HAHA! If I was bending a knee with Black people, you wouldn't have the same sentiment! If I was playing the VICTIM, you would be showering me with SJW victim points! Just the way you WHITE GUILT people love to have us as; VICTIMS. That's how you get your moral points, that's how you keep your foot on our necks. You FEAR smart, ambitious minorities whom won't leave your victimhood bubble, where you white guilty people benefit tremendously from. You do NOT care about us. In your head, I'm a "SELL OUT" and I've been "brain washed" by the White conservatives. HAHA! NICE TRY!

This to me is always the most salient point. These people come to America expecting nothing but opportunity - and they find it, to an almost unbelievable degree.

The Black and Native American communities have drunk the victim Kool Aid for so long that most of them can see nothing else. Those who break out of the victim mindset succeed just like the above groups - or any white American.

The current unrest is doing nothing but perpetuating the victim mindset. It is advancing a political agenda. It is doing nothing positive for minority communities. If that political agenda succeeds, it will do nothing positive for minority communities. It's an illusion, a charade.

I won't name names, but I happen to have spent the past 40 years in close association with one of the key minority communities. Never, anywhere, have I seen such genuine racism as within that community. I had one kindly, mature, very liberal white friend who went to work as a teacher within that community with stars in her eyes. This was her opportunity to live out her ideals. She quit in tears before the first year was over, saying she'd never seen or experienced such racism in her life.

If you haven't figured it out that's an enormous clue where you are coming from.
Lital is only speaking the truth. You however have been programmed to say only PC stuff.

Very typical. Someone who uses language like "SJW" has been so heavily indoctrinated by conservative crap over the years they cannot carry on a rational discussion. I don't think all minority people are victims. I do think that some minorities are. The question is whether we are going to do something about it or simply pretend there isn't a problem.

A little example: Republican Senator Tim Scott talked this morning about the police stopped and ticketed him for using his turn signal "later than he should have" to make a turn from a turning lane. He obviously is skeptical (as I am) that this would have happened to a white person. The whole republican leadership of the Senate is acknowledging this is a problem today. Are they all mistaken?

Even the republicans in Congress support a federal law imposing restrictions on our nation's police. Its an argument over degree at this point. Not an argument over whether it is necessary.

Pretending as if they truly care, when they don't. They're much more worried of "missing out" on the virtue signaling and much more worried about not coming off as racist. Much more worried about not upsetting the mob of SJW's. The soy boys, the unicorn haired land whale females, the raging black racist that use these guilty white liberal SUCKAS. All this sympathizing does not but make Black people look like incapable, weak, VICTIMS. "Black Power" my arse. Black Victimhood, that's the truth! This is a continuing cycle of victimhood and pandering to the black community because there's money in it.



When Lil'Squeely, Lil'Moosey, Rey-Rey, Earl and them are murking each other over the weekend, there's never an answer from these same people who want to join in "solidarity" with black people. Or if there's an answer, its still somehow the "Whytes Mans" fault! Oooooor, "SYSTHEMICK RAYCIZM!" JEEZ LOUISE ON TOP OF GRILLED CHEESE!! There's never ANY accountability within the Black community as a whole. Victimhood, pity, pandering to the pathetic plight of Blacks, "solidarity", KNEEING to black people is the name of the game.


People from third world countries, countries ravaged by war, conflicts, mass corruption, genocide, famine, little resources, TRUE discrimination, countries with little to no opportunities for those whom aren't apart of a certain class of individuals; come here and make something of themselves.



Indians, Bengali, Pakistanis, Afghani come to this country of the U.S. en masse. They take over all the gas stations and convenient stores, all the Dunkin Donuts. They also end up being some of the most successful group of people.

Chinese, Koreans, Vietnamese have faced massive hardships and look at them now. Again, some of the most successful people in this country.

Black Africans, many from Western Africa, come to the U.S. and are highly successful. They work hard and diligently. God knows the trials and tribulations they have faced back at their motherland. Meanwhile, their Black American counterparts suck on the tit of victimhood.

Despite all that I have mentioned, Black Americans are the most successful blacks in the world! There's Black billionaires, millionaires, many successful blacks. Whom if they all put their money together, can have their own black "utopia".

Poor blacks live a life of luxury compared to many other poor people from around the world. Yet, VICTIMHOOD and taking a knee is the name of the game.



This pandering MUST stop because its simply never enough for the mob, never enough for the pitiful SJW mutants, never enough for the victimized black people. NEVER ENOUGH. What we're seeing is only the beginning, sooner or later, we won't be able to criticize not only black people but anyone who isn't white. Its already here but its only going to get worse! UNLESS we put a stop to this non-sense NOW.

Are there injustices? Absolutely, I'm not denying that.
Is there racism? Yes but only WEAK MINDS let it make them victims




I'm all for justice being served, no matter what your race, creed, sexuality is. Pandering, being sympathetic, kneeling, crying, showing "solidarity", victimizing, however, is NOT how we are going to fix these issues with Black people. Black people, Black trans, who's next? WHOS NEXT ON THE VICTIM TRAIN.


Lets breed strength, NOT pathetic weaklings!
America is for those who desire luxury and high social status. For those of us who don’t want or care about your society and it’s false strength, we are gone. You’re welcome.

That isn't true in the slightest degree. America offers OPPORTUNITY for those who desire luxury and social status. America offers OPPORTUNITY for those who desire virtually any lifestyle. I had opportunities for luxury and social status, but I simply didn't desire those things. I have no envy for those who did desire them and worked to achieve them.

Your words sound hollow and bitter, like those of someone who desired luxury and social status but simply didn't achieve them, possibly for reasons within your control and possibly for reasons beyond your control. Be grateful for the life you have. No hordes are trying to sneak across the border into any country other than America.

Things do sound bitter to those who hold bitterness within.

Mine was an observation and nothing at all wrong with that observation. Every corner of this earth is an opportunity. People are different. Your way of thinking is just that - yours.

My mixed son:


1) Will not be taught that his skin color is a handicap or disadvantage.
2) Will understand that there are racists in every ethnic group, and they will not affect his success
3) Will always respect authority
4) Knows that he can be anything he sets his mind to, and that backwoods white racists, black racists, and whomever else will not discourage him.





We refuse to play into the current cultural wars and remain focused on personal development, serving others, and reaching goals. He unfortunately has dealt with "stares" or questions from black kids because he isn't totally black. It's unfortunate that many black kids grow up with a negative view of themselves due to their skin color. They are constantly being told how they are oppressed and will not make it without special treatment. The good thing is, we have many friends of all nationalities because we live near a big city and attend a multi-cultural church. He knows the reality, and without influence from victim-baiters and biased media on either side, he is growing up with a very healthy, balanced view of the world and will be successful. His current best friends are white, black, Hispanic, and one Asian mixed. They all have awesome families.

I’m happy since now just maybe you both will return to separation and recognize it when you are causing your own harm by forcing blacks into your society.

Pandering to black people is the lazy way that whites are dealing with the problem. They're not really addressing any of their problems. Because it's impossible in a democratic country. What blacks demand a systematic reform requires a socialist country to hand out the marching orders from top to bottom.

That's not gonna happen when the government doesn't run the businesses, it's the other way around.

Rioting, looting, and violence shows a group of people that are powerless against the system.

Other than a civil war where one side defeats the other, nothing will change. No country ever changes for the sake of a minority group in the history of humans.

Blacks should be grateful that in the 21st century they haven't been persecuted like they do in other countries. Try doing that in the Middle East and Asia and see what they do to minority groups.
