Racism is an inescapable part of human nature. But there are too many instances of black success to believe “institutional racism” is a significant force in American society. Black culture leads popular culture.

A subset of black culture, which is not bound to race, is determined to keep itself down. I am acquainted with plenty of pink-skinned babymamas who are unlikely to succeed due to their attitude and outlook. Pigmentation and ability are overruled by disposition.

I think that the main stream press really wanted to make people think that the Zimmerman/Martin, or Martin/Zimmerman case was about racism.
I don’t know if Zimmerman was driven by racism, or not, in his past with Martin and his fatal encounter with Martin. Maybe he was. Maybe he was not.

But, to me, the main stream press really jumped to soon, in labeling Zimmerman a “killer-racist”, when the Zimmerman/Martin news story broke, about a month ago.

But suddenly, about 4 days ago, the Zimmerman/Martin stories suddenly were quickly taken off the front pages, and disappeared to the back pages of newspapers.

Four days ago, NBC was found playing someone’s [suspiciously doctored sound tape] of Zimmerman’s 911 call, and a clearer video, of [possible post-fight] red marks on Zimmerman’s head, also appeared four days ago.

Then, as I said, the main stream press backed away from this story, without explanation.
I suppose they backed away from the “Zimmerman maybe a horrible racist story”, when the press saw that there may be a big chance, that Zimmerman might not be a huge racist, in this tragic event.

Maybe Zimmerman was, and maybe Zimmerman was not, but I think everyone needs to check their habits, and not label a person [as someone who uses racism], before we have ample proof that he or she actually does use it.

Cannot resist a bit of quotation:

[F]or liberal blacks and the broader American left, the poetic truth that white racism is somehow the real culprit in this tragedy is redemption itself.
[…]
The great trick of poetic truth is to pass itself off as the deep and essential truth so that hard facts that refute it must be dismissed in the name of truth. O.J. Simpson was innocent by the poetic truth that the justice system is stacked against blacks.
[…]
Before the 1960s the black American identity (though no one ever used the word) was based on our common humanity, on the idea that race was always an artificial and exploitive division between people. After the ’60s–in a society guilty for its long abuse of us–we took our historical victimization as the central theme of our group identity. We could not have made a worse mistake.

so black on black crime is ignored as being caused by living in slums made by white Americas systematic racism.

But … if white Americans are the products of their environment, then they cannot be held responsible for systematic racism, can they?

Confounding liberals’ ill thought-through arguments is one of my few remaining pleasures in life.
