GET OVER IT!

I don't post much on the subject of racism in America because I don't believe it really is a problem. If blacks don't have opportunities in America, then how do you explain the success of so many black Americans such as Oprah, Dr Ben Carson, all your black entertainers, actors, musicians, athletes and people like Candace Owen, who is black herself and does a great job of telling the black community to stop crying about racism because they live in the greatest country in the world when it comes to opportunities for blacks. 

To me, the racism card is just an excuse for black people to feel better about their own failures. They want something to blame, so they cry about white supremacy holding them back and oppressing them. If America is so oppressive to blacks, then why are so many blacks trying to cross our borders and get into our country? Name one country that offers them more opportunities and a better life. If you can think of one, perhaps you should pack your bags instead of wallowing in your river of tears here. 

And the George Floyd incident... that was a bad decision by one man who is white. I could name some black men who made bad decisions that resulted in a white person's death. But when that happens, we don't riot, loot and burn buildings. We accept that the world is filled with messed up people that come in all colors.  

Do you know that more blacks are killed by blacks than there are blacks killed by white people? Yes, that is a fact. But you won't hear that statistic on the fake news. Because the left wants to promote racism. My advice to blacks who want to cry about their unfair treatment is to put that whining energy into doing something to make life better for yourselves. We all have struggles in life. And we are really tired of hearing about your obstacles. Life isn't fair for anyone.

I have been treated unfairly and abused by white people too. I was fired by a white woman for an unjust reason. I've been verbally abused by both white men and women. I was physically abused by white men too. But I see no point in ranting or rioting about it. The best thing I can do for myself is carry on. By crying about it and dwelling on it, I would give all those bad people the power to keep hurting me. It takes strength and character to accept the hard knocks of life without becoming bitter. 

What people really need to do is find their strength and work on their character. The world doesn't owe you anything. You are here to contribute something to the world. Complaining about how unfair life has treated you isn't much of a contribution. What good does it do? How does it help you? How does it help anyone?
