It seems that once again Black America is being used and mis-lead! This time by MIKE! While he was Mayor of NYC he implemented “Stop & Frisk” mostly targeting Black and Brown males in affected neighborhoods. Instead of sticking to his guns and noting that gun violence was in those communities and that is was those very residents that needed protection from bad actors, he turns tail and asks for FORGIVENESS and he claims he made a mistake. Why? Because he knew he was going to run for President and needed the vote from the Black and Brown community! Watch his commercial, people of color shamelessly sprinkled throughout the video!!!!
Oh and for those that say POTUS is a wanna be dictator remember this, MIKE extended the term limit law to run for a third term. Money and power at it’s worse!
Also, MIKE has no allegiance, as he was a Democrat before seeking elective office and switched to the Republican Party in 2001 to run for mayor!
Is this what America needs as a leader, I think not.

Tonight I was watching the movie “The Grapes of Wrath”. All Americans should watch this movie about poor Whites who were treated like dirt.

Americans…our ancestors whether it be White, Black or Native American had to fight for dignity, the right to live, the right to give their children and their children’s children a better life and a future. They had to demonstrate and march and fight. Some got beaten, some died to get laws created or changed to ensure equal opportunities for their people and all worker’s rights. Those before us earned their way.

So now we are supposed to let thousands of people bum-rush our Southern border and take or be given what they haven’t earned! Why? Because of entitlements. The promise of entitlements made by politicians but paid for by hard working Americans. But what about other Americans – the homeless – the elderly – the Veterans and the working poor, where are their entitlements? We need to help Americans and as we always have,  the USA can assist countries to help themselves!

I have a problem with Democrats once again trying to win the Black vote with the promise of freebies!

However for those who need a history lesson….slavery was not just a United States phenomenon! Slavery was an institution that was world wide and in some countries still is today. In Africa, Africans were slave owners. In the Middle East, tribes had slave owners and slaves. In fact read your Bible, weren’t the Israelites slaves in Egypt? England acquired most if not all of the slave trade from these two continents. And further more it was Africans who escorted England slave traders into interior Africa and assisted in locating and capturing tribes that couldn’t defend themselves.

Fast forward to pre Civil War and the war it self. If It weren’t for the actions of White Americans, primarily in the North, who wanted slavery to end, where would Blacks be today. If it weren’t for White American soldiers who took up arms and many died for the cause, would slavery have ended when it did? So should those White families who can trace THEIR ancestry back to those who fought and died be given reparations for their loss or should they be exempt from paying, due to the fact their ancestors paid in blood?

And for those who are of mixed ancestry do you pay yourself?

Wasn’t Affirmative Action Executive Orders 10925 & 11246 supposedly issued to aide Blacks in achieving the American Dream? How much money has been poured into school systems on the Federal and State level but to no avail in some cases!

But with ghettos and poor communities still in existence, you see more people of color, than ever before making achievements in every field from education to the sciences to the corporate world. And some of those people came from very poor beginnings.

What we should be discussing is how to bring every American out of poverty by putting money into cities and towns. By restoring viable jobs to areas that suffered from the closing of coal mines, steel factories auto manufacturing plants and the move of major corporations out of the country!

There are as many White and Native Americans who suffer as do Blacks and other people of color! This is one Country and We should be United to help every American Citizen who needs the help, wants the help and uses the help and pays it back to help others!

Now that this INVESTIGATION is over…

Can Congress:

1. Find out when, how and who started this false narrative! And those people need to be taken through the same investigation as was the President and all those associated with him!

2. Get back to the business of US, the American Citizens. I think all of Congress have forgotten who elected them and that they are supposed to be working for us!

Just because I don’t want open borders – That doesn’t make me a Racist!

Just because I don’t want to pay for illegal immigrants – That doesn’t make me a Racist!

Just because I don’t like or want the Green New Deal – That doesn’t make me a Racist!

Just because I don’t want Socialism – That doesn’t make me a Racist!

Just because I voted for and am happy with the results President Trump has achieved – That Doesn’t make me Racist!

As a matter there are many Americans with decendents of Native Americans, Black, Irish, Italian and so many other people from around the world who had to struggle (and in some cases still struggling) to cut out a piece of the American Dream! But our ancestors PAID THEIR DUES worked hard and through dedication and a culture that fought to make a Country change for their lives, their children’s future and generations to com,  we all have a chance to succeed.

So if expecting any one who wants to come into the United States Do it Legally and PAY  THEIR DUES  – if wanting to make my money and strive to do as well as I can – to eat a hamburger and drive my car doesn’t mesh with your ideology so be it! Let’s agree to disagree but don’t call me a Racist!

The protests need to stop and stop now. If they started due to the murder of George Floyd, ALL of the police involved have been arrested and are in custody. Wasn’t that the premise? Now let the judicial system work.  But to say The US is a racist society is absurd. Why?

To say that there country wide systemic is ridiculous.  Why? There are more people of color in sports (since Robinson). There are more people of color who own businesses or at the head of many companies and major corporations. There are doctors, lawyers, scientists and other professionals that are people of color! Who had a knee on their necks!

However, there are still areas in the inner cities that have major issues. Look at NYC how many years did and will NYCHA residents have to suffer with no heat, no hot water, no water, broken elevators, pests and just poor living conditions! Where are the protests? Why does it still exist? What about the countless Black on Black shootings that result in innocent children and people including police being mudered! Where are the protests?  Where is BLM when it happens in those communities weekly!

