A Question no one wants to Answer.

I never really expected to get an answer to my question, (Why is it wrong to compare blacks or anyone for that matter to apes) yesterday as it was mostly an intellectual exercise. The fact is, there really is no good reason why we cannot compare anyone to looking like apes. We are all very simian like in looks, of course individually some more than others. For instance President Bush does resemble a monkey, but could you make the same comparison regarding an equally simian looking black, without being crucified? That answer is a resounding absofreakinlutely not. No one should be systemically discriminated against because of color, sex, religion or racial discrimination, and laws are in place to ensure such.
Let me get now to the important issue that is being overlooked by most, freedom of speech is sacrosanct and while this is not a freedom of speech issue in the purest sense, it is nonetheless worth examining as one. There is no way anyone group should be able to exercise control over another through limiting their speech or self expression, it is discriminatory plain and simple. Unless such behavior is a contractual obligation as in a moral clause for employment. Part of freedom is the freedom to hate or love whomever you choose, regardless of whose feelings might be hurt. There can be no such thing as freedom from offense for two reasons. One is, offense is far to subjective as everyone is offended by something. Who is to say in a fair manner whose feelings must be protected and whose ignored? Secondly and most important of the two is, speech that we find abhorrent is the most important speech to protect of all. For example, I do not like or agree with desecration of the American flag, but I would loathe to see it become punishable by law to do so. The argument that men died for that flag is anathema to me, I find the idea absurd. Men died for what that flag represents and that is freedom, strangely enough to most that would include behavior such as flag burning.
In my belief hate crime laws are also wholly unconstitutional and unnecessary, the should all be repealed for the obvious reason. Through their good intentions hate crime laws do nothing but elevate the importance of some people over another according to race, sex, religion or sexual choices. They are also never administered equally, which is an affront to our constitution and all its amendments.
The behavior and reaction to the termination of Roseanne’s television show is an embarrassment to Free speech, but not just on the left, but on the right also where idiots were clamoring for the termination of other who were merely exercising free speech and personal opinion. The number of absolutely false social networking postings have reached and all time high, supposed conservatives not caring for honesty or truth. Then there are the multitudes of cowards on both sides who are fearful or angered by any honest discussion on the subject of racism and bigotry in a much broader sense.
What we as Americans need to understand, systemic racism in the United States was statistically nil before the election of our first black President. After 8 years of political pandering to radicalism on every front including the black community, there is a justifiable sense of division in this great country. Pandering to these groups by lending them further power over speech and social expression will not fix the problem. What will fix the problem is to move forward 100% equal , yet confident in our country’s healing ability , yet no longer insecure about our place or demanding of special treatment or double standards.
Let’s stop being children and instead be citizens of the greatest country ever, the United States of America.

Martin Luther King Jr Day, bah humbug!

#BlackHistory, #MartinLutherKingJr, #RacialAmerica

​The Martin Luther King Jr. holiday no longer has any real meaning, since black leaders, special interest groups and many in the black community havery completely turned their back on his message of equality through peace. Today the Black community is so consumed by their desire for retribution against and power over the white community, they know longer deserve to associate with the memory of such a great leader. The specter of MLK Jr. Is more often than not trotted out disingenuously by blacks and whites alike as a method to appear more racially open minded. I suggest to all of those aforementioned, watch and or listen to all the available MLK Jr. speeches you can get your hands on, all available in your library, on YouTube, in audio book form and you can Google to find specific speeches. The man’s words transcend typical political rhetoric and if you possess even a meager IQ they should resonate within you. I will never celebrate this day as a holiday but I do celebrate the great man Dr. Martin Luther King Jr and his words.

Those of you who cry inequality the loudest, are the least equal.

So it’s 2015 and you wonder to yourself why is there still racial and sexual tension and resentment, how could this be with all the strides forward we’ve made, with regards to equal treatment for all. The answer would be, affirmative action and government enforced diversity in hiring practice. There are quotas to this day, that force the employment of Women, Blacks and Hispanics first in many of our federal, state and local agencies. I really can’t be more clear about this, if you support these practices, vote for those who are, or are the recipient of such preferential treatment whether you seek it out or not, you are damaging the very social structure of our country and diluting the workforce with inferior and under qualified people. Academic testing and physical standards have been lowered to facilitate these quotas and accommodate the protected minorities. This practice has taken place in some key areas of public service such as; the Military, federal law enforcement, state and local policing, fire and rescue departments and there are many others.
The answer is a simple one intellectually, but much harder to implement, end all affirmative action and quotas now, and demand excellence from all across the spectrum. Reinstating the highest standards will not only ensure an end to all preferential treatment it will guarantee the best most qualified person will be filling these key positions. Are you for equality, are you equal or are you a ward of the state who needs preferential treatment?

On Matters Racial and Black History Month

I just cannot in good conscience support “Black History month”, it is and was a failed attempt at appeasement. There is much rich and worthwhile history marking countless contributions by the American black community, the problem is, many black families don’t teach thes.e accomplishments or celebrate the great men and women of African heritage. Instead they perpetuate racism and hatred through their actions and reactions togum their fellow Americans who are not of color. Equality in America in the twenty first century should have long since ended all government sponsored programs to stroke a certain disenfranchised portion of Americans who through their own choice refuse to move forward, politically, socially and attitudenally. Freedom and equality must start with a releasing of the past, not forgetting but a moving forward away from, race and it’s use as a battering ram to reap them over representative power amongst their fellow citizens. Easier said then done, but equality and it’s benefits are worth it. You are not truly equal, till you yourself stop calling to attention how different you are and need to be treated.
