Democrat-controlled Media Smothering Truth About Our Murder Rates

February 13, 2013 by 13 Comments

Team Obama Squad Liberal Media SC Democrat controlled media smothering Truth About Our Murder Rates

When Jamie Foxx gleefully spoke about getting to “kill all the White people” in his latest film, it was ignored by the Leftist media the way parents ignore the babble of an angry three year old. To Liberals, blacks are tall children incapable of committing any wrongful act because their great, great grandparents were slaves.

This paternalistic attitude may have been necessary and defendable for actual slaves set free after the Civil War; but by the dawn of the 20th century, the grandchildren of black slaves were moving into the middle class in some parts of the country. Woodrow Wilson and W.E.B. Dubois changed that with lies and deceit and put Blacks back on their knees where they have been at the mercy of Democrats ever since.

With the election of Barack Obama, the attitude blacks have toward whites is changing again. The increase of black-on-white crime that is not being talked about by the white Democrat-controlled media is causing major problems. Whites are running away from America’s big cities, which are imploding – look at Detroit.

These cities are becoming hollow shells that are uninhabitable because blacks are killing whites in “retribution” for the miserable existence they endure living in cities controlled by Democrats.

The FBI’s National Crime Victimization Survey and The Department of Justice’s Uniform Crime Reports have released data that shows a rising criminal hostility toward whites among blacks.

The data is clear. Those who would ignore them or argue they are irrelevant must assume the burden of proof.

Blacks kill at a rate seven times higher than other races do. They are three times more apt to employ a handgun and twice as likely to use a knife in the commission of a crime.

For every black killed by a white, there are 39 whites killed by a black. Robberies are virtually all committed by blacks as the ratio of black robbers to white robbers is 136 to one.

In 2010, the ratio of blacks killing whites was over 2 to 1. While this is bad enough, when relative population size is factored in, the rate is stunning.

Blacks make up approximately 12.6% and whites make up 72.4% of our population. There are just .174 blacks for each white. This means blacks exceed their statistically expected murder rate by 388%.

Democrat John Conyers of Detroit has renewed the demand for reparations for years of slavery. These demands serve only to deflect the justifiable anger Blacks feel toward their modern-day slave masters in the Democrat Party and redirects it toward whites in general, whom the Democrats have written off as a voting constituency.

As a society, we can either face this problem or keep burying innocent people. We know what the Democrats want to do; but sadly, it seems that the Republicans are following them.

A Call To All Pastors

February 13, 2013 by 4 Comments

Cross SC A Call To All Pastors

Charlie Cook writes: “Don’t be surprised if the barometric pressure in Washington’s atmosphere and the blood pressures of many Beltway denizens shoot up this week. As emotional, important, and timely as the debates over immigration and gun control are, the increasing likelihood that budget sequestration will, in fact, kick in March 1 is just now starting to sink in.”

“Meanwhile, corporate CEOs are flying to Washington to hector Congress to deal with the budget problem. Some old-time Hill experts suggest that these captains of industry would accomplish more if they fanned out across the country in an attempt to build public support for compromise, because grassroots pressure would enable more members to go along with a deal. Members need air cover back home—support that business leaders could provide, rather than tiresome lectures in Washington press conferences and at photo ops.”

I agree; we should immediately begin the mobilization of pastors and pews to contact — read tongue-lash and rail against — local Congressman and U.S. Senators to decry the immoral debt being piled on our kids and grandkids because Congress lacks the guts to make hard, painful decisions and cut spending.

Os Guinness’ A Free People’s Suicide, page 24-26:

ALL ISSUES POINT TO FREEDOM Third, sustainable freedom is urgent for America because many of the crises facing the United States have a direct bearing on freedom. The debt crisis is the most obvious. The question “What kind of a people do you think you are?” has been raised savagely by the grand financial crisis of 2008 and the recession that followed it. These two events were of world significance because they created the first global crisis history that was caused principally by the United States, and they raise major questions for the republic.The first concerns the link between debt and freedom; the second concerns the mounting inequities between America’s super-rich and everyone else; and the third concerns the place of money in national life when more and more of politics is “up for sale” and the United States resembles a plutocracy as much as a democracy.

