Re: Eric Holder -- "I Can See a Race War"
Atty. Gen. Eric Holder last Wednesday "told an audience at the Justice Department that despite the nation’s progress on racial relations, 'we have always been and continue to be, in too many ways, essentially a nation of cowards,'” reports CNSNews.
"Though race-related issues continue to occupy a significant portion of our political discussion," said Holder, "and though there remain many unresolved racial issues in this nation, we, average Americans, simply do not talk enough with each other about race."
A commenter at Free Republic (no. 49 down the page) is talking -- and sees storm clouds:
I’d like to ask the new Atty. General how he thinks it feels to wake up every morning and know that, by virtue of my white skin, I will be blamed for evils that happened decades before I was born?
I have never oppressed any Black but I am vilified and punished simply for being white. I can see a race war ahead of us. Either that or a Civil War between Libs and Conservatives. I suspect the race war is more likely.
A race war more likely? It's not going to happen, unless we follow the recipe for "How to Have a Race War."
However, a peaceful but determined uprising against the chains of an impoverishing and imposed secularism from Washingtoncentric elites might be another story.
Something tells me freedom has a broad appeal.
