.S. has provided the most freedom and security for black citizens ANYWHERE ON EARTH.

But the 'Progresssssives' who took over the Democrat Party a couple decades ago want none of that; they want blacks full of fear and resentment and rage and dependence. Successful black people are a threat to Democrats, so the Democrats do everything possible to undermine black individuals and families, all the while superficially pretending to 'help' and 'care'...

The Democrats are the REAL racists, but won't even allow school choice or vouchers, so the black kids their socialist policies have rendered fatherless never get a chance to learn history, or achieve anything beyond a chance to be a martyr if they can try to resist arrest and get shot. Of course it is a given, thanks to Democrat-run inner cities, that the black youth will be criminals, because Democrats have destroyed the black families, incentivized and glamourized single-motherhood, and coddled the juvenile offenders so that by the time they are old enough to be treated seriously by the legal system, they are already armed and violent, and see no future for themselves in the legitimate world.

What a tragic waste of young lives, and horrible thing to do to an entire race of human beings...

If more blacks would be exposed to speakers like Larry Elder or Walter Williams or Thomas Sowell or Candace Owens or Allen West or Tim Scott, they would realize what the Democrats are doing to them, and finally realize those awful 'redneck' right-wing, NRA-member, Republicans are their best advocates.

Well said. If you and I lived close enough, I would probably be able to get a Primary Care Physician who I could actually like. That would depend on you accepting new patients.
