Detroit Bankruptcy Won’t Save City: Decades of Bankrupt Black Racist Leadership, Morals Undid Detroit, Won’t Be Fixed

A timely post about from www.DebbieSchlussel.com about Detroit’s mismanagement. This follows this post about Liberal Censorship. In the meantime, you can get more involved if you like here and read an interesting book HERE.

Detroit Bankruptcy Won’t Save City: Decades of Bankrupt Black Racist Leadership, Morals Undid Detroit, Won’t Be Fixed


By Debbie Schlussel



Since I am a fourth-generation Detroiter and live just four miles outside the city limits, many readers have asked for my reaction to yesterday’s bankruptcy filing by the City of Detroit. Longtime readers know that I’ve felt for most of my life that Detroit was already bankrupt–financially, morally, and otherwise. This just makes it official. Detroit’s mostly Black, mostly racist, mostly corrupt “leadership”–or lack thereof–led the city to this point, but it’s not politically correct to say this hard, unvarnished truth.

Detroit: Where the Weak Are Killed & Eaten



I was born in the City of Detroit, but I am the first in four generations of Detroiters who has never lived within the city limits (other than perhaps a couple months or so–if that–after I was born when my late father was doing his medical residency). I am the third generation of Detroiters who avoided the city like the plague and among three generations who were and remain afraid to go there because it’s a crime-ridden dump of a ghost town. The largest city in America ever to file bankruptcy should have filed long ago. This was a long time coming and very necessary to put Detroit on a path back to possible revitalization, though the odds are slim even with a successful emergence from bankruptcy.



A column I wrote on this site about Detroit’s race riots in the ’60s is now in a major textbook. And it’s not racist to point out that Detroit collapsed under the weight of decades of Black racist clowns running the city . . . into the ground. Charles Pugh, an openly gay fan of (anti-gay) Louis Farrakhan, was until recently the City Council President of Detroit. He apparently molested a teen he was mentoring and ran away from Detroit under cover of night. He was spotted in Seattle in hiding and was fired by Kevin Orr, the Emergency Financial Manager who is the only man in the last four decades with decency and common sense and the man who made the tough decision to file for bankruptcy. And he dragged Detroit kicking and screaming to that point. He’s from out of town and was appointed by the governor against the wishes of the majority of the mostly Black residents of Detroit.

While Detroit was sinking and burning, Pugh and a parade of other lunatics elected to “run” the city were focusing on different “priorities.” They accepted bribes and were deposed (see Monica Conyers, recently a resident of “Camp Cupcake” prison). They tried to name the Detroit half of the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel after Monica Conyers’ hubby, Marxist Congressman John Conyers, a fitting tribute because like the rest of Detroit and Conyers’ ideas, the tunnel is underwater. They enacted an “African Town” enterprise zone that would favor Blacks and Black-owned businesses because everyone knows that racism is the way to rebuild a city. They refused to allow the State of Michigan to take over Belle Isle and other Detroit parks and rescue them because they saw that as “Whitey” trying to take “our jewels”–jewels built by the White residents of ancient Detroit and driven to dumping grounds for dead bodies of murder victims, infested by drug dealers, criminals, and havens for late night gay sex and prostitution.



While Detroit was sinking and “achieved” its current estimated out-of-wedlock birth rate of near 90%, racist Detroit City Councilwoman JoAnn Watson–who begged for an Obama bailout of the City–was busy whining over and nixing a contract to pay a Black boxing instructor $10 per hour to teach Black Detroit boys how to box at a community center. Hey, he wasn’t “black enough” in her eyes because he didn’t live in the city. G-d forbid young Black boys who have no father figure or decent male role model in their lives should get one at $10 per hour.



Detroit is an infected swamp. It’s infected with crime, kids with no dads (and a bankruptcy will never fix that or erase that debt), people with no values, and a high tax rate on the few suburbanites left who still work there. The problem is that after emerging from bankruptcy, while Detroit will have a clean slate in its finances, it will continue to elect the same panoply of nut jobs, race merchants, criminals, and loons. That will happen over and over again. More Kwame Kilpatricks and Charles Pughs and JoAnn Watsons will return to “run” the city. That’s who Detroit votes for. And it’s an indictment of Black Detroit. Anybody who wants to create an atmosphere for jobs and businesses is viewed as an ally of “the suburbs” and an Uncle Tom (even though many of Detroit’s suburbs are now largely Black) and a racist swoops in to win the election.



