Posted by JayZeeBMT on Tue Nov 10 12:35:33 2015, in response to Re: Cruz, Jindal and Huckabee Attend 'Kill The Gays' Conference, posted by Jeff Rosen on Tue Nov 10 12:19:36 2015. What is so "Anti-American" about the following commentary by Rev. Wright? He's not wrong in his depiction of some very horrible episodes from our history, and how some of our current policies fail a huge number of our fellow americans (emphasis on certain passages added):And the United States of America government, when it came to treating her citizens of [Native American] descent fairly, she failed. She put them on reservations. When it came to treating her citizens of Japanese descent fairly, she failed. She put them in internment prison camps. When it came to treating her citizens of African descent fairly, America failed. She put them in chains, the government put them on slave quarters, put them on auction blocks, put them in cotton field, put them in inferior schools, put them in substandard housing, put them in scientific experiments, put them in the lowest paying jobs, put them outside the equal protection of the law, kept them out of their racist bastions of higher education and locked them into positions of hopelessness and helplessness. The government gives them the drugs, builds bigger prisons, passes a three-strike law and then wants us to sing “God Bless America”. No, no, no, not God Bless America. God damn America — that’s in the Bible — for killing innocent people. God damn America, for treating our citizens as less than human. God damn America, as long as she tries to act like she is God, and she is supreme. The United States government has failed the vast majority of her citizens of African descent. |
