MSNBC’s Melissa Harris-Perry passionately asks:  “What is riskier than living poor in America? Seriously! What in the world is riskier than being a poor person in America? I live in a neighborhood where people are shot on my street corner. I live in a neighborhood where people have to figure out how to get their kid into school because maybe it will be a good school and maybe it won’t”….

Do you really want to know what’s riskier? Really? Well, you better be well prepared to confront your own ideological race-based paradigms, because I will tell you straight up. (more…)

The prog’s entire life is a series of hypocritical avoidances and pretzel twisting illogical positions.    So this example is not a surprising contrast (but it is good):

Responsibility?   Heck who is the party of anti-independence?   (Via Wolfiles) Mayor Mia Love is running for the House of Representatives in Utah and, if elected, will be the first black female Republican member of Congress. (more…)

In Franklin Indiana, parents must pay for their children to be provided with transportation to school.   One woman campaigned to get the fees removed for lower income students and for subsidies to offset the cost (taxpayers to foot the bill).

In essence, she wanted to help poor children whose parents wouldn’t pay for them to ride the bus.   Consequently the majority of those helped by her action and advocacy, for free bus transportation, were black students.

On the first day of the school year, at the first opportunity for those assisted students to ride the bus free of charge,  her own 14 year own son was brutally beaten on the school bus by one of the black students benefitting from her efforts.

After crawling up, down, and inside out of everything associated with Sheriff Joe for more than three years, the feds did not find squat…. it was a pure political witch hunt.  In a typical Obama/Holder DOJ manuever the Feds announce the non-finding and dropping of their investigation at 5pm on Friday night of a holiday weekend.   Jerks.

PHOENIX — Federal authorities said Friday that they’re closing their abuse-of-power investigation into Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio in Arizona without filing charges against him.

Authorities were investigating America’s self-proclaimed toughest sheriff for his part in failed public corruption cases against officials who were odds with him. Arpaio brought cases against a judge and two county officials in 2009.

Federal authorities also decided to not prosecute matters tied to alleged misuse of county credit cards by sheriff’s officials, alleged misspending of jail-enhancement funds and other matters. (more…)

“The Introduction”

On the night of February 26th, 2012, the life of George Zimmerman was changed forever.

Since that date he has been saddled not only with the anguish of having to take a life to save his own, but he has needed to endure the obligatory state-sponsored witch hunt to boot.

These are the burdens that few ordinary humans will ever have to bear. In times like these it’s always better to surround yourself with people who you TRUST.

Inevitably, in this day of GREED and SELFISHness, there are many people who use situations like this as a platform to further their own agenda. George Zimmerman has seen this GREED manifest itself in many forms from those he considers his best confidants. (more…)

Must watch video.   The only question the videographer missed was asking the Obamabot to define “Rich” and what standard should be applied for progressive considerations.

This is what Obama’s Chicago HQ Looks Like in 2012

(Via NewsBusters)  During live coverage of the Republican National Convention here in Tampa, Yahoo News Washington bureau chief David  Chalian provided the perfect example of the pervasive anti-Republican bias  Mitt Romney faces in his bid to unseat President Barack Obama.

In video broadcast Monday night by ABC and Yahoo over the Internet, David Chalian  can be heard claiming that GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney and his wife  Ann are unconcerned about the fate of residents of the New Orleans area who are  currently being hit by Hurricane Isaac.

“They aren’t concerned at all, they are happy to  have a party when black people drown.”

That line elicits laughter from several employees listening in on the  joke.

(Via Colin Flaherty) After looking at hundreds of cases of black mob violence in more than 70 cities all over the country in the last three years, I have found that racial violence is far more widespread than I had ever imagined.

As is the denial of it.

But you do have to know how to find it.

So let’s look at one case [of unreported black mob violence]: How the press ignored it; how the police denied it; and how we figured out what really happened on Aug. 5 when 800 people were fighting, firing guns, destroying property and “confronting” Delaware State Police at 2 a.m.  […] (more…)

This is good, very good.   Chris Matthews doubles down on his narrative and in so doing he exposes the truth of the prog lies.   Progs ARE the REAL RACISTS.

Chris Matthews defines the term “Food Stamp” recipient by race.

Chris Matthews defines the term “Welfare Queen” by race.

Chris Matthews is the one defining by race, not conservatives, not Republicans and certainly not Mitt Romney or Paul Ryan.

This is the entrenched ideology of the progs.

The progs are the Pure Racists.   Non-progs, or patriots, define issues by behavior or policy outcomes.   Progs define issues by skin color.

This is exactly what we need to see the Chris Matthews types continue to do and this narrative is exactly what we need to be skillful at deconstructing.

(Via SBPDL)  The Warriors is movie in dire need of a re-make. Made in 1979, the movie is a tale of rival gangs in New York City and, well, isn’t a good movie.

Based on a book by Sol Yurick, the director and casting agents of The Warriors was forced to add white characters to the eponymous gang because Paramount (which would be distributing the film) didn’t think an all-Black cast would have any “commercial appeal.”
Yurick’s book doesn’t have a white character, and the re-make of The Warriors should try and be as true to the source material as possible.

With one exception: move the location of the gang-war to Chicago, a city already besieged by the type of violence Yurick wrote about. More to the point, the participants are already the correct racial hue.

The violence in Chicago has been documented here – and here, here, and here – on many occasions (and at VDare), but the night of August 23 and the morning of August 24 broke new ground. (more…)
