Responding to the race hustlers

...One of the things that holds many blacks back is the belief that all of life's misfortunes that befall them are because they are black. Floods that overwhelm the homes of blacks and whites are somehow aimed at only blacks. This is the attitude of the low functioning in our society. There was a time when racist whites blamed their misfortune on blacks and Jews. The results are the same in both cases. There is a failure to take responsibility for your circumstances and do something about it other than claim victim status. You see the same low functioning victim whine holding back Palestinians who would rather blame others for their poverty rather than take responsibility.
As long as liberals own the vocabulary of compassion in this country, I suppose many are too afraid of being branded racist for saying that simply throwing money at poverty is not going to make a dint in it. Even less likely are they to say that other factors may be contributing to black poverty as well -- including the perpetuation of the sinister and patronizing idea that blacks simply can't lift themselves up without the white man's largesse.
I happen to believe that promoting permanent victimhood and dependency is what is racist, not according all races equal respect and dignity. It is difficult to quantify the cumulative destructive impact of all the reckless, knee-jerk charges of white racism leveled by race-exploiters of both races who have something to gain by their accusations and by fanning the flames of racial tensions. When sanctimonious white guys in positions of authority, like Ted Kennedy, jump on this infernal bandwagon, it can't help but reinforce fears in blacks of white racism.
