The Race War: It will keep going until we stop those who are supporting it!

I read something this morning that is really disturbing and honestly I am not shocked. What is happening around this country is sad and it wont be resolved until everyone starts to learn to put race aside. A friend post an article about artists who are touring in the state of Florida and have canceled their tour dates to boycott the stand your ground law. Justin Timberlake said this

"I REFUSE TO ENTERTAIN A STATE WHO'S GOVERNMENT ALLOWS PEOPLE TO SHOOT-N-KILL UN-ARMED TEENAGERS!" 

I fully understand being passionate about something I believe in and not supporting something that is against what I believe, but come on really? Do you honestly think that the state government of Florida gives two shits if you cancel your shitty concerts anyway? I love him as a comedian, he is a funny guy but to me his music is crap! Others joining this so called boycott are :

MARY - MARY, ROD STEWART , EDDIE LEVERT, MAZE/FRANKIE BEVERLY , PATTI LABELLE , PARLIAMENT/FUNKADELIC ,THE ROLLING STONES, MADONNA , ALISHIA KEYS, USHER, WILL.I.AM, R. KELLY , TREY SONGZ, RIHANA, ERYKAH BADU, MARY J. BLIGE , "JAY-Z" , "KANYE WEST", WALE' , YOUNG JEEZY, CHARLIE WILSON, JOE, JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE, CIARA, KELLY ROWLAND, KEYSHIA COLE


Now, here is my thought, some might agree, some may not but.... WHAT A BUNCH OF MORONS!!! Not only does the government NOT CARE that they are canceling but these people and others think they will hurt the already bad economy in Florida and cause the government to change their mind on the stand your ground law. SERIOUSLY? Your a special kind of stupid aren't you? Here is what else is wrong with their thinking. First a large percentage of the state of Florida population is....you guess it, ELDERLY! The first few on that list have their foot in the grave anyway, so Uh not really well thought out. Another thing is while the government does not give a crap that you are canceling, you didn't think about the people who work those venues did you? No, I am pretty sure that was not given a thought at all. So while your mad at the government, the young woman who has to work to support her children because her husband was killed protecting this country over seas will have one day less on her pay. That 18 year old boy who is working hard to get money saved for college so he can get out of his shitty neighborhood has one day less on his pay towards his goal. Their race? Does that really matter? They are human!

You are not punishing the Florida government, you are punishing the people who have to work in these places during the concerts. Where is this all coming from? The people who want to keep this going as a race war because they are raking in the money to keep this going. The media, The Reverend Al Sharpton and  The Reverend Jesse Jackson and a countless list who are not in this because they really believe in it, its because they want racism to keep going! Do you think Martin Luther King Jr would agree with what they are doing? No I don't think so. He wanted equality, he wanted peace and that has been sent to hell in a hand basket!



So Reverend Sharpton, Jackson, let me ask you this, do you think God would support what your doing? Do you think fanning the flames of racism is going to get you a spot in heaven? I thought that men of God were suppose to care for all people regardless of color? But do you see them supporting the mother of the 13 month old child Antonio Santiago, in Georgia who was shot and killed by the 2 teenagers that tried to rob her? Where is the outrage about the child dying? Did you even hear about it on the news? No you sure didn't. Did you hear of groups protesting the acquittal of Roderick Scott from Greece, NY? Nope sure didn't. Who is Roderick Scott? Never heard of him right? Pretty much the EXACT same thing that happened here in Florida with Zimmerman and Martin but the Roles were reversed, the victim was white and the shooter was black.

Mr. Scott confronted the victim Chris Cervini who he thought was up to no good stealing cars in the neighborhood, he claims that Cervini charged at him and he shot him in self defense killing the 17 year old. I remember this case from when I lived in NY. Was the trial covered on CNN? Was it followed everyday by all the news stations? No. Were there riots, protesting, national unrest? No.

Do you follow me yet? I could go on and on with all the crimes in this country, and its not just white on black, black on white, its hispanic on hispanic, black on black, white on white. Its all of the above and more. This will not end with boycotting, that will not solve anything at all. What will is education, people working together. Riots, boycotts, protesting....does this help anything, has it helped anything? No. Is the media guilty of fanning the flames of the race war? Yes, do they tell the truth? No they do not. Its been proven over and over again, and yet people still believe all the bull.

So where are the Reverends protesting for the countless crimes against other races? Where are the stars that are boycotting the states where the crimes against others are committed? It's not happening and it will not happen. So how will this all stop? Education by people that care! You want to be passionate about it? First educate your children, teach them not to be racist. Go into the crime ridden communities and teach these kids something. They are full of ALL RACES! Give these kids something to look forward to, teach them skills that will help them out in the world. Start in the communities that need the help, give them something to do other than join gangs like the the bloods, crips and the latin kings. Educate them on not killing each other first, then to not kill others.

By the way, are these stars, these artists getting out going into the communities to help? Are they working to educate kids on not being racist? How about their albums and their movies? How many on that list and others not mentioned have that same word that Paula Deen was crucified over? No and yet they want to cancel their appearances their concerts and its hurting no one but the people who need to work that day to support their families. Bravo! You just attributed your ignorance towards the problem and not the solution. STOP MAKING THIS ABOUT BLACK AND WHITE! Taking away gun right will not stop killing. What are they going to protest knives, alcohol? baseball bats, box cutters, tire irons, cars? All things used to kill someone.  But who am I? Just one voice!
