Hiring Someone Because They Are Black is Just As Racist As Not Hiring Someone Because They Are Black

Former Community Relations Service Director, Ondray Harris, quit last year because he was under pressure in Washington DC to only hire black people.   Mr. Harris saw this as discrimination.   President Obama signed an executive order in 2010 to change school disciplinary standards for only black males.  Now this….. 

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama is obtaining commitments from foundations, businesses and community groups to help young minority men improve their employment opportunities and to intervene before some of them get sucked into the criminal justice system.

Obama is launching the “My Brother’s Keeper” initiative Thursday, matching his State of the Union pledge to “help more young men of color … stay on track and reach their full potential.”

The president has invited business, foundation and community leaders to the White House Thursday to announce the effort.

The unemployment rate last month for African-American men over the age of 20 was 12 percent, compared with 5.4 percent for white men. Hispanic men over the age of 20 faced an unemployment rate of 8.2 percent.  (read more)

You won’t see this outside of local news because, yet again, it presents an uncomfortable reality.

Tampa FL – […] The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s office says they called in 60 extra deputies that night from the surrounding area.

“There was a strong presence from the Sheriff’s Office out there, but we were tapped to our limits,” said Colonel Jim Previtera with the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office.

Even the extra deputies were overwhelmed.

“We literally had deputies who were out there with no back up engaged in fights. (more…)

Famous for his insufferable naiveté surrounding Trayvon Martin, actor Jamie Fox joins a peace walk in Miami Gardens.   The profound stupidity of the entire fiasco is exemplified in the fact that Trayvon Martin’s father, Tracy “Fruit” Martin, was specifically the one engaged with his son to discuss purchasing a handgun for him. 

…Yet there he is, in the front row, nodding and clapping away !    

The information about Trayvon’s father and guns was hidden from the general public by the media refusing to cover it.  It was discovered during a late night evidentiary proffer hearing when the contents of Trayvon’s phone were being argued as admissible or not.

(Via Truth Revolt)  This past Saturday in Miami Gardens, actor Jamie Foxx helped lead a peace walk through the streets to a local complex where a rally was held in remembrance of Trayvon Martin.  During his remarks, Foxx suggested that gun violence is mostly a problem for black Americans.

“The blood that flows through America that is from gun violence is mostly African-American, and yet you young black folk sit here mute and ya’ll don’t say nothing about it.”

Foxx is not one to shy from controversy. The actor wore a “Know Justice, Know Peace” shirt with Trayvon’s face on it to the 2013 MTV Movie Awards.

The transparency of the progressive movement is obvious.   In the 2012 election cycle we were introduced to Sandra Fluke and her demands of tax-payer funded contraception; this evolved into the ‘War On Women’ faux-outrage campaign.

In this 2014 election cycle the angst needs additional victimization check boxes.  Ergo you are being introduced to a “black” (check box one for race/victimization),  “gay” (check box two for sexual orientation/victimization), “collegiate football player” (check box three for youth vote/victimization), Michael Sam, who announces his sexual orientation as a measure of his fluke-like worthiness to the progressive left.

Whether Michael Sam is a good football player, a man of strong moral fiber, or an intellectual powerhouse, is irrelevant to the cause.

If he does not get drafted into the NFL the narrative will be because he’s gay and the NFL is homophobic – A successful victim, very useful.

If he does get drafted into the NFL it will be because the world is changing and *despite his victimization* he has succeeded.   A successful victim, very useful.

One only needs to look at how the progressive left is scripting the introduction to know that YOU WILL SEE THIS NAME EVERY DAY FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR.

“His story sends a message to LGBT, young people, especially young black men, that you are free to show up in the world as your authentic self and others will embrace you”. (USA Today)

If he does get not drafted a coast-to-coast “Democrats In 2014”  bus tour campaign win begin.   Eventually leading to Michael Sam being the Missouri 2016 Senate or House Candidate. (more…)

David Simon, a former police beat reporter in Baltimore, MD and creator of the popular television series, “The Wire” implies that Libertarians in America are “greedy” and decries Libertarianism as a “juvenile” idea that he “just can’t get past….”  

