Steve Shine and Random Acts of Racialist Action

I understand some folks had some problems understanding this post. So I am reposting:

Contagious shooting. Yep, they are trying to justify the latest shooting of an unarmed African-American male as police training, and not just straight out of control police officers. Contagious shooting, they are say is when one officer fires and the other officers starting shooting automatically.

Here's another one, a 14 year old boy is beaten to death, in a boot camp setting. A nurse was standing by during the beating. To justify the boy's death, it was a blood issue. Yeah, it was the blood of an African-American.


Here's another one. Raced white (jewish Republican leader) wife calls in report of domestic violence. If you are restrained from doing something, it's is physical. The police shows up but the report is not available and action delayed.

Here's another one, Ken Fries, the newly elected Allen County selected his new support team. Not one person who was not a female nor African-American in the bunch. So much for inclusion in 2006 under younger leadership.


What Michael Richards did reflects on the ordered steps of the majority of folks who are in charge of something. The majority don't give a hoot nanny about the life of an African-American. And if they (those in leadership position) are given unfettered discretion to circumvent the laws in discipline, moreso than not they are likely to deny African-Americans their civil rights under this type of power.

The good ole boys network has to surround themselves with the same mentality (folks with the same way of thinking), to continue the old traditions of Jim Crow. They don't want different they just want to pretend life is better in their world when they lie to each other. In this article, Steve Shine shines light on the false perceptive that the Republican Party are the standard bearer of truth, patriot saints and family values role models, when he states, "I want the public to know how challenging it can be for families: finances, children's problems, drugs," he said. "Family values are important but life isn't perfect. I have yet to find an Ozzie and Harriet. This is part of life." In other words for those who can't read between the lines, Republicans ain't all that and a bag of chips or the Republicans are just ordinary people or the Republicans do dumb stuff or the Republicans are not the next best thing to ice cream. Geez.


Conservative, family values, anti-same sex marriages..just code words for those folks who need to belong to some group. Or for group thinkers or for folks who need to belong to a party that had lots of Klu Klux Klan members who were evil hatemongers. Or are they still hatemongers? Do you think these folks have changed?

Katric Couric: What's a girl to do?

Ms. Couric duing her debut as a serious news anchor,came out in a white blazer. Image definitely aimed to the youngster that she maybe seasoned but she is hip. Because old school still believes in packing in anything white right after labor day. But the problem that I have with Ms. Couric is she wasn't hired to be a fashion trendsetter, but to deliver some hard hitting news.

So what did we get when she interviewed President George Bush, Jr.? Ms. Couric couldn't hold eye contact with the lying President! Can't you call the President a liar, without being sent to some type of secret prison? Ms. Couric was so barbie-ladylike in allowing the President to correct her, when she didn't quite get her facts straight.

Sorry, Ms. Couric, the President is not running for office, so nail him. Just picture him naked or that someone that lied and said you had a face lift or eyebrow lift. We are counting on you to call him on his own lies. We have been listening to what you had to say,Ms. Couric, much longer than the President. So don't let us down.

Is it the African-American Community or Democrat Party Leadership?

Found this on AdvanceIndiana. Gary Welsh, attempting to compare African-American oppressions with gay issues, you be the judge, favored as a little colorblind racism. Gary Welsh says:

"Spaulding is right to emphasize the role anti-gay bigotry in the Alabama's African-American community is playing in the Democratic Party's actions, and that this issue is being downplayed in the media coverage. You can bet that if a group of white Republicans had taken similar action against an African-American candidate, the news media would have played up the race issue big time."

"The question now is whether Alabama's state Democratic Party, with encouragement from the DNC, will step in and overrule the local party leader's actions. If they don't, then our U.S. Justice Department should do its job in enforcing the Voting Rights Act and overrule the local party's actions. Somebody needs to act quickly; otherewise, we're simply allowing a bunch of bigoted sore losers to make a mockery of the very laws which were created to ensure fair elections for minorities."

Cousin Jeff

Cousin Jeff, from BET is supporting Kenneth Blackwell. Blackwell, is an African-Americans running under the republican ticket. Cousin Jeff, raises an eyebrows in announcing his public support of Blackwell. As the Democrats and Republicans positions themselves to use high visible African-Americans to support their African-Americans candidates. Some are suggesting that even, Dr. Martin Luther, King, Jr. had to have been a Republican, coming from the south and being a Republican. Maybe, he came from a era that celebrated the Republicans for being a facilitator of the liberation of African-Americans. However, in King, Jr.s book, Why We Can't Wait, he suggest we embrace the idea of an independent party. Nevertheless, the question for many African-Americans voters is, will these candidates make a difference on policies impacting their communities.

I think not, I believe that the candidates who will make the different are those candidates at the local level. Those who are connected to the voters, at the grassroots levels, out there working in the community. Those candidates who have worked actively in knowing the voters needs in their community. These candidates can turn around the democratic or republican agenda at the grassroots level. However, as Dr. King, Jr. suggest an independent party will more than likely speed up this process. Lani Guiner, suggest that other join us in this process. If African-Americans could save the United States, surely we can save ourselves under an independent party.
