“Nation of Cowards” by Eric Holder

Our new affirmative action attorney general recently called Americans a “nation of cowards” because of our inability to directly confront race issues. True for the majority of white Americans but not all. No Mr. Holder I am one of the victims of the 1970’s bussing social engineering programs in Pontiac, Michigan and have never been nor will I ever be afraid to honestly discuss racial issues. I have seen racial issues first hand in my life and I will discuss them here and now as honestly as I can with you if you care to read this insipid little blog. But first for our readers a little background.

Eric Holder grew up in the Bronx and attended Columbia for both his bachelors in history and law degree. History? He was Deputy Attorney General under Janet Reno. He was heavily involved in the expansion of the Kenneth Star investigations of Clinton and the pardon of financial fugitive Marc Rich. Holder supported pardons for Weather Underground fugitives Linda Evans and Susan Rosenberg, and clemency for 16 FALN terrorist.

Most troubling to me Eric Holder was one of the members of the Clinton team that developed laws pertaining to computer security. The same law and thought process that stopped the FBI from investigating and downloading files from the “20th hijacker” Zacarias Moussaoui’s computer when he was arrested 4 weeks before 9-11. At the very least Mr. Holder has exhibited poor judgment clouded by radical political leanings. At the worst his poor judgment is indirectly responsible for millions of deaths and two wars that may have been prevented if the FBI would have been allowed to download those files in Zacarias Moussaoui’s computer. Either way his ideology is very narrow minded view of the world that is inflexible and some would say irrational.

So let’s get down to the issue at hand a frank and honest discussion of race. First would be the most popular statistic about black families and that would be 70% of black children are born out of wedlock. That would compare to 42.6% for Hispanics and 26% for whites. A far cry from the Jim Crow days when only 23.5% of black children faced the world without a father. Also notable is the decline from the 1970’s in the birth rate for black mothers from 96 per 1,000 to 60.6. Now in this race discussion we have to ask ourselves what has changed since the Jim Crow days of the segregated nation to destroy the black and a lot of white families.

Civil rights, the Great Society programs, increased welfare programs of every kind and scope from medical, housing, food, affirmative action, clothing and many I have no idea about. All designed to help the poor and Negros. And what is the effect of these programs? They replace the father as the provider of the family. It’s really a simple mathematical regression analysis problem. As the benefits increase to divorced and unwed mothers the more divorced and unwed mothers there will be. When welfare reform is passed like it was under Clinton penalizing indiscriminate breeding of children and Planned Parenthood clinics sprout up throughout the urban landscape like liquor billboards the benefit of large family’s decreases and fewer children are born. Simple regression analysis. My recommendation to restore the proper position of the black man as the head of the black family? End all government payments to unwed mothers. Do that and the black family will return to the zenith it enjoyed under the old evil segregated America. It’s really quite simple Mr. Holder.

The second problem we see every night on every news cast across America is the black crime rate. Blacks make up 13% of the American population and are 49.4% of state prisoners. In comparison whites make up 66% of the population and make up 28.9% of the state prisoner population. Or to look at it another way white males are incarcerated at a rate of 4.4%, Hispanics 16.7% and blacks 28.6%. Why the disparity?

Richard J. Herrnstein and Charles Murray had a frank discussion in 1994 about intelligence and race when they wrote The Bell Curve that must have been ignored by Mr. Holder and others in the elite circles of Washington. The book documented that crime was directly related to intelligence with other factors such as, surprise, the lack of a father in the home. The lower the IQ the more likely a person was to committee a crime. A pretty strait and direct correlation between low IQ and crime rates. Something every police man is familiar with, stupid criminals.

Of course there was one up tick in the crime rate in their studies and that was at the super intelligent plus 130 IQ end of the curve. There seems to be quite an increase in crime among the super intelligent people among us. Bernie Madoff, Charles Schumer, Bernard Ebbers, Michael Milken and hundreds of other brilliant people seem to have the god complex where the rules just don’t apply to themselves. They feel their superior intellect puts them above the rest of us and they cause an otherwise steady and predictable decline in crime among higher intelligence people to suddenly spike up at the very end of the bell curve. But with the exception of that small group of 130 IQ people the correlation between intelligence and IQ is stunningly clear and quite linier.

So Mr. Holder let’s really get this discussion down to the heart of the matter when it comes to race relations in this country. Blacks have an average IQ of 85 and whites 100. In the absence of genetic engineering and noting only 4.6% of blacks marry whites what can we do about it? Force white women to marry blacks? Inseminate all black women with white sperm? Let the discussion begin. As long as blacks are 15 IQ points lower than whites there will always be disparities in incomes and outcomes.

