“LBJ is also the man who forced the Civil Rights Act through Congress, which unleashed the greatest crime wave America has ever seen (and still suffers).
While many speak of 0bama as the worst Prez in out history, LBJ stands alone at the top of that dung heap.”

Good call.

The “Civil Rights Act” was one of the most destructive pieces of legislation ever enacted in America.

What the Civil Rights Act did was to create “protected groups” which, under the guise of such protections, were effectively relieved of acting “like the rest of us”.

The CRA did not promulgate “equal rights”. Quite the contrary, it DESTROYED the cherished concept of everyone being “equal before the law”. The “law” itself sought to establish INEQUALITY, again, by protecting certain groups of individuals and affirmatively diminishing the rights of others.

The Republicans, ever “the stupid party”, refused to see such truths and championed the bill in Congress, when, in actuality, the southern democrats who opposed it were right, having learned from real-life experience.

In a reborn America, there should be NO laws purporting to establish “civil rights” for anybody or for any group.

ANY law or policy that purports to “promote rights” is, in reality, designed to TAKE AWAY such rights from someone. Just as “hate speech” laws are intended to restrict speech.

Free peoples have no need for such things.
If they wish to REMAIN free, that is....

Just sayin’....

Good post.
When confronted over the last 40 years by minorities asking why they should act like whitey, I always replied, "No, we don't want you to act like whites ... we want you to act like Americans."
Very few ever got the point.
