In March, Ryan said during an appearance on Bill Bennett's radio show that there is a "tailspin of culture, in our inner cities in particular, of men not working and just generations of men not even thinking about working or learning to value the culture of work."

We had a large black community here, had been in the same place as long as I can remember. Drove through there the other day and saw nothing but Mexican women and their men with 2-3 tiny kids tagging along while pushing a baby stroller. The Mexicans move in and the blacks move out. Kumbaya.

Nothing will get you in trouble faster than telling the truth.

Years ago when I was younger I called about becoming a ‘Big Brother’.

The first thing they ask was my race. I ask what the hell difference it made what my race was. I just thought they might enjoy working in the garden, going fishing etc.

She said they only needed/wanted black Big Brothers, because...get this...non blacks wouldn’t be a good role model for black kids!!

I $hit you not, those were her exact words.

From the black nationalist perspective, African-Americans and Hispanics “own” poverty and the ghetto. Because of past history, they believe that the supposed white-run federal government is responsible for providing them with reasonable employment or a fair income in lieu of jobs, as well as housing when they can’t afford it on their own.

Their rationale is that the modern federal government (i.e. taxpayers) still owes them compensation for white colonial slave owners and the permanent damage they inflicted on black culture. It’s written in their own literature and spread through racist indoctrination centers such as Trinity Church in Chicago, the Abyssinian Church in NYC, and in every major city throughout the country.

Ryan insulted this belief, which is represented as a reasonable expectation by the CBC when they visit their home districts, by implying that all individuals are responsible for their own work and income, regardless of color. That flies in the face of the race-based excuses and justifications that have been sold to black voters in depressed urban areas, in order to explain their plight. It can’t be their responsibility, therefore Ryan has insulted them.

That racial mythology and biased perspective is upheld by their community leaders and elected representatives, when they meet with their constituents. But that’s not the public face we see when they come to Washington.

Tell them to pull their pants up and stop flashing gang signs and talk like an adult and stop blaming everyone. Geez, people from around the world come here and see nothing but opportunities. The democrat party has succeeded in keeping these people in that inner city.

Try moving out and voting republican.
