These are My thoughts on America, racism, institutional racism, and widespread racial hatred for women, Black people, and minorities, gay people, etc. A few minutes ago, I heard about another internet blog created to insult Senator Obama.There are many groups of people that have always hated Black people and people of color,and I am fairly sure there will ALWAYS be people that hate others for a variety of reasons. One of my new causes, is to start telling people to get used to and accept the stream of NEVER ending racial slurs, hate speech, insults, hate groups, that will begin becoming extremely active. My theory is that when Senator Obama becomes President, blind hatred will certainly increase, and some of the nastiest, evilest bigots will have a reason to live.I can picture an aging klansman near death that is dying, and the thought of a Black President causes him to jump out of bed with the vigor of a teenager. Expect it people, expect it.These groups will be proliferating, resurrected and will be emerging with a vengeance.My question to you is, are you really surprised?
Seriously, is anyone really surprised? I will not let these hate groups, ignorant maladjusted, vile, evil and disgusting hate mongers ruin Senator Obama's Presidency.I was walking around thinking that for many, this will NEVER end.There will be people 200 years from now, that will still be saying evil, nasty and racist inflammatory statements about our soon to be President Obama.
If you feel you must even respond to some forms of the attacks and hate groups, please do, but don't it allow you to ruin your joy or run your blood pressure up. I am fully expecting an onslaught of evil and nasty images to emerge that may cause many of us to cry, gasp, and always shake our heads. Let me say it again, the hate groups are already here, many will be started and there will be many people whose sole purpose in life will be to spread their hatred of Black people, minorities and especially Senator Obama. Racism has always existed throughout the world, it always will exist to varying degrees.I would expect an onslaught of similar attacks when we elect a woman, any minority, especially Hispanics, Asians, middle easterner's or a Jewish president.Believe me if anyone from the above groups is ever elected President, the racial hatred and remarks will not be pretty.
Can you imagine the insults on a gay or Jewish President?....shuddering....
Time to step down from my soapbox now.I am thrilled, ecstatic, pleased and proud to see that Senator Obama will probably be our next President. I never thought I would live to see a Black person elected President.This is a reflection on how far Black people have come in America.From being brought here as slaves-----> to electing a Black President in less than 150 years. On the same token, I am voting for Senator Obama, NOT because of his skin color, but because of the person that he is.When Senator Obama is elected, he will be elected because of who he is and not because of the color of his skin.
There will be many among us, that only live to disparage, demean and degrade Senator Obama. Don't let the soon to be widespread and very organized hate groups, hate mongers, evil and racist people of the world steal your joy!
I am proud to be an American, and I would not want to have been born or live anywhere else in the world.
That said, racism exists everywhere in the world, and that will probably NEVER change.
Peace
I agree with your general feelings regarding groups and individuals that are, and will continue to be racisst, intolereant of others religious beliefs, sexual orientation, or gender discrimination. With respect to Obama, I think you can relax...he is not in the Oval Office yet..and possibly americans will remember what this country is all about, and it isn't to turn our lives over to Big Brother. It's going to be close...but we should still have a country on Wednesday...with all its warts and scabs.
