Some Black Lives Matter!

I am sure by now everyone in America has heard about the ignorance of these protestors for the “black lives matter” group. The main stream media has made sure that they have coverage of these protestors interrupting a political rally for both Bernie Sanders and Jeb Bush. The message they have for the candidates for president in 2016 is ” that they want police violence and racial disparities in policing to be acknowledged and addressed “. They supposedly wanted to disrupt a campaign event held on Tuesday in New Hampshire for Hillary Clinton, they arrived too late to gain entrance to the event they stated, though they did meet with the candidate after the event.

I would be more willing to believe that they were not allowed entrance to the event by mutual agreement beforehand, the reason for their denial into the event was room capacity had been reached. They even went as far as having the Secret Service verify that as being the reason, the fact that they went to those lengths to point it out throws doubt on it in my opinion. They were allowed to meet with the candidate afterwards in what was referred to as an overflow room. The media was not allowed to record the meeting, which is strange also, because both sides would have wanted to take advantage of the controlled situation and try to score some points with the media and the public. I believe everything was scripted here to obtain the maximum exposure while releasing the minimum amount of information.
You can read the full article here concerning their meeting: Hillary and Black Lives Matter activists meet in private.

A spokesperson/activist from Black Lives Matter told the press later “We asked the secretary about her and her family’s history with the war on drugs both at home and abroad and how she felt about her involvement in that violence that has been perpetuated, especially against communities of color and against black folks.” Yancey, the spokesperson for Black Lives Matter, added that she never heard “a reflection on her part in perpetuating white supremacist violence.”

Another clear reason a candidate would want the meeting reported in the news media, they would want to address allegations like those immediately and decisively in a public forum.
Black Lives Matter, at that point accused Hillary of ” involvement in the violence that has been perpetuated, especially against communities of color and against black folks.”  They also appear to have labeled her as ” perpetuating white supremacist violence.”

You see, if Hillary Clinton doesn’t address the statement made by Black Lives Matter, both sides win. Black Lives Matter wins, because they are seen as asking the tough no holds barred questions of the candidate. And Hillary wins because by not addressing it publicly, she appears to accept her role in these supposed crimes against the black community, her silence also helps her to appear repentant in the matter. As I stated above, I am more inclined to believe that the whole thing was scripted from start to finish, this allowed both parties to project a certain image in the situation. Yet if you notice, there was no information released by either side that has any basis in reality, such as specifics concerning violence by police, or incarceration rates for young black males. If nothing is presented, nothing can be questioned or fact checked.

I veered some from my original intentions of the article when I realized that something was wrong as reported. Under normal circumstances both Hillary (as a presidential candidate) and the Black Lives Matter group would have been fighting for press time and to score some political points.

In the next post I will cover the issues presented by the tactics and strategy  of the group Black Lives Matter.

The Propaganda Machine Needs repairing

I know, I know, you are wondering why I seem to be wasting time on something like this when there are so many more important things going on in our country. And I understand, but exposing how the democrats constantly use propaganda on the no and low information voters is important also. I am going to share this post that is circulating around the web from “occupy democrats”, and break it down a little. I’m not a big fan of the republicans, but I will give them a little credit, they don’t seem to reach the lows the democrats do. Well let’s jump in here and see what we’ve got. Here is the photo from occupy demonrats, oops I mean democrats, sorry.

Propaganda at Work

Let us start with the top section of this lovely info-graphic and see where it leads us. You won’t need to pack a lunch, this won’t take long.

Hopple Street Bridge

I would guess from the “last night” part this was created and posted on January 20, 2015. This is the Hopple Street bridge overpass in Cincinnati, Oh, that spans over I-75. What occupy democrats (and the democratic party in general) try to create here is an emotional response when tied in with the phrase further down the picture. What they fail to mention is that this bridge was no longer in service and was in the process of being demolished. A new bridge was already in service, and the collapse was contractor error and had nothing to do with any politics from either party.
From Cincinnati.com –18 Months Later, The Hopple St. Bridge Collapse

Now when you add the next section of the picture it implies that the republicans are responsible for the bridge collapse due to their action (or in-action) on the infrastructure bill.

From The Fiscal Times – 478 Billion Infrastructure Bill Blocked by Senate GOPLet’s see what this article says…

What I see dick durbin saying here is both parties used to care, and couldn’t wait to get on the committee to help their district.
Of course we see in the second paragraph where dick has to make sure he throws in the “Tea Party” to elicit that emotional response and create more talking points. I am sure he understands that the Tea Party representation is too small to make or break any legislation on their own. The GOP leadership does everything it can to minimize the effect of the Tea Party members also. Neither party is happy with the Tea Party because they won’t play the “politics as usual” game in Washington.

Back to the main point though, the info-graphic says a few months ago senate republicans blocked the bill. Correct me if I’m wrong here, but isn’t obama in his 7th year in office? And how long did he have a majority in the house and senate? If the democrats were so concerned about the infrastructure why was nothing  done then? That’s okay though, they did nothing for years when they had control, but let’s blame the republicans from a vote a few months ago.

