I listened to Obama's denouncement of Wright yesterday with great interest. Having watched Obama's first speech on race... I was prepared to hear yet another justification on how people like Wright are justified to say what they want based upon their perceived experience with racism in this country. 

That's not what I heard. What I heard was a man denounce division-istic tactics like Wright and many others use... what I heard was a man declare that we all need to come to the table in a positive constructive way to plot a course forward. What I heard was a Black Man who stepped outside of his Black Skin to look at the United States in an objective, non-biased way. 

I guess the bottom line is... what I heard was impressive... positive..... and constructive.

Watch your kids next week folks....

Beat Up a White Kid Day is the colloquial name for racially motivated attacks that occur on May 1 where African American, Hispanic, and other people of color randomly seek out white (Caucasian) children and attack them. First publicized in Cleveland, Ohio, USA[1] in 1993 following the May 1, 1992 national appeal for calm by Rodney King during the 1992 Los Angeles riots, these attacks occur on May 1, mostly in connections with schools.[citation needed] These occurrences were recognized through an October 2003 U.S. court proceeding, where an Ohio judge concluded that "based on the evidence I've heard, May Day is reality and the evidence was overwhelming that this was an attack based on May Day and that the victim was chosen because she was white."[2]

I recently read a race stirring piece on MyVoiceDC entitled Sean Bell’s Live Worth 3/5ths by Brandon Whitney.  http://www.myfoxwfld.com/myvoicedc/  

Brandon starts off by saying that many in the African American community weren’t surprised by the verdict… and then he links the failure of convicting police who use excessive force to Whites valuing African American lives at 3/5ths that of a White person.

Not long ago, right here in Northern Virginia, Officer Carl Stowe shot and killed Aaron Brown outside of the Alexandria IHOP…. However in Aaron’s case, there were no allegations of a gun in the vehicle.

Officer Carl Stowe was acquitted of all charges… 

So let me tell you something Brandon….  3/5th of nothing is nothing.

My question would be, would the African American community be so outraged had the judge been African American? 

Should America have two separate justice systems… one for African American’s and one for Whites? …. And perhaps in the event of cross racial crimes, a board of both Justices could be convened to determine the verdict?

Personally, I think the two African American and one Latino Cops should have been prosecuted for shooting the African American Sean Bell…. But then again… I suppose my opinion only counts for 3/5th of an African Americans’.

Last night, about 100 protesters swarmed the 103rd Precinct in Jamaica, shouting "F- - - the police" and "Blue-eyed devils" at dozens of cops who stood shoulder to shoulder. The demonstrators then marched down Jamaica Avenue to club Kalua, where the 2006 tragedy unfolded.

On the heals of Starmans informative post on preventing prostate cancer... which I am happy to say I should be free and clear of.... I bring you a travel advisory for West Africa... be careful folks.... there are eye witnesses....

Police in Congo have arrested 13 suspected sorcerers accused of using black magic to steal or shrink men’s penises after a wave of panic and attempted lynchings triggered by the alleged witchcraft.

Reports of so-called penis snatching are not uncommon in West Africa, where belief in traditional religions and witchcraft remains widespread, and where ritual killings to obtain blood or body parts still occur.

As the main stream media has been negligent as usual in delivering fair and balanced news... the victims of the vicious racially tainted lie spread by Obama delegate Rozita Swinton... have spoken.

Polygamist Obama Race Link

Child Protection Project founder Linda Walker and the Phoenix-based group's executive director, Flora Jessop, said Friday they were stunned when they learned the woman's identity. 

"In her little baby voice, she said, 'If you rescue me, and I get out of here, do you think the black people will hurt me?' " Walker said. "She had done her homework. She knew it was a racist cult. We know that these kids are very frightened of black people 

This incident comes on the heels of a report from the South Poverty Law Center, claiming the religious order was “racist.”

I wonder what the real motivation in all this lies… clearly lies upon lies upon lies has led mothers to be separated from their children and people treated like cattle as they are dna’d and tagged. 

