The White Side of Black America ~ Bruce's Commentary:

Buchanan's statement's regarding race issues in America are highly open to criticism and invoke strong feelings and reactions. The one question of importance is how long is white America supposed to be held accountable for the actions of SOME of our ancestors. This mind set caused a riff in the heart and soul of our nation. A civil war was fought and numerous lives lost over this conflict. We can ask the question of how this impacted our nation. How would the lives sacrificed for this cause have changed the history of this country if allowed to be lived to a natural, not violent end. How would the descendants of those slain for this cause have impacted this nation. This issue of slavery and the repression of black America is so vast and sadly ongoing, that it can be compared to a snowball rolling down a mountain, that it's totality will probably never be totally understood.

We can either continue to live in the place of an unforgiving mind set or choose to grow and push forward. We now have had enough generations come into being to have at least gained some perspective on these issues. Do we continue to pass on our hatred, anger and unforgiveness to our children or we can give them a legacy of faith, hope and love to build upon. Sadly, this is not just an issue that has only affected America, but every nation on this planet. It is birthed out of the fallen heart of man and our sinful nature. If we look at the history of this country we also see prejudice and mistreatment has been directed towards every nationality to have come into this country. The Irish, Italian, Oriental, Jewish, as well as other nationalities have all come under intolerance and prejudice of some form. Not just nationality, but social, economical, religious and other issues have come into play as well. It is one of the sad facts we as not just a nation, but as human beings created in the image of a Holy and Loving God must deal with and try with all of our might to move forward from. We can either live in anger, fear and denial or we can have a heart of forgiveness and encouragement for each other. We can either try to put the blame on others, whether justifiable or not or we can take accountability for our current condition and try to grow and proceed with goodwill towards each other from this time on.

There will always be unrighteousness perpetuated towards others from a percentage of the population until the return of Jesus Christ finally remedies this situation. Those who are Christian, I mean the godly Christian, do not look at life in the same way as the world does. We are to view things from an eternal perspective and live our lives for the Glory of God.

The White Side of Black America

The White side of Black America.........
RACE STATISTICS

So this is the infamous article Buchanan wrote. A lot of truth in what he says, but the truth was offensive to the left.





This is the reason CNN has dropped Buchanan. It's like Newt Gingrich said the other night in the debate. You're not supposed to bring up uncomfortable Facts. (verified on Buchanan's website)

BUCHANAN TO OBAMA

Finally............ It is Said Publicly. I have never seen the white side explained better!
Pat Buchanan had the guts to say it. It is about time.


BUCHANAN TO OBAMA By Patrick J. Buchanan

Barack says we need to have a conversation about race in America .. Fair enough. But this time, it has to be a two-way conversation.. White America needs to be heard from, not just lectured to.... This time, the Silent Majority needs to have its convictions, grievances and demands heard.

And among them are these:

First,
America has been the best country on earth for black folks. It was here that 600,000 black people, brought from Africa in slave ships, grew into a community of 40 million, were introduced to Christian salvation, and reached the greatest levels of freedom and prosperity blacks have ever known.. Jeremiah Wright ought to go down on his knees and thank God he is an American.

Second,
No people anywhere has done more to lift up blacks than white Americans. Untold trillions have been spent since the '60s on welfare, food stamps, rent supplements, Section 8 housing, Pell grants, student loans, legal services, Medicaid, Earned Income Tax Credits and poverty programs designed to bring the African-American community into the mainstream. Governments, businesses and colleges have engaged in discrimination against white folks -- with affirmative action, contract set-asides and quotas -- to advance black applicants over white applicants. Churches, foundations, civic groups, schools and individuals all over America have donated their time and money to support soup kitchens, adult education, day care, retirement and nursing homes for blacks.
We hear the grievances. Where is the gratitude??

Barack talks about new 'ladders of opportunity' for blacks. Let him go to Altoona? And Johnstown, and ask the white kids in Catholic schools how many were visited lately by Ivy League recruiters handing out scholarships for 'deserving' white kids...? Is white America really responsible for the fact that the crime and incarceration rates for African-Americans are seven times those of white America? Is it really white America's fault that illegitimacy in the African-American community has hit 70 percent and the black dropout rate from high schools in some cities has reached 50 percent?

Is that the fault of white America or, first and foremost, a failure of the black community itself?

As for racism, its ugliest manifestation is in interracial crime, and especially interracial crimes of violence. Is Barack Obama aware that while white criminals choose black victims 3 percent of the time, black criminals choose white victims 45 percent of the time?

Is Barack aware that black-on-white rapes are 100 times more common than the reverse, that black-on-white robberies were 139 times as common in the first three years of this decade as the reverse?

We have all heard ad nausea from the Rev. Al about Tawana Brawley, the Duke rape case and Jena. And all turned out to be hoaxes. But about the epidemic of black assaults on whites that are real, we hear nothing.


Barack, some of us have heard it all before, about 40 years and 15 trillion tax dollars ago.

This message needs to be told because, this is a message everyone needs to hear!!!

Because I'm for a better America, I am not racist, not violent, nor silent anymore.

I will add the second part of this post in a few days, titled The White Side of Black America ~ Bruce's Commentary:
