Protests and riots are misdirected

According to the Federal Bureau of Prisons, 93.3 percent of prisoners in America are male and 6.7 percent are female.

That’s 14 male inmates for every female inmate.

According to today’s thinking, that means that males are being targeted by the police over females.

We males need “leaders” who will continually tell us that women are holding us back and urge us to riot because of police inequality in reference to gender. Our president and his henchmen, Eric Holder, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, etc., are all males and they should lead our rallies to get more women arrested and imprisoned.

We could come up with catchy little chants like, “What do we want? Dead women!” We could ravage businesses in the name of civil rights to get free TVs, free booze, free food, or whatever we want. After our vociferous riots are over, our grocery stores are destroyed and we have to drive for an hour to get food, but we showed them.

We could riot all night, sleep all day, pick up chicks at the rallies; even shoot cops for fun because everyone knows that cops are targeting us males. This would just give them what Jeremiah Wright said was, “The chickens have come home to roost.”

The government has come up with a scheme called, “Affirmative Action,” that allows females more access to high paying jobs and executive positions. This is based purely on their gender and it is clearly a biased plan to assist females while excluding males.

It’s OK if a woman shoots another woman or if a woman shoots a man. Everyone knows he probably deserved it anyway, but be ready for the wrath of hell if a male policeman shoots a woman. The Constitution states that all humans are created equal. We want our equal rights!

We, the men of America, are tired of being discriminated against! We want equality with the females!

The little scenario above is stupid and asinine, but this, among the races in America, is exactly what is happening today. The police are targeting crime, not race.

Statistically, women are not as prone to committing crime as males. Consequently, more males are in prison.

Statistically, blacks are more prone to committing crime than whites. Consequently, there are more black inmates.

This would have been a wonderful period in American history for our half-black president to address the issues that make blacks more prone to commit crimes and accept poverty, but alas he has chosen to attack the police in an effort to garner black votes in the upcoming elections.