Which brings us to the last piece of this oh so cool little propaganda picture.
We can re-visit my previous point here, hasn’t obama been in office for 7 years, with a democratic majority for part of that time? So if we are still spending $700,000,000,000 a year on war, who should we question?

“because i’m white”

“because i’m white” is my new blog I am going to be working on along with this one. The new blog is dedicated to trying to get people involved in talking about race relations in America. As most of you probably know, the state of race relations really sucks in our country right now. The first step is to get people thinking about it, this is my attempt at step one.

https://becauseimwhite.wordpress.com/

Branching Out

I have decided I am going to launch a new blog that I feel there is an absolute need for, and it is long overdue also. The blog will be centered around the language that we hear from most of the political left, and from the many influential voices in the black community.

Many black and white people are given a pass by the main stream media for racist comments, attitudes and sometimes outright lies. They are given this pass because they are democrats or liberals and share the same agenda as the media does. The media insists that it is not biased, yet refuse to call out many black people on obviously racist comments, simply because they are black. They seem to apply similar standards to most of the political left in general.

Conservatives are held to a totally different standard though by most in the regular media, if not for alternative media the truth of what many conservatives say would not even be heard. I have been saying for many years that we need to have more dialogue on race relations. I have even tried different times on facebook and on other blogs to initiate dialogue, with little to no success. It is time someone brings to the fore front what is actually said and by whom, and keeps people, black and white, accountable for their words.

The last Bit of Evidence Destroyed…

They have now managed to hide any evidence of their deception in Newtown, CT with the demolition of the house alleged shooter Adam Lanza lived in. Their excuse was that several neighbors were bothered by it. With the secretive demolition of the school building and now the house, no supposed crime scenes now exist to prove anything different then the inconsistent official version of what happened that day the crisis actors and training exercise took place.

I may seem like a conspiracy theorist (my tin-foil hat is out being refurbished at the moment) but we have been lied to so many times by this administration that even the truth is suspect when it comes from them.

Taking Turns Holding the Handle! (part 1)

I get so angry many days just doing one simple thing, reading the news. In my opinion about 75% of the stuff that is trying to pass for news or information is complete bullshit. Yet for some reason people eat it up, and worse yet they share it with others. If the title doesn’t clue them in to the absurdity of the story, the story itself should. Do they ever think to actually check the facts, or wonder about the website, is it legit, propaganda or just trying to get it’s clicks to make it’s money?

America is going to hell in hand basket, and most of us are taking turns holding the handle. The biggest problem is our ego, left-wing, center, right-wing, does it matter where you stand if you can’t see the truth? I’d like to say, ask yourself honestly, but that’s the problem right there, most people can’t. We used to be a society that questioned not only ourselves, we questioned the media and most importantly we questioned our leaders. It is actually one of our responsibilities as citizens to question our leaders, too many simply just follow anymore. I have actually read statements where some people (mostly liberals) have tried to say that we should not question our leaders, that it’s not right to. These people apparently have no idea that the very foundation of our country is based on “we the people” not “we the government”.

We seem to have become a country of special interests, our own interests and absolutely no interest. This is where that ego I mentioned in the last paragraph comes in. So many people identify so strongly with, or invest so heavily in their political or personal ideals, that their ego won’t allow them to see anything else. They won’t admit they are wrong, because so much of who they are is invested in that identity that they don’t know how to be anyone or anything else. They are part of a group, they belong to something, too many (liberals) have become too weak to stand alone.

It’s truly ironic that our country was founded on the individual, our documents designed to promote and protect the rights and privileges of the individual. Each of us had the right to think and associate as individuals. Today everyone is automatically labeled and grouped (not always by choice) based simply on their thoughts and associations. Those that attempt to be an individual, to stand and be heard as one, are criticized and ridiculed with a poison and a passion I can only classify as evil by those (liberals) too weak stand alone.

 

A Problem For Every Solution

Where is my White Privilege?

Where is my White Privilege, or is it a pigment of my Imagination?

I want to know where I sign up for my white privilege, I sure could use the extra help right now. I am out of work on comp after getting hurt on the job. Is there a list of extra benefits due to me as a white person, or do I just develop an entitlement attitude like many in the black community have, and my white privilege will kick in? I wish I had known back in the sixties about my white privilege, I could have used it to stop my parents from getting a divorce. That would have allowed me a better opportunity to grow and develop as a normal child. It might have prevented me from stuttering every other word from the time I started talking until I was in my mid-thirties.

Or I could have engaged it in the mid-seventies to avoid committing criminal acts and ending up in a N.Y. State juvenile facility. Or a couple years later when I quit school and went to work at 16 years old. I could have used that white privilege to get a decent job, instead I worked as a bus boy and a dishwasher. If I would have had a father growing up, he could have instructed me on the proper use of my “whitpriv” my “caucasian persuasion”, my “pigment present”.

Apparently they are teaching the kids in school about white privilege now, I could have used some lessons, it might have helped me later to sidestep the drug and alcohol issues that I experienced. But then again if I had known how to use it I would have missed out on the joys I experienced in the many wonderful jobs I had over time. Jobs such as shoveling horse shit all day, or baling hay, pumping gas, picking vegetables (yes just like a migrant worker), dishwasher again, delivery person (both pizza and parts). I guess my privilege kicked in a little as I got older because I was able to get some really high quality employment then, construction laborer, bathroom and toilet cleaner, the pinnacle of success was my job answering phones all day (getting yelled at by rich people) for just over minimum wage.

