The crime in Charlotte was breathtakingly horrific. Almost unimaginable.
But to the battalions of right wingers out there with their race-based crime charts, pointing the fingers and hooting about “the Blacks” and “Black fatigue,” etc. here’s a clue: The real villain in this whole thing is the State.
It was the State, starting well before the “Great Society” nonsense, that sought to intervene in the lives of American Blacks to “bring them up” to “our” level.
And “fight racism,” of course.
They only succeeded in destroying the one thing that actually helped bring Black people out of poverty and despair: Black Families.
Just as it was the state that passed the “Jim Crow” laws in the first place, when the State decided to clean up its act and make amends, it only succeeded in making matters worse.
The white “do-gooders” who substituted the State for the Black father through welfare and all manner of state-intervention have blood on their hands.
You like statistics? Have a look at how many Black kids grow up with Uncle Sam as their surrogate father.
And it’s easy to blame white liberals for the mayhem the State has unleashed on Black people for the 70 or so years. But conservatives did next to nothing to make a coherent argument against the State interfering in our families. In fact they have been all for it.
The thug who killed that beautiful young woman should pay dearly for his crime. But the real hand on the knife was the State.
