But I know there's a big, menacing red gash across the national electoral map where Obama is the snowball and hell is the fury of those who can't stomach a Black man in the White House. I pray that reason and the power of good will keep those furies from hell at bay.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-57113078446695664.post-56814907715791887172009-01-28T12:59:00.000-06:002009-01-28T12:59:00.000-06:00I haven't heard a word of these incidents in the m...I haven't heard a word of these incidents in the mainstream media (Which is one more reason to seek alternative news sources). These hate crimes demand a swift and decisive response from law enforcement agencies. But if the public is unaware of what's going on, then what will motivate the agencies to take decisive action?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-57113078446695664.post-67828722341684559492009-01-28T03:43:00.000-06:002009-01-28T03:43:00.000-06:00Great post!

If anything, folks over here are incredibly excited about Obama.<BR/><BR/>However, I remember reading US news online just after the election and seeing stories about violent incidents aimed at minorities...most of what I've read made it seem like isolated incidents, but I suspect there's quite a bit the media doesn't report. In defense of the media, I think to report every incident could actually spur on people who didn't have the balls to do anything before to engage in racist activity, because they see that it gets their message to a larger audience.American Black Chick in Europehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17612489402572134424noreply@blogger.com
