Let me start with some current observations after I started writing this some 24 hours ago. Unfortunately, what I predicted would happen happened, and it shouldn’t surprise anybody.
The Liberal Left, Hillary, and the Agenda Journalists, while the Las Vegas police are still trying to get a body count, are again using another tragedy to advance their ‘Never Trump,’ anti-‘America First’ narrative to divide and deceive the American people! They also added ‘Country Western’ fans to Hillary’s oversized ‘Basket of Deplorables!’ …….and the beat goes on, and on, and on!!
24 Hours ago….
The Vegas’s massacre is just another ‘political correct’ symptom that’s still left over from the Obama Administration hangover, and the wake-up call to all America about the violent undertow of the ‘Deep State’ that is still trying to suck our Constitutional Republic under the waves of Socialist dependency as it rearranges the look of America’s shores!
I’m starting this article as I continue to watch the ‘Las Vegas Massacre’ facts emerge. The number started at 20+ killed with over 100 injured, and now after the first briefing now 50+ killed with over 200 injured. We have the weekend murders in Chicago being ignored by the Press, we continue to have Sanctuary Cities harboring and protecting unvetted illegal immigrants and refugees. We have the first unconstitutional DACA children being MS-13 gang members being placed in cities by the Obama Administration to help organize Obama’s ‘Deep States’ agenda!
The Progressive left continues to fiddle while America burns, and continues to do nothing to right the wrongs of Obama’s past 8 years of political correctness, division and deception, and doing it with the help of the RINO’s on the Right, the Progressives on the Left, and the ‘Paid to Report’ Media having their backs and protecting them from the truth being exposed!
We all know what’s coming next, and after the Vegas violence took over the front and center story, and the air being let out of the feckless accusations against FEMA’s reaction time to the 3 hurricanes that damaged Texas, Florida, and Puerto Rico, and then being proven wrong by the discrediting of those accusations by every Governor of those 3 states who have praised President Trump’s handling of the 3 different situations. You had to know that ‘GUN CONTROL’ would be the ‘New’ front and center distraction by the Liberal left to ‘hide behind’ to cover up their non-existing foreign, domestic, and economic policies, the fixes for the unconstitutional Executive Order for the DACA children that President Trump the ‘Swamp’ six months to correct and come up with a remedy, and that’s because the Constitution says the President doesn’t make law, because that’s Congress’s job!
Stalling seems to be the new Liberal game in town to stifle the ‘make America great again’ promise made by this unwanted outside and non-politician President, who by the way is showing the ‘Swamp’ up, and running circles around the procedures and protocols that have earned the ‘Swamp’ that wonderful 12.8% approval rating by the American people.
6 hours later, and now I see this…..
As the country awoke in horror on Monday to discover what happened last night in Las Vegas, Hillary Clinton wasted no time in tweeting an exceptionally hot take on the entire incident. The country needs to stand up to the National Rifle Association, of course!
We only can depend on ourselves for the continuation of our Founding Father’s ‘Constitutional Republic,’ and that’s because it’s become apparent that the 535 elected members of Congress, who we’ve elected to follow and enforce our mandate, seems to have forgotten their oath of office, and according to them, don’t believe we know what’s best for ourselves, or in our best self interest.
The ‘Left’ or the mainstream media won’t talk about the 533 that have lost their lives in Chicago, they won’t talk about the soaring number of people in poverty and unemployed in all of these cities under Democratic leadership, and they still keep blaming Trump for anything and everything!
Liberal Lies, Blacks, Crime, and the Bended Knee
Whites comprise about 75 percent of America’s population and they have had just about enough of the offensive accusations, protests, and moral outrage directed at them. Yes, blacks were brought here centuries ago as slaves, but America did not originate slavery nor do we still practice slavery, as do parts of Africa and Muslim nations today. In fact, America fought a civil war to end slavery. It’s been over 150 years since the Emancipation Proclamation, thus, the fate of today’s blacks rests not upon yesterday’s slaveholders, but upon today’s failed black leadership who have intentionally kept America’s blacks on an imaginary plantation through the indoctrination of victimhood. By instilling the notion that blacks today are the victims of white racism and “white privilege”, black leadership (Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Louis Farrakhan, and Maxine Waters, to name a few) have created not only an entitlement mentality, but a dependency and helplessness prevalent among young blacks in inner cities throughout the country.
