The Plantation Of Liberalism

A friend posted this bit of wisdom from a friend of her's on her Facebook page. It is worth the read. ~ Hunter
Ferguson , New York City, Chicago, Detroit, New Orleans and EVERY OTHER MAJOR BLACK CITY IN AMERICA HAS BEEN RUN BY DEMOCRATS FOR DECADES! Now you are seeing the results of decades of social engineering. You are seeing the results of poverty, high crime and ignorance after decades of Democrat control. The War on Poverty that Lyndon Johnson started has been an abject failure, but that was its intention all along - to breed low educated, low informed dependents of government, for the sake of votes.
Blacks make up 13% of Americas population, but are responsible for most of the crime. They fill the jails, the slums, the neighborhoods where the Democrats want them to live. They keep voting Democrat, but nothing gets better.
Now we have the most divisive and racist President in the history of America. We also have his equally racist henchmen, Eric Holder, who refuses to enforce actual law, as opposed to activist law. They choose to make the criminals victims and the law abiding citizens of America the criminals. Need an example? Executive amnesty.
In reality, these so called activists are extreme hypocrites . Black Lives Matter. Yes they do, except where is your outrage for the hundreds of thousands of black on black killings? I see no marches, hashtags, protests, looting, calls for dialogue and conversation when blacks commit murder a thousand fold on each other. No, only the incidents involving a white individual (not including whited killed by blacks) which can be spun into hate crimes.
Planned Parenthood says Black Lives Matter. Planned Parenthood was created by a Nazi sympathizing Klanswoman named Margaret Sanger, for the purpose of eugenics - it's  population control through abortion in the black community. She's a progressive hero, by the way.
The only thing the Brown and Garner incidents have in common is that they both broke the law and resisted arrest.
FYI, the Garner incident was being overseen by a BLACK FEMALE NYPD SERGEANT, and at no time did she call for any sort of restraint. If what happened in the eyes of a black woman did not appear racist, it shoots the whole argument down that this was a hate crime.
Two grand juries, made up of black and white, two "no bill" decisions, based on evidence from black and white witnesses. Apparently, thanks to a POTUS who constantly breaks the law and gets away with it, that sort of mentality is permeating through the neighborhoods of his voters.
If you want to blame white people, blame Mayor Deblasio of New York. He sent the cops after Garner because he wanted his precious tax money! In fact, you can thank both black and white Democrats, who for decades have segregated blacks into the high crime, high poverty areas they currently occupy. Let's not forget Margaret Sanger, Lyndon Johnson, Woodrow Wilson, FDR, and even Bill Clinton, until he got a Republican Congress.
Black Lives do Matter! It's about time the hypocrisy of picking and choosing what outrages you ends. If you are upset about only two, yet ignore the massive black on black crime , you don't have any sort of argument. If you vote Democrat for decades - the party of slavery, the party of Jim Crow and the KKK, the party of segregation, the party of social engineering and eugenics, the party of the government plantation - and you vote Democrat over and over again, and can't understand why nothing has changed for you, you will never find help.

What's Wrong With America: Disposability

I was listening to a few people talking while at work the other day. The subject of the conversation was happiness in a marriage - more specifically, the lack of happiness in a marriage.

I don't recall the details too clearly, but what drew my attention was a remark made by a woman I work with declaring "if she wasn't happy in a marriage, she'd get a divorce." She made it sound like she wanted to be made happy in a marriage every minute, of every day, of every year, and would tolerate nothing less.

It was an offhand comment, and while I'm sure she didn't truly intend to sound so flippant, it did get me thinking about one of the issues facing society today: Disposability.

Don't misunderstand - I'm not talking about disposable diapers, or disposable razors, or any of the countless other disposable products that have made our lives easier in a basic sense. Those are little things overall. No, my issue is with the larger things that have become "disposable" to far too many in America. I'm talking about the bigger picture, if you will.

Marriage used to be a lifelong commitment. My own grandmother became a widow in 1948, two short years after my father was born. Not only was she still a widow when she passed away in 1993, to the best of my knowledge, my grandmother never even dated anyone after my grandfather died. All of her siblings, save one, were married, just once, and they stayed married for decades.

My own parents have been married just shy of forty-five years. It hasn't been easy, especially with ten children. They're both as stubborn as mules, both quick to anger, and neither quick to forgive and/or forget. But commitments were made and, thus far, honored.

Today, it seems people believe that they just deserve to be happy, but it also seems like they believe they don't have to work at it.

(Hey, if you can find a relationship that works like that outside of some ridiculous TV show, more power to ya. The rest of us will just have to be jealous while we work at ours.)

Marriage today is disposable. You don't like how much money your spouse makes - kick him/her to the curb and find someone else. Don't like your sex life? Let's go out and find a new partner. The list of "grievances" could go on until the end of time. People today give up at the slightest hint of trouble. The United States is becoming a nation of quitters.

(For the record, I am in NO WAY advocating that people stay in a violent or abusive relationship. NOBODY has the right to commit violence upon another.)

What went wrong? Why do so many take the easy way out?

To my mind, it all comes down to progressivism. (I won't call them liberals any longer. The Founders were liberals. Today, they would be known as conservatives.)

Progressives have broken down everything that once made this nation the envy of the world. Your marriage is rough? It's not your fault. End it and find another one. Your parents want you to take responsibility for your mistakes? You don't have to take that from them. You don't need them anyway. After all, it takes a village. You're pregnant because you had unprotected sex? Kill it. It's not your fault, so you shouldn't have to be "punished" with that non-human blob of goo. Then you can go back to your fun!!! You're  a minority? Well hell, the white man keeps you down (they're all racists). Here, take this money. You don't need to demean yourself and actually work to better yourself. Just make sure to vote for us in the next election and we'll take care of you. Wink, wink

Everything is disposable to a progressive. Once it's served its purpose they get rid of it. Relationships, self-esteem and pride in one's own ability and self worth - none of that matters anymore. Even human life is disposable to a progressive. Just witness the murder of 3,300 or so of pre-born human beings every day. (And that's just here in the U.S.)

We need to get back to a reverence for the better way of doing things, instead of taking the easy way.

But most of all, we need to get back to a reverence for life, because without that, everything else - and I do mean everything - really is disposable. ~ Hunter
