He's exactly right but not in the way he thinks.

The ones who need to be made uncomfortable are those that blame everyone and everything else on their issues rather than looking in the mirror and taking responsibility for their situations and doing something to fix it.

When more black fathers decide to be real men and be present for their children, raise them to work hard, respect authority, take a vested interest in their education, and advocate for them 90% of their issues will not so magically disappear.

Unfortunately in today's bizarro society it's racist to state those obvious facts and expect them be able to live up to those standards.

It is ridiculous to blame black family failure and unemployment on racism.

We have tens of millions of people who snuck into this country because they had the drive and work ethic to do something to improve their station in life.

"Muh racism" is such a bullshite excuse in 2017. Take responsibility for yourself, or be poor. Decent people are sick and tired of the same old sad song.
