Yes, the usual suspects on the left are using the recent sad
events in Ferguson, Missouri, to mobilize blacks to vote for their candidates in the upcoming November
elections. Blacks should be appalled. Sickened. They are being openly used like “Shake and Bake” bags of yore,
as are the tragic events in Ferguson. Treated like rented mules, they should
respond like one and dig their feet in and say “no more”.
Sadly,
they aren’t doing so.
Not
only are the events surrounding Michael Brown’s death “in question”, there is
evidence that he was involved in an earlier crime and also reached for the officer’s gun. Apart from this, more blacks are murdered by
blacks, by far, than are murdered by whites. Inexplicably, this doesn’t cause Republicans to use this fact to desperately
rally African-Americans to their side.
(Maybe it should). And you can be sure that Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, et.
al., won’t be at any of these crime scenes. In their view there
is nothing in these blasé
black-on-black murders to be
(soullessly, callously, brutally)
exploited for their own personal gain. Therefore, they are a non-issue. As is
the case with many modern-day “liberals” (a true bastardization of a word that
once meant wonderful things), these hyper-partisan hucksters are intent on dividing this country for their
political benefit.
With
Democrats historically treating blacks as inferior, if not as chattel- or
worse- it is amazing to see what’s transpired in recent years. Liberals only recognize groups. Because a
group is larger than an individual, and is therefore a more valuable voting
bloc/tool. Conservatives believe in the rights of the individual. The truest, smallest minority. They are looking out for
you, not unions. Tragically, it certainly doesn’t help them in elections
anymore, but it is the right thing to do. Martin Luther King was right when he
said “It isn’t the color of one’s skin, but the content of one’s character”
that matters. Notice he didn’t say
“It isn’t the color of a group’s skin
but the content of a group’s character”.
Imagine if the beatings and cross-burnings and
lynchings in the past had elicited such overt political opportunism.
Republicans actually would have had much truth on their side if they would’ve said to
blacks “Democrats want to lynch your
sons, brothers and fathers and deny basic rights to your moms and grandmothers,
and deprive you all of a decent education”.
It’s
too bad Robert Byrd, the former KKK Leader isn’t still alive and in congress.
Democrats would’ve rallied blacks to support him in his re-election bid as well.
He might’ve gone to Ferguson himself to commiserate and stir up more hate. And
look down his nose at the cops.
Remember
911? Three thousand innocents dead at the hands of 19 radical Islamists. How
many were blacks? Al, Jesse? And did the President try to divide the country
for his own gain? No. He, and other Republicans went out of the way to state
that Islam is a “religion of peace”. That it was being hi-jacked in some
instances by radical extremists. That we had to make a distinction between the vast majority of decent, law-abiding
Muslims and the relatively few who believed in a “perverted” version of the
venerable religion.
The result? We shortly
thereafter elected the first Muslim member of congress. And the “Ground-Zero”
Mosque was built! Tolerance on an unprecedented scale.
On the
other hand, some Democrats are going to try to get potential voters to believe that somehow the
white cops in Ferguson are evil, racist, Republican, Tea-Partiers. “Keep rioting in protest of those
intolerant white (Republicans) until you vote for us and we can come save you!”
Historical
honesty, logic and “fairness” are not strong suits of today’s “liberal” Democratic
Party.
It is
easy to see the color of an individual’s skin, very difficult to determine the
content of a group’s character. Unless it is the group of people using
Ferguson, blacks and tragedy for their own power.
