@Old Crow Nobo – Let me offer you a slightly different perspective. I don’t believe the majority of Trump’s supporters (including me) object to the Civil rights laws but many of us Detest affirmative action and racial preferences that favor less qualified candidates in the name of making up for a wrong that occurred 150 years ago.
Trump is tapping into that frustration. And before you tell me that we have to make up for the racism that occurred afterward let me remind you that many Irish Immigrants came at the turn of the century and still managed to build up a self sufficient life for themselves in one or two generations. Chinese and Korean immigrants move into poor neighborhoods and work hard to build a life for their children and in one generation – maybe two you have prosperous families.
And yet the African American communities continue to claim that their kids need special treatment because of the unfairness that occurred in the 1800’s. And they want those special privileges at the expense of college kids like my sons and daughters. Because those communities are unwilling or unable to examine the corrosive and self-destructive facets of their own culture they blame everyone else for their problems – And we are sick and tired of it.
Rosa Parks wasn’t asking for special treatment – She was asking for Equal treatment and she deserved that. The Angry protesters in Chicago know that they are going to be kicked off the gravy train if Trump gets into power and they aren’t afraid to use violence to keep their gubermint checks coming in.