Who exactly is intolerant of whom in this case? The media has absolutely pounced on these folks… to the point of claiming a sex bed in their church were underage virgin brides were deflowered at the hands of their old and perverted new husbands.

Does anyone see a pattern here? Who exactly does the media stick up for? As SteveCanton blogged… this was a blanket warrant placed upon hundreds of people based upon a lie created with racial undertones… linked to a presidential candidate.

The recent story on Fox about the Civil War artifacts found in Stafford

STAFFORD — Before Stafford County can build the school system’s sixth high school it must clear out some leftover artifacts from a bygone era.

The 172 arces of land allocated to build the school sits on Leeland Road, and on what used to be a Civil War base camp to house infantrymen. In order to the get the proper permits for the construction of the school, the site has to be excavated by mandate of the state’s historic commission, according to Jeff Lamberson, director of construction for Stafford County Public Schools.

“We’re losing opportunities like this every day to look at a large undeveloped site dating back to the Civil War. It’s pretty neat the stuff we have found out here,” said Lamberson.

The Band

Virgil Caine is the name, and I served on the Danville train,
'Til Stonewall's cavalry came and tore up the tracks again.
In the winter of '65, We were hungry, just barely alive.
By May the tenth, Richmond had fell, it's a time I remember, oh so well,

The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, and the bells were ringing,
The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, and all the people were singin',
They went Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na,
Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na

Back with my wife in Tennessee, When one day she called to me,
"Virgil, quick, come and see, there goes Robert E. Lee!"
Now I don't mind choppin' wood,
and I don't care if the money's no good.
Ya take what ya need and ya leave the rest,
But they should never have taken the very best.

The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, and the bells were ringing,
The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, and all the people were singin',
They went Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na,
Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na

Like my father before me, I will work the land,
Like my brother above me, who took a rebel stand.
He was just eighteen, proud and brave,
But a Yankee laid him in his grave,
I swear by the mud below my feet,
You can't raise a Caine back up when he's in defeat.

Late Monday afternoon and early Tuesday morning, jurors heard graphic testimony from Knox County Acting Medical Examiner Dr. Darinka Mileusnic-Polchan about the deaths of Newsom and Christian.

She told jurors that Newsom was repeatedly raped and then blindfolded, gagged, arms and feet bound and his head covered. Barefoot, he was either led or dragged outside the house to a set of nearby railroad tracks, where a gun was placed to the back of his head and fired. He was shot twice more, once in the neck and once in the back. His body was then set afire, she said.

Christian’s death would come only after hours of sexual torture, Mileusnic-Polchan testified.

Christian suffered horrific injuries to her vagina, anus and mouth. She was not only raped but savaged with “an object,” the doctor testified. She was beaten in the head. Some type of chemical was poured down her throat, and her body, including her bleeding and battered genital area, likely scrubbed with the same solution—all while Christian was alive, the forensic expert said.

She was then “hog-tied,” with curtains and strips of bedding, her face covered tightly with a small white trash bag and her body stashed inside five large trash bags before being placed inside a large trash can and covered with sheets, Mileusnic-Polchan testified.

Christian died slowly, suffocating, the medical examiner said.

“My conclusion was she actually died in the trash can,” Mileusnic-Polchan testified.

Very strange. Could this be where our courts are heading?

I also wonder how the State feels they can get a fair trial for the people when the judge coverts with the defendants. 

I've seen a lot of strange things come from liberal judges, but clearing a courtroom based upon race is a first. 

I guess not many people care though. This story wasn't picked up by the AP, and only ran on two local news stations. I find it very disturbing. How can the judge claim impartiality when he holds a racially exclusive court? 

Isn't this the type of stuff we struggled against during the Civil Rights movement? 

Ahhh… the weather… the sun, the warm breeze, the birds, the bees… and the bullets.

