Hillary and the Liberal “Basket Wars”
by Tom Balek, Contributing Author: For the past several weeks, every time I drive down Tyvola Road in Charlotte I suffer a temporary case of road rage. I’m not angry at other drivers. What makes me flipping furious is the big church reader board sign that says, “STOP KILLING, DISRESPECTING BLACK PEOPLE”.
My visceral reaction is always the same: “Are you talking to ME?”
I assure you, I have never killed black people. And I have never disrespected black people. At least not any more than I have disrespected white people or yellow people or red people who don’t deserve my respect.
So why do I have a sign in my face, demanding that I stop killing black people? How does anybody who doesn’t know me assume I am a racist? Or a murderer? Or both? And what about the other tens of thousands of people who see that sign every day? How many of them kill black people?
I am so sick of being called a racist that sometimes I think I should become one just so I wouldn’t be so damn mad about being falsely accused of it all the time. That sign doesn’t apply to the 99.9999% of the people driving by who don’t kill black people. So what’s the point of sticking it our faces? You don’t say, “Thank you for not killing black people.” You just accuse us all of doing it.
And now, just to top it off, the Democrat candidate for president of my country calls me a “racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic DEPLORABLE.”
Well here’s the thing. I know a lot more about you, Hillary, than you know about me. You must feel threatened, because every time a liberal feels threatened he or she falls back on false accusations, name-calling and race-baiting. Your Chicken Little “everybody is racist” game has Martin Luther King turning over in his grave. Thank God the American people, and especially our African-American brothers and sisters, are finally catching on to your evil, self-serving, manipulative treachery.
And let’s be clear. This is not a black-on-white attack. My black friends accept me as an American brother just as I do them. In fact, almost every black guy I meet is as politically conservative as I am. No, this is the work of political hack liberals, like Dr. Chris Ayers, pastor of Wedgewood Church, who only see people in categories – white, black, gay, straight, rich, poor, and then pits them against each other. Hillary calls these categories “baskets”. And she lumps everyone who doesn’t vote for her into a big basket called “Deplorables” and labels us with every vile characterization she can think of.
Despite the accusations, all of us who drive on Tyvola Road, and all of us who won’t vote for Hillary, are saddened by any untimely deaths of black people. And white people. And gay people and innocent Muslim people, and soldier people and truck driving people and Russian people and all people. We are normal, compassionate human beings. When are the liberals going to knock off the “basket wars” and let us be a big, happy basket of Americans?
