How long have you been Black?
I have lived this shit. Seen it up close and personal.
And the self interest you speak of needs to go beyond entitlements.
The protests over Michael Brown are the result of people jumping to a conclusion WITHOUT having all of the pertient information to go on.
And others who believe that going off half cocked is a good thing.
Conservative talking to a Liberal, let me tell you that going through life acting without thinking is a sure way to be unsuccessful.
Once Black people start using their brains instead of their emotions they will be on the road to stopping the conditions they are protesting.
Until then they will continue to be little more than dumb aSS n-----S RIOTING IN THE STREETS PROMPTED BY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT HAVE THEIR BEST INTERESTS AT HEART.
OK, this is the second time you've trotted out your black credentials. Don't bother.
I agree that voting in one's self-interests should go beyond entitlements. Then again, when you're barely keeping your head above water, entitlements are keeping you afloat, it's foolish to vote to end those things.
I do not defend the rioters, nor do I condone them. And I think plenty fine for myself. That's YOUR problem, if you think that you have the market cornered on independent thinking.
By the way, if you've bothered to ask, you'd find out that I've seen plenty of this shit up close as well.
As a well intentioned but clueless liberal?
Ever cross your mind that you MIGHT not be helping Black folks as much as you THINK you are?
No one is talking about ending entitlements to those who are needy.
Leave your liberal exaggerations, simplifications, do-gooder dilettantism and assumptions at the door if we chat again.
Okay?
