Sorry if this sounds gloom and doom and all......but seriously, how does this shit end?
i ask because i see no way out of this. lets face it...ALL of our lives its been race this and race that....you would think people would get sick and tired of living with the racism anchor attached to themselves and find a better place in life.......that simply aint happening.
i mean it was 52 years ago since the death of MLK......can we look back after 50 years and say "gee, look how far we have come"? I say we can....but the problem is there is a massive segment of society who doesnt see it that way.
Worse yet, politicians and "dignitaries" use race to fan the flames of hatred ( with selfish motivations no doubt). from my perspective....it works quite well. we have a young generation who only know one thing.....how horrible, unfair, cruel and racist this country is.
So i ask again.......how does this shit end? please dont tell me we all sit around and preach love, understanding, harmony and all that BS....because i have been hearing that for 35+ years and where has it brought the situation to? I hear a lot about voting and how that "makes your voice heard".....how has that been working out for the last 30 years?race relations have been degenerating all of our lives........
I'd like to think that these riots will come to an end with the use of police, the guard, even the military if necessary....but all that does is put a lid on the massive reservoir and not actually solve the problem........as we have done so many times in the past.
so please...someone......how does this ever actually get resolved?
