CITY GIVES BLACK LEADERS A PASS

The ironic thing about this largely urban drug war that has
devastated the black community is that it is being carried out, for
the most part, by black mayors, councils and police chiefs all across
the country.

The black community has not grown up enough politically to look past
the skin color of the person running and ask the tough questions.
This would explain why these same politicians continue to run
unopposed or win by huge margins.

If the mayor, council, congressman and police chief of Atlanta had
been white, would City Hall still be standing? This same city rioted
over the beating of a black criminal by white cops in a city located
on the other coast of this country; an event that had no impact on
their lives and yet Kathryn Johnston is dead and we barely hear a
peep from the usual suspects.