The two Black men recently put in place to lead the city–men who are outstanding people and real mensches–were anomalies. Lame duck Mayor Dave Bing, who is basically a Republican in Democrat clothing, couldn’t do much. He’s not “street” enough and couldn’t make a move to fix things because of intractable city unions and an obstructionist City Council. Orr, as I noted, was not elected. He was put in place–appointed–by a White governor, Rick Snyder, who is viewed as the enemy. And, in turn, Orr, is viewed as an Uncle Tom, too. He is not in power because the City of Detroit wants him. But because it was forced on the city of Obamanation and abomination.



Bankruptcy is a good thing for the City. But Detroit will never come back until and unless it has an atmosphere of low taxes, weak (or no) unions, and a leadership whose agenda consists of something other than “Get The Crackaz!” As I noted, bankruptcy and the emergence therefrom will not erase generations and generations of young boys born to single mothers. It will not erase the hip-hop culture that holds the city and much of Black America (and, now, a growing portion of White America) hostage. It will not erase the bankruptcy of values and morals that dominates the city. Drugs and crime will continue in the city no matter how many more police are put on the street because of bankruptcy reorganization. The tax rate on those working and producing in Detroit will not go down via bankruptcy. It’s a legislative act of a City Council that will never change.



The real bankruptcy in Detroit began when White flight happened in the ’60s and ’70s–when my family and others ran away from the city as fast we they could because my grandparents and parents saw the handwriting on the wall, because they saw the riots in which people’s lives and livelihoods–particularly the lives and livelihoods of the civilized White people living in the city–were threatened. And until White people (other than hipsters living in fantasyland) feel safe enough to return to the city and live there–as they have in places like Cleveland, Washington, DC, etc.–Detroit will never recover, bankruptcy or not. We didn’t leave Detroit to get away from Black people (we moved into what was transforming into a largely Black neighborhood and suburb, where I still live today). We moved to get away from the destructive values that then began to grip much of urban (and largely Black) culture and now dominate it.



I have and have had many Black Detroiters as clients. I respect that many of them are very religious and G-d-fearing. But there’s a disconnect. I’ll have a client who tells me he or she goes to Church every Sunday and believes “the Lord” will take care of him or her. But this same person will tell me he or she has three or more kids with three or more different sex partners, none of whom they ever married. Did G-d and the preacher tell you to sleep around and raise kids who don’t have a father in their lives, don’t know how to act like a man, or–for girls–be treated by one? Did G-d tell you to teach your kids that it’s okay to live on welfare and listen to hip-hop glorifying drugs, murder, and otherwise despicable and anti-social behavior? That is the bankruptcy no one will ever fix because it starts at home. And the broken “homes” in Detroit–many of them–consist of womb donors who teach their kids that nutrition is Mountain Dew or red pop and education is learning how to get public entitlements and vote for Obama and other demagogues and corruptocrats like Kwame Kilpatrick (who would be re-elected today as Detroit Mayor if he were not in prison), no matter what they do.



You can trace this social decline in the City of Detroit in the history of just one house in the city, as I noted on this site a few years ago. A once-grand house in a once-fancy neighborhood in the city went from being owned by a U.S. Senator and prominent Ford execs in the early 1900s to a decrepit $7,000 house in foreclosure and involved in mortgage fraud by a Detroit cop in the early 2000s.



Contrary to popular belief, the death of Detroit is not about the death of the auto industry. It is about the racism of Black America. And the decline of Black morals and civilization in America’s once-most-glorious industrial city. It’s about a culture that is failing. And, make no mistake, White America now resembles this breakdown in Black America (on every level) more and more each day.



Those things will probably never recover. And Kevin Orr and Detroit’s bankruptcy can’t fix them.



Until Detroit’s largely Black population regains its moral and social footing–its values–there will be no rebirth for the City of Detroit.

Can We Save America?

A very interesting post from www.badeagle.com about some of America's problems. This follows this post about Mitt Romney's election problems.  This follows this post about some of the music that was poplular during 2011. This follows THIS POST about some movies that have been released over the past few years that you might have missed! This all follows this post about guidelines to chosing good movies to watch yourself!

