That Police Pattern, Freedom of Speech, and Race Baiting

Apparently Douglasville Georgia's citizens are out of control. The Confederate Flag wavers have gone full retard again. They showed up armed to a Black child's birthday party and taunted his family by saying they were going to "Kill y'all niggers".  

I'd like to bring something to your attention. I knew about this, I saw the pattern, and I'm not really surprised about how this went down.

Notice how the police were busy telling the Black people to calm down when they should have been arresting the people in the vehicles? This is the pattern I've seen whenever these flag wavers pop up. The police are always protecting their "right to free speech", but are there to make sure the Blacks behave. I saw it in South Carolina, I saw it in Dawson Georgia (where the police blocked off the road so the flag wavers could roll through with their vehicles), or well anywhere a large number of Black people are, and here it is at a Black child's birthday party. 

And for those who say that we race bait, I'd like to tell them the following:

Just seeing the word, "Black" or seeing a picture of a Black person attached to an article is just enough for those who cry "race baiters" to get their underwear in a knot. They are the most butt hurt and easily offended group of people one would ever come across.

The truth is that they have a problem with Black people. They have to insert themselves into anything related to us even when it's online. They can't help but try to oversee what we're doing, they don't want us to assemble, they don't like it when 'too many' of us are together, they don't like the fact we want to do better for ourselves without their help. Whenever we try, they say things like "Where's our White Television channel?" or "If we did that we'd be racist." They spend such an enormous time worrying about what Black people are doing. In fact, terrorizing a Black child's birthday party is proof of the fact they're so worried about what we are doing that they are not above being petty and proud of it. They just haaad to ruin that kid's party as if they were twelve year olds with nothing better to do but to harass the little kids (because that's how they see Black people. AS. LITTLE. KIDS.)

The question I'd like to ask is, If they hate us so much, why do they keep inserting themselves into everything we do? From Rachael Dolezal and her failed transracial movement, to the random online troll comments, to the White person who wants to debate who and who can't say the N word, to the White rapper, to the guys at the child's party? They get off on being overseers and having the ability to police everything and anything we do, and it's just gross. Straight up and plain gross. 

So. I suppose this is the part where a person would say something like "If you don't like it, then go back to Africa". I'd say the following: Buy us all a plane ticket and please make sure the United States gives back all of the diamonds, the money from oil, the gold, the platinum , the palladium,etc. And they should come get all of their e-waste they dropped off in Ghana, and stop sending Monsanto's seeds over there. They should undo all damage done to the African continent since they feel so compelled to even think they have the audacity and the power to tell someone that in the first place. They should get all the way off of the high horse they created themselves, since they probably want to call me uppity for even "going there" in the first place. As well as give monetary compensation for attempts to hijack everything we do, and use it for themselves. Oh, wait.

And they STILL want to say Black people are race baiters.

I tell them GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE AND SIT YOUR DELUDED ASS ALL THE WAY DOWN.

I Don't Understand Why (insert racist thing) is Racist, Why don't You Clue Me In? < Are you for real?

 0_____O < Insert giant side eye here.  Here's why:

Every so often, a White person will ask this question in some way shape or form, and they never cease to amaze me. I decided I'd write a default response:

I think it's crazy for Black people to have to be their teachers on this subject. Why do we need to teach grown ass adults about how to act around different people and races? This is something they should be conscious of. They are the ones who spread the idea that America is a melting pot and that we should all get along. It is up to them to act like they have some sense, and learn on their own. They can google everything under the sun, so why is it that when something racist pops up they want to ask us what the problem is? Did their google ninja skills all of a sudden fail to function? Are their fingers broke? I think not. They need to be accountable for their actions, and stop using other races as a scapegoat for their fuck ups (for lack of a better phrase). That means no more saying things like, "But my Black friend said..." or" I'm 1/16th Cherokee" or "Why do Black people get to ..." and so on and so forth. Stop the foolishness and be accountable for their actions and stay out of Black folks's business (I'm looking at those who always want to say, "But black on black crime....but statistics, but numbers..." and other various talking points and confirmation bias based data, they may want to present to state their so called case. And stop with that oh so convenient, "But we're all American" mess, when they sit up there and want to talk about "Black on Black crime, but never refer to crime committed by Whites as "White on White crime" because then and only then crime is treated as a default or American problem", and crime by Blacks is some mystical phenomenon that must be shamed ,scrutinized, and looked at with disdain. Stop following up with paternalistic tripe whenever pretending to open up dialogue pertaining to Black issues. Long story short, we are not their teachers, and we can't expect them to learn anything about us and how things are when they can't even begin to accept the what when where why and how things got to be the way they are. They better read some books, use their google fu and do real research instead of coming up with voyeuristic things to stroke their own ego and confirm their biases and for gods sake take responsibility instead of blaming everybody else and telling them stuff like "get over it" or "everyone doesn't have the same opinion as you" after they don't like what is said when their questions are answered.

