I know, it's easy to discount this because "Glenn Beck" said it. On the other hand, it's kind of hard to discount it when its black people sending the message.

The video is quite telling and I think it reflects what a lot of the black people in my area have thought for some time.

Just because you tell a lie over & over & over again, and the media tow's the party-line all over the nation/world and back up your lies, the reality of your BANK ACCOUNT speaks much more loudly than any of your lies & deceit & tainted/slanted media coverage... "the economy is recovering at an astronomical pace and the country is MUCH better off than when I came into office!" Ummm... no Mr. President. It so is NOT the case, and all of us can see right through your b/s & the media's.
Did jobs get created? No doubt. Did GOOD jobs get created? Absolutely not. Going from making $50,000/yr, then having to work 3-jobs to make that same amount after being laid-off, isn't my idea of economic stability & improvement, and anyone that thinks that what B.O. did is a good thing (ie: create low-paying jobs to replace the high-paying one's that went away), is a moron.
Rant finished. As you were.

Maybe the country is waking up?
I fear not.
If the Democrats were to run another black man (or woman) for President, no matter who the person is and how unqualified & worthless they are, that person would win. Hands down.
Which tells you what?
That he's in office for one reason and one reason only: the color of his skin.
I'm not being racist, I'm being a realist and calling it what it is.
If the Democrats ran a black person for every single Senate seat they had, and a black person for every single Congressional district, they'd OWN the Senate & Congress. It would be a sea of black on Capitol Hill.
I'm curious why Dem's haven't done that yet, actually. Worked well in the last election with B.O. wiggling his way into office and winning because of the black-vote, you'd think they'd be working on it already (ie: filling up the Senate & Congress with black-folk).
Again, just calling it like I see it. Through VERY dark-colored glasses.

{....“Who are the real oppressors in our community?” Paul McKinley, who ran for elected office as a Republican to replace Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr., demanded in a video released Monday by Rebel Pundit. “When you hear the words ‘black-on-black crime,’ the first thing you think of is a black man robbing you, a black man breaking in your house. And that is a black-on-black crime. But let’s take it one step further. There’s a black-on-black crime down in city hall, there’s a black-on-black crime down in all the state capitals in America, where black folks are voting against our interests!”...}
http://www.glennbeck.com/2014/10/29/is-the-black-community-turning-on-obama/
{...McKinley--who has been convicted of 6 felony counts and served nearly 20 years behind bars for armed robberies, aggravated battery, and burglaries--refers to himself as an "ex-offender" who wants to get other ex-offenders to work.
McKinley was also arrested 11 times from 2003 to 2007, mostly for protesting. Records show he also owes $14,147 in federal taxes.....}

He certainly should know about black on black crime.

U.S. third-quarter wage gains largest since 2008
5 hrs ago
U.S. labor costs rose more than expected in the third quarter as wages recorded their largest gain since 2008, a sign that a long-awaited pick-up in wage growth was underway.
The Employment Cost Index, the broadest measure of labor costs, increased 0.7 percent after advancing by the same margin in the second quarter, the Labor Department said on Friday.
Economists polled by Reuters had forecast the employment cost index increasing 0.5 percent in the July-September period.
Wages and salaries, which account for 70 percent of employment costs, rose 0.8 percent in the third quarter, the largest increase since the second quarter of 2008. They had gained 0.6 percent in the second quarter.
Federal Reserve officials view the ECI as one of the better measures of labor market slack.
Policymakers at the U.S. central bank on Wednesday gave a fairly upbeat assessment of the labor market, dropping their characterization of labor market slack as "significant" and replacing it with "gradually diminishing."
In the 12 months through September, labor costs increased 2.2 percent, the largest increase since the second quarter of 2011. They had increased 2.0 percent in the 12 months through June.
Wages and salaries were up 2.1 percent in the 12 months through September, the biggest rise since the first quarter of 2009, after increasing 1.8 percent in the 12 months through June.
Various surveys have been hinting at an acceleration in wage growth.
Benefit costs increased 0.6 percent in the July-September period. That followed a 1.0 percent gain in the second quarter.
They increased 2.4 percent in the 12 months through September after rising 2.5 percent in the 12 months through June.

There was a stubborn bit of data buried in the August jobs report released on Friday: The unemployment rate for blacks (11.4 percent)

rofl...So Krugman is not to be believed by you guys, and you offer us up a partisan piece by beck? seriously? rofl
Of course
Now that is funny! BECK????

Equally laughable...
Hmmmm, did you read what brice wrote?
I think what teko is alluding to is, those black men and their opinions could not be genuine, especially because someone like Glenn Beck drew some attention to it. I knew that would be the case.
You said it...
That black man did 20 years for 6 felony cinviction.
I'd say he might not be the guy to weigh ion on black on black crime.......unless he's giving tips on how to engage in it
Teeheehee

Speak it Mike! Im glad someone on here knows whats up and what isnt. Geeze Us People!!!! But you just want to believe the crap so everyone else is wrong, right?
Very calculated. If this man were praising the President, you'd listen up. But a black man who is disenfranchised with the whole situation is obviously part of another team.
"But you just want to believe the crap so everyone else is wrong, right?"
Looks like you're looking in the mirror for a change. It suits you.

Mike said it all.
Why did you not do YOUR research and not already know that? Because you hear what you want to hear.....Obviously. Glenn Beck should have been a clue. To most it is.
Im done here. Selective Ignorance is intolerable. Bye Bye Talk to yourselves all ya want now. I have had enuff.

Theres that mirror again. What about the other guys in the video? Not black enough for you? Is it because they aren't in Missouri?
Paul McKinnley certainly knows more about black on black crime than any white folk on this forum and he wasn't the only black person in the video, but of course, it's easy blow a little smoke and discredit the whole video based on one person and the fact that Glenn Beck presented it. That's totally incredible.
And I'm the one who is supposed to be misguided... that's laughable.
Selective Ignorance = Word of the Year:
"selective ignorance (noun): the practice of selectively ignoring distracting, irrelevant, or otherwise unnecessary information received, such as e-mails, news reports, etc.."
It's a prized trait in the business world as people who practice it can filter out the drivel they don't need on a day to day basis; works very well for parents, too, since we'd probably all have heart attacks if we knew everything our kids did.

I love you right wingers.
Here is a 6 time felon for violent crimes (armed robberies, aggravated battery, and burglaries) who did 20 years in prison and you guys characterize him as "disenfranchised" and extoll his opinion of black on black crime.
Your hypocrisy knows no bounds.
If he was a just another black man getting food stamps you wouldn't be nearly so forgiving.

Oh boy...
Oh the liberal ignorance is sticking its nose out again. So, because this man has been incarcerated, he's not allowed to have an opinion? If he were a liberal and were bashing 'whitey', you guys would love him.
More troubling, there were other black men in the video and apparently because there was one felon in the group, you've discredited the whole lot!
And mike, if he were "just another black man getting food stamps", you'd say he needs more help and you'd do everything you could to make sure he would vote for the liberal agenda.
Talk about hypocrisy. You two take the cake.

The slave of the democrats are only useful when it is to help anything they want. Other then that they are dismissed.
Nothing to see here, folks, the liberals have said it all ...
Tee hee hee. I knew there would be a strawman and a lot of duck and cover. More and more predictable as the days go by.
