Murder In A Black Church In 2015

I'm not surpised.

Are you surprised?

First of all, my sincere condolences to all of the people who were impacted by this Racist Attack on a place of worship again.

I know how it feels to lose people that mean the most to us in life.

I would ask that no one bury their heads in the sand and make pretend that this and every other Racists, Hateful Act that has occurred against the African American Community as well as those that have occurred in other Minority Communities be ignored.

I also ask that after your mourning period is over that you do not forget or ignore what is really behind this Hateful Act-RACISM.

I don't know how many more people need to be Murdered or Slaughtered before we drop this Stupid Myth of a "Post Racial Society" where Racism does not exist because we have a Black President.

Has anyone really paid attention to how the people who are supposed to be on the same side, (the side of America), have treated this once well respected office since Barack Obama became president in 2008?

Today's incident is another manifestation of the Hatred, Racism, Ignorance and Fear that those who have bathed themselves in White Privilege for so long, that they now believe that if this privilege becomes obsolete, they will no longer be able to grow and prosper.

Or in other words: We won't be on top anymore, we won't be the boss, we won't control all the wealth, we won't control all the power-We'll have to share it all with them.

This is another incident created by a person who wants to maintain the Illusion of White Supremacy so bad that they are terrified to let it go.

To paraphrase: You people are raping our women and taking our country over.

I have said time and time again: If the leaders in our Government are allowed to project this kind of Hatred towards the First African American President, while we sit silently in denial; don't you think that this type of Apathy Co-signs this type of behavior by Dylann Roof and far too many more who are still polluting this nation with hate?

I would think that by now we would have enough people who know, and are responding to the fact that doing nothing is an Inadequate Response to Hatred, Racism, Greed and Violence.

Senator, James E. Clyburn, South Carolina, spoke so powerfully and eloquently today in response to this attack on this black church that killed 9 people.

Basically, he said what I have been saying all the long: If those who are good, watch evil without responding to it, then they are in effect part of that evil.

So I am asking everyone who may be reading this, (as I do after other violent incidents of this nature); please don't make pretend that this evil does not exist.

Now I know that you cannot do anything alone about all the evil that is present in this country, but you can become part of a movement that is already set up, organized and experienced in creating Positive Change for all concerned.

Its not about Black or White.

Its about Wrong or Right.

And no! I am not leaving without being Political.

First of all, I want to know how White People like this who commit such Violent Acts against Innocent People are taking into custody without being murdered.

And along those same lines of thought, there are 2 Violent Escaped Convicts who have been on the run for several weeks now. They committed Violent Crimes such as Murder and Rape; and I am curious to see if the Police will be able to take them into custody without Beating, Shooting or Killing them.

So my question is: How can Policeman take guys like this to jail and keep them alive to stand trial, when Black People or other Minority Members, who are already Subdued and In Custody get killed?

And in keeping with the spirit of not ignoring the evil that exist in this country by not making pretend; I want to point out the fact that South Carolina Governor, Nikki Haley's Speech did nothing to Move me or Convince me that her words and fake tears were genuine.

Because Governor Haley is part of the Right Wing Hate Movement in America that encourages these kinds of attacks against African Americans, Immigrants, (she is an Immigrant herself); and Members of other Minority Groups.

I refuse to make pretend because of this tragedy, that I don't remember her words and deeds from the past in reference to Immigration, Poor People, Minorities and African Americans.

Her Republican Party, along with Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Bill O'Reilly and far too many other Right Wing Hate Mongers, (who have one main home where they can find love and support); (FOX News), support and encourage these kinds of acts against people whose Religions, Income Levels, Sexual Preferences and Skin Colors are different from theirs.

Governor: Your speech was full of Hypocrisy.

G.R.C.
