JUST 10 EASY QUESTIONS!!!

hello america!!! all of the following is just my imparting the truth but, first this---it has been said that we are a 'caring an forgiving people' & that's where i'm coming from, however, this is not about 'black or white', it's about 'political party'...

1.....should people of color care about & forgive those that had held them in slavery???
2.....should people of color care about & forgive those that had fought a war to keep them in slavery???
3.....should people of color care about & forgive those that had refused them welfare???
4.....should people of color care about & forgive those that had denied them the right to vote???
5.....should people of color care about & forgive those that had fought against the civil rights act???
6.....should people of color care about & forgive those that had fought against school segregation???
7.....should people of color care about & forgive those that had birthed the 'kkk party'???
8.....should people of color care about & forgive those that don't do anything for them???
9.....should people of color care about & forgive those that only acknowledge them when it's election time or when they need their support for or against a bill???
10...should people of color care about & forgive those that have allowed their communities to be over-run with gangs, drugs, crimes &, poverty???

good people, you can answer the above questions in any manner you wish to (in the comments section), however, to all american people of color, please do your own homework---under a black dem president for 8 long years, you were worse off than you are now under a white repub president who's not even been in office for one full year &, the numbers back that statement up 100%...

OBAMA, YOU'RE STEEPED IN DENIAL & LIES!!!

hello america!!! it saddens me to see & hear obama trying to take credit for the recent growth of our economy when, in fact, he did everything he could to keep us from growing---&, for you doubters, i'll break it down for you...

but first, i posted the following on a friday-1/20/17 &, every word of it is still true...
http://edagener.blogspot.com/2017/01/facts-about-obamas-final-jobs-numbers.html

& please, dont' forget, obama & company didn't start counting jobs growth until the recession was officially declared over 15-18 months after he was first sworn in

the following is the gdp (on a yearly basis) from 1990-2016...
https://www.statista.com/statistics/188165/annual-gdp-growth-of-the-united-states-since-1990/

hopefully you will have noticed that our gdp growth never went above 2.6 under obama

just so you know, the gdp rate under trump is---1st qtr/1.2%; 2nd qtr/3.1%; 3rd qtr/3.3%

the following comes our very own bureau of labor statistics (bls) from jan 2007-present...
https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/LNS14000000

also, don't forget that the bls changed the way they calculated unemployment jan 2010 by omitting several different groups thus lowering the rate automatically to the benefit of obama---yeah, he changed the goal-posts in the middle of the game 

obamas regulations caused jobs & our gdp to remain dormant---obamacare caused people to lose their jobs &/or have their hours reduced---obamas epa regulations caused jobs to be lost---obamas war on coal caused jobs to be lost---obamas trades deals caused jobs to be lost---obamas policies in our waters caused jobs to be lost---everything that obama touched caused us jobs &/or misery---hell, just look at his 'green energy program' & how many company's he gave our money to that failed &/or are failing causing us to lose jobs coupled with misery...
http://dailysignal.com/2012/10/18/president-obamas-taxpayer-backed-green-energy-failures/

bush added about $5 trillion to our debt in his 8 years---obama added about $10 trillion to our debt in his 8 years & yet, obama called bush 'irresponsible & unpatriotic'---here's a video of it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvWg_v8lVmk

i really wish there were no more financial obama-negatives to reveal but, the list seems endless---so, why not ask those 'seniors' how obama aided them with the cost of living adjustment---just to be fair, i went back to 1975 & you can it see for yourself---remember, obamas dates are 1/20/09-1/20/17
https://www.ssa.gov/oact/cola/colaseries.html
do you remember obamas 'cash for clunkers' program &, while i could put up other links to support the programs failure, i like this one
https://www.usnews.com/opinion/economic-intelligence/2014/08/14/obamas-cash-for-clunkers-stimulus-bailout-failed-car-companies

do you remember that $50 billion 'shovel ready' infrastructure part of the obamas 'american jobs act'??? you know, the one that failed & he joked about that failure---you can read all about it from cagw

