What Happens When The Circus Leaves?

In another few days the camera trucks and news crews will pack up and leave Sanford, Florida. Sharpton, Jackson, and whatever members of the New Black Panther Party who haven’t been arrested, will also crawl back to the Erebusic lagoons from whence they were spawned. The circus will be officially over. Newspapers will stop printing the stories, the entertainment will be over except for a blurb every once in a while, that references the tragic events.

And what will have been accomplished? The only thing left not done at this point, is for the knuckleheads to set fire to their own neighborhoods, and there’s still time left for that. Everyone will have cashed in on the unfortunate circumstances but the Martin family and Mr. Zimmerman, but the affected families.

The neighborhoods, will have the appearance of a war zones, even if they aren’t set afire. The looting of stores has already begun – after all, no honest criminal is willing to bypass the opportunity to loot when it presents itself. Windows will be broken, trash and debris will be ankle deep, stores and small businesses will have suffered loss – some to the point of being forced out of business. What few jobs that there were for those with no marketable employment skills, will be gone and for many, what little they had will be loss.

And what will have been accomplished? What justice will have been served? After the hate, threats, and hurtful rhetoric has left town, what will be left? Will any of this bring Martin back? Will Zimmerman be better off because he was forced to defend himself? Will flowers and poetry suddenly spring forth? The answer to all of the questions is, of course, no.

But as it is after every incident like this the people who remain behind are always worse off than before the camera trucks and the race whores showed up. They will feel used, but will not know who to blame, ergo the blame will be assigned to the ever present boogie man – police, whites, conservatives, ad nauseum.

Businesses will no longer operate in certain parts of the city, increasing the difficulty for those without transportation, to get things we take for granted. Property and casualty insurance will spike. Damaged properties, that were either uninsured or underinsured will now hasten their decline into depressed ghettoes, and at some point a mural of Martin will appear on a building.

There will be continued talk of retribution, and hatred will flow from pulpits that should be preaching redemption through Jesus Christ. Schools will become more divided and there will be fewer services. Fewer opportunities, fewer banks, fewer opportunities for credit, and what services and stores that remain will be greatly limited. Grocery stores will be reduced to the dollar store and discount variety.

When the circus leaves town what will remain? What remains will be hurt, pain, disillusionment, anger, confusion, disaffection, misplaced feelings of betrayal, hopelessness, misplaced feelings of distrust, increased prices, fewer jobs, fewer stores to shop at, fewer entertainment opportunities that we take for granted, more trash, more crime, the life of one person snuffed out, the life the another forever changed, the lives of two families forever altered, and the rhetoric of fools who will preach revolution and the “white man owes” you.

All of this and more will be left behind when the circus of race whores and pimps rolls out of town. But there will always be next year, when there will be an anniversary of the lost of Martin’s life – then again, maybe not. After all of the vile vitriol, threats, ugliness, grandstanding, pontificating, demands, and lawsuits – what will be left?

    I think what I have to say about this can be taken from sometime back when, Most people of today, I would say do not remember this and I world guess that many have never heard of the following person and seeing that it, like a lot of other things have been taken out of the history books and replaced with feel good lies. When, At the Twentieth Congress of the CPSU February 24-25 1956 Nikita Kruschev slammed his shoe on the table and made the following comment “We Shall Destroy You From Within” How many really thought that his words would come to be? But look at all that has and is taken place. “They, our own so called leaders doing their best to divide the races, culture and the like, bringing Nikita Kruschev’s own words to come true. I feel that all need to really once again study the real history of this nation, and more so the ugly/dark parts of it, for if we do not change it we will once again relive history, but in a much worse way. As for my own saying is that “The Best Way To Destroy A Nation Is From Within, And The Best Way To Destroy A Nation From Within Is Through Liberalism”. Just look back over time and see what it has done and where we are today. Just to watch those in Congress acting the way they do over this incident, being as awful as it was, when they have no idea of the truth for the full details and the like still have to be gone over and over again and then some. And Why are the Ne Black Panthers statements of having a bounty put out on someone not being denounced by the President and others and then having the New Black Panther Party being labeled as a terrorist origination, What would happen to you if you went and put out a bounty on another person?? what is really going on in our congress, Homeland security and the true news medias of today? It’s about time that we stop at looking at ones skin tone and judging on this. It is true that most do not but as with this that is going on in Fl. some folks once again stick the spoon in the pot to stir up what ever it is for their own self recognition, and the rest of the people again are the ones who loose and yet get a wedge that further divides all of us as individuals and a nation. Together We Stand, Is there any wonder that as a nation we are falling

      robert cody: its not liberalism that is destroying us from w/in…it is socialism/communism…i believe that more than at any time in history…the panthers are getting away w/ it because eric holder under obama has turned the justice department into a sewer of racism led by racialists…

