I’ve been sitting here for the past few days trying to comprehend some events that have happened recently. Yet no matter how hard I try, I can’t seem to come to any clear understanding. Perhaps you can help me out?
Lets start off with what happened on August 6th of this year. Kenneth Gladney, a black conservative, was selling flags at a town hall event (I only mention his race for reasons you’ll see later). He was then attacked by members of the SEIU (Service Employees International Union) who issued a racial slur then proceeded to beat him to the ground. It was captured on video as you can see here.
After three months, the attackers were finally charged – with misdemeanor ordinance violations.
Then on November 4th of this year, a Christian was attacked at a Californian mall kiosk where Abdul Walid Hamid of Hayward:
tore a crucifix from a person’s neck and scared others at Stoneridge Shopping Center.
…Hamid was yelling “Allah is power” and “Islam is great” while holding a pen in a fist over his head. Witnesses said he shouted anti-Christian comments, said police.
He was charged with:
battery, grand theft, exhibition of a deadly weapon and a possible hate crime. – emphasis mine
Then of course we have the well known incident at Ft. Hood where Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan slaughtered 13 soldiers and injured around two dozen more.
What were his charges? 13 counts of premeditated murder.
Next we have a black professor of English at the City College of New York (also a former Yale faculty member) who wrote an essay while sitting next to an anonymous male whom she “longs to murder.” Apparently she was upset over a lost seat on a commercial airlines flight. His offense? He was simply white. There has been no condemnation levied against her by her employer, nor from those who “jealously guard us against hate crimes.” Remember, she is a professor and as such, is “mentoring” the next generation of American leaders.
Lets do a fast recap. First we have a black conservative who was attacked by union members who called him a racial epitaph and beat him to the ground. It took 3 months for very limited charges to be levied against his assailants. Then we have a Muslim kiosk worker attacking a Christian by ripping a crucifix from his neck, shouting anti-Christian comments, and praising Islam. Next we have a Muslim fanatic who commits mass murder – all the while praising Allah. Please note that he hates the United States military. Finally we have a black professor who openly proclaims her hatred for whites and actually wrote about it. Yet none of the aggressors and/or perpetrators of these incidents were charged with a hate crime, with the exception of Abdul Walid Hamid who was charged with a “possible.”
However, a Muslim woman who had her headscarf yanked pressed charges against the woman who did so. The woman was charged with a hate crime.
Does any of this make sense to you?

It makes a certain amount of sense, yes. We are afraid to offend these other groups- especially Muslims, but should a white person or Christian be ‘offended’ then they are supposed to just shove off and ‘lighten up’.
A Christian noticing these things is a ‘hatemonger’ ‘closed-minded’ ‘islamophobic’ Where the perpetrators of these crimes are ‘victims’. Notice how the Muslim community has insinuated itsself as ‘victim’ after Ft. Hood. They claim and the President claims there will be reprisals and hate crimes. Even with the bloated nature of the ‘hate crimes’ so far brought forth, Muslims account for the victims of roughly 8% of Religion motivated hate crimes, and Jews are the victims of over 60% of them.
How often do you hear Jews whining about how they ‘might possibly’ ‘could be’ victims of such crimes? It takes Iran making NUKES aimed at them to cause them to say “Hey now. That’s naughty.”
If you are meek, as the Bible and the Jewish texts call us to be.. well… it’s apparently just a side effect. Honestly, I’m okay with that. At least my conscience is clear. In the end I will be glad to have lived as loving and accepting a life I can live, and to teach my kids to do the same.
I hope to see a day when there is no such thing as a ‘hate crime’; a day where an assault on another person is simply that, a crime in itself as an assault.
I get sick of hearing that someone only hit the (insert stereotype here) person because they hated ‘their people’, and I get even more sick of hearing “so-and-so only hit me because I am (insert stereotype here)”.
There are great people in every group, and every group contains it’s own wastes of human skin.
I’m also sick of people playing the race/gender/whatever card for… I don’t know… everything! I’m tired of having to worry about how to act or refer to just about every group on the planet, I can’t even keep track of what’s politically correct in reference to my own group!
I know it’s a pipe dream, and we may never live in a world where people can just accept each others differences, but it is definitely something to aspire to.
Enough grumpy, I’d best get some food…