https://www.cagw.org/thewastewatcher/shovel-ready-jobs-swindle

i can remember obama with the chevy volt (he actually said he'd buy one when he left office)---just so you know, the chevy volt failed...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXuqZcVB0Gk

he touted caterpillar & they laid thousands of workers...
http://www.nbcnews.com/id/29170141/ns/business-us_business/t/caterpillar-ceo-contradicts-obama-sees-layoffs/#.WivT1VWnHIU&, there's this
http://dailycaller.com/2012/07/13/will-obama-get-away-with-it/

what nobody talks about is our recession could have been avoided had people (to inlude obama) listened to bush's warnings
https://georgewbush-whitehouse.archives.gov/news/releases/2008/10/20081009-10.html

&, just so you know, obama signed the dodd/frank bill into law which trump wants to have repealed https://www.investopedia.com/terms/d/dodd-frank-financial-regulatory-reform-bill.asp
we also had a decline in drilling under obama & yes, there are far too many articles & charts to post here so i decided on this one
http://www.factcheck.org/2012/10/obamas-drilling-denials/

there's also the mass numbers of illegal aliens obama not only allowed into our country, he encouraged it & yes, it's cost us dearly in terms of finances & misery
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illegal_immigration_to_the_United_States

&, there's this
http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/record-135-billion-a-year-for-illegal-immigration-average-8075-each-25000-in-ny/article/2635757

to my fellow black people---
can you remember when obama promised our country all of those jobs??? well look at this gov't chart & tell me where they were/are...
http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/record-135-billion-a-year-for-illegal-immigration-average-8075-each-25000-in-ny/article/2635757

black home ownership also fell under obama https://www.nbcnews.com/news/nbcblk/black-homeowners-struggle-housing-market-recovers-n781311
america, obama did nothing 'good' for our economy &, if i'm wrong or missed something, please inform me in the 'comments' section...

AMERICA, ALL THIS IN LESS THAN A YEAR???

hello america!!! let's start with this---you don't have to like trump nor do have to respect him, however, regardless of how you feel, he is our president & that office should be respected by all...

trump is not your 'typical every day', 'smooth talking', 'promise you the world' kind of politician---he's 'blunt', 'forceful', 'tells it like it' is &, above all else, 'a man of his word'---everything he's done &/or has tried to do is what all he campaigned on---which president before him ever did that??? for that matter, which politician, once elected, ever kept his word??? while i'm asking questions, permit me to ask this, which public figure ever faced as much negative media coverage as trump has faced??? i could walk from allentown pa to the himalayas & back before you can come up with a name to any of those 3 questions...

the dems & established repubs (rinos) don't like trump simply because he's a threat to the way they've been doing business---all for themselves & the hell with you (have you ever known of a senator or congressman to retire from office broke???)---look at it this way, if trump is successful in making america great again & fulfilling his campaign promises, wouldn't that prove to you that what those before him were doing was not for you or our country???

look, trumps accomplishments have redirected the way our country is being allowed to grow---stocks are up; consumer confidence is up; unemployment down; home-ownership is up; our military is getting stronger; company's are returning to our shores to do business; gangs are being rounded up by the feds; drug-dependency is finally getting the interest & funds it needs to combat it; our veterans are starting to receive the care they so richly deserve in a more timely manner; dangerous illegal aliens being rounded up & jailed &/or deported; illegal border-crossings are down; stronger vetting of foreigners is keeping us safer; isis is actually on the run; we're getting out of the bad deals; we're quick to aid those in need because of natural disasters; other country's are actually giving us respect;  & hey, just think, trump took office jan 20th & he immediately reversed the direction our county was heading---&, before i forget, the tax & infrastructure bills (when signed into law) will be an even bigger boost for all of america...

we can argue about the way trump talks but hey, you'd have to be a 'special kind of idiot' or a 'fake-news die-hard' not to recognize his results---& yes, we still have a long way to go to reach that point where all americans can pursue that 'american dream' but hey, we're closing in on it...

