I dont want to be no racist....

I am upset. I am upset because I have been deceived into believing that we had come sooooo far; that this nation was well on its way to beginning to begin to grow just a little bit on this long journey to stop seeing color.... Then I saw this BS that got me HOTTT. The very first comment blew my mind. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. And then the sad part is the comments didn't get better. They got worse. More and more co-signing of the most idiotic and inconsiderate thought process I have seen in quite a while. I really wanted to leave this topic alone. I really did. I wanted to let go of the whole "We need an apology for slavery" topic, but I can't. And now I want an apology. Yes. I. do. I want one now just because they dont want to give it to us. It just burns me up on the inside that they wont even give us the common courtesy of saying "Im sorry". You know what I think about that and all of those racist who co-sign their behavior?!? I say... I can't say what I think because I just might lose my job for being racist.... And I am not a racist... I'm smarter than that....

I can't even write anymore. Its disgusting. Read the comments for yourself. You'll understand... If you aint no racist.....

Maybe Im Selfish.... and wrong.... but....

Yeah. So maybe Im feelin real "Pro-Black" right now or something but I saw somethin that got me heated all over again about that whole "Sorry, no apology for slavery but we will propose a Confederates month" thing. It was an article in the AJC that was talkin about how survivors of the Holocaust were to split 300 million dollars. Now that aint no money to be split between approximately 48,000 people BUT they are getting something... And we cant even get an apology.... I know. I know. What would you give all these black people who helped build the nation? How could you possibly begin to repay for the years of free labor that laid the foundation for many of the initial states? I would suggest starting very modestly with half. Yes... half of everything would be a great way to start. I know Im being generous but like I said, that would be a good starting point to grow from. But we have to atleast get half. Do you know why? Because this, in reality, is a nasty divorce and black america is the man who done worked to establish this family and now is being forced to pay child support, give up the house, the car and the kids and then, on top of all that, pay alimony. This is us. Cant get respect for the past and forced to survive with a semi-aborted and programmed future where more than half is already gone to our wife (read: everybody but us) because we got married to someone who never loved us anyway. So now most of us are tryin to keep our self esteem up in order to get a job and retire at 65. And by getting a job I mean working twice as hard to get half as much. Yes... The analogy is a stretch, but I dont know but a few black people who came up off of an inheritance - and I cant even name them right now... Maybe Im trippin though...

Colored People Coalition

A few weeks ago I clowned the NAACP. I clowned them, not only for calling themselves "Colored People", (like they couldnt have found a better name) but for begging for an apology from the state Georgia for its participation in slavery. I said "Dont they have anything else better to do than to beg somebody for a public apology for something they are probably secretly proud of? Why dont they take on a more serious issue, like fighting the mentalities that cause black people to live up to the negative stereotypes that are placed on blacks? What good would an insincere apology do?" But sadly I was wrong. They need to keep working on silly stuff like this because we really aint come that far as a nation. Explain to me why a bill to have a Confederate History Month "sailed through a Senate committee ...without any opposition." Now here's a quote from the AJC about the apology that NAACP asked for: "I take the same approach to this that I have to all [requests for] apologies. I am not certain government ought to be apologizing," House Speaker Glenn Richardson (R-Hiram) said. "Nobody here was in office" So let me get this straight... They dont think its important to apologize for it, but its ok to celebrate the people who facilitated the behavior?!? This, in my opinion, would set us back as a nation hundreds of years if it were to come to pass. They may as well start another campaign for a national holiday celebrating the institution of slavery. After all, the country did grow substantially off of their free labor.....
