BLM and Racism

The first thing I want to say is that of course black lives matter. All of God’s children matter to Him, and they need to matter to the rest of us because we are all called upon to love one another, as He loves us.

The second thing I want to say is that the Marxist organization Black Lives Matter is not a loving organization dedicated to bringing us together. Rather, its stated goal is basically to divide us as a people and then destroy us. To remake the country in THEIR image instead of the image of our founding fathers, who wanted “One nation, under God, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for All.”

In 1952, I was born in LosAngeles, California. As I grew up in the 1950’s and 1960’s I never really thought about the fact that it was only seven years removed from the end of World War II . . . but it was.

We moved from L.A. to Anaheim in 1955, and I grew up in Anaheim, graduating from high school in 1970.

As you can imagine, I saw a lot of racial unrest, especially in the 1960s. As a teenager, I was well aware of the civil rights movement and Dr. King’s effort to create racial equality. I loved Dr. King and what he stood for, and he accomplished so much. I stood for him and with him even as a young teenager.

I was disgusted and shocked this year (2020) when I saw the rise of BLM. One of the main things being said by people in that organization is that “nothing has changed in 400 years.” I know, and YOU should know, that this statement is a flat out lie. In case BLM never knew, slavery ended during our Civil War with the Emancipation Proclamation. That was in the 1860s. Furthermore, slavery wasn’t invented by the United States. It’s been around a long time. Ask the Jews, for instance, that were freed by Moses, and who were enslaved by the Egyptians. Unfortunately, slavery still exists today in many forms. But blacks are not slaves in this country anymore thanks to Abraham Lincoln, and the power of the United States Constitution.

Dr. King’s movement changed a lot as well. I remember in the 1960s that black people couldn’t even eat in the same restaurant, or piss in the same bathroom, or go to the same schools, etc., etc., etc. Totally wrong, and totally disgusting . . . and totally different now, as it should be. That ALL changed. Nothing’s changed? Baloney.

BLM would also have you think that because of that history, white people are all racist. The fact is that BLM is the racist organization. They point out that black lives matter, and get mad when you say, “All lives matter.” They get mad because they don’t think that all lives matter. That wouldn’t serve their purpose. I can tell you this because I am an American who has never been racist, and I am not black. And I never will be racist, sorry BLM.

I know that there are still some people who are racist, but the country is not “inherently racist” as we’re being told by BLM and their supporters. On the contrary, most Americans are loving and supporting of each other . . . no matter the race, color, or creed.

So OG’s truth today is that black lives matter a lot to me. All lives matter. Life is precious, and all of us are precious to Him.

The organization BLM doesn’t matter. OG’s truth. Black lives have always mattered to me, and I don’t need BLM to tell me they matter for their divisive purposes. It’s insulting to Americans who have always supported equality and always will, like me and the vast majority.
