When is the individual accountable for their bad behavior?

 

So.... at what point is the individual responsible for their own circumstances? At what point is it ok to hold a person accountable  for their actions?

For example; if a woman gets knocked up by a guy she has only known for two weeks, knowing that neither of them have jobs and that he has four babies by three other women, why should anyone else have to be a part of their equation in the form of being taxed to death to support the woman and child?

At what point do we say, YOU screwed up, not me? And at what point do we stop rewarding woman who drop babies like candy from a pez dispenser with welfare checks, WIC, free housing, free medical care, free daycare and free everything else when they clearly chose not to take advantage of free birth control?

And why do so many CONTINUE to support the behavior and entitlements that have rendered a large number of blacks as underclass citizens and in need of  government assistance (generational) for the last 60-70 years (by design… by democrats).

Let’s take the “gentleman” that has fathered THIRTY kids… if these children will end up being financial burdens on the state (taxpayers), why shouldn’t the state also have the right to sterilize men (or women) like him after the fifth kid? Tenth kid? Twentieth kid?  Why are men AND women simply allowed to procreate irresponsibly and then expect taxpayers to support their children.  When is enough really enough? Why do these people get to behave badly without consequences for their actions?!!

Shouldn’t there be some deterrents in place for this incredibly poor behavior and reckless regard for the welfare of the children they are producing? What are we waiting for… a 100 percent illegitimacy rate for blacks? We are already at 72 percent.  Do we let the white illegitimacy rate get to 72% before we say…. ummmm…. perhaps we should do something?

And for the foolish…. abortion is not the answer. That solution makes the individual even more callous and despicable.  Just throwing this in here because I know some mentally crippled person will use abortion as an argument for this issue.

Women:  have more respect for yourself. My goodness… how does a woman CHOOSE to be the third or fourth woman or even the THIRTIETH woman to “spread ‘en”  for a worthless seed dropper?  Take charge and create your own life circumstances by WAITING for a man that is willing to make you his wife instead of  a semen receptacle.  There is NOTHING cute about this behavior! 

And many of the fifty percent of citizens who pay taxes to support the non  tax payers that are guilty of this bad behavior (they usually end up paying no taxes, but get fat tax refunds)  are broke too. They can no longer afford to carry you…. and are just plain tired of you.

But, but… this is common sense!

 

The state of Georgia  has recently passed a law that would require welfare recipients to be drug tested. Apparently, Republicans were for the law and Democrats were against it. One question: Why would Democrats be against such a common sense measure?  Are they playing political games again and trying to appeal to the welfare crowd in hopes of keeping and expanding a voting bloc?

Isn’t it common sense to ensure that tax dollars are not being wasted on crack, meth, marijuana or other drugs?  After all, citizens are paying taxes out the wazoo to support the entitlement crowd. Why not make sure that whoever is receiving benefits are not using it to buy drugs?

Many working  in the private sector are drug tested all the time, so why treat welfare recipients differently? 

Democrats state that this requirement would cause a burden to the recipients. The law will require recipients to pay for the test which runs $30.00 to $35.00, but if the test returns negative, then the recipient would be reimbursed with their first benefit check.  Since the recipient is being reimbursed, no burden is created in actuality.  And of course, Democrats are also using their typical rhetoric by claiming that Republicans are simply trying to “bash the poor”.

A similar bill was passed by the state of Florida, but of course the ACLU stepped in on behalf of a recipient that refused the testing. The Florida law has now been put on hold by a federal judge because it supposedly violates the Fourth Amendment: unreasonable search and seizure. 

When did welfare become a right under the Constitution? And if the practice of drug testing is constitutional for the private sector employee, why wouldn’t  it be for a welfare recipient?  After all, those private sector employees are footing the bill for the welfare recipient.

We don’t see such a fuss over drug testing in the private sector simply because people prefer to work.  And if one isn’t doing drugs, what’s the big deal?

I’m glad states are beginning to clamp down, or are at least trying to. The next step should be implementing strict oversight to tackle welfare fraud.

It’s time the feds let states govern themselves and stop using the Constitution to block things that are indeed  constitutional, but simply not liked by Democrats. It seems the only time Democrats  actually care about the Constitution is when they try to use it wrongly through their political games.

What We Have Become

 

We have gone from fighting for our freedom to giving it up to be controlled by the government; specifically, the political party that enslaved and murdered our ancestors.

We have gone from working hard to achieve success regardless of our circumstance,  to using our circumstance as an excuse to not work hard.

We have gone from striving for self sufficiency to being content with and dependent on governmental insufficiency.

We have gone from fighting to keep our families together to willfully creating life for a financial pittance handed to us by the government.

We have gone from fighting and literally dying to be educated, to allowing our children to drop out of school and enter prison at astronomical rates.

We have gone from believing in God or being true to our faith, to believing in and putting our faith in a political party, specifically the one that has and still is committing atrocities against our race.

We have gone from fighting for equal rights to accepting special rights, as if we are incapable of competing based on our own intellectual abilities.

We have become confortable in using slavery as an excuse to do nothing.

We have become comfortable wallowing in a perpetual state of victimhood.

We have become comfortable with excusing away our bad and barbaric behavior, often finding a way to invoke racism, instead of holding people accountable for their actions.

We have embraced a secular culture that is antithetical to our Christian beliefs and as a result, we have lost the ability to be ashamed of our actions. 

What we need to do now is focus on our youth. We need to reintroduce shame, especially in an era of all of these “this and that housewife” shows;  few male role models in the home, and secular churches. 

If we don’t focus on our youth enough  to at least plant the seeds of what decency and morality really is; or to show them how to think critically, I’ll  hate to see what we will become as a nation in the next 20 – 30 years.

Stop Tail-Tucking and Ditching Candidates!

 

Now that Rick Santorum is rising in the polls, and since he just rose from  political murk to land a very taut second place finish in the Iowa Caucasus,  the slander and smear machines are already cranking up to start tearing him down. Seems the moment a candidate becomes a blip on the political radar, they become targets.  I knew it wouldn’t take long before the mud started to fly, but now I’m  wondering just how fast it will take Republicans to tuck their tails and run from the controversy and accusations that are inevitable.

It doesn’t seem to matter if accusations are factual or fabricated. Many Republicans will quickly, and undoubtedly scurry off the scene when the going gets tough.  Ask Herman Cain about that.

Liberals know good and well that all they have to do is call the GOP candidate a racist, a homophobe or in Cain’s case, a sex crazed womanizer, and not only will the candidate usually cave, but so will their supporters… with supporters usually being the first to throw in the towel!  It seems we have not learned to hang in there when the going gets tough. I hate to say it, but we can learn a lot from Liberals when it comes to selecting a candidate, and sticking with them through thick or thin. If Obama had raped a toddler in a public square, liberal pundits would have spun the event successfully before Obama zipped his pants up. The voters, media,  and all other Obama supporters would stick by him, and defend him to the bitter end.

I am in NO WAY suggesting that we should support ANY candidate under ANY circumstance. We must always be moral and prudent when choosing candidates for any office, but we should always have PROOF before we start dropping our candidates faster than a pimp drops a useless hoe. Dirty tactics will be employed by the masters of the game… expect it and be ready and most importantly, wait for the facts and demand proof of wrongdoing!

To give you an example of what the dirty Left is capable of, check out what was said about Santorum and how he handled the death of his baby boy, Gabriel. Gabriel was born in 1996, but died shortly after birth.  The Santorums took their deceased baby home with them to make him  a  reality for their other children and to give him a funeral.  Well, Lefty talk show host Alan Colmes stated that Santorum’s popularity would end once people realized some of the crazy things he has said and done. Colmes went on to discuss the 1996 death of  little Gabriel this way…..

