.......Giving Up The RIGHT for The WRONG....a.k.a. The Vapors
......therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin........
"AMERIKKKA2020"...........At the publishing of this blog the America that we {thought we knew} is, literally, crashing and burning out of control in one way or another, while at the same time preparing for the presidential election in less than 30 days.
The West coast is burning up, hurricanes are making havoc of the South and East coast, the Gulf coast is under water, the infrastructure is crumbling, the country is plagued with disease, suicide and fatal crimes of passion are at an all time high, inner-cities are out of control and under siege by the criminals and the Feds, while the two geriatric presidential candidates are having a "joaning sesssion" labeled as a debate, on national TV.
Many people are blaming the current POTUS for the demise of America as well as for the Covid-19 virus that has this country and others in petrified mode - for obvious reasons. But, blaming one individual for a white supremist mind -set that has existed as long as amerikkka itself, is rather naïve, to say the lest.
There has always been two Americas, one privileged and one not. So for some of us its heart-wrenching to recognize and realize that those "golden days of yester year" are gone forever.

To be honest, no matter who occupies the white house after the presidential election this country will never be the same. Because the lid has been removed from Pandora's Box and the demons which use to operate covertly are now all out in the open, operating overtly, and running free.
You see there is/was a strategy being used by the current administration and certain media outlets to terrify American's, especially those living in the suburbs and in rural areas, into believing that major cities are cesspools were savages, mostly black beast with guns, are allowed to run amok.
Therefore, its open season on people of color......just for being black.....and there is not a law able to be written and passed or an army big enough to enforce... the change of heart and mind of wicked, satanic, people.
Undoubtedly, #2020, will go down in history as a year like no other. Today, many Americans all over the country are celebrating Columbus Day and his founding of America (1 of many lies told about this country) and have celebrated the auspicious Memorial Day, the Fourth of July, and Labor Day holidays giving thanks and praise for living in such a place like this while simultaneously witnessing the emergence and on-set, of AMERIKKKA......the new/old normal.
It appears that the more things change.....the more they stay the same.
In 1968, the National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders(Kerner Commission), an organizing formed by the POTUS, L.B. Johnson, after outbreaks of rioting in nearly all major cities, concluded and reported that there were two societies in America/amerikkka, separate and unequal.
WHAT!!!!
This is madness!!
So for those that don't or didn't know it, we found out in the 60's (some of us knew way, way before that) that the country was racially divided. SO WHY??? are so many people, white people especially and black and brown people, in-particularly, acting as if the murder and mayhem of people of color is some how the result of the current POTUS and his rhetoric?
We have always known.
Racism was built into the fabric of this country. It was built in the Constitution of The United States because #AfricansNamerikkka weren't even considered as human beings, we were thought of as more like a mule or a donkey.
So, don't blame the current climate on the POTUS, blame yourself.
Because we knew early on that trying to integrate into a country that didn't want integration was the wrong thing to do. Hundreds of years of slavery and Jim Crow laws should have proven to us that we weren't wanted in America. But, we tried anyway...gettin' in where we didn't fit in. And the more we tried the more they showed us they didn't want us around. Because as soon as we would move in......they would move out.
Politian's and preachers told us in the 60's that it was possible to fit in and be treated fairly in America so we assumed that laws could be legislated to #makePeopleLuvUs. But, it didn't take long to find out that that was a lie. So what we really ended up doing was something morally and spiritually conscience individuals should never do:
.......give up the right for the wrong.
Bare with me if you will:
I retired from the USPS as a City Mail Carrier. I had what was primarily a mounted route; which means I drove a mail truck and delivered mail to mail boxes curbside. To do this operation there are certain rules that MOST be adhered to are you will have a problem. You have two sorts of mail to delivery: (1) is letter mail (DPS) automatically sorted and placed in order - by address - for you and the other (2) is magazines and flat envelope mail sorted and placed in order by - address - by the Mail carrier(you, hopefully).
In front of each house you are to verify the letter mail and the flat mail match the address and make the delivery. This is called following the mail. The mail is set up by automation to know where it is going...you just have to follow the street addresses.
When you reach the end of the street, the standing rule is: TURN RIGHT...the next addresses will pick-up and continue around this corner. No problem.
Except, when the rule doesn't apply, like when the mail makes a U-turn and goes back down the same street on the other side, or when the mail "skips" the next block and goes to the next block and then turns right, or when the mail skips a block and goes to the next block and turns left.
Sound confusing......it is.
This may not sound like a big deal to most people but if you are delivering in an unfamiliar part of town or you are on an unfamiliar route, these little idiosyncrasies mentioned above could very well have you pulling your hair out while making your blood pressure rise as you are going around and around in circles, many times in the dark, looking for a way out of an area you have never been in before, nor should be in now in the dark, while the clock is ticking and your supervisor is fervently watching the clock waiting on your rerun.