    I feel bad for the people who live there, I lived and worked in Sanford over 15 years ago or so. And I still have friends whom I stay in touch with from time to time, I even have a one whom I consider a brother from another Mother. And to speak perfectly honest I always called my “Black” friends…Black. Not African Americans because some were from Jamaica, Haiti, Trinidad, etc. I’m mixed race (ABCPR: American born Chinese Puerto Rican) and had my doses of racism thrown against me; that’s part of life and I accept it. But Sharpton and Jackson, Shiela, and the rest of the vultures are bottom feeders. They feed on the misery of others for Fame and PROFIT, we need to show our children the fundamentals of becoming a productive citizen and give them the pearls of knowledge to enlighten them with the sense of decency towards our neighbors. I Love my Country and I hate to see that after all the sacrifice others have done on our behave to live free we’ve come to this…

      henry yip: the only words hyphenated in front of my name is “cigar-smoker”…i refuse to call anyone an african american…I’m a cigar-smoking American…and I don’t care who doesn’t like the cigars and/or the American…thks for sharing…

    I presume you heard Ms. Maxine shooting off her big mouth yesterday. It has also come out that the Attorney for Trayvon’s family call Sharpton to come when Sharpton was supposedly not going to come. Apparently he did not even know anything about the occurrence. When will the element within the black community be condemned by their own/ Despite the fact that those of us with white skins have attempted to assist with their plight, the Jacksons, Sharptons and others are only to willing to keep the fire so hot that no one can get close enough to put out the fire. Rest assurred that bad things will come out of this.

    But somehow this slipped under the radar. Reportedly, the friends of this slain are disappointed that Obama did not remark on this murder, too.

    The best assessment I’ve read about the aftermath of a riot. It leaves the area more depressed & poverty-stricken. I saw on the news this AM about the school kids in Miami who ransacked a Walgreens. Is this what the entitlement mentality gets us? Sad when parents can no longer control their kids & boundaries such as right & wrong don’t mean anything anymore. I once heard a sermon by the late, great D. James Kennedy in which he said (I’m paraphrasing here) that Johnson’s Great Society of the 60′s destroyed the American black family. I was stunned!! This wasn’t what I was taught in school. Did some further research by reading David Barton’s book ‘American History in Black & White’. Should be required reading for everyone-was the best eye-opener. This sad episode in Sanford, FL should be proof those poverty-pimps of Sharpton,Jackson & Obama care nothing about the people they profess to help. Jackson once said,”There is nothing more painful for me at this stage in my life than to walk down the street & hear footsteps & start thinking about robbery – & then look around & see somebody white & feel relieved”. Hmmmmmmm-wonder if he has the moxie to walk down the street in Sanford, FL now.

      chris: David Barton is a true patriot…I have condemned the great society repeatedly…and the parents can’t control themselves how can we expect them to control their children…

    For some reason Katrina comes to mind after reading this, but I dgiress. When you refer to the race whores do not neglect so call geniuses like Michael Baisden who continually slam Republicans and white people in general.

    • Mychal March 29, 2012 at 8:55 pm #

      ken: good point…

  9. Doug March 29, 2012 at 8:27 am #

    Well said Mychal. The race whores, including Commrade Barry Soweto, have set this up to destroy this country and destroy all inroads to racial peace in America.

    This whole incident has been twisted and misreported to the degree that even most of those who live in the area have no clear picture of what took place. You are right on again Mychal, those that exploit this kind of tragedy do not care or even concern themselves with the effect they leave behind or the impact on the lives of those directly involved and their families. It has been a most disgusting example of what can be expected from the vultures that feed on tragic incidents such as this one and purposely twist the facts to support their own sick agendas. As tensions rise and other incidents take place, the scenarios will only intensify when the professional race-baiters arrive.

    Creation of crisis to destroy Capitalist Society. This has happened in Sanford, FL. Socialism progress is achieved and in this case with conflict- racial unrest, which always is resolved in the direction of Greater Socialism/Communism. Sanford will look like a rat hole for some time because that is how Socialism works. Sanford got what they asked for through Obama, Sharpton and Jackson.

    You could not be more correct in your portrayal of the aftermath Mychal.
    We have had economic, environmental, financial, energy, and jobs crisis to deal with since Obama took office and each time he seized the opportunity and invented a solution which satisfied his agenda without regards for what was best for the country.
    The shooting of a black teenager in Florida gave the race mongers a similar opportunity and like Obama they will never let a chance to enforce and prolong their agenda to go to waste regardless of the damage and destruction to the fabric of our society.
