So we can gather that Brooksie doesn't care much for the city of Detroit. He's an Oakland county guy. Let me explain that Oakland county is a more affluent suburb of Detroit. It's where all the White people went when Blacks from the south moved here to Michigan for jobs. You know, because of fear and loathing of "them".
Brooksie wasn't done bashing Detroit, he further states in the article,
"I made a prediction a long time ago, and it’s come to pass. I said,
‘What we’re going to do is turn Detroit into an Indian reservation, where we herd all the Indians into the city, build a fence around it, and then throw in the blankets and corn."
I want to point out that smallpox infected blankets and dispossession and repressive policies of Whites caused the death of up too 80% of the Indigenous population. Don't you see the comedy in his statement? How glib and frank he can be at the same time? Do you know, during the late 1630s, smallpox killed over half of the Wyandot, who controlled most of the early North American fur trade in what became Canada. They were reduced to fewer than 10,000 people.( Robertson, Ronald G (2001). Rotting face : smallpox and the American Indian. Caldwell, Idaho: Caxton Press. pp. 107–108. ISBN 0-87004-419-2.)
I want to point out also that Brooksie is a republican. It's not just that, it is that he got caught being an HONEST republican. Remember these are the people who invented the whole "Obama is a Kenyan" and "Obama the magic Negro" on conservative radio stations. For Brooksie to make such an ugly statement about us is just following suit of the members of that party.Don't believe me?
Rick Santorum while running for nomination under the republican ticket in 2012 said, "I don't want to make Black people's lives easier by giving them other people's money"
Ron Paul argues that the landmark federal legislation that dismantled Jim Crow segregation in the 1960s was a moral evil and a violation of white people’s liberty. Ron Paul’s claim that the rights of black Americans are secondary to the “freedom” of whites to discriminate, is an almost perfect mirror for the logic of apartheid. Ron Paul’s white supremacist ethic is more than a dismissal of one of the crowning legislative achievements of the 20th century: it is the endorsement of a principle that conveniently allows white people to hate and discriminate in the public sphere at will--and without consequence--against people of color. This “freedom” is the living and bleeding heart of white racism. (Daily Kos)
The echo chamber that is Fox News, right-wing talk radio, the conservative blogosphere, and Republican elected officials daily stoke the politics of white racial resentment, bigotry and fear. Ultimately, the Republican candidates would not use racism as a weapon if it were not rewarded by their voters, and encouraged by the party’s leadership. An army travels on its stomach; it needs foot soldiers and shock troops to advance its aims.
From the ugly, race-based conspiracy fantasies of Birtherism to the astroturf politics of the Tea Party to a news network whose guests routinely disparage Barack Obama with such labels as “ghetto crackhead” to the bloviating racist utterances by opinion leaders such as Rush Limbaugh, to the common bigotry on display at right-wing Web sites that use monkey, ape, gorilla, pimp, and watermelon imagery to depict the United States’ first black president and his family, it is clear that racism “works” for the Republican Party. To ignore the attraction of rank-and-file white conservatives to such ugliness is to overlook the driving force behind the Republican nominees’ behavior. (Daily Kos)
Jason Richwine, who received his doctorate in public policy from Harvard in 2009, wrote in his dissertation “IQ and Immigration Policy” that immigrants in the U.S. have lower IQs than native white Americans, and that difference “is likely to persist over several generations.”
“The average IQ of immigrants in the United States is substantially lower than that of the white native population, and the difference is likely to persist over several generations.”“The consequences are a lack of socioeconomic assimilation among low-IQ immigrant groups, more underclass behavior, less social trust, and an increase in the proportion of unskilled workers in the American labor market,” he writes. “Selecting high-IQ immigrants would ameliorate these problems in the U.S., while at the same time benefiting smart potential immigrants who lack educational access in their home countries.”
No one knows whether Hispanics will ever reach IQ parity with whites, but the prediction that new Hispanic immigrants will have low-IQ children and grandchildren is difficult to argue against.Now if they can make statements like that about Latinos and Black why are we surprised that Brooksie made those comments about Indians?
See Brooksie cares only for the White base that breeds fear and loathing of Original people. He caters to a base that believes those of us who are blessed to be brown and more are somehow undermining the intentions of the founding fathers. You know, those Indian killing Slave owning White guys on the money? For him to make a ugly statement that Detroit is doomed and wanting to "herd all the Indians" into the city like the government did to my people on the trail of tears, or what they did to the Lakota at Wounded Knee, or wha they did to the Pottawatomie on The Trail Of Death and then say it was nothing more than a "bombastic statement" is an outright lie or he is completely ignorant of history. Brooksie is a smart dude, you can't get to the position he is in by being a dumb ass, I know like I know that he is a liar.
Some want him to apologize, not me. I want him and the rest of the members of that bigoted racist group of things calling themselves "Tea partiers" and "Republicans" and "Conservatives" exposed as the vile devils and cancer to society and progress for what they are. His apology if it ever comes will mean nothing, it will be false and fake and disingenuous at best. He attempted one earlier and it was mumbled and soft. He will apologize only because he got caught being honest and everyone should know by now that an honest republican is nothing more than an exposed devil.
