And it’s a legit question. I’m asking for a serious answer.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Apologies for my first post DK...I was pissed after thinking about WalMart/La Raza/Sharpton and your post angered me a bit more.

As for your initial question, I see plenty of people in the mainstream claiming that they speak for the vast majority of black people.  They are self-proclaimed, for the most part, but like Sharpton, they inject themselves into situations to argue race from the black &quot;victim&quot; perspective and they typically have large followings/significant media coverage.  

I just think it is somewhat odd that many non-white racial groups still feel the need to throw their race in your face whether it is a legitimate issue or not.  Gotta love that race card, it is getting a lot of use these days.  You don&#039;t see many mainstream white leaders (none that I can think of, actually) arguing the &quot;white&quot; position on major news events, do you?  Are there white versions of Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson that you see in the news almost daily?  Of course not...to do anything in the name of white people would be widely cursed as racist yet there is significant discrimination against whites and it has been mainstreamed.  Hypocritical, no?

Bottom line, personal responsibility goes a long way.  With rare exceptions, the victim status that many people operate under in this country is self imposed and unproductive.  Constantly injecting race when one doesn&#039;t have a real argument gets pretty old and I am tired of seeing it.  I am also tired of seeing my country and its culture (yes, there is such a thing as -American- culture) getting sold to the highest bidder.

I respect any person, of any color, that takes personal responsibility.  I have nothing but contempt for eternal &quot;victims&quot; and their entitlement mentalities.</description>

		<description>edit:  that NOT all who come here ....

Also - note the 250 deportations per month of criminals back to El Salvador.
AND - the mention of how many of those deported gang members return to the US.

Enforce the laws NOW.  Build the fence NOW.</description>

		<description>On the topic of shamnesty &amp; open borders:

A news story today, http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,290736,00.html ,  highlights the growing problem of the latin American gang MS-13.

Previous reports about the growing voracity of the gang include these comments:

&quot;Rodrigo Avila, El Salvador&#039;s vice minister of security, says that an average of 250 criminals a month are deported to El Salvador from the USA and that a dozen of them are gang members.&quot;  - USA Today,  2-23-2005

&quot;By the 1990s, U.S. law enforcement was taking note of the group. Many members were deported to El Salvador, where they set up branches and, in many cases, returned to the USA. There are 8,000 to 10,000 members of MS-13 in 31 states, says the National Drug Intelligence Center, an arm of the Justice Department.&quot;  -  USA Today, 2-23-2005

MS-13 is not solely comprised of immigrants as they grow in size by also absorbing legal US citizens.  But these stories are seemingly not widely spoken of and an unwelcome sign of proof to liberals that all who come here are the &#039;poor hard-working souls looking for a better life&#039; that the left would like us to believe.</description>

		<description>Or we loose the &quot;Moral Authority&quot; to fight for anybody.

I have brought this up everytime Al Sharpton comes up in a topic. 

Al Sharpton and others of the so called Black Leadership want to be considered Moral Authorities. The USA is a Republic we have a Democracy, Majority Rule with Minority Protection. No one has the right to cram their Moral&#039;s down our collective throats we are Free People. The Taliban had the Moral&#039;s Police, in place in Afghanistan they used sticks in the Public Square, they would rap women with them if their shoes clicked to loud on the ground, they would rap men their sticks if they didn&#039;t like the grooming status of their beards. The Morals Police, thing didn&#039;t work out to well for the Taliban, remember what happened to them? 

This above quote from Al Sharpton, is the straightest statement, he has made about his intentions. Al Sharpton&#039;s motivation, Why not be brazen, nobody in the MSM is pointing any of this out, and nobody is trying to stop him.</description>

I believe his business card reads:

		<description>This just gives me another reason not to shop at Wally World. I have disliked this company for a long time for many reasons including: 1. They buy a very high percentage of their products from China sending Billions of Dollars to fund a country which is no friend of the USA, steals our trade secrets and patents, manipulates their currency, and plays by no international rules. 2. Shopping there is not a pleasant experience, and 3. They fight to put their stores in beautiful rural settings spoiling the character of the whole area and angering many local people. 

It may provide very low cost merchandise for low income people, but it comes at a price for our country as a whole.</description>
