Obama, Trayvon Martin Could Have Been Me

Shame on you Barack Obama! 

Your speech “Trayvon Martin could have been me” is reprehensible, 

although you did say one thing I actually agree with and that is 

“that it hasn’t been productive when politicians organize conversations”.

 In case you have forgotten you are a politician and your conversation about this has certainly NOT been productive.

 Do you really believe that “black folks” are the only ones who could ever understand inequality? Do you actually think your civil rights double speak is really   “contributing to the peace, and security, and order that we’d like to see?”

Do you think only “black folks” are racially profiled? I am white and I feel racially profiled by you! 

Do you really think Afro American boys are the only ones in the nation who need help? Are they the only ones who need to feel their country cares about them, and values them, and is willing to invest in them?

Ask yourself your own questions, “Am I wringing as much bias out of myself as I can?  Am I judging people as much as I can, not by the color of their skin, but the content of their character?”

Can’t you see your own racial tendencies?

Your comments were slanted, biased, and racially charged.  How does this promote unity?

How can you state in good conscience that “those of us in authority should be doing everything we can to encourage the better angels of our nature as opposed to using these episodes to heighten divisions?”

Didn’t you just contribute to the unrelenting media slant whose primary cause is to stir up the people and cause contention with one another?  Is it by keeping us in a state of unrest that you practice more fully your unrighteous dominion over us, the “less than perfect Union”?

Again I say, put away the race card and let’s look truthfully at what is happening here. 

(That is, if truth is even a thing that can be found.)

And on that note... here is a video that MUST be seen.