The blunt fact is that America’s grand promotion of debt-leveraged consumerism has stood Max Weber’s famous thesis about the rise of capitalism on its head. It has scorned the early-American stress of hard work, savings, and delayed gratification, and turned Americans into a nation of perpetual debtors who are now chided even by the Chinese and the Indians for their irresponsibility and “addiction to debt”. The chickens are now coming home to roost, though so far most warnings have been dismissed as Chicken Little alarmism and the spending goes on. The George W. Bush administration, for example, financed the Iraq War through loans held by the Chinese rather than through taxes shouldered by the generation that declared the war. And the Obama administration has plunged the country even deeper still. Indeed, as observed in light of the Iraq and Afghan wars, the tax cuts, the Wall Street bailouts, the stimulus packages and the new health care provisions, never has one generation spent so much of its children’s wealth in such a short period and with so little to show for it.

The Supreme Court removed the Bible from public schools in 1963 — by an 8-1 majority vote. Lone dissenting Justice Potter Stewart blasted: “It led not to true neutrality with respect to religion, but to the establishment of a religion of secularism.”

This “religion of secularism” has produced red ink as far as the eye can see, homosexuals praying at the Inauguration, tax-funded abortion, homosexual marriage in several States, Evangelicals held in contempt, and God expelled from the classrooms of America — and the public square.

Propagandists erasing Him from our nation’s history books are not our biggest problem. America’s public school children — babies — live in a war zone, the by-product of godless paganism and “an agnostic West.” Proselytized and tutored by these false gods, the arch-enemy of Biblical morality is A Free People’s Suicide: false gods that demand the whole man.

Where are the Men of Issachar? “From the tribe of Issachar, there were 200 leaders of the tribe with their relatives. All these men understood the signs of the times and knew the best course for Israel to take.” The biblical context speaks to politics.

There is good news, I suppose; at least we’ve removed the Ten Commandments (you might eyeball number 7) from our public schools — now being removed from our public buildings — as we worship the golden calves and false gods of “godless humanism”, “multiculturalism” and “political correctness”.

A note to the pulpits of America: this is “inexcusable, open, blatant, united idolatry”; sleep on.

“Righteousness exalts a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.”

If the glory of a nation lies in it’s righteousness — and not in its wealth or military might — Americans have boarded the wrong train.

“If you board the wrong train, it is no use running along the corridor in the other direction.” Pastor Dietrich Bonhoeffer.

Pastor Bonhoeffer — hung naked by a piano wire at one of the last commands of Adolf Hitler — knew a little bit about boarding the wrong train.

If the key to maintaining sustainable freedom is righteousness — the virtue that produced freedom — what is the greatest threat to freedom? Unrighteousness. America has left God. Christians, get on your knees.

The estimated 65-80 million Evangelical Christians in America must engage the culture through voter registration and get-out-the-vote.

WHAT PASTORS MUST DO

Bible-believing Christian pastors must prod their parishioners to engage the culture through being registered to vote and voting — 100% of each congregation is the objective. There is no such thing as a non-religious education — or a non-religious society — as someone’s values are going to reign supreme.

Christians must be salt and light in a decaying culture. The people doing this to our country must be removed from elected office and places of leadership. The Church of the Living God must be registered and vote — in every election — as sons and daughters of Jesus Christ.

“Politicians are actors performing a script that is written by the audience.” Russell Kirk

Former U.S. Congressman Bob McEwen adds: “The audience controls the stage.” Evangelicals don’t get it.

Will a Gideon or Rahab the Harlot please stand?

Christopher Dorner Isn’t Malcolm X 2.0

February 13, 2013 by 2 Comments

Malcolm X SC Christopher Dorner Isnt Malcolm X 2.0

Like many American Blacks, the late El Hajj Malik Shabazz (here after Malcolm X) made an impression upon me.

It’s through the lens of this impression that I now view the Christopher Dorner case.

Surprisingly to some, Dorner enjoys an active fan base of otherwise opposed progressives and constitutionalists who mutually mistrust police, especially the LAPD.

I could make the obligatory anti-LAPD statement; but suffice it to say, I too find them heavy-handed yet also recognize the hyper-violent opposition they face.

When poor people of all colors run wild in the streets, they prompt creation of municipal armies like this department to combat them.

Critics of his day (and now) accused Malcolm X of being a racist and proponent of violence.

To his credit, he always preached restraint and obeying the law, including using self-defense statutes- a stance, along with his White liberal critique, which endears him to numerous modern conservatives.

His quote “I don’t even call it violence when it’s in self-defense; I call it intelligence” could have been made by current conservative state legislators while drafting “Stand Your Ground” laws.