Clearly upset that Fabian ideology is not taking root in the 20-somethings community, while the Libertarian movement is growing as an identified political affiliation in the cohort,  he gave a speech in Australia in November, 2013 at the “Dangerous Ideas” conference declaring “Libertarianism in my country is now being taken seriously as an intelligent mode of political thought… it’s astonishing to me… ” (around the 8:00 – 10:00 mark) and then goes on a screed to deliberately disparage and attempt to dismiss the Libertarian school of thought – including the assertion that Libertarians are “anti-government” (as Moyers chuckles along in agreement…)  Fraidy cat!

This is funny on many levels, and this is not a spoof – which makes it even funnier…

CONCORD, CA — Officials at a Northern California private school are apologizing after a lunch menu option to celebrate Black History Month angered some parents and students.

Students at Carondelet High School for Girls in Concord wanted to come up with ways to observe the occasion during a lunchtime celebration Friday. But when the school announced a menu of fried chicken, cornbread and watermelon, other students and parents became offended. (more…)

Janet Mock was born with a penis and testes but demands any historical reference to her personage must never be referenced as “a boy” or “male”.   Her primary claim is that she has been a woman since birth and she just corrected the anatomical error, via organ removal/reassignment, at a later date.    She wrote a book.   Apparently, as Piers Morgan was rue to find out, you can never say a transgendered person’s gender was their former anatomical definition.

*Note to self* —>  According to the community, which constructs the rule book we are now demanded to follow, “Sex” is what your birth anatomy assigns you to be.   “Gender” is actually what your real sexual identity is.   If you conflate the terminology you have mortally wounded a transgendered person.   *w-h-a-t-e-v-e-r* 

(Via Mediaite) Last night, Piers Morgan spoke to transgender advocate Janet Mock and some of the words he used and chyrons the show used ended up earning Morgan quite the social media blowback, and Morgan took some serious umbrage at all the people tweeting at him about the segment. He brought on Mock tonight to confront her about the “hostile tweets” she and others sent his way.

Morgan repeatedly bemoaned how much he’s been attacked, saying he “spent an infuriating 24 hours,” he was “viciously abused,” cried “I’m being vilified!”, and asked why someone like him, who openly supports LGBT rights and equality, has gotten such “a load of abuse.” (more…)

NO, actually having a Supreme Court Justice who cannot apply the term “illegal” to unlawful criminal behavior is what I would consider insulting.

Remember, this is one of the Supreme Court Justices. 

As in – a co-equal branch of government whose very charter is “interpreting” laws, and legal definitions therein.   Legal definitions are then used to frame judicial opinion toward the constitutional authority of the law to stand.  

In a very specific sense all the Supremes do is interpret law 24/7/365 and apply opinion toward definitions contained within the words.

CBS – […]   On the Supreme Court since 2009, Sotomayor said it was tough at first as justices made references that went over her head. She said joining the high court amounted to joining an ongoing conversation among justices who had served for years.

“I figure I may not be the smartest judge on the court but I’m going to be a competent justice,” she said. “I’m going to try to be the best I can and each year I think my opinions have been getting better. And I’m working at finding my voice a little bit.”

Sotomayor was asked at a talk at Yale Law School later in the day about her use of the term “undocumented immigrants” rather than the traditional illegal alien. Sotomayor characterized the issue as a regulatory problem and said labeling immigrants criminals seemed insulting to her. (more…)

There is not an organism alive on the planet which, given all possible conveniences, will not consume every single resource immediately in front of it.  Period.

Put a bacteria into a petri dish of broth and the bacteria will continue to grow until every ounce of energetic expansion resource (broth) is consumed.

Put an endless bowl of consistently good tasting food/treats on the floor and every cat and/or dog in your home will grow fat.

Put an endless supply of continually fresh and great tasting food in front of a person and they will grow fat.

It is the inherent state of unbridled biology, within every single organism, that all resources will be consumed unless they have cognitive and spiritual connection to virtue. (more…)

ALABAMA – (wkrg)  […]   Victim Mr. Carroll Jordan – A generous man to everyone who knew him—even lending his car to those who needed it.

“Tried to be a good neighbor.”

But that kindness was struck down when two men and a woman walked through his open front door, pulled him from his favorite chair, beat and stabbed him several times. One of those men was 18-year-old Robert Campbell who was arrested this morning after being found at a relative’s house. Jordan’s neighbor actually interrupted the crime.