“once they get a load of some of the crazy things he’s said and done, like taking his two-hour-old baby who died right after childbirth home and played with it for a couple hours so his other children would know that the child was real…”

Vile words, said in a vile context and with a vile intent, don’t you think?  But I suppose honoring  Gabriel and treating him like a part of the family (which he was) would be crazy to someone who supports killing babies by ripping them out of  the mother’s womb. There’s certainly much, much more to come from the morally destitute Lefties. Don’t believe me? Check out this video of Santorum making a “racist” comment:

Not everything is racism…. please apply critical thinking!

 I realize that the GOP candidates not only run against their liberal opponents, but they are also fighting a liberal media, and the smear-mongers. Let’s not make them fight for our support as well.   When things start heating up, and we know they will because “dung is slung” from both sides of the aisle these days, (ask Newt Gingrich about that),  hang in there until there is  irrefutable proof of wrongdoing, or until it’s clear that the candidate is simply being targeted for a political smack down. 

In other words folks, don’t tuck your tails between your legs and run like wimpy little puppies anymore.  We’re in a fight here!  We know the swamp gates will be opened, so brace yourselves for the onslaught, but remain strong.

To get the inescapable smear campaign started, I will use a joke that I stole from my friend Mark Forsland:  “Breaking news...... Rick Santorum had an affair with Herman Cain when he was a delivery boy for Godfather's Pizza.”  And…. we’re….OFF!!!!!

The Disadvantaged Wear $180.00 Shoes?

 

Last week, we witnessed people vandalizing property, fighting each other, stabbing each other, stampeding over each other, being tear gassed, and being arrested….at malls from coast to coast. Police even had to rescue two toddlers from a car after they were abandoned by their $200.00 shoe hunting mother! All of this chaos for a pair of shoes! Not just any old shoes… THE NEW AIR JORDANS!! I’m clutching my chest and gasping wildly (mocking the excited consumers of course).

What about the behavior these people displayed? Wow! They looked like wild animals trying to avoid recapture. Trampling what appeared to be children did not cause anyone to pause to help their fellow man. Getting a pair of those shoes was paramount and preserving life apparently was not on any person’s list of priorities.

Did you happen to checkout the makeup of the crowds that was shown on the news? A whole lot of Black folk were out there. We are in a recession, and nationally, unemployment amongst Blacks is greater that 16%. So, what’s really going on? How are these poor, disadvantaged Black folk able to afford $200.00 for a pair of freakin sneakers?  I will get back to this question, so allow me to digress for a moment.

Since this "incident” made national news, of course, the scavenger community leaders (misleaders) smelled the fresh blood of opportunity. Publicity! Black and Hispanic community leaders (misleaders) held a news conference where they basically blamed Michael Jordan and Nike for the ruckus. These “leaders” stated that “those who can least afford the shoes are the ones buying them”….huh??!! If you can’t afford them, don’t buy them. They went on to say “Michael Jordan and Nike should stand up and be a part of the solution”, and “there are public safety issues with children wearing these shoes”. These community folks felt that Nike should lower the prices of the shoes, meet customer demand and that wearing the shoes only causes more crime.

So, make more shoes and sell them cheaper….LOL. I wonder how many businesses have either of those fools ran. They fail to realize that the consumers of these shoes buy them because of the prestige that they (the consumers) have placed on them.

Hey leaders…. mind your own damn business! How about that? As usual, you have no real solutions. You just saw an opportunity to get your mugs on TV. Stop treating Black people as if they are special needs. What you should be focusing on is what’s causing certain mentalities in Black communities. Focus on that and you will see that Nike and Jordan are far from the problem.

And just where are these children getting the money to buy these shoes anyway? I assume it’s from their parents (parent for 70% of them). Who is giving permission to these children to stand in line all night to be first in line to buy the darn shoes? I’m guessing the parents (or parent). Why would parents (or parent) allow their children to wear something that could cause them their lives in certain neighborhoods?

