    “Accuse others of what you do.” – Karl Marx

    Clad in military attire, New Black Panther bullies used weapons, racial insults and profanity to deter voters, and federal prosecutors in response filed a civil complaint in Philadelphia. However, the case was mysteriously and abruptly killed by a top Justice Department official just as a federal judge was preparing to punish the Black Panthers for ignoring the charges and refusing to appear in court.

    While the mainstream news media lambasted the Tea Partiers with accusations of racism, violence, hatred and other transgressions, these same reporters and pundits routinely turn a blind eye towards the violence perpetrated by liberal-left “activists.”

    Routinely, Americans are spoon-fed allegations of Republicans attempting to disenfranchise Democrat voters, but in reality it is usually groups of activists who are allied with Democrats — ACORN, New Black Panthers, SEIU, etc. — discovered to be involved in using brutish tactics or corruption on behalf of their chosen politicos.

    Up through the 1950's every large city had a red light district that was run by the police. no one had to go there but those who did were not the types to worry about constitutional rights. The police were trusted to take an occasional cheap shot and very seldom assaulted the wrong person.

    These days the police are mostly squeaky clean but the inner city population is not governable under the constitution. Our constitution was designed for nominal Christians who wanted to be good neighbors.

    There is coming a day of justice and judgement upon those who die in their wickedness.... and, for some, it may even visit them here as the natural consequence of their own actions and perversions. For those who would pervert justice and teach or coerce others to do so... I tremble to think....... God will not be patient forever upon those who thumb their nose at Him, who bear their own accountability and have the means or position to choose right but choose self interest and pleasure and pervert justice and wrong others instead.

    I'd rather have nothing in this life to bring pleasure.... and be a child of the King, than to own all the world with its pleasures and enticements and be eternally damned.

    Those who desire positions of leadership need to be warned by those of faith what an awesome undertaking of accountability they face before Almighty God. What an awesome accountability each one of us faces if we haven't the righteousness of the Lamb to cover and blot out our sin!

    Pray that God will strike the heart of some in this New Black Panther movement with conviction and raise up a minister and a 'prophet' to the people who have followed, that they will turn and listen and turn from the evil they now serve.

    White trash is the worst kind and the least civilized . . . because they think they are superior to other poor people.

    So the inner city is populated by poor white people?

    Is that what you are saying?

    And if you are - isn't that a broad brush that you are using?

    All inner cities are populated by poor white people?

    Or even the majority of inner cities are?

    What is the basis for your statement?

    Why Is Violence in American Politics Increasing ?

    People that are normally quiet and roll with the flow are fed up and starting to speak up.

    The normally loudmouthed liberal activists don't like being challenged and beat at their own game, so they resort to violence.
