THE TYGRRRR EXPRESS

As I have said on many occasions, I started blogging because I wanted to combat the scourge of ideological bigotry. I hope that others continue to share their tales with me. Before going into my latest encounter with ideological bigotry, attached is the link to another decent fellow that is being accosted simply for being a republican and existing.

As far back as I can recall, there has been tension between the republican party and the liberal black leadership of America. Yes, the republican party made some terrible mistakes. So what? Who hasn’t? Do two wrongs make a right? Only if the goal is vengeance instead of justice. Despite many decent black Americans truly wanting a better life for all Americans, the liberal black leadership in America today preaches division and racial animosity. Agitation is encouraged, and comity is considered weakness. Why offer an olive branch when one can act aggressive and be rewarded for it? With the help of guilty white liberals, republicans in this country, especially conservative ones, have been demonized not for anything they do, but for being.

I have worked in environments where politics is discussed. Not office politics, but national politics. Often, the discussions involved racial issues. I have always kept quiet because as a republican, I am just not in the mood to be called a Nazi, Fascist, racist, sexist pig. I remember one easygoing black man in his early 30s who, like me, always stayed silent. I asked him why he never got involved in the discussions. In his rich, deep, voice, he replied, “Eric, here’s my philosophy. The differences between black and white are nothing compared to the differences between men and women. If you’re a man, no matter what color you are, there’s a chance I can understand you.”

Unfortunately, some people feel the need to not only take part in the conversation, but to dominate it. Often, these people are not interested in facts, but in winning debate points by crushing whoever stands in their way, right or wrong. Make no mistake about it. When an office bully wants to target you, no human resources department will stand in their way. Like Ted Kennedy going after Robert Bork and Clarence Thomas, facts get lost in a sea of poison and innuendo.

The way accusations work are simple. If a member of a protected group makes overt comments, those comments are rationalized away as the product of a rough childhood, a tough background, or decades of injustice. If a member of an unprotected group makes a comment about the weather, and the member of a protected group finds comments about the weather to be against their race or religion, they have grounds for a lawsuit.

Overstating the case? Ask any man who has ever been railroaded how stacked the deck is when political correctness takes over.

Some would say that there is the legal system. No way. If I could give conservative republicans advice, it would be to roll over and take it, or move to a red state. There is no hope. Labor laws are set up to help those that have been oppressed in society, which means that those former oppressors, aka wealthy, white republicans, deserve no mercy and no benefit of the doubt. Labor lawyers by definition are activists, which means that their ability to be neutral arbiters can be compromised when the issues are political.

I know one labor lawyer who “is not saying I am a racist, but I have racist tendencies.” How does he know this? Did he ever ask me my opinions on anything? Of course not. He does not need to do so. I am a conservative republican, and therefore I cannot understand the subtle nuances behind racism. Of course, labor lawyers like these shill for the ACLU, Legal Aid, and other organizations that spend their time coddling real criminals while productive citizens burn. I actually know one labor lawyer who was at the center of a corrupt election involving dogs voting. These are the people enforcing ethics in America.
The honorable thing for a labor lawyer to do when they realize that they have an inherent bias that prevents them from even asking the tough questions necessary to conduct a fair investigation would be to recuse themselves. Yet honor is not known among liberals or lawyers. Combine the two, and it is no surprise that real actual complaints do not get dealt with because people are afraid to speak up. These same labor lawyers actually preach that the system works. No. It does not.

One reason is that the system is not set up to do what is right. It is set up to do what is legal. It is illegal to say bad things about protected groups. Race and religion are protected. Ideology is not protected. That means somebody could spend every day in an office explaining why they hate republicans, and there is no recourse. A person could light a republican pamphlet on fire, and that would be free expression. Try burning a cross and see what happens. No, I am not advocating cross burning. I am saying that those who would condemn cross burning should not be so quick to want to burn anybody else’s beliefs. I began blogging because a liberal woman expressed to me that she wished that George W. Bush and his supporters were flammable. That is called lynching.

So what does one do when the legal dice are shaved, and the labor laws are simply an appendage of the democratic party? Well, taking care of office militants is going to be tough, but the lawyers…there is recourse.

Lawyers can be disbarred. They can face reprimands. They can face disciplinary hearings. They do not have absolute power. Also, they do not have the right to retaliate against a legitimate claim. Like all claims, they can sue for defamation if they are slandered. However, it is not difficult to prove bias. Labor lawyers love to explain how everybody else is biased, but you don’t become a left wing ideologue without developing a certain contempt for conservatives that borders on hubris.

In the same way college students need to strike back against corrupt liberal professors, conservatives should not accept accusations of racism, even if the person leveling the accusation has a law degree.

America in the 21st century is not Selma, Alabama. Most people just want to live their lives. I was not even born when Nixon developed the southern strategy that has caused so many blacks to detest republicans. Even so, most black Americans are reasonable people. It is the guilty white liberals that cannot be salvaged. They are a lost cause, and all the labor lawyers in the world will not be able to protect them when conservatives start fighting back. You can only bully people for so long.

The legal dice are shaved. It is time to end this rigged game. If that means exposing every person who promises to uphold the law, and instead perverts it, then this needs to be done. Lawyers that let their own biases infect their ability to do their jobs must recuse themselves. Otherwise, concerned citizens can help the disciplinary committee do it for them. I can only hope that when they come for the guilty white liberals, nobody will be willing to speak up for them.