So let me give Mr. Holder the rest of the story as Paul Harvey was fond of saying. I was bussed across town in Pontiac Michigan in the early 70’s. This happened when I was in the 5th grade. At first all the kids thought is was no big deal. Most of us were told black kids were the same as white kids. Why all the fuss? The fist few days the parents protested outside Will Rodgers Elementary but eventually they left. In the classroom we looked at each other somewhat amused at the teachers making such a fuss over kids of different colors sitting next to each other.

As the novelty wore off the atmosphere slowly began to change. The occasional fight after school for fun and glory was replaced by a more prominent manifest among black students and their attitude toward white students. Slowly we began to realize that the black students had a “get even with whitey” attitude. They felt whites all had it great and had been cheating the black man for centuries. Quite puzzling to a lot of us lower income whites who received free lunches and bought groceries with food stamps. We thought we all got the same amount of food stamps but maybe the whites got more food stamps? What was that white privilege they were ranting about?

Slowly the easy going fun atmosphere was replaced by tension and occasional outburst of violence. Blacks of superior strength were fond of getting behind smaller white classmates and giving them a good shove in the back walking down the hall to the next class. As time passed and familiarity increased the violence and intimidation increased.

Which brings up the obvious question why was there bussing? Why would any decent society want to subject 10 year olds to a poor learning environment full of racial tension? Why would black parents want their children to be in a school full of academically superior students instead of their peers? Do black parents want their 10 year old to get an inferiority complex when it comes to academics at such an early age?

I can completely and categorically say bussing was a disaster for Pontiac, the children and the state of Michigan. Michigan is more segregated today than it was in 1970. Any white parent when they have children think about one thing only, where are the blacks and where do I need to live so my child can escape those awful schools. The numbers back up these parents concerns. In Chicago an almost 100% Hispanic and black school district 508 students were murdered in a 16 month period. Running a school like a prison is not good for students, teachers or the administration. What sane parent wants that for their children?

As the bussing experiment went on whites in Pontiac who didn’t initially move out slowly began to leave. The black on white intimidation and violence increased. The tension of going to school was the same tension you see in reality television shows like MSNBC Lockup where the film crew documents prison life. Educational standards dropped immediately with bussing. So did the grades of many white students. Many experimented with drugs to escape the drudgery and tension. Many got into fights. Everyday was like being in prison. You never knew which Negro or Negros group was going to snap and who would get jump or be forced to fight. The old teachers were slowly replaced with young ideological liberals looking to save the world believing in the dogma of the day. The administration was concerned about showing the social engineering was working and uninvolved in the classroom or the violent hallways.

By the ninth grade, four years plus of the experiment, it was all starting to fall apart. Most of the students reading scores had declined, drugs, rape and violence were always prevalent. Classrooms were sitting around and do nothing affairs. The only thing taken seriously by students, staff and the administration was sports. With the influx of Negro athletes the football and basketball teams improved dramatically. By 1974 in Pontiac white flight was slowly progressing. Finally it became a stampede. Parents began to put their children first and ideology second. They moved out of the city in ever increasing numbers. Today Pontiac is 72% black and 12% white. The once majority white city is a welfare drug ridden reminder of a failed social experiment so many years a go.

I look back at my four and a half years as time wasted in the classroom that cost me dearly latter on in life. I went into the 5th grade idealistic not having a care about race and came out in the 10th grade as a violent racist youth with a drug problem. Gays say that no one in their right mind would want to put up with the anti gay junk in our society if they were not truly gay. Likewise Mr. Holder for us “racist” who dare to speak the truth. I don’t enjoy having the knowledge I have acquired through reading and life experiences. I don’t like being ostracized by society. But I know what I know. I have a bachelors and masters. I know the facts both in the books and on the streets.

So Mr. Holder why was I and thousands of other children subjected to violence, lower standards and intimidation? I moved to a 99% white school district in Rochester and it was like going from hell to heaven. Of course I was a complete social outcast but I didn’t care. These kids cared about learning and it was a safe environment. I didn’t have to worry about who was going to stab me or when the next gang brawl was. And I was 14 years old. So Mr. Holder look at a 14 year old kid and tell me is he or she prepared to deal with these life and death issues in a rational manner? Of course not so why would any public official in their right mind want to subject any kid to this environment?