The white privilege people say that because I can turn on the television or open the front page to the newspaper and see my my race widely represented, that is proof right there of it’s existence. And I thought it was because my race is the majority population, where is my common sense? Another clear indicator according to the race patrol, is the fact that I can arrange to be in the company of my own race most of the time. The majority of black people chose to live in black neighborhoods, does that give them black privilege? Most people tend to gravitate to areas with people they can identify with, by race, national origin, political agenda and even socioeconomic class. So if black or latino people want to live around other black or latino people it’s normal, but if white people want to, it’s racist.

It pisses me off to find out now in my mid fifties that I could have avoided growing up in poverty and having all of those negative life experiences, had I just engaged my “white privilege”. And apparently I lost my white privilege or it  had an expiration date on it, now that I am aware of it, I looked all over for it and it’s no place to be found. I’m thinking about putting posters up around the neighborhood, with all of the white people around some one must have seen it, hopefully it will be returned unopened and in good working order. I could really use it about now, living under the poverty level like I do.

And then there are the highly respected left wing nut jobs at the “white privilege” conference, we can’t rule out their highly evolved and advanced skill levels at rooting out white privilege in even the darkest corners of society. Fortunately they were able to make us aware of the excessive use of white privilege by Tea Party members. Who they described as having forms of racism ranging from “sort of generic to bald-faced racism”, is bald faced racism something clean shaven men practice?

According to the speaker there the Tea Party doesn’t really support “All this business about government and ‘constitutional’ it is a smokescreen that’s really all about, ‘I want this country back for me.’ And ‘me’ meaning ‘white people’. He even elaborated further on his brilliant summation by “noting that tea party supporters do not like to be called racists, the leftist activist suggested that tea party advocates mostly don’t like obama because obama “broke the white monopoly on the presidency.” Dam how did he figure out the true reason some white people don’t like obama, he broke our perfect record on old white men as president, we were trying for an even fifty. We are starting all over, it’s gonna take us another 200 years now.

And don’t forget the brain trusts he has involved in the question and answer period,a woman asked: “What is, like, an African-American tea party member? How could there be one?”

He said he doesn’t know “how people could do it” but compared black people who support limited government and gun rights to “Jewish kluxers.”

The speaker repeatedly referred to black people as “black folks.” He bizarrely suggested that “black folks” didn’t know about the tea party movement when it began because it wasn’t a topic of discussion “at the barber shop.” He also adamantly suggested that there are “no gay people in the tea party,” and that constitutional government and a free-market economy cannot coexist.

At the beginning of his talk, he had asked audience members to volunteer to speak about themselves.

“I live in the bowels of the tea party, and I have the privilege of teaching your children,” explained one White Privilege Conference attendee — a woman with a Southern accent. I am glad she went into such detail and really explained her position, we can really see where she is coming from and her true concerns.

“I teach at a very elite boarding school,” explained a second woman who said she is from the Boston area. She said the school is “full of tea partiers” who “try to, you know baptize” political opponents. This really surprises me, she happens to teach at the only elite boarding school in all of New England that is not totally liberal, what are the odds of that? And I think I have heard of the baptizing antics of the “Boston Family” of the tea party, run by “whitey”, they outfitted their enemies with rubber shoes didn’t they?

A third woman, from Minnesota, lamented that the Minnesota Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party is moving “towards what they call the middle” and becoming “welcoming to the needs of independent voters.” As the woman trailed off after “independent voters,” he interjected “…which means tea party,” as a way to label such voters.

A fourth woman said she attended his lecture because her “in-laws get all their news from Fox.” Michael J. Fox is not all that informative, but I guess she has her reasons. Oh, wait, I think she might mean Fox News Channel. I guess the channel her in-laws watch is as good a reason as any to be concerned about white privilege.

At least I think the lecture was about white privilege, it almost sounded more like a bash the tea Party lecture, maybe he was trying to multi-mask…

The Atomic Face Palm

I am sure I will sound racist, because you can’t bring up race issues without being a racist if you are white. But I just can’t believe sometimes the things I read that liberals think and actually say out loud. Some liberals are complaining because in a majority black neighborhood, police are stopping more black people then white people. Police are actually searching more black people then white people in a majority black neighborhood.

This is totally unfair, I think we should start busing in more white criminals, as we did with the schools years ago, to achieve a greater balance. We can even streamline the process and have the bus go directly to the local police precinct, once there the police can figure out what tickets or charges would most benefit the statistics and act accordingly to create more of a balance in these neighborhoods.

I have to stop myself from reading what the liberals have to say, between face-palming and beating my head against the wall, my head is starting to hurt all the time. There is an upside, the cat stopped reading over my shoulder, even she was amazed by the liberal stupidity and she can’t even read, but she threw out a paw from face-pawing, so she won’t read that crap anymore

Feline Face Paw-mmm
