Charlotte racists want cash
If I demanded that black people gave me money so I could create a "white power" museum, would that be racist? How about if I demanded all Jews paid me to create a Nazi musical and memorandum show? Would that be racist?
Then why is it when black people in Charlotte demand $2 million to expand an "Afro-American Cultural Center" is it not racist? I'll say it -- IT IS. David Taylor is the director of the struggling center that is having great difficulty bringing in visitors. So, instead of allowing the FREE market to work, he is asking the city to save him and his racist cultural center. Of course, the money would come from increased tax rates. Why are blacks always given a free pass to be as racist as they want? I have nothing against someone building a "Afro-" anything. I do have a problem when they want ME to pay for it because it simply would NOT survive the free market -- in other words, not enough people WANT the damn thing. If you build a building based on racism, they will NOT come -- taxpayers will just be asked to continue paying for it FOREVER. If it cannot survive the free market, it doesn't need to exist.

Double standard buddy, double standard. I find a lot of organizations and programs to be racist or discriminatory. Unfortunately, no one will do anything about it because they don't want to be labeled as a racist.

But WHY? Is Jesse-I'm-The-King-Of-Blacks-Jackson really THAT powerful?

It is not that Jesse Jackson is THAT powerful it is that many are just tired of hearing him complain on TV. Also in some way I think people fear an LA or Chicago riot.

An awful lot of people must fear him and his ilk, or more people would simply call actions like this one racist.