I’m guessing that most of the youth buying these shoes don’t work, don’t know the value of a dollar, do not live in a two parent home and have not had certain values instilled into their psyches. This feral behavior is just a symptom of the breakdown of the family. That’s the core issue… breakdown of the nuclear family. Unless Michael Jordan or Nike are the fathers to all of these kids, the bullseye target can be removed from their backs. As for the adults who bought the shoes…. it’s their damn money!

Back to how can poor and disadvantaged people afford to pay so much for a pair of shoes! Are we seeing a hint that Blacks aren’t as bad off as those on the Left would have you believe? Probably. Liberals love to have victims, even when there are none. I’m sure that there are lots of Black folk that really can’t afford the shoes, but did you see those crowds??!! 

Not many people I know who are working everyday have $200.00 to go plop down on a pair of shoes!

I only hope that no tax dollars were abused during the purchasing of Air Jordans! Hey… who am I kidding! Of course welfare money bought some of those Jordans… duh!

The Power of Women

        I’m not quite sure what some of us women have devolved into, but I do know that it‘s anything but good. It seems that meeting someone, courting them (remember that word…courting) and getting to know them well enough to determine compatibility is a thing of the past. I find that reality to be incredibly sad. Today, it’s all about hook-ups, gettin’ wit’ someone or smashin’. I’m baffled at the ease that most women will give up their bodies to men that are so unworthy of them or that they barely know. Women have either forgotten the scope of their power or they have never realized it.
        The power of women is unimaginable. We have the ability to create the atmosphere in our homes and to create the environment of our neighborhoods, and ultimately, to an extent, we create the atmosphere in our communities and our nation. Our role in this world is incredible, but sadly, we have allowed too many influences such as feminism and liberalism to lead us away from God’s design for relationships and marriage. These influences have left us severely misguided.
        Those most affected by this misguidance are Black women. In 1960, only 28 percent of black females between the ages of 15 and 44 were never married. Today, that number is approaching 70%. In 1940, the illegitimacy rate among blacks was 19 percent; in 1960 it was 22 percent, and today, it's 75% and even higher in some communities. Liberal politicians started to push welfare and entitlement programs on Blacks as early as the 1930’s under President Roosevelt.  Sadly, Rosevelt reverted to the principles of the Progressive Party, which was his party before he belonged to the Republican Party.

         By the late 70’s, the government had all but replaced Black men as the bread winner in many  homes. The government became "daddy" to many Black children while Black women were constantly being counseled against marriage.  If they married, they would lose their welfare benefits. While my focus is on Blacks, the numbers for illegitimacy are pretty scary across cultural lines. Ladies, ALL of us need get it together!
        I believe it’s high time that we recover both our power and dignity… and with the quickness! The good news is that we can recover. It will take tenacity and hard work, and in my opinion, it will take a generation to see substantial and sustainable results, but as my father used to say, “if it ain’t worth workin’ for, it ain’t worth nothin’.”
        If you’re wondering if I blame women for the out of control illegitimacy rate …the answer is yes... at least for the most part. Men have to ask us for sex, but we don’t have to say yes or accept uncommitted relationships. Moreover, why would you want to have sex with someone who has absolutely no interest in marrying you? Furthermore, there is an AWESOME amount of power to be gained from accepting and owning your part of any problem.
        Women, we are the gatekeepers of morality. We lost our power because we gave up our post. Now, it’s up to us to redirect our relationships back to God’s design and live biblically principled lives. This is how we regain our power! The man will follow what the woman dictates, or he'll end up awfully lonely.  It’s up to us to have enough self respect and a sense of knowing how we want our families to be structured to lead the way on this issue. Real men will applaud us for our efforts and more beautifully, real men will marry us because of our efforts! It’s time to kill the supply of easy sex and re-establish a sense of virtue. Only then will we attract men who will love, cherish, and respect us. We are worthy of a men who will honor us through marriage, but only when he is financially able to support a family.
        Ladies, please realize that you are worthy of a happy, functional relationship that culminates in marriage. A woman who knows her worth knows all she needs to know.  Nothing is more powerful than knowing you are worthy of a beautiful life!
