The Irrelevance of the Chronic Community Agitator

If Obama Treated Race As He Treats Islam | The American Spectator


By Jeffrey Lord – 2.17.15

What civil rights struggle? 

Well this will be interesting.
The White House has announced that come March 7th President Obama will travel to Selma, Alabama, to mark the 50th anniversary of “Bloody Sunday” — the famous civil rights march that ended with a savage attack by 100 Alabama state police under the control of Democratic Governor George Wallace. The marchers — some 600 African-Americans on their way to Montgomery to demand voting rights — had to cross the Alabama River over the Edmund Pettus Bridge. The state police major in charge was sought out to discuss the situation by Southern Christian Leadership Conference leader Hosea Williams. The response: “There is no word to be had… you have two minutes to turn around and go back to your church.” The marchers kept marching and within minutes they were attacked by horseback riding cops and slammed with tear gas. As noted at the African-American registry: “The incident was seen on national television while 16 marchers ended up in the hospital and another 50 received emergency treatment.”
Question? What’s missing here in all of this memorializing of that long-ago moment in history that in fact is standard operating procedure for the Obama White House when dealing with Islamic extremism? Oops! Sorry…make that just plain “extremism.”
In other words? If in fact “Islam” has nothing to do with the attacks on those Egyptian Coptic Christians in Libya or the Charlie Hebdo attack in France or the murders in Denmark or 9/11 etc., etc. — why does race have anything to do with what happened at the Edmund Pettus Bridge fifty years ago next month? Or, for that matter, with slavery, segregation or any other racial topic in American history past or present?
