Comments for African-American Conservatives http://africanamericanconservatives.com --the soul of the conservative movement Wed, 11 Apr 2012 05:22:14 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.4 Comment on Podcast: Stuff White Conservatives Say by Eric Weeber http://africanamericanconservatives.com/2010/08/20/podcast-nword-hyphen/#comment-460 Eric Weeber Wed, 11 Apr 2012 05:22:14 +0000 http://africanamericanconservatives.com/?p=367#comment-460 While I agree with most things conservative and also things you speak of; I disagree with the Hyphen. I think it does divide and separate. However, I will never tell anyone they can't because as you say, some will always try and connect with a past or a distant family member. I would ask that Americans if they should seek to bring up the subject of slavery, remember there were a great number of whites who never supported it back then and there were those who assisted with freeing and bringing slaves of that time to freedom, let us not be so quick to consistently condemn White people of today, some of our family lines do not even go back to the days of slavery in this country either....I urge restraint and consideration for all, it is time we stopped killing each other and grew towards one another as Americans....

I also am tired of hate crimes. I am Cajun-Indian and taught by a loving mother that regardless of my heritage I am a child of God and should be able to go anywhere in this country without being threatened by another. It don't work that way for me or anyone else. Crime is crime and lurks around any corner. As for hoodies, I think personally they ought to be outlawed. It is a fashion statement that young men are trying to make, that infact makes them look like they are up to no good, the same for slouchy pants. It is a shame that the young man's death is an object of political gain. Thank you for the article...God Bless. Hello,

You see here what I <em>have</em> done, but more importantly, what have <em>you</em> done? I see a lot of people saying negative things about what we are doing, but what are you doing? Do something...anything...then cast your stones. As for me, I'm for justice for all victims, not just those who suit me politically or share my ideology. And, by the way, "the Iraqi" has a name, and it's Shaima Alawadi. The fact that she's just "the Iraqi" to you only proves my point.

Also cannot forget Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom and their kidnapping, rape, torture, and murder by five black thugs, (some of whom were out on parole after serving time for violent crimes), apparently without any motive other than race, yet it didn't even make the national news, let alone be highlighted as a hate crime (which it was). Last but not least, the Duke LaCrosse players! Then there's Obama coming out and making damaging statements in support of Trayvon Martin, when he doesn't even know the facts of the matter, as none of us do. It's very discouraging. Anyway, I agree that ALL racially motivated crimes need to be acknowledged as such and condemned, regardless of who the victim is.

I fear your prediction may be on the money, and Mrs. Alawadi<em> still </em>will have her story moved to page 6...
