One of the “factors” in the Cambridge PO-LICE department’s arrest of Professor Gates was supposedly “two black males wearing backpacks”.
Those “two black males wearing backpacks” seem to have vanished from the Cambridge PO-LICE department’s rhetoric. And it looks like the “TELL AMERICA” press is no longer telling America about the “two black males wearing backpacks”.
What happened to the “two black males wearing backpacks”? Were they “beamed up by Scotty? Are they still on the face of this earth?
Why did the “concept” of “two black males wearing backpacks” all of a sudden “leave the lips” of both the “TELL AMERICA” press and the Cambridge PO-LICE department?
CNN took a poll which they said showed WHITES believed the Cambridge PO-LICE “did nothing wrong”.
Whites, in America, have not believed that America’s PO-LICE departments did anything wrong since the Bull O’Connor days of cattle-prodding civil rights marchers.
But, at this time, it certainly looks like SOMEBODY did something wrong. It looks like the “two black males wearing backpacks” either never existed or vanished and the Cambridge PO-LICE department has not put out an “all points bulletin” on them.
Does the Cambridge PO-LICE department know something that it is not TELLING AMERICA? Why did the lady who made the call to the police department say she did not mention RACE? The lady caller and the Cambridge PO-LICE DEPARTMENT were not on the same page until the lady mentioned to the press that she never mentioned RACE. After the lady caller told the world she did not mention RACE – the Cambridge PO-LICE department stopped talking about RACE. And that leaves the “two black males wearing backpacks” in limbo.
And the CNN poll, which revealed a RACIAL DIVIDE in America, seemed to ignore the “two black males wearing backpacks”. Why? We believe we know the answer to that question.
There is a song with lyrics that go something like this: “Lord I ain’t got no – special riding here”. Those lyrics could be a reminder that ancestors of most black Americans did not come to this country voluntarily and the transportation from that “historic” site in Ghana, was not “fit for human beings”. America’s politicians fixed that by re-defining the human status of slaves. Basically politics designed “fractional” human beings. But gradually the slaves reached 4/5 ths of a human being and then on to full human being. No longer was it illegal to teach blacks how to read.
So, maybe Black America should thank CNN for the reminder that there is still a black-white divide in this country. The reminder might also titillate the “opportunity urge” of a political party whose “performance foundation” is more than a bit shaky. Inciting others to a join a political party via rhetoric can work.
