I am getting tired of black people taking racial offense of me when I push back on them because I disagree with their ideas that I think are failing the American people.
If I hear another black person call me racist because I
start auguring with them, all hell is going to break loose the next time
we quarrel, I am tired of treating people with kid gloves because their
race of people experience the ugly effects of slavery in America along
time ago.
Because everyone knows no matter what color skin we have that it is the parents of a child that is the difference in our children to succeed in school, and in life for that matter. The color of our skin is not the important feature points to the human race learning how to be better citizens in our civilized community. If the parents fail, the children have very little chance in a harsh competitive society like ours.
That the attitude that you are raised with is everything.
No one can redress what happen two hundred years ago because that is simply impossible. So the way people lived and behaved back then is history, and is not our reality now today.
Like for instance, not giving the city of Detroit one thin dime of the American tax payers money to further rescue Detroit Michigan bankruptcy. Is not racism.
After the Union had a hand and glove relationship with the state of Michigan politicians running the City of Detroit economy into bankruptcy. The hue and cry is for the federal government in Washington DC to simply pour more federal dollars into Detroit to bring back jobs to that city.
What part of spending money that the American people don't have, doesn't the black citizens of Detroit not understand? That if the people living in Detroit Michigan were the color purple the ability of the American people to spend more money that they don't have would be the same.
If Detroit Michigan receives more money from the federal government from this day forward the chances of our Washington DC federal government going bankrupt is getting closer, and closer, because spending borrowed money will one day run out, and the color green has everything to do with it then. Not dark brown, black, red, yellow, or white.
America was a place to go where you can get ahead in life because you could work hard to get ahead in the new country called the United States of America. Applying your ability taking more risk with investing your money to make your fortune. The federal government has very little to do with the economic growth in the United State of America.
Now America is a place to go so the federal government can give you what people need for free. Dependence on the federal government is not America at all.
The color green makeup for a lot, because the color of money that you earn is what really matters to you as an American.
There is no secret in our life because we all know what is really going on.

"For nothing is hidden that will not be made manifest, nor is anything secret that will not be known and come to light."

Saudi Arabia "Outraged" At Obama's Peace Overtures With Syria, Iran
The Obama administration's handling of overtures on Syria and Iran have outraged regional ally Saudi Arabia, which is signaling it wants to do more to boost the power of armed Sunni rebel groups on the ground in Syria as the U.S. pursues diplomacy.
Saudis fear that Syrian President Basher al-Assad will use the time afforded by U.S.- and U.N.-backed diplomacy on Syria "to impose more killing and to torture its people," Saudi Foreign Minister Saud al-Faisal said Thursday night in New York, in a warning that was overshadowed by the attention paid to the weekend's first public contacts in three decades between the presidents of Iran and the U.S.
...
Two developments have particularly alarmed Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, another Gulf state: U.S.-backed diplomacy that is giving Mr. Assad an opportunity to surrender his chemical weapons, heading off a U.S.-military strike against the Assad regime; and warming relations between Messrs. Obama and Rouhani.
On Sept. 12, as Mr. Rouhani was tweeting some of the first Iranian overtures in decades to the West, former Saudi diplomat Turki al Faisal was telling a London defense forum that Iran's leaders should stand trial for war crimes for supporting Mr. Assad.
"The current charade of international control over Bashar's chemical arsenal would be funny if it were not so blatantly perfidious, and designed not only to give Mr. Obama an opportunity to back down, but also to help Assad butcher his people," Prince Turki said then.--------------

BATON ROUGE – LSU quarterback Zach Mettenberger was talking to wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. on Monday about what happened at Ole Miss Saturday.
“He told me he didn’t remember throwing three interceptions in a game in his life,” said Beckham, who was the intended receiver on all three interceptions in the first half of the Tigers’ 27-24 loss to the Rebels.
“It does come as a surprise to me because of the way he had played all season,” Beckham said.
Mettenberger, who dropped one spot to second in the Southeastern Conference in passing efficiency at 173.7 from 184.1, had thrown only two interceptions through LSU’s first seven games this season. Before Saturday, he had thrown two interceptions in a game only once in his LSU career – against Ole Miss last season. Before Saturday, the most interceptions he had thrown in any three-game stretch were those two last season.
“I’ve got to be smarter,” said Mettenberger, who threw to Beckham despite double coverage and under-threw two of the picks. “They were just bad plays. They made good plays on balls and just bad plays by me. Right now, we just need to learn from this and get ready to go out strong.”