It is not “whitey” who is committing 62 percent of robberies, 57 percent of murders, 45 percent of assaults in the 75 biggest counties throughout the United States. Despite comprising only about 15 percent of the population in those counties. 91 percent of blacks are murdered by other blacks. Blacks comprise 10 percent of the population, but commit 42 percent of the robberies and 34 percent of felonies. In a report from the Department of Justice, over a 30-year period between 1980 and 2008, blacks committed half of all homicides in the United States despite comprising only 13 percent of the population.
Furthermore, a 2007 FBI file reports there were 433,934 single-offender victimization crimes against whites by blacks compared to 55,685 crimes committed by whites against blacks — eight times as many more crimes committed against whites by blacks. Interracial rape is almost exclusively a black on white crime with 14,000 assaults on white woman but not one case of a white sexual assault on a black female. In her book The War on Cops: How the New Attack on Law and Order Makes Everyone Less Safe, Heather McDonald documents the inner city warfare committed by black males against other black males. In Chicago, 76 percent of all homicides are committed by blacks and 78 percent of all juvenile arrests involve blacks.
Black educational statistics are dismal when compared to whites. In a 2012-2013 report by the Schott Foundation titled “Black Lives Matter: The Schott 50 State Report on Public Education and Black Males” it was reported that only 59 percent of black males graduate from high school compared to 65 percent for Latinos and 80 percent for whites. In Detroit, a city governed by black leadership for decades, only 20 percent of black males graduate from high school. What an indictment and disgrace!
Nor are whites responsible for the huge increase in out-of-wedlock births. In 2013, 71 percent of black births were born to black unwed mothers.
These children were born into a life of poverty without the benefit of a father in the home. The norm for these kids is to drop out, use drugs, become unemployed, commit crimes, and become imprisoned at many more times the rate of whites, Asian, and Hispanics.
Yes, the black community has a problem, but it is of its own making, and too often whites are the victims of a dysfunctional black community. America has lavishly poured billions of taxpayer’s dollars in recent decades to improve public education, outreach, and equal opportunity programs such as Affirmative Action for blacks in inner cities, but to what avail? We have stepped aside and watched silently as city after city, once safe and prosperous, became Third World outposts after decades of corrupt black Democratic leadership. They enriched themselves with unkept promises while the rest of the population floundered.
For decades, beginning with the 60s, white guilt was kept alive by a civil rights revolution that swept the nation. Many blacks found success in the media, the press, education, sports, law enforcement, the halls of government, culminating in the election of the first black President, Barack Hussein Obama. Many whites, eager to assuage their guilt after many years of playing defense, voted not for the best man to fill the office, but for a symbol they hoped would end the racial conflict once and for all. Contrarily, the election of Obama only served to exacerbate tension between whites and blacks. Many blacks felt emboldened and protected in their demands and racist protests against police are now commonplace. Chants by Black Lives Matter “What do we want? Dead cops! When do we want it? Now!” were frequently heard at protests. The result is a war on cops with numerous officers killed in the line of duty in NYC, Dallas, Baton Rouge, San Antonio, and other cities throughout the land.
Black problems are self-created, and history has proven that no amount of money thrown at them will solve the problem. Scapegoating is getting tiresome and dangerous. Do not lecture us about social injustice and the debt owed to you. The only thing we owe you and what is owed to any of us is equal opportunity. We have more than given that to you. It is high time for the black community to look inwards, and when it does it will discover the problem is not a lack of opportunities, but a lack of values.
Education, self-reliance, delayed gratification, responsibility, hard work, ambition, and an intact family are values incorporated and ingrained within those who lead productive decent lives. It is lacking within a large segment of the black community. Shame on those who display ingratitude and dishonor America, a country that has given black athletes the opportunity to make millions playing a sport that young men in Africa can only dream about, a country that has given blacks liberty and opportunity. Shame on you and those who kneel with you.

When is enough. enough, and when do we get up off our asses and take our dignity and pride to make something of ourselves?
