The dark side of black people
Jamaica Star (Jamaica), by Leighton Levy

"LET ME START by saying that if I had my life to live over a thousand times, the one thing I would not change would be my race. I am proud to be a black man. There are times however, when I wish that certain people and I did not share that trait. For the past few days, the whole world ... well, at least those who have access to satellite and cable television, ..... "

Men like this are the only thing that keep me from being a full blown racist. I think that perhaps, just perhaps, they are not all human cockroaches.

I am beginning to believe that black people, no matter where in the world they are, are cursed with a genetic predisposition to steal, murder, and create mayhem."

I disagree this is a racial thing.

Any group with a self-destructive welfare culture that accepts unacceptable levels of criminality and gov't malfeasance would behave in the same way.

That said, there were plenty of black people that acted with nobility and compassion towards others. But I'm not sure if that's interesting enough for the MSM.

But the author failed to mention the darkest side - people who are exonerating and minimizing those who did commit such despicable acts, in exchange for face time on TV. Jesse, Nagin, Sharpton, etc.

Excellent #9.

I agree.

It's a cultural thing.

Sounds to me like you already are. And, interestingly, so is the author.

#7... Sadly, I suffer your tendancy to assume the worst from the dark-skinned among us... Whenever a TV station swiches over to its traffic helicopter to track a chase, I automatically judge that the dirt-bag behind the wheel of the lead car is a minority (9 times out of 10, regretably, I'm correct).

Isn't it too bad that quiet, productive and contributing blacks (the vast majority of their population) get very little recognition while the likes of Jessie Jackson (father of child out of wedlock), Al Sharpton, the Black Caucus, et al get all the spot light?

Leighton will be receiving his Dear Uncle Tom letter from the NAACP, Congressional Black Caucus, Jesse Jackson and the rest of the house Negro race pimps on the democrat plantation.

I agree. People like Jesse and Sharpton cater to that feeling and are the truth racists. It's a paying proposition and they won't let up.

The majority of blacks in this mess are decent, hard working, gentle, honest people.
The ones that aren't have earned their shame.

So are there good black people and if so where are they?

Jamaican blacks have proven to be incredibly more successful when they come to the US than US blacks..or others. They have a work ethic. Maybe someone should take a look at how they're raised. Apparently not under the thumb of a bunch of do-gooder democrats.

I am a white american. I've always been skeptical of black people, since I was beat up as a kid by a gang of 6 black men, just because I was white. I always try and give them the benefit of the doubt. My daughter has two children from black men. One pays child support (he has to, he was in prison for 5 years, the government got him a job when he got out, and a home)(I should go to prison, as I am 62 years old and still live in an apartment)...the other father dresses like he has a million dollars (Nikes, doo-rags, fhat farm) but he has never payed child support. He is 30 years old and has never worked at a meaningful job. Every job he has had, he gets "injured" and lives on workmens compensation, and gets awards. I donated money the the red cross during this time of need, not even considering race as a factor. All I knew is there were AMERICANS in trouble and I wanted to help. God has blessed me and I wanted to pass on the blessings.

Jamican blacks are wonderful HARD WORKING people who are embarrassed by these black Americans. I have worked with many Jamaicans over the years-this is an age old complaint and rightfully so.

Wasn't it wonderful to see the black adults in the Superdome band together, take charge and set up their own security details?
And don't forget how they worked together to organize groups to keep their area as clean as possible, to pick up trash, and especially to care for and protect the weak, the young and the elderly?

And then to see the healthy, able-bodied men in the streets organizing rescue parties to save those who could not help themselves and to set up neighborhood security to protect their neighbors and their property from looters, robbers, rapists and murderers.

It made one feel good just to know these people are our fellow Americans.

What?

What's that you say?

They what?

They didn't do all of that?

The young healthy, able-bodied men WERE the ones doing the looting, robbing, raping and musrdering?

Ooops!! Sorry.....

For those of us old enough to remember blacks prior to the Welfare state, we knew a proud people who had survived slavery and discrimmination. In the fifties, if one had to choose between a bunch of "greasers" in rolled up T shirts and slicked back hair or a group of young black men, one felt safer among the black men. Not so anymore. Democrats and welfare have done what slavery and discrimination could not do -- destroy an entire race.

#47 oh stop, my heart is bleeding. I read every post here twice, and have yet to see any racist comments. In your PC bizzaro world that probably makes me a racist.

Here's a different theory...

Maybe the poor black folks in NO were just following the example set by one of their 'role models', the FIRST BLACK PRESIDENT (Clinton), who was a rapist and looter, himself!

Rush had a call from black guy Vince, I think it was. When pressed by Rush, Vince said 99% of blacks think Bush and Republicans want blacks dead. It's doubtful that Vince speaks for all black Americans, but he speaks for too many. I hoped the ugly scene in NOLA would find other blacks ashamed and angered by what we all were seeing. Instead, the loudest voices are blaming others, making excuses and creating myths to justify their diseased thinking.

Looting and violence aside, this is the dark side of black America.

The nazi's and their euopean cohorts were not black people.

There is evil and there is good.

It has nothing to do with race or ethnicity.

It definitely is a culture thing. Gangs are a perfect example of a negative culture that affects way too many young black men. Whites are not immune from negative cultural influences. Look at the gypsies, many of whom make a living scamming people or teenage druggies.


Reply 62 - Posted by: public skooled, 9/6/2005 5:58:42 PM

Yeah...that's it. Black people aren't really that bad. After all, the Nazi's were white!

Good grief!

Our nation wasn't made great by the folks with their head in the sand (or elsewhere) who are afraid of the truth. Like it or not, there isn't one place on Earth, in the entire history of mankind, where Blacks took land from someone else and made it better. If it makes you feel better to call me a racist, then knock yourself out. Be sure to open your home to a displaced black family that is being evacuated from NOLA. Don't be afraid, enlightened L-Dotters, black people aren't bad.

Does that whole thing make anybody else want to throw up?

3. What is the value of this post?

I mean really, why even post this Nazi KKK crap in here? It's ugly, disgusting and serves no purpose.

[AspenRose]

4. True story: It is EXACTLY BECAUSE of posts like that, that I came home

to the Democratic Party.

I was raised in a Democratic home. In college I campaigned for Ann Richards. But later in the 90s I was persuaded that as a Christian, my faith was incongruous with my politics (I now see that was wrong) and so I became more conservative.

I am proud to say that even when I was on that side of the fence, I never, NEVER voted for Bush: not when I was in Texas and he was running for governor; not when he ran for president either time.

But I used to frequent Lucianne.com and I got so sick and tired of those kinds of posts. I figured it was a tradeoff; be insulted for my faith over here or for my race over there.

Let me tell you that it is much easier to find Christian Democrats (and ignore the secularists in the Democratic big tent who REALLY don't like Christianity) than it is to find republicans who aren't racist in some form or fashion. Bush's handling of Haiti, and the response from LDotters, was the last straw for me. And I haven't looked back.