NOTEBOOK: LSU freshman Jeryl Brazil suspended indefinitely after arrest
10/23/2013 3:17:00 PM
By LUKE JOHNSON
Tiger Rag Associate Editor
LSU
freshman Jeryl Brazil was arrested last week for simple battery and
simple criminal damage to property after he allegedly grabbed a woman by
the throat and pushed her to the sofa on October 18.
Brazil
was also accused of punching a hole in the wall before leaving the
apartment, according to LSU police department spokesman Capt. Corey
LaLonde. The arrest was first reported by the LSU student newspaper, The Daily Reveille.
LSU coach Les Miles announced in his Wednesday evening press conference that Brazil would be suspended indefinitely.
"He'll have to sort this out," Miles said. "It's his responsibility."
It
is the second time Brazil has been arrested in his freshman year, the
first coming in September after he got in a fight at the loading dock of
an LSU dining hall.
According
to The Daily Reveille's report, Brazil was upset about events that
occurred earlier in the day. He was apprehended shortly after the
incident at West Campus Apartments.
Brazil
was originally recruited by LSU as a defensive back, but earned some
playing time as a running back early in the season as coaches tried to
take advantage of his sprinter speed. Brazil's only two career carries
came against UAB, when he toted the ball twice for 10 yards.
COPELAND PROBABLY OUT
LSU fullback J.C. Copeland is likely to miss his second consecutive game.
"I don't know that he'll be with us Saturday," Miles said.
Copeland suffered a concussion after he slipped when leaving the shower at LSU's practice facility last week.
BACKUP PLAN
With
Furman coming to town and a senior quarterback soon to be on his way
out, many people are hoping to see what true freshman quarterback
Anthony Jennings can do running the LSU offense.
Miles said he’s open to using Jennings, but was unclear whether he’d actually get in the game against Furman.
"Our
second-team quarterback is always that guy that’s in position to play
and play a lot of football should something happen, and we would like to
see Anthony Jennings specifically,” Miles said. "We would expect that
Anthony Jennings would want to see some action, and we’d like to have
him see some action in this game.”
If
he were to see his first extensive action, it would be in place of
starting quarterback Zach Mettenberger, who thinks Jennings has what it
takes to lead the team should he get injured.
"A
lot of the things we work on every day in practice are for that
scenario and situation,” Mettenberger said. "He is a freshman, but
freshmen play big roles here. If he were thrown into that situation,
he’d do a great job.”
Jennings
has seen the field in five games this year, mostly in garbage time and
in situations that call for a quarterback sneak. On the season he’s
completed his only pass for 15 yards, and has ran the ball seven times
for 14 yards and a touchdown.
KNIGHTED
There
might be some confused people in the stands Saturday, wondering what
exactly Furman’s "Paladin” mascot is. Don’t count Mettenberger among
them.
"A
Paladin is a knight,” Mettenberger said. "I used to go to Furman camps
every summer as a child, so I know a Paladin very well.”
The Furman campus in Greenville, S.C., is "an hour and 27 minutes” away from Mettenberger’s Watkinsville, Ga., home.
"DINNER DATE”
Mettenberger
chose not to attend a media session Monday afternoon, leading to some
speculation that he was perhaps still too upset to speak about his
three-interception game against Ole Miss.
Not the case, said Mettenberger.
"I had dinner plans,” Mettenberger deadpanned. "A dinner date, yeah.”
His dinner plans were interrupted when he spoke to members of the media on Tuesday.
"I’ve got Taco Tuesday tonight, and y’all are killing me.”
QUOTABLE
"I
was preaching before the season that we have the potential and the
opportunity to be one of the best teams or one of the worst. I strongly
believe that. We’ve been on a line the whole season, playing bad and
playing good. It’s in the back half of the season, but I still feel like
we’ve yet to reach our goal.”

