In his hate-riddled speech, he accused “white folks” of not truly caring about the nine victims of the Charleston shooting, and asserted that the real racist culprit is the American flag.
“White folks march with you because they don’t want you upsetting the city, they don’t give a damn about them nine,” said Farrakhan.
Funny that the facts don’t fit the narrative that Farrakhan and his other race-baiting buddies are trying so hard to confirm as truth. Blacks and whites marched in Charleston together because most people are truly disturbed by the level of depravity we saw in the murder of nine innocent human beings.
“I don’t know what the hell the fight is about over the Confederate flag. We need to put the American flag down. Because we’ve caught as much hell under that as the Confederate flag.” He added, “Who are we fighting today? It’s the people that carry the American flag.”
I knew this would happen. I’ve been saying it since I heard that the Left was calling for the removal of the Confederate flag. These people hate the United States because they’ve been fed the lie since birth that White America has oppressed them in some way.
This follows the demands that monuments of Robert E. Lee and Jefferson Davis be removed in state capitals and college campuses across the nation. Warner Brothers has publically announced that they won’t sell the iconic General Lee from The Dukes of Hazzard because of its depiction of the Confederate flag, and now people are calling for Warner Brothers to stop producing and selling the top grossing film of all time.
“Gone with the Wind” is still the top grossing picture of all time. Adjusted for inflation, its 1.6 billion box-office blowout is still the reigning champion of ticket sales, but because it romanticized the Confederacy, it is racist and must be stomped out. I’ve seen “GWTW” too many times to count. It is one of my favorite movies, and while it doesn’t show the horrors of slavery the way other films have, it did show the horrors of Reconstruction, and how hard that was on all in the South.
“GWTW” won a whopping eight Oscars in 1939, including Best Actress in a Supporting Role to Hattie McDonald for her portrayal of Mammie, and beat out “The Wizard of Oz” for Best Picture, but it was snubbed at the 2014 Oscars on its 75th anniversary.
This week CNN anchor Ashleigh Banfield asked this week if we should remove the Jefferson Memorial in Washington D.C. because he was a slaveowner.
“There is a monument to him in the capital city of the United States. No one ever asks for that to come down,” Banfield said.
No, but I’m sure they will now because the Left knows now level too low to sink. Jefferson is one of the fathers of our nation, and I know most on the Left secretly (and openly) hate our home, but the vast majority of Americans still love our flag and our founders.
What Dylann Roof did in Charleston was wrong, but the American flag, the Confederate flag, guns, Thomas Jefferson, Margaret Mitchell or her book “Gone with the Wind”, or the General Lee are NOT responsible for the actions of a madman. In fact, I would assert that the progressive liars in the main stream media and on college campuses that continue to push this false narrative of racism are far more responsible for pushing a nutjob over the edge than the afore mentioned list of items or people.
Charleston was a shining example of how Americans, of all races, should come together during tragedy. They mourned the loss of their fellow citizens without rioting or destroying their city. They told the racists set on destruction to leave their city, and they showed forgiveness for an unforgiveable crime. These actions are how all Americans should behave in times of great tragedy.
So, go home, Farrakhan. You’re not taking our American flag down.
Appalled By The World says: In the old days this kook was called what he was and still is-a racist nut. Nowadays though this creep has a new level of credibility thanks to the Leftist dominated media. His arrival as someone who has gone mainstream shows just how low a level society has sunk. He really sounds no worse than any other Leftist these days whereas 30 years ago blacks as well as whites would cringe anytime he’d open his mouth.
Lisa Carr says: “White folks march with you because they don’t want you upsetting the city, they don’t give a damn about them nine”
Umm, actually we do. Charlestonians and across the United States. We are saying that we STAND TOGETHER against hate crimes. The families should have peace, quiet as the souls of the family members are laid to rest. We DO give a damn. Have a discussion on the Confederate Flag AFTER the community has grieved. Push your gun agenda AFTER the community has grieved. And, address Dylan Roof and put him (and others like him) to justice AFTER the community has grieved. Get it? Run your mouths AFTER the community has grieved, genius!
Yes, let’s ban everything that points to the Confederacy-repaint the General Lee, bury Gone With The Wind on the bookshelves of our public libraries, ban guns, change the name of the Jefferson Memorial and any other memorial or street named after any one who owned slaves for that matter. Why not? Let’s boycott all white actors whose white families owned slaves in the past? (A-hem–Ben Affleck?) I’m being sarcastic, of course…but you get the drift….
..I know most on the Left secretly (and openly) hate our home, but the vast majority of Americans still love our flag and our founders.
….You know the saying–if you don’t like it here…..? Buh-bye. Don’t let the door hit you on the way out!
Miss Inu says: Just as ISIS destroys the ancient antiquities that clash with their beliefs, we’re going down the same mindless path with our history. I guess we should count ourselves lucky they’re not calling for us to be put in cages and burned, drowned or blown to bits.
At least, not yet!
“These people hate the United States because they’ve been fed the lie since birth that White America has oppressed them in some way.” This indoctrination continues with the aid of our media and schools across our nation.