Can We Save America?


by David Yeagley



Is there any hope for America? As we approach the new year, 2012, do we have any reason to expect anything different or better in the future? Is there any evidence that anything will change in Washington?



No, no, and no. Only the most naïve and blind person would think that America will recover. Politicians and conservative radio talkers may campaign and entertain with the idea of restoration; optimism is wondrously marketable–especially in times of horrible social depression; there may be a great temptation to hope, and even a moral obligation to make efforts towards rejuvenation. Yet, the basic steps required to restore America will never be taken. Human nature abuses everything America has ever stood for. We deny ourselves the remedy. Recovery is disallowed.



I would suggest a few steps, for the record, nevertheless. And these suggestions will never be more than fleeting notions of reality. What our society needs is immediate consequences for wrong doing, not enabling, not encouragement, not reward. Just consequence. How likely is that? So, call these suggestions something like the last nail in the coffin of dead hope.



Voting rights must be limited to qualified people.





The secret of Communism’s success in this country is the voting populace. The right to vote, in the name of “democracy” or “equality,” is actually a delusion, and secures the very lowest, more inefficient, self-destructive policies for the country. Mass voting destroys the character of the candidates, and, in order to secure the most votes, the politician promises the most material prosperity to the most people. The United States government has been growing like a cancer since the Civil War, and more and more people have become dependent on the government.



Therefore, the solution is to disallow most people from voting. Most people are uninformed, misinformed, selfish, and unfit even to be citizens, let alone voting citizens–with a say in any government whatsoever. There must be rigid qualification for voting.



The Right to Reproduction must be Limited



This isn’t about abortion. This is about sterilization. Sterilization is logical and rational in the matter of population control. Abortion is not socially rational. Mass sterilization is. A person who brings another human being into this world knowing that he cannot provide for it, knowing that the government will pay for it, is a criminal, and should lose all his freedom, and certainly his right to vote. No such offspring should ever be allowed to vote, either–unless he proves himself a very different kind of person.



Nothing is more useless and demoralizing that dependents who believe it is their right to be dependent, dependents who aggrandize their welfare expectations to the level of desert and honor. Dependents have bankrupted our society, and should be punished by a natural corrective process.



America must have right to war.



A nation cannot survive without the ability to declare war on other nations, and to destroy the government of another nation. The United States government has robbed America of not only the dignity and honor of victory, but the necessity of self-defense. America is wholly incapable of any significant aggression or defense at this time. There are Third World countries anxious to break America’s power, and the opportunity for them to do so increases daily. There appears no victory on the horizon for America’s forces anywhere, not even on our own borders. America is no longer allowed to know what victory is.



America must control citizenship.



The privileges of citizenship are not natural, not inevitable, and not rights. The each must be earned, over time, with due effort. The idea that anyone can simply cross the national border and be a citizen is completely irrational. Only politicians advocate such an idea–for obvious reasons. They see more voters. The social immaturity generated by the American political system must end.



In her last article, Ann Coulter notes that illegal immigration and Obamacare, if not remedied in the next couple of years, will essentially end the America we know (and which most of us have loved). “America will begin its ineluctable descent into becoming a worthless Western European country, with rotten health care, no money for defense and ever-increasing federal taxes to support the nanny state,” Coulter prophecies.



Politicians will certainly not remedy either illegal immigration or Obamacare. It isn’t going to happen. The current is to strong, for too long, in the wrong direction. That’s just the way it is.



Rush Limbaugh used to say, “It’s over!” back when the Clintons were in office. It was. It’s been over, since the Civil War. The federal government became something it was never supposed to be. The overthrow of America, by its own immature people and selfish politicians, was inevitable.



Conservative commentary is just part of the entertainment business. Patriotism is passé. Love of country is a Romantic notion of the 19th century. The country has simply changed, already, into something the fathers would disown. America is a dream of the past. The future will not see her again. Historical circumstance is inimitable, and ignorance has prevailed–ignorance generated by selfish, irreligious hedonists.