OXFORD, Miss. – Two things remain as expected in the Southeastern Conference after one of the wildest weekends in the history of the top 15 in the national polls.
One is Alabama being undefeated and above it all at 7-0 and 4-0 in the SEC with few real hurdles ahead. Two is LSU coach Les Miles still needing a Flavor Flav game clock around his neck to know when to call a timeout.
Other than that, just about everything else is turned upside down after a wild first weekend of the second half of the season. It’s time to welcome a new blood in Missouri and some old money in Auburn.
No. 6 LSU lost at 3-3 and 1-3 Ole Miss, 27-24, on a last second field goal despite the Rebels without nearly half of their defensive starters and tailback Jeff Scott because of injuries. It was the Tigers’ first loss to a team with a non-winning record this late in a season since it fell 31-30 at 4-7 and 1-6 Arkansas to close the 2008 regular season at 8-5 and 5-3.
The Tigers (6-2, 3-2) have two losses earlier in a season than in any season since 2006 and are out of the BCS national championship chase even if they do somehow beat Alabama and Texas A&M in November. Suddenly that does not seem very likely. Without two fumbles by Ole Miss in the fourth quarter, the Rebels would not have needed a clutch field goal.
No. 7 Texas A&M lost at home to No. 24 Auburn 45-41. The Aggies are 5-2 and 2-2 and are fortunate they did not lose to Ole Miss the previous week.
In the SEC East version of Ole Miss’ shock to LSU, No. 11 South Carolina fell 23-21 at Tennessee on a field goal as time expired. The Vols entered the game at 3-3 and 0-2. The Gamecocks are 5-2 and 3-2 and have to go to Missouri (7-0, 3-0) this week. "HAVE to go to Missouri?” Just last season, that seemed like a respite. Now the "Fighting Journalists” are routinely making deadline with points to spare.
No. 15 Georgia, which was picked by a certain Mizzou grad as the No. 1 team in the nation before the season, is suddenly 4-3 and 3-2 after losing 31-27 at Vanderbilt. And the Bulldogs can’t blame all the injuries on offense. The defense blew the game late.
No. 22 Florida is also 4-3 and 3-2 after losing at Mizzou, 36-17. It was a tough trip for the Gators. They saw a better Journalism School and a better football team all in the same weekend at a former Big 12 upstart. Can’t wait for that "World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party” against Georgia in two weeks. At 8-6 mixed, better make it well drinks.
So where does this leave us? Alabama and Missouri in the SEC Championship Game is the most sensible choice. A Kent State reunion in Atlanta. Alabama coach Nick Saban and Missouri coach Gary Pinkel each played and were graduate assistants in the early 1970s under Don James at Kent State. Pinkel followed Saban as head coach at Toledo in 1991.
Missouri has a more difficult path than Alabama, which suddenly does have an interesting Iron Bowl trip to Auburn on the horizon.
Here’s a look at what remains for the remaining three SEC teams with one loss or no losses:
ALABAMA (7-0, 4-0) – at Tennessee (4-3, 1-2) on Oct. 26, LSU (6-2, 3-2) on Nov. 9, at Mississippi State (2-3, 0-2) on Nov. 16, Chattanooga (4-2) on Nov. 23 and at Auburn (6-1, 3-1 SEC) on Nov. 30.
MISSOURI (7-0, 3-0) – South Carolina (5-2, 3-2) on Oct. 26, Tennessee (4-3, 1-2) on Nov. 2, at Kentucky (1-5, 0-3) on Nov. 9, at Ole Miss (4-3, 2-3) on Nov. 23 and Texas A&M (5-2, 2-2) on Nov. 30.
AUBURN (6-1, 3-1) – Florida Atlantic (2-5), at Arkansas (3-5, 0-4) on Nov. 2, at Tennessee (4-3, 1-2) on Nov. 9, Georgia (4-3, 3-2) on Nov. 16 and Alabama (7-0, 4-0) on Nov. 30.
LSU will still be a difficult game for the Tide. An upset could happen. The Tigers will be motivated to spoil Alabama’s season and to try to help the rest of the nation avoid having to watch the Tide win a fourth national championship in five years.
Should Auburn be 10-1 and 6-1 with an 11-0 and 7-0 Alabama or a 10-1 and 6-1 Alabama coming into town, look for a classic.
Missouri has difficult challenges as South Carolina will be trying to bounce back this week, and maybe Tennessee has something after all. Then the Journalists have to go to Ole Miss, which will be getting healthier by then, before hosting Johnny Football.
If Tennessee really is improved, that could be a difficult road game for Auburn, and Georgia may be regrouped by the time it comes to Auburn.
It’s still too early. Everything may look like Alabama and Missouri, but it’s not even Halloween yet.
That said, had anyone picked an Alabama-Missouri SEC title game before the season, he or she would have been viewed as crazy as that cat who picked Georgia No. 1.
MY A.P. POLL VOTE: 1. Alabama. 2. Florida State. 3. Oregon. 4 Ohio State. 5. Missouri. 6. Miami. 7. Baylor. 8. Fresno State. 9. Texas Tech. 10. Auburn. 11. Stanford. 12. Clemson. 13. Central Florida.
14. Louisville. 15. UCLA. 16. Oklahoma. 17. Texas A&M. 18. LSU. 19. Wisconsin. 20. Oklahoma State. 21. Virginia Tech. 22. Notre Dame. 23. Michigan State. 24. Michigan. 25. South Carolina.
MY SEC RANKINGS: 1. Alabama (7-0, 4-0). 2. Missouri (7-0, 3-0). 3. Auburn (6-1, 3-1). 4. Texas A&M (5-2, 2-2). 5. LSU (6-2, 3-2). 6. South Carolina (5-2, 3-2). 7. Florida (4-3, 3-2). 8. Ole Miss (4-3, 2-3). 9. Vanderbilt (4-3, 1-3). 10. Georgia (4-3, 3-2). 11. Tennessee (4-3, 1-2). 12. Mississippi State (3-3, 0-2). 13. Kentucky (1-5, 0-3). 14. Arkansas (3-5, 0-4).

Les Miles says sitting Jeremy Hill early was ‘the right call’
Miles says sitting Hill after early fumble at Ole Miss was ‘the right call’
Read more...http://theadvocate.com/
LSU running back Jeremy Hill had an uncharacteristic fumble on the first play at Ole Miss last week.
Though Hill quickly retrieved the football on what turned out to be a 7-yard gain, after two more carries, he found himself on the sideline. He didn’t touch the football again until a few minutes into the second quarter.
Coach Les Miles has a nearly zero-tolerance policy for turnovers, and he made no exception even for Hill, who is not believed to have fumbled previously in his two seasons as a Tiger.
“It’s really not a hard, fast fumble rule, if you will,” Miles said, “but that was the first play of the game, and you have to think (that on) the first play of the game, you’d have ball security.
“So it was an indication, if you will, that we needed to get his attention. I think it was exactly the right call (to sit Hill), and we watched film and we understood what was there and what wasn’t, and I think it was best that he played exactly how he played.”