&, to my fellow black people---if america prospers, so do you---black unemployment is 7.3% (&, just so you know, the last time it was lower was april 2000---7.0% &, trump hit that sep 2017)---&, fyi, the tax bill will help you (as an individual, a family or a business) more than any dem wants to admit as will his infrastructure bill help our decaying communities (dems won't admit that either)...

good people, you'll never become more educated or informed if you only read the 'headlines' or listen to the 'talking points'---you owe it to yourselves to do your own homework...

& STILL NO OUTRAGE OR COVERAGE!!! WHY NOT???

hello america!!! exactly 2 months ago, i posted this CLICK HERE & today, i'm sad to say, nothing has changed---wait a minute, a lot has changed...

we have this from the newamerican---HERE...

&, we have this from theroot---HERE...

&, we have new numbers regarding the senseless homicides in the 6 communities i'm following...

chicago (ytd)---636 total homicides of which 587 were by gunshot/489 black homicides/109 hispanic homicides/police killed 11-wounded 10 per http://heyjackass.com/category/2017-stats/

baltimore (ytd)---322 total homicides of which 280 were by gunshot/272 black homicides/3 hispanic homicides per http://data.baltimoresun.com/news/police/homicides/index.php?

la county (ytd)---575 total homicides of which 434 were by gunshot/181 black homicides/315 hispanic homicides/police killed 39 per http://homicide.latimes.com/year/2017

jacksonville (ytd)---123 total homicides of which 91 were by gunshot/83 black homicides/3 hispanic homicides/police killed 7 per http://jacksonville.com/homicides

milwaukee (ytd)---113 total homicides of which 102 were by gunshot/94 black homicides/6 hispanic homicides per https://projects.jsonline.com/apps/Milwaukee-Homicide-Database/

st louis (ytd)---190 total homicides of which 172 were by gunshot/173 black homicides/1 hispanic homicide per http://www.slmpd.org/images/Homicide_Stats_for_Website.pdf

ytd totals for just those 6 communities are...
1,959 total homicides/1,666 by gunshot/1,292 black homicides/437 hispanic homicides/police killed at least 57

sadly, what hasn't changed is the deafening silence surrounding these senseless killings by our 'so-called' leaders, our pro athletes, the media, the various groups, by you, etc...

&, just think, this is but a minute fraction of our whole country...

THE DEMS ARE FULL OF CRAP!!!

hello america!!! i find it very ironic that none of the dems seemed to care about our national debt when obama ran it up by $10 trillion dollars---nor are they concerned with how much of our money special council mueller is allowed to spend for his investigating the trump/russia allegations---nor are they concerned with how much money illegal aliens are costing us---nor are they concerned with how much money obamacare is costing us as individuals & as a country---nor are they concerned with the 'slush fund' the irs uses to pay off claims of sexual harassment & other things---plus, there's a host of other 'concerns' they don't care about...

but now, we're supposed to believe that they're suddenly concerned about the tax bill adding $1 trillion dollars over 10 years to it under trump & hey, nobody honestly knows if the tax bill will even add to our national debt...

just so you can see what the senate & house bills offer, check this out from the daily signal...
http://dailysignal.com/2017/12/03/1-chart-differences-house-senate-tax-reform-bills/

quit letting the dems mislead you...

THE TAX BILL IS A GOOD THING!!!

hello america!!! let's see if i got this right---all i've heard from the dems during the senate tax cuts debates is; it isn't a tax cut for the middle-class & yet, they offered an amendment to make those same middle-class tax cuts PERMANENT---perhaps they can convince me that what i saw & heard them arguing isn't them arguing it---good luck with that...

