They haven’t been watching “My Sweet 16” show. At least half the snotty little rich kids on there are black.

BTW, I don’t watch it but when channel surfing it’s pause for a snort of disgust.

That show is a train wreck!

Sadly it is also a telling window into our society.

The downward death spiral of our entire society, encapsulated in a stupid TV show.

Those so called”rich”black kids you see?
Half of their parents are two paychecks from the welfare line.

My daughter goes to a magnet school where half the population is black. These kids are there because they "get it", that without a good education, they are going to get nowhere in life. They get grades as good or better than she does, and she's gifted. It is all about what you decide you are going to value.

I always have to laugh...the Republicans were the ones fighting slavery, and the ones who say "you can make for yourself the best possible life by hard work and by getting education. We believe you can do just as well as anyone in the workplace by self-improvement and dedication. Go to it!" The Democrats seemingly carry the black community in their back pocket by saying, "you poor things! We know you can't possibly achieve what everyone else is expected to do! We will provide money so you don't have to learn how to be self-reliant, we will expect less of you to the point of forcing schools and employers to make special accomidations for you, and if you fail in the work place because we have taught you that you are really trying hard when you are only trained to do a slacker's job, we will blame the employer and help you sue." And of course, the Republicans are the Bad Guys.

Martin Luther King had it right...we should judge not on the color of your skin but on the contents of your heart. The sad thing is that the Democrats make us two Americas by playing on color. There are tens of thousands of black people who are living good lives, paying their taxes, and loving their kids, and they never make the news. Jessie and Al ensure that all we ever hear is the bad news.
