Time For The Slavery Mongers to Go Away

Whenever there is any controversial issue taking place in our country there are two things you can count on: Someone will invoke the name of Adolph Hitler, Nazi Germany or Slavery. During the Cleveland Cavaliers controversy, Spike Lee stated that Cavs Owner Dan Gilbert was treating Lebron like a "runway slave". Just this week, Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson compared the current NFL labor strife to "modern day slavery". Just when you thought there was just one bonehead slavery comment this week, Steelers running back Rashard Mendenhall came up with this gem: "Adrian Peterson was correct in his analogy of this game...anyone with knowledge of the slave trade and the NFL could say that these two parallel one another". I'm sure that getting hit in the heard causes some damage so let's first give these dunderheads a definition of slave. Slavery is involuntary servitude and/or unpaid labor. Slaves have no choice or control over their lives or destiny-they are the property of someone else. They can be bought and sold to the highest bidder. They get no pay, medical benefits, retirement, disability or 401K. Comparing pampered millionaire athletes to a people who suffered some of the most egregious and inhuman treatment one can imagine is beyond an insult. It clearly shows the sever lack of perspective many have today-not to mention their astonishing ignorance of history. If the NFL is modern day slavery, does that make Michael Vick Dread Scott? I wish that slaves had it so good. Maybe my great great grand father Romulous and his brother Remus could have been signed to a multi million dollar cotton picking contract-with an opt out clause after two generations. After retirement they could have sat back in their 6 bedroom farmhouse and collected a few thousand bucks a month or took a job in the front office of the plantation recruiting other slaves. Perhaps they could have even been allowed to buy their own plantation. For once I wish there was someone who would verbally slap these guys in their place whenever such moronic comments are made. The real tragedy is that there are adults who reach this level in America and never learn along the way what real life is like. Many of these prima donna's have never had the benefit of punching a time clock or even working behind a counter asking "do you want fries with that"? They have never waited a table or stocked a shelf. However, now that the NFL lockout is in full swing, many of them may now get that chance.

The Legend Of The Unarmed White Man (Revised)

Image
The August 2014 shooting death of unarmed black teen Mike Brown in St. Louis by a white police officer and the subsequent decision by the grand jury not to indict has brought unrest to American Streets. The protestors feel that police are shooting and killing mostly unarmed black men at alarming rates. Many also believe that police interaction amongst white's is all together different due to the benefits of "white privilege". "If that had of been a white man..." is a common refrain from blacks when speaking of a negative experience with a white police officer. The media plays an integral role in these perceptions by continuously assaulting us with images of black victims and white perpetrators. In light of the Brown incident and other controversial shootings this year, the adjective attached to these perceived victims is "unarmed". The term is a staple in the lexicon of the American media which h...

BP Crisis Brings Out Radical Left

Image
Once again the left, with the help of Jesse Jackson shows its ignorance of and hatred for capitalism. The BP crisis which began with the explosion of an offshore oil rig which resulted in a fire that killed 19 people. The pipe located one mile undersea began to spew oil into the gulf and has for over fifty days now. The Reverend has been for weeks calling for a boycott of BP. Now comes word that several BP stations have been vandalized. The fact that such vitriol and anger results from what was clearly a tragic accident is surely tragic in itself. Someone should explain to the reverend that oil companies exited the gas station business years ago. The stations are by and large owned by franchisees and independent operators who squeeze out razor thin margins on gasoline-hence the reason for the lottery tickets, potato chips and soft drinks that has become a staple of these often family owned businesses. To make matters worse, the Rev. Jackson stated that "the mom and pop stations a...

Blacks Only Field Trip Revealing

A Michigan elementary school Principal took group of 5th grade students on a field trip to hear a speech by an African American rocket scientist. The only problem: he only took the black students. This incident for this blogger has much larger revelations other than the obvious. This Principal is the prototypical example of the dangers of a left wing education. A huge problem among blacks specifically is their ability to practice discrimination and segregation while simultaneously preaching "equality" and "inclusion". Dicken Elementary School Mike Madison took a group on black students, part of a group known as the African American Lunch Bunch to hear a black rocket scientist speak. The fact that there is such a group at a such a racially diverse school is troubling. Needless to say, the outrage would be manic if a white organization existed and engaged in the same exclusion of black students. In the black left wing mind, discrimination and racism are acceptable ...