We have had more Black Politicians on the local level, mayors of cities, in Congress and a Black President for four years!  Why weren’t these issues addressed and corrected then!

Now let’s stop the pigeonhole action of wrapping everything as systemic racism.

I think we have to redefine and separate Racism from Racist and Racist from Prejudice. In my opinion from historical events Racism is the systematic and ideological disparity between races. Example specific labels for White or Black only bathrooms or water fountains. The purpose is to make an entire race appear subservient to another race or races. I believe in the year 2019 the blatant Black versus White Racism of that sort is gone. Are there other forms of racism? Of course but not solely based on one color or race,  now it can be based on language, religion and place of origin. However, the act of racism is not conducted  by a National, State or City mandate. Racism is more “locally based”. Neighborhoods with quiet rules of occupancy bias or stores hiring with language and nationality constraints or refusal to serve or make a person feel unwanted in their establishment.

A Racist is an individual or a group of individuals that by personal choice has a strong negative opinion or out and out hatred towards a group or groups of people and equally passionate of the superiority of their own race. Extreme groups are vocal on that hatred.

Being Prejudice seems to be inherent in all human beings!  If we are honest with ourselves, I am sure at sometime you have thought or voiced a prejudice based opinion. Get cut off in your car by someone and you most likely used a curse along with a disparaging description of that person and most likely of their race, sex or ethnicity. Did you sound like Archie Bunker or George Jefferson? Watch the Spike Lee movie Do The Right Thing” that proves the point!

Everyday there is a new commercial depicting bi-racial families couples and children. Bi- racial or mixed race relationships are common place, not like back in the 70’s or even 80’s when people whispered “look at them!

We need to stop tagging the United States as a racist country. We need to stop tagging people or groups ( MAGA hat wearers) as racist especially if you have never interacted with that individual or group.

But for those people or groups that we KNOW to be racist and radical, then call them out and be just as vocal against them and their hate speeches!

As far as defunding the police….stop the nonsense. We need law and order. No matter where you are, inner city, or the suburbs,  if there is a theft, incidents of domestic violence or any other crime, everyone calls 911. Just imagine if there is no one to respond!

Tonight I listened to our President give his State of the Union address! I found nothing that was “false” or untrue! How could anyone disagree with what our President stated? From job growth to the economy to trade to immigration, we ALL need to get on board! One Nation Under GOD!

To Congress …Stop the partisan nonsense and do what you were hired to do… work for the betterment of the United States Citizens , your constituents. It hurt to watch the left side of the aisle not stand and show support for what has been accomplished and what still needs to be done.

The internal war between parties has to STOP! Healing can only begin with compassion, compromise and respect. It needs to start tonight and not a minute later. Please.

How many of you are hard working middle class US citizens who got or get nothing for free! But go to work everyday and watch every penny to make ends meet! How many of you went into debt to put yourself or your kids thru college but wasn’t eligible for any type of assistance because by US or State tax codes or program requirements you made too much money but was struggling from pay check to paycheck.

Now the the New Socialists  Democrats want me to pay for FREE tuition pay for FREE medical coverage and whatever other entitlements they can come up with for illegal immigrants!

My question to you – what about the US citizens who are hungry and homeless and out in this bitter cold tonight? How many of them are getting entitlements?

Ok enough is enough! Last year (January) you offered a preliminary plan for protection for DACA immigrants roughly 700,000 AND for an additional 1.1 million illegal immigrants who hadn’t yet applied. Even the CNBC report said “ Democrats would be crazy to reject Trump’s DACA deal”.

Now you offer again refugee & DACA protection for three years and only ask for “targeted fencing” and an increase in border agents!

Your plan was shot down without even a willingness to talk and hash it out. It is obvious that the Democrats are only interested in stopping your campaign promises and agenda!

So for the benefit of those Federal employees who are struggling, the peace of mind for All Americans and respect on the world stage, claim your Executive Order and be done with it. Make it known you have the interest of All Americans and don’t want anyone to bear the brunt of this political nonsense. The Dems, Far Left and Far Right Republicans will find something else to complain about.

Maintain and Grow YOUR base with your America First Agenda! I am with you President Trump! GOD Bless America

I am tired of the media blaming President Trump for everything! This violence actually started during the campaign! Look for the footage of Trump supporters being chased or cornered attending or leaving rallies! Yes, I know…then candidate Trump during his speeches would say abrupt things, but it was in response to rude and insulting hecklers that most times had to be escorted out of the rallies and it still happens even today!

However…. the Media should have been and still be the voice of reason and the first to denounce all acts of violence and blatant disrespect and they need to stop doing it themselves!

I heard the Left and elected Democrats urge people to get in the face of Trump’s cabinet and staff. I watched the Left  supporters abuse politicians or staffers at dinner!!! I did not hear the Media report that those words or actions could be detrimental or ask for it to stop! I saw a shooting at a softball practice and a Republican Congressman get shot and fight for his life. But I did not hear the Media ask for healing then!

Now we have a nut running loose leaving “bombs”. I question the motive. Is is it a far Left person attempting to rally a Democratic Blue Wave or is it a far Right person with “pay back “ on their mind! Either one is sick and there is NO PLACE for this in the United States!

Politics especially during campaigns has always gotten down and dirty but never dangerous! It has to stop and stop today before someone dies!

Media get off of the hate Trump soapbox and get on the peace and respect band wagon.  Enough is Enough!