DEMOCRATS' IDEAL VOTER: ILLEGAL ALIEN, SINGLE MOTHER, CONVICTED FELON

A very interesting post from http://www.anncoulter.com/ about America's demographic change. This follows this post about purging illegal immigrants from voting.  This follows this post about the Black Caucus hurting Black Americans with their immigration stand. This follows this post about how to Report Illegal Immigrants! For more that you can do to get involved click HERE and you can read this very interesting book HERE!

DEMOCRATS' IDEAL VOTER: ILLEGAL ALIEN, SINGLE MOTHER, CONVICTED FELON









Before taking the oath of office, Barack Obama vowed to fundamentally transform the United States. He has certainly done so. For example, Obama has:



-- destroyed the job market;



-- sent billions of taxpayer dollars to Wall Street, companies overseas, his campaign contributors and public sector unions;



-- forced the passage of a wildly unpopular national health care law on a purely partisan vote;



-- come out for gay marriage;



-- refused to enforce laws on illegal immigration;



-- eliminated the work requirement for welfare.



How can a country that elected Ronald Reagan have Obama tied in the polls with Mitt Romney?



The answer is: It's not the same country.



Similarly, when two successful, attractive multimillionaire women in California can't beat a geriatric leftist like Jerry Brown or an old prune like Barbara Boxer, that's not the same state that elected Ronald Reagan twice, either.



The same process that has already destroyed California is working its way through the entire country.



While conservatives have been formulating carefully constructed arguments, liberals have been playing a long-term game to change the demographics of America to get an electorate more to their liking.



They will do incalculable damage to the nation and to individual citizens, but Democrats will have an unbeatable majority. Just like California, the United States is on its way to becoming a Third World, one-party state.



Teddy Kennedy's 1965 Immigration Act was expressly designed to change the ethnic composition of America to make it more like Nigeria, considered more susceptible to liberal demagogues.



Since 1965, instead of taking immigrants that replicate the country's existing ethnic mix, we've been admitting mostly immigrants from the Third World. At the same time, people from the countries that sent immigrants to this country for its first several centuries have been barred.





Eighty-five percent of immigrants now come from "developing countries." (How are they ever going to develop if their people are all on the dole over here?)



The "browning of America" is not a natural process. It's been artificially imposed by Democrats who are confident of their abilities to turn Third World immigrants into government patrons.



It's worked. According to the Center for Immigration Studies, 57 percent of all immigrant households in the U.S. get cash, Medicaid, housing or food benefits from the government -- compared with 39 percent of native households. The highest rates are for immigrants from the Dominican Republic (82 percent), Mexico and Guatemala (tied at 75 percent).



Isn't the idea to get immigrants with special skills? If you can't even get a job, by definition, you do not have a special skill. Other than voting Democrat.



There's a strange asymmetry in how this matter can be discussed. Liberals and ethnic activists boast about how America would be better if it were more Latino, but no one else is allowed to say, "We like the ethnic mix as it is."



That would be racist. By now no one even tries to disagree.



Liberals' other plan to expand the Democratic rolls has been to destroy the family.



Every time someone gets a divorce, Democrats think: We got a new Democratic voter! Every time a child is born out of wedlock: We got a new Democratic voter! And if the woman has an abortion -- we got a new Democratic voter!



According to recent polls, Obama has a negative job approval rating of 45 to 49 percent. The reason the polls are tied between Obama and Romney is that single women support Obama by a 2-to-1 margin. The Democrats' siren song to single women is: Don't worry, the government will be your husband.



Our prisons are overflowing with the results of the Democrats' experiment of subsidizing illegitimacy. Children raised by a single mothers commit 72 percent of juvenile murders, 60 percent of rapes, have 70 percent of teenaged births, commit 70 percent of suicides and are 70 percent of high school dropouts.



Controlling for socioeconomic status, race and place of residence, the strongest predictor of whether a person will end up in prison is being raised by a single parent. (The second strongest predictor is having a tattoo.)



A 1990 study by the Progressive Policy Institute showed that after controlling for single motherhood, the difference in black and white crime disappeared.



Human beings in God's image are being born into ruined lives at rates that boggle the mind. Illegitimate children are never given a chance, their lives destroyed by this social pathology. And Democrats say: More Democratic voters!



Throw in felons voting, and the Democrats have an unbeatable majority.