good people, i watched cspan2 from day one of the senate tax cuts debates & proposals &, i feel as if i'm as qualified as any 'so-called-expert' to comprehend & explain what all i saw & heard PERIOD!!! &, what i witnessed is a travesty---dem after dem kept saying that the bill would create a burden on the middle-class; make the wealthy wealthier; & add to the deficit (they so conveniently failed to say that that would be over a 10-year period) &, that the bill in it's present form was not a tax cut for the middle class people of america---if you were stupid enough to listen to them, this bill was a 'death sentence' on the middle-class & 'big boost' to company's & the wealthy---what a humongous bunch of crap...

in 100% truth, the dem thinking is---if the rich are going to get richer, the hell with anything that will help the middle class---that's the equivalent of a rich man coming to your block & saying he wants to give everybody on your block $100.00 but, he/she can't because a few of you feel those that are better off than others shouldn't get that $100.00---so, if the dems had their way, nobody would get the $100.00---america, that's just 'stinkin-thinkin'...

as divided as our great country is, what's supposed to be good for one should be good for all---hey, isn't that the same bs the dems told you when they rammed obamacare down our throats??? the only problem with that is (&, i'll just list a few)---the dems didn't want it for themselves; the unions didn't want it; the medical field that supported it didn't want it; the affluent didn't want it; main-stream-media didn't want it; &, perhaps the most revealing of all is, obama didn't want it for himself, relatives &/or his friends---BUT HEY, IT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU!!! for you idiots, that's akin to saying i want universal healthcare for you as long as i don't have to get it---which is another way of saying, we want a 'higher minimum wage' & yet, we want our interns to work for us for free---are you really that stupid???

yes, some of you are &, my own people of color continue to elect these dems that only offer us 'lip-sevice' & yet, do nothing to actually help us or our country---biggest case in point is chicago, il---people of color are killing one another at an unprecedented rate & all we do is re-elect the same dems based on their false promises---what in the hell has chicago ever done for our county or people of color in the last few decades with a dem mayor??? there are far too many other communities that follow that same vein of 'not doing' & yet, 'promise us' the world---WHEN WILL WE LEARN???

look, when the dems argue about the tax bills, you really need to be concerned with what they really mean for you & your family & disregard the dem talking points which never change...

WE NEED TO LEAD OURSELVES!!!

hello america!!! allentown pa has had 17 homicides (YTD) & the police are responsible for only 1 of them (the person they killed was in a car ramming their cars & trying to run them over) which, by true math, leaves 16 homicides that we just don't talk about---just so you know, we don't talk about the senseless carnage we inflict on one another but hey, let a cop kill one of us (justified or not) & we bug out...

we have become desensitized to 'us' killing 'us' &, other than trump, extremely few of our 'so-called leaders' even discuss it---blm, the media, 'big-named' affluent people &, other groups fail to talk about what we are doing to one another, however, they all find time to show up when a cop does the killing---hell, even then, we react/vent the wrong way by burning our own communities down which is the same twisted logic as 'i'm mad at you so i'll hurt myself'...

what 'good' has been accomplished since the death of freddie gray in baltimore??? all that destruction & hate---for what??? baltimore has had 304 homicides (YTD) of which 263 were black & 3 hispanic but, you don't hear crap about them---the media & 'big-shots' focused on freddie gray & they sensationalized it to boost their false narrative about massive police brutality within our communities---hey, i can even remember congressman elijah cummings marching down the streets of baltimore, arm-in-arm, during the freddie gray uprisings & hey, i haven't seen or heard from him since (guess we have to wait for another cop killing another of ours)...

good people, please, don't get me wrong---we do have cops that exercise their authority much more aggressively than they should (for many reasons) & they should be held accountable for whatever 'wrong-doing' they do PERIOD---the flip-side of that is, we can't (& shouldn't) condemn all of them based on the negative actions of a few---if you do, you're filled with that same 'stinkin-thinkin' that if a few black people do negative things, than all black people do them & hey, we've been fighting against that sick logic for far too long---whether you agree or not, we need our cops &, the vast majority of them do a superb job of policing our communities...

