Katrisha shares a valued comment:

It is difficult to feel welcome here as a black woman when blanket statements are tossed at will.
Many of “us” agree with much of what “you” say, but when blanket statements about our race are thrown, a) one automatically weakens their argument and b) it makes “us” who tend to agree, cringe or shy away.  (shrugs)

There is a bigger “there” within that comment, which deserves expansion – and perhaps a greater understanding.

In the field of ideas, conservative patriots can dress down the racists with quick dispatch.  Why?  Because the conservatives view people as individuals and not attached to collectives.   However, yes here comes the “but”,…. when the individual does not draw down their own collective – the battle of ideas is necessarily broad-stroked.
Here’s what I mean using examples. (more…)

Last year we wrote the discussion thread “Do You Think All of These People Are Going To Quit – Not Likely” because we knew then what most are aware of now.   The shooting death of Trayvon Martin, and the subsequent prosecution of George Zimmerman had nothing really to do with the events of February 26th.
The case never was about George Zimmerman;   He was only a product.   Those who refused to accept the political reality, and even George Zimmerman’s attorney, Mark O’Mara, can clearly see that now.
Rather than beat the horse, because y’all have followed this so long, let’s just focus on current events.   Those newly awakened can use the site search functions to see the 1,000+ research posts which outline the history and full back-story.
 
At this point, because we have stayed faithful to sharing the truth of the whole construct, we have eyes/ears all around, inside, and surrounding almost every individual player in this insufferable ruse.  So let’s take a look at Ms. Candy (above left) and Fruit (above right) against the backdrop of their most recent conversation with the Feds.

(Miami Herald – Written by Jay Weaver)  The parents of Trayvon Martin and their lawyer met with Justice Department prosecutors and FBI agents at the U.S. attorney’s office in Miami Wednesday to discuss the status of a criminal civil-rights investigation into the fatal shooting of their teen-age son last year.
The federal investigation, which was opened while George Zimmerman faced prosecution for the death of the 17-year-old, gained renewed interest last month after Zimmerman was acquitted in state court of Martin’s killing in a Sanford gated community.
Prosecutors with the Justice Department’s criminal civil-rights section and FBI agents from Central Florida met with the late teen’s parents, Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin, and their attorney, Benjamin Crump, to bring the family up to speed, according to sources familiar with the meeting.

(Via NewsBusters) It seems that when there’s a good liberal narrative to be advanced, facts and  actual history don’t matter.
That was apparently the case when Oprah Winfrey claimed that the “n-word” was  the last thing heard by “millions” who were lynched. The implication is clear —  millions of blacks have been lynched because of their race.  Worse yet, Parade Magazine let Winfrey get away with her “fact”  unchallenged.
Winfrey  made her comments in an interview discussing Lee Daniels’ “The Butler,” a movie  that chronicles one black man’s years of service in the White House. Winfrey  plays the role of Gloria Gaines, the wife of Cecil Gaines, who served from  Eisenhower through Reagan. (more…)

No, we will not be writing discussion threads around the latest George Zimmerman sighting in Missouri and North Dakota.  Think about it.
Instead focus on the bigger picture.   Yesterday President Obama met with Eric Holder and Al Sharpton in the White House.

Gee, do you wonder why?  

Do you wonder why the Urban League summit in Philadelphia was filled with talk of eliminating punishment for school behavior, or criminal behavior, or violent behavior?
Did you wonder why, last year in July/August 2012 President Obama signed an executive order to assist “Blacks Only” in getting rid of school punishments, suspensions, et al.

Do you wonder why criminal background checks for employment are now considered racist?   ….And the EEO labor department is facilitating changes to EEO regulations?
Do you wonder why Tom Perez, former DOJ-CRS, Community Relations Service, (Black rights only) head is now in the president’s cabinet as Labor Secretary?
Do you wonder why black former CRS head Ondray Harris quit working for the Administration in DC after he was told to specifically punish white people, and to only hire black people.
Do you wonder why the Obama/DOJ planted, and yes they are planted, left-wing student Marxists are making noise in Tallahassee Florida to get rid of self-defense laws like Stand Your Ground?
Do you wonder why?
Really?

Looks like 2J’s is climbing back aboard the race-baiting express.   The comparison to former Alabama Governor, George Wallace, had to come with full DOJ/Eric Holder approval.   Vivian Malone-Jones (the young black lady who was the center of the George Wallace issue) is Eric Holder’s sister-in-law.
The entire fiasco set up in Tallahassee Florida is race-baiting ridiculous in the extreme.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Florida Gov. Rick Scott on Wednesday demanded an apology from longtime civil rights activist Jesse Jackson for comparing the state’s struggle with the Trayvon Martin case to the civil rights clashes with police during the 1960s in Selma, Ala.

Jackson spent the night with protesters upset that George Zimmerman was found not guilty of second-degree murder in the shooting death of Martin. They’ve refused to leave the Capitol until Scott calls a special session to have legislators overhaul the state’s self-defense laws.
Jackson called Florida the “Selma of our time” and even compared Scott to former Alabama Gov. George Wallace. While he was governor, Wallace famously stood in the door at the University of Alabama to try to block the entry of two black students. (more…)

(Via Peoples Cube)   The Department of Social Justice is contemplating several charges against the racist George Zimmerman for his cold-blooded murder of the post-infant and minority representative Trayvon Martin.Evidence compiled by the Federal Bureau of Investigation of Citizens has found Zimmerman to be guilty of at least several major civil rights-related crimes.
Having found no sign of racism in Zimmerman’s background, prosecutors plan to file charges of Involuntary Racism in the Commission of a Hate Crime, punishable by up to 20 years of labor in a correctional facility. Party officials believe this is the most appropriate charge based on the FBIC’s report. (more…)

Man-o-man, Morgan is really trying his level best to instigate this poor Hanson fellow.  Big pat on the back to Mr. Hanson who retains a laser-like focus on reality and refuses to wander off into Crazyville with Piers Morgan.    Sheeesh….

Many people are framing the difference between the “libertarian wing” of the GOP against the “Decepticon wing” of the GOP establishment, as a point where libertarians meet left-wing progressives on the political spectrum. (Looking at you Brit Hume)
This is ideologically and fundamentally wrong, and leading to confusion. So let me interject after the Hannity video and reset the framework so that a larger understanding is intellectually absorbed. First the video:

CNS News – Reverend Al Sharpton, known for racially divisive rhetoric as an activist, political candidate, and talk show host, accused conservatives Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and Bill O’Reilly — who he termed “the unholy triumvirate of right-wing reaction” —  of “exploiting differences between us for their own advantage” following the George Zimmerman verdict.
“We have a long history in this country of some people exploiting differences between us for their own advantage,” Sharpton said on his MSNBC talk show, Politics Nation, on Friday. “It’s a cynical appeal to the worst instincts in our great country.”
