Villifying Black Men

Does it seem that there is a preponderance of Black men continually arrested and villified in the media relative to number of White men held accountable for their purported crimes? It seems that it has become sport for the "media" that is "White America" to villify Black men. If it isn't Michael Jackson, Michael Vick, James Brown, Barry Bonds, then it is OJ Simpson. Does this seem racist to you? It does to me.

People attacked Michael Vick for his role in dog fighting, and yet, these same people don't seem to be offended by people who hunt duck, rabbit, deer, quail, pheasant etc. for sport. The issue was never about a dog, it was about a Black man's role in something defined as a crime and it seemed like a double-standard has been applied to him. So it seems people were gunning for a wealthy Black man, or sadly, to some, a run-away slave. What I see is a bunch of blood-thirsty savages who have revealed their true colors yet again.

And the focus is on OJ Simpson again. How many charges are you people going to trump up? What was the purpose of remand? This man is a celebrity. The real story should've read "High-Tech Lynch Mob Pursues OJ Simpson". Why wasn't the media so hell bent on covering Lindsay Lohan and her crack addiction? If OJ Simpson had been pulled over with crack cocaine on his person, then throngs of reporters would've waited outside for him to emerge from the detention center or for a press release.

Let's see it for what it really is. The zoo is a living hell for many animals. It is unethical to euthinize hundreds of dogs and cats yearly as animal shelters do. Sigfried and Roy made millions and were celebrated because of their seemingly unethical treatment of tigers and lions. However that tiger made it loud and clear how it felt about Roy. I don't see the media heads camping out in front of the zoos or the circus. Why not? Because they don't care about that and they really didn't care about Pit Bulls. Rather, it is all about lynching a Black man.

As far as I'm concerned, OJ is innocent of any wrong-doing, just as Michael Vick, Michael Jackson, Rodney King and whomever else that these, the true villians try to villify.

Do you want to investigate something? Then investigate your local public school's history curriculum and see if America's children are being taught about the real contributors to civilization as we know it, by people of African ancestory!