what we should be talking about is what we are doing to one another & no amount of pro-athletes kneeling will ever change that---whoops, they're kneeling in protest but not for that---they're protesting police brutality against people of color which, in reality, is not as big a problem as we're led to believe & the numbers back that up (fyi---606 chicago homicides 'YTD' of which 468 of them were black & 105 of them hispanic---the cops have killed 10 people & wounded 10 people) & hey, those numbers are re-played out all over our country...

we, as a people of color, are our worst enemy---we've allowed the gangs, drugs & guns to excessively infiltrate our communities &, unfortunately, we willfully remain silent whenever something bad occurs (which is 24/7) (& then, we ask, where were/are the police???)...

another thing we do is, we continue to vote for democrat mayors to run our communities that promise us the world &, once elected, they ignore our needs until the next election---think what you will but, other than trump, when was the last time a president sent in the feds to try & clean up the gang & drug problems??? just think on this---the last time chicago had a repub mayor was 1923 &, the last time detroit had a repub mayor was 1963---look at where the 'windy city' & 'motor city' are now & cops killing people of color is far from their major concerns (unless you listen to the media, etc...)---perhaps this may be easier for you to follow; if any part of white america is suffering, people of color in those same parts will suffer even more...

good people, we allow ourselves to be incited by the media that fan the flames of hatred & racism &, by following their lead, we are further dividing ourselves from one another & hey, nobody seems to have the time or patience to look beyond the headlines---on that note, not a one of the 6 police officers charged for the death of freddie gray has been found guilty---some were actually found 'not guilty' of all charges & others had their charges 'dropped'---that also is something that's been repeating itself all across our nation, i.e; former st louis police officer, jason stockley was also found 'not guilty' of all charges stemming from the death of anthony smith---we're quick to condemn & react but slow to the ways of justice...

just so you'll know, please check this out from chicago, illinois...

2012---514 homicides/392 black-70 hispanic---police killed 8/wounded 49
2013---455 homicides/357 black-83 hispanic---police killed 13/wounded 30
2014---464 homicides/353 black-67 hispanic---police killed 17/wounded 28
2015---510 homicides/401 black-81 hispanic---police killed 9/wounded 16
2016---807 homicides/626 black-133 hispanic---police killed 11/wounded 14
2017---606 homicides/468 black-105 hispanic---police killed 10/wounded 10
                                                                                                                                                   

6 years under a dem mayor (rahm emanuel, 2011-present)---3,356 total homicides---2,597 of them black---539 hispanic---police killed 69 people/wounded 147 & our problem is with the police??? are you really that daft??? you all can send 'prayers up' for others but not your own??? where is the outrage for the atrocities we inflict on ourselves??? where's the media, blm, the women's group, etc, etc??? in 8 years under obama, he didn't even bring to light the problems we create for one another, however, he was so quick to point out that the cops 'acted stupidly' when they arrested his friend in massachusetts (the start of our national hatred towards cops)---other 'FAKE' politicians have since jumped on that same 'band wagon' & we're shooting cops at an alarming rate...

while just 1 unjustified killing of anybody is unacceptable, the police actions pale in the face of what we are doing to one another---true math will never lie but, there are those that will purposely distort the facts to suit their agendas & hey, those are the ones that wish you no good...

while our 'pro-players' have the right to kneel during the playing of our national anthem, that doesn't make their actions right---& no, we don't address their reasons for 'kneeling', we're too caught up in the 'respect/disrespect' angle of their actions & that's all the media focuses on---i must admit that when i am at home & hear our anthem, i do not stand up but i do when i am in public & yes, i do remove my hat & cross my heart---i do know that our pro-sports squads serve a lot of our community needs but, i just think we would be better served by them if they actually went to our communities where we're so willing to take the life of another---

before i close, will anybody question the following:::
1...just how are all these guns magically appearing in our down-trodden communities???
2...just why won't the authorities stop it????

&, i'm sure, you have your own questions but hey, when it's easier for a kid to buy a street gun than it is for him/her to graduate, our problems aren't with the police...
