Another PJTV Entry – On Violence…
Riots in 1965 and 1992
In the latest Left Exposed, Sonja takes us on a walk down Memory Lane…at least the parts that weren’t destroyed in the fiery wakes of the 1965 & 1992 Los Angeles riots, which destroyed, not just homes and businesses, but the notion that liberal politics could lift black neighborhoods to economic prosperity. As Sonja poignantly notes, liberalism did just the opposite.
Click the image at right and take a visit through an interesting bit of Sonja’s personal history – and why she’s worried about future possibilities. I’ve written often, and some might say heatedly, about who is actually responsible for the continuing racial divide, i.e., who continues to pick the scabs and fan the flames… Here’s a calm and piercing look at this issue. Take a look at the video and tell me what you think! But please, do it before this video gets shifted to the archives out of the reach of non-subscribers.
Another note on the progressive left, which isn’t very progressive, former KKK member and democratic party paragon Robert Byrd passed away today. How many Republican former Klan members are there? I’m betting none. Conservatives don’t get the kinds of free passes liberals do.
@Jeff Ain’t that the truth!? I can remember a string of incidents involving the word “niggardly.” I wanted to scream “get a dictionary you idiots!”
@The Skald
But you see, it isn’t about the actual definition. It’s about the person receiving the message and their sensitivities to certain vowel-consonant combinations. I wonder if America’s penchant for backing the underdog has overdeveloped into a need to support the “victim” no matter what… even when the victim is just a whining priss with too thin a skin.
@Jeff
Aaaackk! hkaugh! ggaaahhh… ok, ok… though really, I don’t feel much better after choking on what is likely the truth. The scary part of this for me is simply that I’m not sure what to do to change the status quo… OH! Shit, I forgot, conservatives are supposed to argue FOR the status quo…
