Katrisha shares a valued comment:

It is difficult to feel welcome here as a black woman when blanket statements are tossed at will.
Many of “us” agree with much of what “you” say, but when blanket statements about our race are thrown, a) one automatically weakens their argument and b) it makes “us” who tend to agree, cringe or shy away.  (shrugs)

There is a bigger “there” within that comment, which deserves expansion – and perhaps a greater understanding.

In the field of ideas, conservative patriots can dress down the racists with quick dispatch.  Why?  Because the conservatives view people as individuals and not attached to collectives.   However, yes here comes the “but”,…. when the individual does not draw down their own collective – the battle of ideas is necessarily broad-stroked.
Here’s what I mean using examples. (more…)

Smart move by Ben Kruidbos and his attorney Wes White.   It was Rick Scott’s appointment of Special Prosecutor Angela Corey that started the fiasco in the first place.  Kruidbos/White now reach out to Scott for relief based on consequences of that appointment:

(Via Gateway Pundit) Gowdy told Greta the Obama Administration is hiding the survivors, dispersing them around the country, AND changing their names.
The YouTube ID of AX5WwWSuL3k?feature=player_embedded is invalid.

“Including changing names, creating aliases. Stop and think what things are most calculated to get at the truth? Talk to people with first-hand knowledge. What creates the appearance and perhaps the reality of a cover-up? Not letting us talk with people who have the most amount of information, dispersing them around the country and changing their names.”

The complaint was filed today in Duval County:

(Miami Herald – Written by Jay Weaver)  The parents of Trayvon Martin and their lawyer met with Justice Department prosecutors and FBI agents at the U.S. attorney’s office in Miami Wednesday to discuss the status of a criminal civil-rights investigation into the fatal shooting of their teen-age son last year.
The federal investigation, which was opened while George Zimmerman faced prosecution for the death of the 17-year-old, gained renewed interest last month after Zimmerman was acquitted in state court of Martin’s killing in a Sanford gated community.
Prosecutors with the Justice Department’s criminal civil-rights section and FBI agents from Central Florida met with the late teen’s parents, Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin, and their attorney, Benjamin Crump, to bring the family up to speed, according to sources familiar with the meeting.

(Via NewsBusters) It seems that when there’s a good liberal narrative to be advanced, facts and  actual history don’t matter.
That was apparently the case when Oprah Winfrey claimed that the “n-word” was  the last thing heard by “millions” who were lynched. The implication is clear —  millions of blacks have been lynched because of their race.  Worse yet, Parade Magazine let Winfrey get away with her “fact”  unchallenged.
Winfrey  made her comments in an interview discussing Lee Daniels’ “The Butler,” a movie  that chronicles one black man’s years of service in the White House. Winfrey  plays the role of Gloria Gaines, the wife of Cecil Gaines, who served from  Eisenhower through Reagan. (more…)

No, we will not be writing discussion threads around the latest George Zimmerman sighting in Missouri and North Dakota.  Think about it.
Instead focus on the bigger picture.   Yesterday President Obama met with Eric Holder and Al Sharpton in the White House.

Gee, do you wonder why?  

Do you wonder why the Urban League summit in Philadelphia was filled with talk of eliminating punishment for school behavior, or criminal behavior, or violent behavior?
Did you wonder why, last year in July/August 2012 President Obama signed an executive order to assist “Blacks Only” in getting rid of school punishments, suspensions, et al.

Do you wonder why criminal background checks for employment are now considered racist?   ….And the EEO labor department is facilitating changes to EEO regulations?
Do you wonder why Tom Perez, former DOJ-CRS, Community Relations Service, (Black rights only) head is now in the president’s cabinet as Labor Secretary?
Do you wonder why black former CRS head Ondray Harris quit working for the Administration in DC after he was told to specifically punish white people, and to only hire black people.
Do you wonder why the Obama/DOJ planted, and yes they are planted, left-wing student Marxists are making noise in Tallahassee Florida to get rid of self-defense laws like Stand Your Ground?
Do you wonder why?
Really?

(Via Peoples Cube)   The Department of Social Justice is contemplating several charges against the racist George Zimmerman for his cold-blooded murder of the post-infant and minority representative Trayvon Martin.Evidence compiled by the Federal Bureau of Investigation of Citizens has found Zimmerman to be guilty of at least several major civil rights-related crimes.
Having found no sign of racism in Zimmerman’s background, prosecutors plan to file charges of Involuntary Racism in the Commission of a Hate Crime, punishable by up to 20 years of labor in a correctional facility. Party officials believe this is the most appropriate charge based on the FBIC’s report. (more…)

HatTip WeaselZippers – WASHINGTON DC – In recent weeks, members of the House and Senate and their staffers have held two classified hearings on the Sept. 11, 2012 terrorist attacks on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya; conducted more than 25 hours of formal, transcribed interviews with witnesses; and spoken informally with several dozen additional witnesses, including some who are being called “whistleblowers.”
Among those who have recently spoken to Congress is Marine Corps Col. George Bristol who was in the U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) chain of command on Sept. 11. Earlier this month, CBS News reported that the Pentagon declined Republican congressional requests to produce Bristol for interviews. At the time, the Pentagon said Bristol had retired and that they “cannot compel retired members to testify before Congress.”

Man-o-man, Morgan is really trying his level best to instigate this poor Hanson fellow.  Big pat on the back to Mr. Hanson who retains a laser-like focus on reality and refuses to wander off into Crazyville with Piers Morgan.    Sheeesh….
