He will blame the shootings in SC on he Confederate flag yet won't mention Islam regarding the shootings of Marines and a Sailor in TN. But he is totally unbiased.
The Left does a great job for standing up against almost all forms of terrorism, racism, misogyny, and apartheid.
EXCEPT.....
the same Left totally supports Islamic terrorism, racism, misogyny, and apartheid.
Jon Stewart sprayed some lighter fluid on the fire. Nothing more. Obama and his cronies are the ones that have set race relations back and have been toting gas cans for his entire administration. Not as bad as the 60's mind you, but he's working on it.
He has accomplished just the opposite of what his claims were when he was running for the presidency the first time. The great divider.
The only people responsible for any 'spike' in support for the KKK, are the people who make up the spike in support for the KKK.
This bares repeating, because a lot of white folks simply haven't got the memo; black people have not stopped talking about racism, they haven't' stopped reporting it, experiencing it. There hasn't been any noticeable surge or spike in racism as far as black people are concerned.
The KKK are a group that is open about their racism. There was a time when white folks weren't ashamed to admit to their racism in public, but as soon as the tide turned, a huge number of racist white folk decided to hide it from plain sight. Not stop it, mind. Just hide it. Not very well, mind you, but the attempt made a lot of white folk believe that since white bed-sheeted simple folk weren't ranting in public like they used to, well, surely things must be much better.
Thats not exactly the same, is it. And if you think that black folk didn't interact with these hidden racists, then more fool you. What does it matter to them, whether they are hidden or not?
So, when it appears that its somewhat more safe to come out with your racism, given that there is effective cover by like-minded racists, well, those hidden racists break cover.
Mrs Jones, the wife of the baker, joins the KKK, because they stand for 'anti political correctness'
Mr Simons, the postman, donates to the KKK because their members share relative links with those who fought in the war
Mr Durant, the salesman, writes long rants against black people in blogs and online forums, because 'there is a war against white people'
And so on.
The common denominator? Mrs Jones, Mr Simons and Mr Durant to black people, have always seemed two-faced, biased and exclusionary. All their interactions with black people seem forced and fake. However, their sudden support for a far right organisation to some white folks, appear to be indicative of some form of public shift, when nothing could be further from the truth.
In short; if an apparent change, has no effect on the ground, it is no change at all.
The only people responsible for any 'spike' in support for the KKK, are the people who make up the spike in support for the KKK.
Completely agree.
Wish the Left would apply the same principle to Islamic terrorism/racism/apartheid, and not make excuses as to why they behave like savages.
Example; If someone draws a Muhammad cartoon and the Islamist kills the cartoonist, according to the Left its the cartoonists fault and not the Islamist, because the Islamist was simply provoked.

Please stop blaming the people who point out racism for perpetuating racism. Make the racists take personal responsibility for their bigotry.
Sad how defensive some of you are in diverting blame away from those in the KKK and elsewhere who are racists.