Unlike Malcolm X, Dorner chose as his first two victims folks not involved in his LAPD grievance. He allegedly gunned down an unarmed woman and man, not quite a Malcolm X move.

The silence from Dorner’s groupies is deafening over this gruesome issue. Condoning private brutality like this to oppose police brutality places them in the same league as Rodney King’s tormentors and the uniformed drug-dealing assassins of the Rampart Division scandal.

Even the police officers he shot (one of whom died) played no role in his termination from the department.

LAPD’s brutality and corruption are used to cloak a private variety as extra-legal retaliation.

Yet another non-Malcolm X stance.

His White liberal supporters must grin and bear it in the face of statements like this from his famous lecture titled “God’s Judgement of White America,” better known as his “The Chickens Come Home To Roost” speech:

The white liberal differs from the white conservative only in one way: the liberal is more deceitful than the conservative. The liberal is more hypocritical than the conservative. Both want power, but the white liberal is the one who has perfected the art of posing as the Negro’s friend and benefactor; and by winning the friendship, allegiance, and support of the Negro, the white liberal is able to use the Negro as a pawn or tool in this political “football game” that is constantly raging between the white liberals and white conservatives.

This December 4, 1963 presentation prompted the late Elijah Muhammad to suspend him from the Nation of Islam for describing the Kennedy assassination “as chickens coming home to roost.”

It also led to his leaving Black separatism for a more inclusive nationalism where he worked with anyone interested in human rights reform.

This included socialists and alarmed the US government to no small end as the heads of Soviet client states welcomed him with open arms overseas.

In the final analysis, Christopher Dorner is not Malcolm X 2.0. His violent response to injustice is at odds with the restraint and self-defense stance Malcolm X advocated.

Transcript: Rand Paul Gives Tea Party Response To State Of The Union

Rand Paul 4 SC Transcript: Rand Paul Gives Tea Party Response to State of the Union

“I speak to you tonight from Washington, D.C. The state of our economy is tenuous but our people remain the greatest example of freedom and prosperity the world has ever known.

People say America is exceptional. I agree,but it’s not the complexion of our skin or the twists in our DNA that make us unique. America is exceptional because we were founded upon the notion that everyone should be free to pursue life, liberty, and happiness.

For the first time in history, men and women were guaranteed a chance to succeed based NOT on who your parents were but on your own initiative and desire to work.
We are in danger, though, of forgetting what made us great. The President seems to think the country can continue to borrow $50,000 per second. The President believes that we should just squeeze more money out of those who are working.

The path we are on is not sustainable, but few in Congress or in this Administration seem to recognize that their actions are endangering the prosperity of this great nation.

Ronald Reagan said, government is not the answer to the problem, government is the problem.

Tonight, the President told the nation he disagrees. President Obama believes government is the solution: More government, more taxes, more debt.
What the President fails to grasp is that the American system that rewards hard work is what made America so prosperous.

What America needs is not Robin Hood but Adam Smith. In the year we won our independence, Adam Smith described what creates the Wealth of Nations.
He described a limited government that largely did not interfere with individuals and their pursuit of happiness.

All that we are, all that we wish to be is now threatened by the notion that you can have something for nothing, that you can have your cake and eat it too, that you can spend a trillion dollars every year that you don’t have.

I was elected to the Senate in 2010 by people worried about our country, worried about our kids and their future. I thought I knew how bad it was in Washington. But it is worse than I ever imagined.

Congress is debating the wrong things.

Every debate in Washington is about how much to increase spending – a little or a lot.

About how much to increase taxes – a little or a lot.

The President does a big “woe is me” over the $1.2 trillion sequester that he endorsed and signed into law. Some Republicans are joining him. Few people understand that the sequester doesn’t even cut any spending. It just slows the rate of growth. Even with the sequester, government will grow over $7 trillion over the next decade.

Only in Washington could an increase of $7 trillion in spending over a decade be called a cut.

So, what is the President’s answer? Over the past four years he has added over $6 trillion in new debt and may well do the same in a second term. What solutions does he offer? He takes entitlement reform off the table and seeks to squeeze more money out of the private sector.

He says he wants a balanced approach.

What the country really needs is a balanced budget.

Washington acts in a way that your family never could – they spend money they do not have, they borrow from future generations, and then they blame each other for never fixing the problem.

Tonight I urge you to demand a new course.

Demand Washington change their ways, or be sent home.