There was a reason for segregation. No one likes to talk about it. We all avoid it. To put it bluntly we are learning from hard experience what our fathers, grandfathers and great-grandfathers knew so many years ago. Oil and water don’t mix well and it never will. That’s the cold hard truth. If you can figure out a way to breed 100 IQ blacks then I am all for it. The only other way to make the races equal is to knock down white by any means necessary. And of course this has been the actions pursued by our politicians for decades.

High taxes, poor schools, political indoctrination of our children, blame whitey mentality, socialism all designed to enslave working white people into some perverse reverse slavery envisioned by our affirmative action president.

Thousands of other poor whites have been subjected to discrimination every time we encounter a government institution. In the military there were quotas on the number of whites who got this or that job. In college there were strict quotas on the amount of financial aid to whites. When applying for a job the government wants to know race so they can force these same businesses to discriminate against whites and force them to hire more minorities. White males have been singled out by every government agency everywhere as the ones to be denied this or that government benefit. After four years in the military the lesson was learned for myself. The government has never been for and will never be for poor whites. Success stories in America must come from other sectors. Poor white males need not apply.

So Mr. Holder I hope you don’t think of me as a cowardly American. I have been honest and forthcoming. If you truly care about Negros and not just about finding excuses and reasons to continually playing on white guilt and enslaving white people with your socialist beliefs then here are a few suggestions to help black folks.

• 1. End all government payments to unwed mothers. Do that and the unwed mother rate will drop 50% and you and your comrades will be social geniuses.
• 2. End affirmative action. Every white guy who sees a black in power looks at them as a stupid idiot who benefited from affirmative action until proven otherwise. Examples of proven otherwise would be listening to Bill Cosby or Clarence Thomas talk in a highly intelligent thoughtful manner. Sorry to report but listening to Obama speak just reinforces my opinion of him that he’s a 95 IQ affirmative action president who rode his skin color to the White House. Sorry dude but that’s just the honest truth. And when I see a black doctor or lawyer I run and look for a Seventh Day Adventist doctor and a Jewish lawyer. Just the truth. Get rid of affirmative action and let the chips fall where they may.
• 3. Legalize drugs and use the taxes to fund treatment and education programs. The war on drugs is a complete waste of time and money for both black and white communities. Time to end it.
• 4. Stop trying to rip off whites with your socialist programs. You think we are all stupid guilt ridden zombies but the truth is we are over it and the backlash of blacks showing their ass to the nation for the last 40 years is about to come down hard. Take a good look at Texas and South Carolina. Succession and a second civil war are just around the corner. We will not be enslaved into being your bitch, working our ass off to pay for your fat black ass to bitch about whitey for the next 40 years.
• 5. Stop bitching about the white man. Blacks in America have the highest standard of living anywhere in the world by far, no one even comes close. You want to live in Chad? Go for it. Just shut the hell up about slavery. Look dude we were all slaves at one time or another. Britons were slaves to the Romans. Italians were slaves to the Greeks. It happens. It’s been 144 years now. Time to move on or lets start another civil war.
• 6. Stop trying to mix 85 IQ violent black students with 100 IQ white students. What happens? Pontiac, Michigan happens. We been there and done that. Try vouchers instead. Send all children to private schools like Barrack and Michelle Obama do. Birds of a feather flock together. If bussing had never occurred in Pontiac the city today would be much more diverse and the country much better off. Racism in Michigan is a fact of life for every parent there. They hid it using euphemism like “good school district” and such but when you get them drunk its more like “I would never send my kid to a nigger school. I would die before that happens.” The lessons of Pontiac and Flint are etched into the psyche of every parent in Michigan. Michael Moore fooled the rest of the nation in blaming the destruction of Flint on the demise of GM. Those of us who lived there know it was bussing that brought down Flint. Make no mistake Mr. Holder. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Something you would be wise to realize.

And that is what a lot of white America thinks of black America. Not all. Most of white America has never experienced schools where gang violence runs ramped. Most attended nice suburban schools. They could care less about race and were happy Obama was elected never really understanding who or what Obama really stands for. Most have nice jobs and don’t want to be labeled racist. But for those of us who know the facts I guess we will end up on your enemies list to be dealt with. We know half of all blacks have an IQ of 85 or lower. We know low IQ and no father lead directly to jail. We know no social program will solve this uneven outcome. And we know of your perverse form of reverse slavery disguised as equality and socialism will fail and lead to civil war. Is that honest enough Mr. Holder?
