Headlines you'll never see....

Ironic, I think that the man who represented the New Black Panthers on Bill O'Reilly some time ago claimed that it was impossible for blacks to be racist. Not only is it an arrogant claim, but a dishonest one as well. ANYONE at ANYTIME can be racist. Sadly we hear alot more about the Duke case than this one. 8 convicted of hate attack in Long Beach - Los Angeles Times While justice in this case may have been served, there certainly are no winners. Instead of having the case openly aired across the nation, this news was essentially swept under the mainstream media carpet for what I would guess is its unpalatability. Surely no one wants to read that black folk can be mean, vindictive and racist. Just ask Reginald Denny. Of course I'm being facetious. Reginald Denny was beaten by a crowd of blacks under the influence of 'mob mentality.' To tell the truth, I'm surprised that defense wasn't tried here.
And so it goes throughout the history of the late 20th century that whenever blacks commit heinous crimes the press gives them an excuse to have committed it. Whenever we convict them we say we're sorry it had to be this way, then fund another worthless minority help program to try and dismiss our misplaced 'white guilt.' If we are ever wrong in our convictions we are held fast to the fire and ordered to pay millions to the wronged person as we apologize profusely. Too bad it only works that way for the minorities. We'll never hear I'm sorry from the unreelected Cynthia McKinney. She's probably making $1000 a plate appearances on the lecture circuit. Mike Nifong will do the same even if he is disbarred. Both of them will continue to profit from unfounded allegations invoking racist rants across the country. CNN, Fox News and all the major networks continue to paint a picture of racist whites and compliant, loving minorities that are stretching the boundaries of uncivil behavior. They get away with murder while we are accused of making them commit said murder.
One other high profile no show in the media is the fight in the Atlanta suburbs involving money and race. Fulton county has over 900,000 residents. 29% of them are upper middle class whites in the northern half of the county. The rest are mostly 'income challenged' blacks. The white folk want to break away and form their own county to better serve their interests. (They currently pay 48% of the county's taxes.) The blacks are crying racist and claiming that allowing the white folk to break away will decimate the county coffers. Duh. I cant imagine that blacks wouldn't try to do the same given a reversal of the circumstances. 'Course, the press would stand behind them. It would be the politically correct thing to do. Right?