The only thing you can say to your superiors in your defense is that I tried to follow the mail and kept TURNING RIGHT. Still, you got lost!!! You did what you had been instructed and trained to do. Still, you got lost!!! Even though you are lost and kaint find your way out of this maze or even back to where you started......you did what was right. As a new hire to the USPS letter carrying profession you never gave up the right for the wrong or in this case the "right for the left or the u-turn, or etc. etc. etc.
The point I am trying to make is that you never pick wrong over right....never. And I'm not talking about your right, nor my right, but the right that controls all of creation, the right that declares that justice must prevail in order to be right, the right that is balanced, not tilted, shaded or one sided.
It is believed that the road to hell is paved with people who had good intentions but never put them into practice.
People who meant to to do the right thing but didn't....for whatever reason. Many just made the decision to just follow the crowd.
Maybe, they didn't or couldn't do what "in their heart" was the right thing to do because the crowd they were following said not to and of course the crowd knew what was best because it was the religious crowd, or the political crowd, or the educated crowd with PH.D's, or the entertainment crowd, or the superstar athletic crowd, or the business crowd, the movers and shakers crowd, the people with individual wealth crowd, or last but not least, your kin-folks crowd.
Whatever crowd you chose or choose to follow, if it wasn't/isn't the crowd that was/is following righteousness just because "its right to do right" you are or did follow the wrong crowd.
Back in the 90's there was an artist/rapper named Biz Markie. He coined a song entitled, The Vapors. It was about people "who" for whatever reason follow the crowd just because it looks, feels, or taste good, only to find that it really wasn't #good4U, because once the Vapors are gone you realize you have/had nothing real to hold on to. #UCaughtTheVapors. Like having religion and not knowing God.
A this present moment Amerikkka is on the verge of destruction. From without and from within. Sides or being formed and lines are being drawn in the sand. The only hope for AfricansNamerikkka, and for all people who realize that this is about the haves and the have nots, and not color, is complete separation from our common enemies and unity with our consciences brother and sisters in the struggle.
Prudent people should realize and understand that this current madness is not going to stop until the people with the power to define realize that we have united and decided to stop being puppets. The only way we can prove that we are serious about our freedom is to start to corral our collective dollars in one central location.
Listen family, in 2019 the #AfricanNamerikkkan buying power was $1.4 TRILLION DOLLARS. This amount is higher than the gross domestic product of Mexico. Is is expected to increase to almost $2.0 TRILLION DOLLARS by 2024.
We spent(consumed) that much. We are the largest racial consumer market. But what do we own? We own little, if any land, we produce little, if any, of the countries resources, and possess little, if any(negligible) amounts of the nations wealth.
Many people, black and white don't believe that. But its true. We have been trained/fooled to believe that the many #AfricanNamerikkkan athletes, actors, and artist of all kinds have enormous amounts of wealth at their disposal. But they don't. You know who has control of all that money......SUPER MANAGERS(the massa of today) has all the control and money.... not the superstars themselves.
Many white liberals, and others, who are not racist 'per sa' don't feel our collective economic pain because they feel that #AfricanNamerikkkanSuperstars have enough money to help their own people. But, politics and "good ole boy shenanigans' keep those with individual wealth, those few who would like to do major things in their #AfricanNamerikkkan communities, are kept in hand-cuffs and in constant fear of losing what they have if they become #TooBlack. So, the black community and the majority of #AfricansNamerikkka continue to suffer because of economic genocide fueled by systemic racism.
Well, you know what, I'm done. And I mean that literally. Time is running out for me. I have more yesterdays than I have tomorrows. And I'm cool with that. Because God has been/is good too me. So, life , for me now, is way more about the quality of life as opposed to the quantity of days.
Look, none of us came here to stay and my body reminds me of that fact more and more everyday. If Covid-19, high blood pressure, diabetes, congestive heart failure, cancer, bullets with no name, cars with no sane drivers, or some other malady doesn't take me out of here, surly, something else will. There is no parking down here.
But before I go, if its Gods will, I would like #TheCreatorOfTheWorld to allow the POTUS to turn up the heat in #amerikkkasFurnance seven(7) times hotter than its ever been, seven(7) times hotter than normal. And if needs be then allow the mightiest men in Satan's army of imps to throw me into the furnace just like King Nebuchadnezzar did to the three #HebrewBoyzNAfrica, a long, long, time ago.
You see, just like them, I refuse to #BowDown, I refuse to #GoAlongToGetAlong, I refuse to #PickTheLessorOfTwoEvils, and more than anything else, I refuse to #GiveUpTheRightForTheWrong.
But keep in mind that the mighty men who throw the three #HebrewBoyzNAfrica into the fiery furnace "all died' while the #HebrewBoyz were delivered by #TheOne who looked liked #TheSonOfGod.
