THE END OF THE AMERICAN FAMILY

The United States of America is in trouble.  We are screaming down a toboggan run bound for hell and picking up speed with every inch of slope traversed.  Worse, we have elected as our Chief Executive Officer and guide someone who accepts no responsibility for his own actions or for the dangerous state of affairs in which he has placed the nation. 

When have you heard a member of the Obama Administration say, “I am responsible for my department’s failure and I’ve submitted my resignation,” or, “It is clear that I chose the wrong person to head up this program and I apologize; please pray that I do better with my next selection?”

Black American communities are not working; black families are not working; black churches are not working and the black entertainment industry is glorifying, vulgarity, thuggery, crime, and gangsterism while peddling coarse, crude, evil, and drug soaked Hip-Hop and Rap music, to black and white families nationwide. Hopefully black leaders will come to their senses before matters reach a tipping point from which there is no return. 

Daily the black family is betrayed by the likes of the Congressional Black Caucus, the NAACP, Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, opportunists who only seem interested in amassing political power and accumulating personal wealth. They get rich off the system while using it to control black families and communities and to curry favor with liberal white politicians.

The NAACP doesn’t represent black America; it represents white liberals and the Democrat Party. There has to be a way to free black America from their control and to put the black family, communities and churches back together again. Perhaps here some introspection is in order.

Black men have failed to support black women, black children and black families.  They have also failed to perform their duties as husbands and fathers.  Black cities like Detroit, in particular, have failed and are failing more and more with each passing day, cities without educated and disciplined citizens, and cities without hope for a decent, prosperous, secure and happy future.   

In these cities, school dropout rates have climbed above 50% and, across the board, there is a failure of black men and women to constructively reshape the schools and black institutions that once helped grow healthy families, which once produced disciplined, responsible and dependable children and adults.

According to the news media, 73% of black children are born to single black mothers, which further contribute to the disintegration of the black family. Clearly, black American families are in crisis. It is as though some devil had pronounced an evil curse against them. Were the curse given a name, it would probably be called “The disintegration of the black family.”

 Black on black crime and drugs are rampant in the black community and they violently batter the black family and those black adults who valiantly strive, without much success, to rip their families and communities away from the clutches of this disintegrative scourge. And the failure of black national leadership organizations such as the NAACP and the Congressional Black Caucus to provide help and meaningful guidance further contributes to the failure of the black family.

True, gangland crime and drug distribution is forced on many black communities and families. But some of these familial destructive forces are welcomed.   White Americans don’t force black women to have abortions or to have children born out of wedlock.  Black women submit to these procedures voluntarily.

Abortion in America is a family destructive, multibillion-dollar industry run primarily by doctors working in or near black communities. It is estimated that these abortion doctors gross up to $60,000 per week. If there are no changes to current American policies and lifestyles, some time before the end of the current century abortion will have significantly reduced America’s overall population growth and will have decimated America’s black communities, many of which will cease to exist.

Today the gap between the white and black communities is huge. If things continue to follow their normal social pattern of progression, in twenty years white single mothers will be giving birth to illegitimate children at the same rate that black women do today. Whether the white community likes it or not, they are partially responsible for the disgusting state of affairs in the black community.

Our court system is run by white not black America. When drug dealers are arrested for selling drugs and are back on the street the next day, it is white leadership that has failed the black and white Communities. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. would be horrified at the degenerative state of America’s black and white families and communities today. This is not the kind of America he gave his life to build. Back then he could say with confidence, “There is no black problem…There is only an American problem.”

The current problem is exaggerated by a Democrat led federal government whose purpose seems to be finding new ways to use tax payer money and the regulatory process to reward their political allies through crony capitalism, and to unfairly take from those who have worked hard for their financial successes and savings and to distribute it to those who choose not to work.

Today all our citizens, not just black or white, are threatened by the decay that is rampant in our communities and black families. All of America’s citizens are responsible for this disgusting state of affairs, especially those in charge of our federal, state and local governments.

 It may come as a surprise and shock to the occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue but he, more than any other, is responsible for the deterioration of this great nation and the destruction of the black family.
