You all remember "Hands Up, Don't Shoot", the demonstrable lie told after the justifiable shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, MO. Subsequent autopsy reports put the lie to that narrative, yet the truth didn't stop the lie from going viral. And, of course, the BLM folks have capitalized on that lie.
It seems that the narrative coming out of Milwaukee is quite different. We start by hearing a man on the street, when asked why they were rioting, telling a reporter 'Rich got all this money and ain't tryin' give none'... Interesting. This isn't about social justice, this is about money, plain and simple. I'm glad he cleared that up for us.
But then, we get to hear from the sister of the deceased career criminal who pointed a gun at a police officer.
“Burning down sh*t ain’t gonna help nothin’,” yells Sherelle Smith.You need your weave? Seriously?
“You’re burnin’ down sh*t we need in our community.”
“Take that sh*t to the suburbs. Burn that sh*t down!” she demands.
“We need our sh*t! We need our weave! I don’t wear it, but we need it!”
That should become the new rallying cry of the Social Justice Warriors. We Need Our Weave! It seems to me that the protesters are finally telling the truth, and that all they really want is our money. This whole scenario is a result, as I highlighted yesterday, of failed liberal urban policies that has given us an underclass with no jobs, no education, no self-sufficiency, and no hope.
That's a damned shame.
I think they should put a tall fence around the whole bunch and once a week throw in guns and ammo. The problem will solve its self.
ReplyDeleteMy son is married to an African American that has family in Milwaukee. Yep, what you are seeing is the result of generational coddling. Her family actually have said, that "why should we leave Milwaukee; we have everything here". In yours and my thoughts we are thinking; grocery stores, hardware stores, etc. In their thinking, it's EBT cards, free health care and section 8 housing.
ReplyDeleteMy daughter in law, bless her heart, is always asking them why don't they get an education and get out into the world and see what it has to offer. They always look at her with something akin to disgust, because she didn't stay on the "plantation".

There are so many screwed up people everywhere that have been raised since birth in an environment that is not conducive to living reasonably and safely with others.
ReplyDeleteWhy does this girl think she has the right to burn down other people's homes and businesses? Why does she think it is natural to take vengence against the police officers who shot her brother when he pointed a loaded gun at them? Why do all the people in her community think this is reasonable?
Likewise:
Why do the men in India think it is OK to rape and abuse any female they find out in public that is not accompanied by 2 male family members, and leave them dead or nearly?
Why do the radical Muslims think it is O.K. to kill anyone they think is an 'infidel'?
Why do the men in the Middle East think women and children are chattel? These groups, such as the Taliban have young boys dance naked for them and it is normal for them to rape these boys. They restrict the women and demand they be covered from head to toe with a burqa and stop them from having any life, education or choice, while essentially imprisoning them as slaves..
Sometimes I think the idea as written in the book 'Childhood's End' may have some actual merit. In it, Aliens come down and enforce world peace, remove all weapons from every country, clear up all the polluted areas, eradicate all the disease and stop anyone who tries to harm another. After 50 years it is realized that they have altered all new children born on earth to know only peace and kindness and they gift the children with super-intellect and the children leave (by levitation) one day and commune together on one continent to further advance mankind. All remaining adults (who knew the old ways) are found to be sterile and all eventually die or kill themselves. This now seems like a good solution after all the terrible behavior we are seeing.