When do we start taking responsibility for our future and destiny through hard work and perseverance, and when do we recognize that our lives and the family ties that bind us to our past could and should only be determined by ourselves and the ones we love? I believe that people can be oppressed, but with all the options of Freedoms, Liberties, and rights that are granted to each and everyone of us living in America, and a Constitution that is geared up to protecting all of those things and more, I find that, especially in America, how ludicrous is it that these ‘poor me’ souls are being played and manipulated by the Liberals for the sake of getting their victimization card so that they can take advantage of the ‘Freebee’ entitlements and mandated careers that will keep you down on the farm and controllable!
Never before have so many Liberals claimed to be so oppressed, and mistreated over ‘so little,’ as Americans did in 2017.
We have men who have gotten extraordinarily wealthy and famous playing a game who protest the flag of the nation that put them not just in America’s wealthiest 1%, not just in the global 1%, but in the historical 1% of everyone who has ever lived.
We have pampered college students at expensive private schools having hissy fits because someone they disagree with is allowed to speak at an event on campus they’re not even required to attend.
We’re told Hispanic Americans are oppressed because foreign Latinos who came to this country illegally when they knew the penalty was deportation are not universally being allowed to get away with their crime.
We have feminists who think they’re oppressed because some guy “mansplained” something to them by finally giving his opinion after listening to them blather on for 10 minutes.
We have black Americans who live in bad neighborhoods, think the cops target them because of their race, can’t find a job and are mired in poverty who keep voting for exactly the same government officials to be in charge of their neighborhood. If they’re “oppressed,” they’re active participants in their own oppression.
Republicans were not oppressed because Obama was in office.
Democrats are not oppressed because Donald Trump is in office.
White supremacists aren’t oppressed because of Black Lives Matter.
Black Americans aren’t oppressed because of made-up claims that the police are gunning for them that aren’t supported by the data or because someone, somewhere said the n-word.
Women aren’t oppressed because of a non-existent patriarchy.
Men aren’t oppressed because of angry feminists.
Asians aren’t oppressed. Jews aren’t oppressed. Muslims aren’t oppressed. Conservatives aren’t oppressed. Liberals aren’t oppressed.
The only Americans that are actually discriminated against by the government these days are white Americans who are victimized by Affirmative Action.
Is that un-American and wrong? Absolutely, but even the relatively small number of people victimized by that policy are getting other jobs and going to other colleges if they’re hustling.
So, they’re not oppressed. This country has problems, issues and things to work on, but this is as good as it gets in the real world right now. That’s why few people leave this country and millions try to get in every year.
Do you realize the stunning level of self-absorption and self-deception that it takes to believe you’re oppressed in America?
Real oppression is women in Saudi Arabia getting to drive for the first time in 2017. Oppression is worrying that you may be jailed in China for speaking out against the government. Oppression is eating your dog in North Korea because the dictator running the country with an iron fist is just fine with you starving to death. Oppression is Christians across the Middle East being systematically murdered because of their religion while their Muslim rulers shrug their shoulders.
It’s also very interesting to take a look at the “leaders” who say you’re oppressed. For the most part, they are the least oppressed people on earth. Typically, they’re politicians, actors, actresses, rock stars or media personalities with lots of money and influence. The more they tell people that the problems in their life aren’t their fault, the more attention, retweets and money they get. Funny how that works.
You think black Americans are oppressed? Compared to what? America a hundred years ago? How about women? How about the poor? Many poor Americans have access to technological and medical advances the richest Americans a hundred years ago would have paid vast fortunes to acquire had it been possible. There are no “Irish Need Not Apply” signs anymore. Asians aren’t being worked to death on the railroads. Little kids aren’t being forced to drop out of school and head to the coal mines. Seventy one percent of the world’s population lives on less than $10 a day and you want to tell me how bad anyone in America has it? Please. Even the homeless panhandlers make more than that here.
There are no oppressed Americans, but there are an awful lot of Americans who are spoiled, bored, need attention or are just looking for any excuse for messing up their own lives.
FORTUNATELY, you don’t have the opportunity to be Rosa Parks, MLK or Susan B. Anthony in America because all those people have already done the heavy lifting for you. If you’re an American who wants to fight oppression, you may as well join the military and wait for the next fight against a dictator or terrorist organization overseas because there are no oppressed Americans. However, there are an awful lot of sad, weak people who claim the tiny molehills in front of them are mountains so they can feel better about themselves.
