Rainbow Flags and Black Books

"The Family Research Council strongly opposes gay marriage and abortion and says it advocates 'faith, family and freedom in public policy and public opinion.'” 1

Wait a minute, hold up.  Did I read that correctly? First of all, why do we need a group called “The Family Research Council” in the first place? Is a family something that needs to be researched? Or is this just another way for a group to claim that they are not racist or discriminating, and walk around and throw money at elected officials to support their agenda.

But the fact remains that the statement that they believe in public policy and public opinion is ridiculous. They should change their tag line to “we believe that public policy should be allowed to discriminate”. I have put my neck on the line for the issue of allowing gay people to marry and adopt, because I see the bigger picture.

Here is a little background for you about me and this issue. I use to oppose gay marriage; I use to believe that it was wrong. But like most sensible humans I really thought about the situation, and it was rather simple. First of all, I am not gay, so why am I so worried about what they are doing in the first place? Secondly I believe in the true definition of Freedom.

Look, if these men and women are good enough to catch a bullet and die for us here in our plush air conditioned homes, watching two political parties that are involved in the same destructive policies, then why can’t these individuals be able to get married? So it is alright for them to die for us, but it is not alright for them to have freedom to love who they may.

I mean, we are worried about the economy right? I am sure that there would be a lot of people getting paid if we allowed these individuals to get married. Weddings, honeymoons, cakes, gifts, and on and on!  

As a parent, one thing I had to realize was that no matter how I think my children should live, one day they are going to be able to make their own decisions, and if one of my children walked up to me and told me that they were gay the last thing I would do is tell them that they are going to go to hell.

I am sure there are a lot of people dealing with this, and those that are going to have to face this in the future; I hope they are prepared to deal with it, and I hope they chose to be supportive.

With all the recent energy that Mitt Romney has received for selecting Ryan and the individuals that refuse to look at Mr. Ryan’s voting trends, it is rather ignorant to put it politely. I think it is odd that Mr. Ryan is so strongly against abortion.  A man shouldn’t really be making decisions for women in the first place, but he is so twisted that he also believes that a gay couple should not be able to adopt.  So not only is he forcing women to have unwanted babies, but he is denying those who want to adopt them!

See, that is why I have to separate myself from the conservative party.  They scream and rant about too much government but then they start restricting every part of our lives at will. Of course I am not into throwing all of our money out to those that do not want to work and continue to live off welfare without trying to improve themselves. But to deny love and companionship is pretty crazy in this day and age.

I think most children do not care who raises them- gay, straight, or whatever. They just want to be loved. And if that means allowing gay couples to adopt them and get these children out of foster care, then fine- let gay people adopt.

I do not think that a gay couple is really trying to adopt children for some gay revolution- to eliminate all straight people on the planet. When a couple is in love no matter gay or straight there is a lot of love to share, and if they can do that and produce productive individuals in our society then I am fine with that, personally.

I am tired of the bigotry and hate that is often entrenched within politics and religion. When you present facts to most of these individuals they are quick to forget the evolutionary cycle that humans have been through. You would swear that they are still dragging their knuckles on the ground, trying to make a fire with two twigs.

So in my personal opinion, until we allow all individuals to get married and live a prosperous life, then such violent acts, like what happened at the movie theater, the temple, and many other situations- will continue to happen. I challenge all of you to really think about it.  How are gay issues really harming your life?

Oh yeah, and if you live in California you should pack your bags and move real quick, because gay and lesbian studies will become mandatory. I wish they would have made African American studies mandatory, but hey, it is what is what it is, and to deny that gay and lesbians have made great contributions to our society would be foolish.

I am sure if that hunk of a fire fighter pulling your ass out of burning building was gay, you wouldn’t be saying “No! Put me down! Let me burn!” I never agree with violence in any situation, just wanted to point out that this group is not for freedom and should never say such a thing, they are for restricting freedom. I wonder if guns were created before the bible, would they be illegal?... Oops I forgot, guns don’t kill people, people kill people…. answered my own question.

Sherrod and the Scam of Destruction

The battle of race will always continue to be a horrendous fight in this country. No matter how much we try to say that it will be eradicated or disappear the wounds only seem to become deeper and often infected. There are so many organizations that act is if the want to help deal with the issue but only drop the ball and become worse than the enemy they are supposed to be fighting.

These organizations know that their behaviors should not be included in their tactics to support their agenda. An organization that is moving towards equality should understand that equality can not be created by a board of directors or executives. Equality can only be developed by those that depend on grass root philosophies. Organizations that are dependent on any sort of hierarchy defeat the purpose of equality. The movement towards equality should be fluent and smooth. An increase in violence and tension should be expected. These threats can easily be identified and should be prepared for in advance.

Equality is something that can not be reached in a country that was dependent on violence, control of media, and mind manipulation to move their agenda forward. The past few weeks have been racially motivated to a level that I have not witnessed since the Rodney King situation in the 90’s. But instead of a riot in the streets, the media has thrown rocks and have hijacked the minds of the people. Equality is false, like the word Freedom. No matter how hard these organizations try to denounce their racist agenda they often stumble over their own words.

The Tea Party has final been put in the spotlight and are being shown for what they are, racist old white people. Now that an African American is the face of the country even though his strings are still being pulled by the economic elitist of the world the real issues are still being avoided. White Americans have an approval rating of 37% on Obama as a president, now this is according to CNN. This number is considerably higher than I thought but only supports my thesis that a solution to fixing racism in America is impossible.

The NAACP used their power to get the leader of the Tea Party fired. After the NAACP forced the leader of the Tea Party out they decided that it was their turn to fire back at the NAACP and did. Even though this move can be considered as an epic fail, it still shows the power that whites have in America. Sherrod was forced to step down and the NAACP did not even want to jeopardize their name and support Sherrod at all. If it was not for the white farmer that received help from Sherrod she may be in the unemployment line next Monday morning.

The NAACP is a joke, they remind me of a group of house Negroes that want to dress up and play master. They have not helped move the black agenda forward at all. They would rather protect their name instead of investigating the facts. Sherrod speech was presented in front of them. The Tea Party blogger attacked the wrong person Sherrod did not even work for the NAACP; she was just speaking to them. Epic fail Mr. Blogger attack the NAACP not a woman that is presenting a speech and expressing how she overcame racism to help someone. This is like locking up a black man for jaywalking because he was helping an old white women walking down the street and the light became red.

Conservative or not I can not allow for racist organizations to represent me and my views. See I am smarter than the house Negro that continues to vote for the democrats because I think that they want to help me out. If I reach the mountain tops there is no reason for me to hand out money to those that do not want to change. If blacks would rather buy a pair of Jordan’s and some FUBU pants instead of adding that money to rent then that is their fault for being stuck in the projects and the same for those white folks in trailers across America.

Race will always be a factor in America, equality will never happen. Women make less then men, whites make more than blacks, Asian do not even seem as if they have a voice but continue to wash our clothes, prepare donuts, and fill college campuses across the country, Gay’s and Lesbians will always be denied the chance to love each other, and illegal-aliens are the new slaves. If it is not race it will be class, there is always going to be something that separates the people from each other.

The words “We The People” is a very important line that often seems to be forgotten. It is not just about a particular sub-culture or group of people here in America. It is about all of us working together and living together. But as long as we have these idiots in control they will continue to divide and separate us. No matter if a person is on the left or the right common sense should one day kick in and play a role in decision making. So to the groups that are only interested in helping people dependent on race: let Goldman and Sacks run your books for a while and may you have a speedy downfall, so the real Patriots can help this country (and that is not you tea-baggers). Do not tread on me haters.
