I congratulate my “Democratic” friends and their leadership for finally recognizing that Black lives matter. I just do not understand why they so loudly proclaim that we Republicans, who have valued Black lives for years, should also acknowledge that Black lives matter. We know that ALL lives matter. It is the Democratic party that vehemently opposed the abolition of Black slavery. It was the Republican Party that fought for and won that (14th) Amendment to the Constitution. And let’s see - which Party was it that had KKK members in it? It is the Democratic Party that has torn apart Black families through their welfare programs. It is the Democratic party that advocates so strongly for the killing of Black babies through Planned Parenthood. When will they extend their new-found value for Black lives to Black babies? It is the Democratic Party that doesn't allow Blacks to defend themselves in the inner cities by denying them their 2nd Amendment rights - as a result innocent Black citizens are killed daily. The only true interest that the Democratic party has in Black lives is to use Black issues and Black bosses to enslave Black citizens to their controlling ideology and power. It is time for Black America to throw off the Democratic yoke and rejoice in the liberty Republicans achieved for them. Embrace liberty, family values, and the Republican Party as Ben Carson has so well illustrated. Obama has been nothing but a Democratic Boss under whom Black unemployment and welfare slavery has dramatically increased - the same will happen with Hillary Clinton! Black lives do matter - to Republicans! Once again I congratulate my Democratic friends but have to impatiently wait for them to extend their condescending graciousness to the rest of America's Black citizens whom the Republicans freed from slavery so many years ago. Wake up Black America!