To begin with, we absolutely must pass a Balanced Budget Amendment to the Constitution!

The amendment must include strict tax and spending limitations.

Liberals complain that the budget can’t be balanced but if you cut just one penny from each dollar we currently spend, the budget would balance within six or seven years.

The Penny Plan has been crafted into a bill that millions of conservatives across the country support.

It is often said that there is not enough bipartisanship up here. That is not true. In fact, there is plenty.

Both parties have been guilty of spending too much, of protecting their sacred cows, of backroom deals in which everyone up here wins, but every taxpayer loses.

It is time for a new bipartisan consensus.

It is time Democrats admit that not every dollar spent on domestic programs is sacred. And it is time Republicans realize that military spending is not immune to waste and fraud.

Where would we cut spending; well, we could start with ending all foreign aid to countries that are burning our flag and chanting death to America.

The President could begin by stopping the F-16s and Abrams tanks being given to the radical Islamic government of Egypt.

Not only should the sequester stand, many pundits say the sequester really needs to be at least $4 trillion to avoid another downgrade of America’s credit rating.

Both parties will have to agree to cut, or we will never fix our fiscal mess.
Bipartisanship is not what is missing in Washington. Common sense is.

Trillion-dollar deficits hurt us all.

Printing more money to feed the never-ending appetite for spending hurts us all.
We pay higher prices every time we go to the supermarket or the gas pump. The value of the dollar shrinks with each new day.

Contrary to what the President claims, big government and debt are not a friend to the poor and the elderly. Big-government debt keeps the poor poor and saps the savings of the elderly.

This massive expansion of the debt destroys savings and steals the value of your wages.

Big government makes it more expensive to put food on the table. Big government is not your friend. The President offers you free stuff but his policies keep you poor.

Under President Obama, the ranks of America’s poor swelled to almost 1 in 6 people last year, reaching a new high as long-term unemployment left millions of Americans struggling and out of work.

The cycle must be broken.

The willpower to do this will not come from Congress. It must come from the American people.

Next month, I will propose a five-year balanced budget, a budget that last year was endorsed by taxpayer groups across the country for its boldness, and for actually solving the problem.

I will work with anyone on either side of the aisle who wants to cut spending.
But in recent years, there has been no one to work with.

The President’s massive tax hikes and spending increases have caused his budgets to get ZERO votes in both houses of Congress. Not a single Democrat voted for the President’s budget!

But at least he tried.

Senate Democrats have not even produced a budget in the time I have been in office, a shameful display of incompetence that illustrates their lack of seriousness.

This year, they say they will have a budget, but after just recently imposing hundreds of billions in new taxes, they now say they will include more tax hikes in their budget.

We must stand firm. We must say NO to any MORE tax hikes!

Only through lower taxes, less regulation and more freedom will the economy begin to grow again.

Our party is the party of growth, jobs and prosperity, and we will boldly lead on these issues.

Under the Obama economy, 12 million people are out of work. During the President’s first term 800,000 construction workers lost their jobs and another 800,000 simply gave up on looking for work.

With my five-year budget, millions of jobs would be created by cutting the corporate income tax in half, by creating a flat personal income tax of 17%, and by cutting the regulations that are strangling American businesses.

The only stimulus ever proven to work is leaving more money in the hands of those who earned it!

For those who are struggling we want to you to have something infinitely more valuable than a free phone, we want you to have a job and pathway to success.
We are the party that embraces hard work and ingenuity, therefore we must be the party that embraces the immigrant who wants to come to America for a better future.

We must be the party who sees immigrants as assets, not liabilities.
We must be the party that says, “If you want to work, if you want to become an American, we welcome you.”

For those striving to climb the ladder of success we must fix our schools.
America’s educational system is leaving behind anyone who starts with disadvantages.

We have cut classroom size in half and tripled spending on education and still we lag behind much of the world.

A great education needs to be available for everyone, whether you live on country club lane or in government housing.

This will only happen when we allow school choice for everyone, rich or poor, white, brown, or black.

Let the taxes you pay for education follow each and every student to the school of your choice.

Competition has made America the richest nation in history. Competition can make our educational system the envy of the world.

The status quo traps poor children in a crumbling system of hopelessness.

When every child can, like the President’s kids, go to the school of their choice, then will the dreams of our children come true!

Washington could also use a good dose of transparency, which is why we should fight back against middle of the night deals that end with massive bills no one has read.

We must continue to fight for legislation that forces Congress to read the bills!

