Jerry Davich: Why the uproar was different after a baby’s murder – Post-Tribune.

/////////////////////

Hello. Don’t recognize me?

That’s OK; I understand.

My name was Antonio West.

I was the 13-month old child who was shot in the face at point blank range by two black teens, who were attempting to rob my mother, who was also shot.

I think my murder and my mommy’s wounding made the news for maybe a day, and then disappeared.

A Grand Jury of my mommy’s peers from Brunswick, Georgia, ruled the black teens who murdered me will not face the death penalty.  Too bad it was me who got the death sentence from my killers instead, because Mommy didn’t have the money they demanded.

See, my family made the mistake of being white in a 73% non-white neighborhood, but my murder wasn’t ruled a ‘hate crime’.

Where are the white residents of Ferguson, Missouri – people brandishing signs reading “Justice for Officer Jay Nixon”?  There may be a need to bring whites in from other locations, as the blacks have done.  Whatever it takes, but white people had better begin to show force and fight back against the ongoing destruction of all that has been achieved in the racial arena in America.  Gains made over many decades by many Americans, both black and white. Conservative blacks cannot fight this fight for you. You must fight it.

Yes, I am black, descendant of slaves, reared under Jim Crow segregation, and all that minutiae, but I am also extremely tired of the “somebody else is the cause of my problems” mentality engrossing too many black people.  A mentality that elitists Barack Obama and Eric Holder have preyed upon throughout their miserable careers.

Understand this, folks, if you glean…

Fellow Conservative,

After six years of bad policies and worse leadership, liberals are finally realizing just what a calamity the Obama administration has been.

Even the reliably liberal New York Times said “even the slightest injection of the Obama brand into this election seems perilous for Democrats.”

But this bad political environment for liberals doesn’t change the fact that the radical Obama agenda remains in place — and that liberals want to double down.

Government continues to expand. Obamacare remains in force. The economy is still handicapped by red tape and high taxes and overzealous bureaucrats.

It’s midnight in America. And it’s our turn to shine the light.

After years of disastrous liberal leadership, Americans are desperate for an alternative. Conservatives have the advantage now. You and I need to press that advantage.

That’s why The Heritage Foundation and Heritage Action for America are undertaking an urgent joint initiative to…