Such a shame, our nation’s capital. A city which should be the crowning jewel of this country, a place where social policies have seen one failure after another. Countless millions upon millions of dollars have been given to DC to fund social and welfare programs, there is even a hand gun ban, yet DC is still one of the most violent places around, filled with poverty and crime.

How embarrassing for this country, and what a shame the streets aren’t even safe enough for a 7 year old to play. Sometimes I think the best thing this country could do is, through attrition, make DC a non-living zone. As the people move or die, the federal government should buy the property back and give it back to the people in the form of parks, museums and other cultural attractions. Of course, we’d have to keep the business districts, but all residential districts should be returned to the people.

Perhaps the Latino confusion over the new Prince William County Illegal Immigration laws is due to the FEDERAL Immigration raid on CMC Concrete in Manassas a couple of days ago, who appears like they had 34 illegal aliens depressing American wages and taking American jobs all while putting an artificial profit in CMC Concretes pockets.

Well, I can understand how that would cause confusion. Here you have an American company hiring illegal immigrants, you’re used to not having to worry about Federal authorities, you found out that local authorities were going to start “cracking down” and then BAM… you were paying attention to the locals and the Feds swooped in.

My question is…. Who the hell cares what the Latino community of Prince William County thinks? If you’re legal, the law doesn’t apply. If you’re illegal, then you got a problem. Where is the confusion in that? Looks pretty clear cut to me.

Legal: conforming to or permitted by law or established rules 

Illegal: not according to or authorized by law

Perhaps the confusion comes over the language barrier. 

Now, my other question is, why isn’t the media exposing CMC Concrete… you wasted 5 good minutes on a very small part of Prince William County confused about a painfully clear law instead of focusing on CMC Concrete. Who are these people, and why do they think they can break Federal Law? How about that for a NewsEdge at 11 story?

What is a typical White person? Are there other races that can be stereotyped as well?

You see... we all make generalities... even Obama, and now we know how he views Whites.

The State Department just released a scathing report on global anti-Semitism, which equated to defining any criticism of Israel as anti-Semitic.

Various U.N. agencies are asked each year to investigate what are often "sensationalized reports of alleged atrocities and other violations of human rights by Israel," the document said.

Such unremitting criticism of Israel "intentionally or not encourages anti-Semitism."

- - - 

I wonder... If I disagree with the policies of Israel... would I be an anti-Semite? 

If I published those thoughts... could I be convicted of a hate crime? 

(I initially was going to write that I did disagree with the policies of Israel... however deleted it because I just didn't know. If a news story pops up about Israel... am I allowed to blog on it?) 

What are your thoughts? As Americans... do we have the right to criticize the foreign policy of Israel as well as the "alleged" human rights abuses in Gaza and the West Bank?)

The Mayor of Detroit drops the N-Bomb during a news conference. 

DETROIT — Michigan Attorney General Mike Cox says Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick is a liar and a race-baiter who's unfit for office and should resign for the community's good. 

Cox tells WJR-AM's Lloyd Jackson he was shocked by the black leader's televised use of the N-word and his appeal for support while attacking opponents as racist. 

Why is okay for Kwame to drop the N-Bomb on Live TV and the MSM doesn't bat an eye? Is it because he is black? Could any other American get away with the same thing? Al Sharpton buried the N-Word live on TV.... he had marches and has lobbied congress to make Dropping the N-Bomb a hate crime.... Would Kwame been prosecuted? 

Well we all know what it's called when you treat two sets of people differently based on their race.... it's called discrimination.... and every MSM outlet is guilty for not batting an eye. No doubt there were blacks that were offended during the news conference, expecting to hear some sort of explanation.... perhaps apology from Kwame... but no, what he did was was call everyone racist and then he "fired for effect" when he dropped the N-Bomb... thinking that launching such a fantastic weapon of racism would stop any further investigation into his lying and cheating.  

What a shame.

So many "random" acts of violence. God, I'm getting so sick and tired of seeing this.