Usually, the response goes:  That's bullshit and you know it. You're racist and you people are impossible. You should be thankful you're brought into this country. It's the best country for your people, and if you don't like it, you should go back to Africa. I'm sure they'd take you.

Really?  Really. Are you sure you want to take the argument there? Naw, I take that back. I read this article that eloquently explains what White America has been feeling as of late. The title leaves much to be desired, but they wrote nothing but truth. For those who don't really like to read and want the TL;DR version of the article in question, I'd like to say : GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE WITH THAT!  Reading is something that is required  when a person has a computer or tries to communicate by using one. People have time to look up things like "What Does The Fox Say?", and shit like this  but don't have time to find out the answers to their questions?!  That's very telling indeed.  If one is actually willing to seek that knowledge, they will do what it takes to learn it, but I'll go ahead and humor folks and post the short version:

Long story short,  they refuse to recognize the accountability of their great grandparents for losing the farms, or making it so minorities would end up taking their jobs, I mean, that's what they voted for, and because of the treatment of Blacks by their ancestors for so long, the so called minority would probably be of no threat to them because they would be doing their own thing away from Whites. But no, they had to keep those Blacks under their thumb by any means necessary, and now things are the way they are because of that. I'm going to say that maybe they should have educated themselves and voted accordingly instead of voting based on party. Maybe they should have read their contracts carefully before signing up for those loans. Maybe they should have worked harder to pay them off. No one told them to take the shortcut and sell their land to pay off the debt. It's called fiscal responsibility and accountability folks! The rest of us are fiscally responsible and are accountable for what we spend and what we do, so why do they think they can get a pass? Plus the media who happens to be controlled by people like them were also telling everybody that having 2.5 kids was the "ideal' for the American family while others were making babies. This unsolicited advice was given for a very long time, I might add, so it isn't our fault that they blindly followed it. Now they are in the minority, so what do they think would happen next over a couple of years? They can't blame other minorities for their loss in income. They need to take a good hard look in the mirror, and look at what their actions have caused them over the years. 

That being said, They ought to face it, America is the country where they can exercise their freedoms more than every other country and they pay the least amount of taxes when compared to those in the European union. And since the Native Americans were there first in the US, newsflash, Whites don't own it, as much as they want to think they do and cry about what they see themselves entitled to.  If they don't like it they can leave or just shut up and deal with it. /s

What? they mad? To be continued...

My Brief Take On The Government Shutdown << I Know, I'm Late

Originally, I wasn't going to write anything about the United States government shutdown because these days, I have no sympathy for the people running the country, nor do I have any for a lot of people in it. Then I realized that I was just being angry and selfish to an extent, so I decided I'd say a little something.

For starters, when I first heard about the shut down, all I could say is, " I bet they'll keep the departments responsible for policing us up and running smoothly. I can also guarantee that Congress, The House and Senate (basically all of those in the DC district deemed "important enough" will be getting paid as well, and if this does affect anybody, it'll be on the so called, 'lowest rungs' of the ladder.) I was correct there. However it is starting to affect anybody who needs to fill out a government application to get approved for, SSI, FHA Loans, Visa, Passports, Gun permits, etc, which was honestly something I expected. However, I didn't expect all of this to happen because Congress didn't like what Obamacare had to offer. At first I thought it was just old news and talk because they have been fighting the Affordable Healthcare Act since day one. But that's not all, they decided to throw a temper tantrum and rage quit their job. Now I don't know about you but I'd get fired if I walked out on my job. Why do they still get paid? But then again, why would I expect them to not get paid. They are not us, nor have they ever been. All in all, it looks just like some spoiled kid in the supermarket who got mad because they didn't get what they wanted. Obama negotiated and negotiated with them and they still wouldn't budge, much like the suburban mother does when pleading with her child to behave. Thanks to these guys, kids will be denied the chance to be a part of the Head Start Program, Mothers with children will not be receiving vouchers via the WIC program, all national parks and monuments will be closed to the public and those who worked at those establishments will be furloughed until further notice. Death and burial befits for the families of deceased veterans have been denied. I'm sure libraries will be affected by this as well, meaning, not only will libraries be closed, but those who manage the libraries will be out of the job. The real questions I want to ask are, why doesn't Obama stop babying these people, get hood on em and beat some ass so he could at least do his job? How long will this mess last? As far as I know, the longest government shutdown ran for 21 days during 1995. At the time, I was a jobless teenager, so I don't know if it affected anybody or not. This time will be different since I'm an adult. All I can say is we'll see what happens next. Hopefully, something could get done before too long, as long as the decision doesn't hurt the citizens too much.
