You did not see this on the evening news!

I received this email recently, and thought I'd pass it along:

“YOU DID NOT SEE THIS ON THE EVENING NEWS!!!

WHERE WERE THE LOCAL POLICE ?

WHERE WERE THE STATE POLICE ?

WHERE WAS THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT ?

WHERE WERE A WHOLE LOT OF ANGRY AMERICAN PEOPLE?

AND FINALLY, WHY DOESN'T SOMEONE IN SOUTH CAROLINA GET THE BALL ROLLING TO REVOKE THE CHARTER ISSUED BY THE STATE TO THE S.C. NAACP AND FILE LEGAL SUIT AGAINST THE PEOPLE IN CHARGE OF THE NAACP AND DEMAND A NATIONAL PUBLIC APOLOGY FOR DISRESPECTING THE FATHER OF THIS COUNTRY AND OUR FIRST PRESIDENT?

ALL THEY DO IS CARRY ON ENDLESSLY ABOUT BEING DISRESPECTED WHILE DOING EXACTLY THAT TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE - PREDOMINANTLY, THE WHITE RACE.

ONE WAY STREETS DON'T WORK WELL.

 
George Washington statue is hidden at the MLK rally in Columbia, S.C.

The annual MLK observance at the state house in Columbia, S.C. had an interesting twist this year. The event is held on the north side steps of the statehouse.

Prominent at that location is a large bronze statue of George Washington.

This year, the NAACP constructed a "box" to conceal the father of our country from view so that participants would not be 'offended' by his presence.

I could hardly believe my eyes when I saw this picture of the MLK Day rally in Columbia, South Carolina yesterday. This rally was sponsored by the NAACP and they said that they covered the statue because they "didn't want to offend anyone".

Really? George Washington is the father of this nation.

How is he offensive to anyone? Can you imagine what would happen if we covered the statue of Dr. Martin L. King on MLK Day?

Or is only the statue of a 'white guy' offensive ??

Of course, this display of anti-Americanism wasn't covered at all by the national media (surprise, surprise !!), and the local paper in Columbia only ran a short piece on it. It has been covered a little by the blog-world but the general public needs to be aware that this is what the NAACP is all about...representing itself as militant and (most definitely) racist.”

Yes, George Washington may have kept slaves- However, that was not uncommon in his day- anymore than taking a switch to a child's behind was uncommon at that time.

We have changed many things since that time, and many apologies and amends have been made since that time.

Americans, on the whole, are not racist, and this nation has been, and continues to be, the 'Melting Pot', welcoming all peoples for hundreds of years now.

This is a land of free choice, and those who do not like it here, for whatever reason, have the choice to leave and find a place that is more suitable to their liking.