We must continue to object when Congress sticks special interest riders on bills in the dead of night!

And if Congress refuses to obey its own rules, if Congress refuses to pass a budget, if Congress refuses to read the bills, then I say:

Sweep the place clean. Limit their terms and send them home!

I have seen the inner sanctum of Congress and believe me there is no monopoly on knowledge there.

If they will not listen, if they will not balance the budget, then we should limit their terms.

We are the party that adheres to the Constitution. We will not let the liberals tread on the Second Amendment!

We will fight to defend the entire Bill of Rights from the right to trial by jury to the right to be free from unlawful searches.

We will stand up against excessive government power wherever we see it.

We cannot and will not allow any President to act as if he were a king.

We will not let any President use executive orders to impinge on the Second Amendment.

We will not tolerate secret lists of American citizens who can be killed without trial.

Montesquieu wrote that there can be no liberty when the executive branch and the legislative branch are combined. Separation of powers is a bedrock principle of our Constitution.

We took the President to court over his unconstitutional recess appointments and won.

If necessary, we will take him to court again if he attempts to legislate by executive order.

Congress must reassert its authority as the protector of these rights, and stand up for them, no matter which party is in power.

Congress must stand as a check to the power of the executive, and it must stand as it was intended, as the voice of the people.

The people are crying out for change. They are asking for us to hear their voices, to fix our broken system, to right our economy and to restore their liberty.

Let us tonight let them know that we hear their voices. That we can and must work together, that we can and must re-chart our course toward a better future.

America has much greatness left in her. We will begin to thrive again when we begin to believe in ourselves again, when we regain our respect for our founding documents, when we balance our budget, when we understand that capitalism and free markets and free individuals are what creates our nation’s prosperity.

Thank you and God Bless America.”

Armed Citizens Get Their 2nd Amendment Point Across

February 12, 2013 by 12 Comments

second amendment SC Armed citizens get their 2nd Amendment point across

“All political power is inherent in the people, and governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, and are established to protect and maintain individual rights.” This language from the Washington State Constitution failed to impress one city councilman from Oak Harbor as he demonstrated the petulance inherent in liberals by walking out of a January council meeting because one of the attending citizens was legally armed.

At issue was a 2009 lawsuit filed by the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) against the City Of Seattle for having broken state law by placing a ban on the carrying of firearms in city parks.  A 3 decade old Washington State Preemption Law makes it illegal for jurisdictions within the state to pass any ordinance that conflicts with state law. As the State of Washington declares it legal to carry weapons in state parks, the Seattle ordinance against that law is illegal and therefore unenforceable. Such was the ruling both in state court and the District 1 Court of Appeals!

But when the SAF informed the City of Oak Harbor that its own ban on guns in area parks was also in violation of the Preemption Law, city councilman Rick Almberg decided that peevish behavior was somehow his right and should take precedence over the law and the rights of Oak Harbor residents.

Testifying before the Council against the Oak Harbor ban, private citizen Lucas Yonkman agreed to answer Almberg when the councilman asked if the disabled Afghanistan Veteran was armed. Upon responding that he had both a handgun and a license to carry a concealed weapon, Councilman Almberg immediately made a motion that weapons be banned at council meetings. When that failed, Almberg promptly picked up his belongings and left the room.

But when the next City Council meeting took place in early February, “…a group of 160 citizens, many if not most of whom were armed…” crowded the council chambers, voicing support for Lucas Yonkman and demanding “…that the council rescind [the] local ordinance prohibiting guns from being carried on public property.”

One armed citizen attending the meeting offered a pointed statement when he told the council, “…if the fact that citizens who are merely exercising their right to keep and bear arms intimidates city officials, then they need to look within to determine why the rights of the people are so intimidating to them.” Indeed, this question should be put not only to council members in Oak Harbor, Washington, but to politicians in D.C and throughout the nation.

Two hundred years ago, Thomas Jefferson offered the famous statement, “When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government there is tyranny.” Whether the City Council of Oak Harbor was or was not intimidated by the armed citizens they were elected to serve, “the council voted to remove the ban on guns in public parks and other public areas.”

Americans must make it known to liberal politicians that neither churlish behavior nor unconstitutional legislation will intimidate citizens into relinquishing their God given rights. If that message must be delivered by armed envoys, so be it. After all, when elected officials uphold the rights of the American people, it is a good thing, regardless of the means employed to make them do so.
