Blacks told to ‘pull up the ass dragging pants’

The majority of the Caribbean countries, that had slave populations, have and are still wallowing around in the financial abyss. One has to ask WHY. Well one suggestion that is hard to dispute is that all of these nations have a large population of people descended from African Slaves. These descended slave populations, during the majority of their history have been looked after by Caucasian people and they have developed a GIMME/Support Me attitude. Work ethics and the ability to support oneself is not in-bred, just the opposite is true. The majority of these slave populations now blame everything on their slave history, it’s all whiteys fault. They may have a point, however it’s been 150 years, six(6) generations since the end of slavery and they still blaming the same devil. It’s about time these black descendants of Africa take an inward look at themselves, pull up the ass dragging pants and start putting the blame on themselves.

    I see your point re the issue of value and maybe appeal in aesthetic design and presentation. Blacks do not own much businesses here and maybe if they did, the skew would not tend so much towards white own or ethnic group businesses. Plus black businesses, for example some of the supermarkets that are own by blacks (exception being the Emerald City and A1) but using ricks and popular as examples, are not so appealing and their location maybe a turn off to certain elite customers. Maybe you are right. It might be a case value and I would add..location

    Of all the garbage Miller spouts daily on this site, surely this has to be one of the top contenders. Hear the Great Miller:

    “White Barbadian, although intellectually backward because on interbreeding and insular in their mindset, are socially more Bajan than blacks”

    Ricks Supermarket has been long gone, and as far as ownership of Emerald City and A1,that is debatable,as we all know that Sir David Seale has a big stake in those businesses.

    It is the same with Indians living in Canada….I once was denied a liquor license due to the fact that I was an Indian…….and numerous times I had positions turned down due to my race……
    Instead of crying about this injustice I fought back!!!!! I was trained as an intelligence officer in the US Army and I put this training to good work!!!!!!
    The person, a unionized government worker, after two weeks of having his picture and employment location plastered in every news outlet and office place in the province….after he faced numerous assaults both physical verbal….after his family was plasticized and refused service and, was fired…..then I made sure that he would not be employed in that province ever again……after his house and car mysteriously burnt….after his children were beaten up by native youths….after he was denied protection after position by those in power….well to say the least he got the message and not only left the province but also packed up and went back to the garbage heap that he immigrated from.
    If someone has been denied employment, discriminated by those in power and/or faced racial discrimination due to their race or colour then they should fight back and do as much damage as physically possible to those who are using their position in life to degrade them.
    Believe you me it works!!!!!!!!
    In the past twenty five years no one has had the balls to discriminate against either myself or my family due to our race…….they know toooooooo well what they will face if they are stupid enough to try!!!!

    Some people might try and say that I went too far but this I just laugh at…..I made such an example of this person in power that any other person who had the slighted inclining to repeat his actions would have second thoughts at doing so. If these people want to discriminate against someone because of their race, creed, color or religion then they should get whatever retaliation that can be mustered out!!!!!!

    How do you know that they support there own. What are the black business success stories on the island that you can shout and ‘holla’ about.
    ………………………………………………….
    I always like to tell the story of the two shops on opposite sides of the road at Eastmond Corner , thats where Station Hill meets the Bank Hall and Bridge Roads. These two shops were owned by a Mr Worrell and over the years many Barbadians rented these two shop, but had to abandoned their entrepreneurial efforts due to a lack of support from fellow Barbadians.
    Not to be discouraged, an Asian set up business in one of these shops, and was forced , shortly afterwards, to install wrought iron burglar bars, and other security measures , as business was doing so well, he had these fears of being robbed. And this story is repeated in Roebuck Street, Tudor Street, Baxters Road and all the other parts of Bridgetown where , previously there was an abundance of successful black businesses.
    If you pass by what was ACME Engineering in Roebuck Street, you will see that the building has been given a facelift, and the Star and Crescent has been concreted into the facia.

    Well then, show how the statement is garbage, instead of the ad hominem.

    Here are three pieces of evidence to support my position:
    They were in Barbados before you blacks.
    They are not pretentious and certainly don’t imitate Americans like the blacks with their put-on false accents while making ‘mincemeat’ of the Queen’s English.
    They don’t wear other people’s false hair as a sure sign of self-hatred.

    Now where are yours, “123”, to prove otherwise?

    Ad hominems? Show you how the statement is garbage?????
    If you can’t see what is wrong with your comment,
    “…White Barbadian, although intellectually backward because on interbreeding and insular in their mindset, are socially more Bajan than blacks…”

    then perhaps you are a bigger fool than your words suggest.

    I entered the US Army on the 3 of May 1965 and served til Sept 1985.
    Of this time frame I spent twelve years in the Intelligence branch working as a data tec. haven’ been trained for such by the Army……How much time did you spend in the services??????
    And when you insulted my intelligence with the statement re:”shouldn’t you be running cigarettes over the border or something”…well it goes without saying the level of brain waves you enjoy. And by the way…..isn’t that the job of WHITEY??????? The last that I heard they were the ones running the illegal smoke racket……….In the city I live in over seventy people have been arrested selling and/or transporting illegal smokes….and guess what……not one of them were Indians!!!!!

    My grandfather was given the mm at the somme, my father was a chindit, I spent 34 years in the fire service, we are a family of blue collar straight shooters, who know that the measure of a man doesn’t come from race or color but how he reacts in the good times and the bad. I believe how you reacted over your liquor license just about says it all. Your hollow victory says more about you than you probably realize, Revelling in the sins of the father being visited on his children and wife is alien to most men .Maybe working in an office environment instead of on the front lines has given you this skewed vision of what is right or wrong.

    With four tours in Nam!!!!!! Being with the ground forces in Granada!!!! another two tours in in the middle east…..sitting in an office??????? I think not!!!!. And my victory was not hallow…. I was able to get my liqueur license…. something that an Indian had never gotten before. Since then there has been eleven other natives open licensed restaurants ….something that would not have transpired if I had not stood up and fought!!!!!!
    My children have all gone to collage and have excellent jobs but more important they had the opportunity to do so.
    I now have six grand children in collage and nine more in school……not one dropout to this date….yes a very shallow victory!!!!!
    I am now long since retired with a good pension haven worked till I was seventy four and am still married to the same woman….something that is unheard of on the reserve a very shallow victory!!!!!!
    The VICTORIES that I have been able to obtain were ones that can be passed on to all those who come after me let they be native indians or anyone who is surpresed by the white neo-christian race and their better than thou attitudes.
    I have spent my life fighting for equality and will fight on until I pass over to my ansesters.

    I commend you on your fight to stop stereotyping of all people, and to that end you have convinced me to give up at least one of my preconceived whitey notions .Never again will I think that all old Indians are wise.

    What evidence?
    I give evidence in my papers and reports not on plain-as-day Millerisms…

    Nonetheless would the Miller like evidence that:

    he writes the most nonsense on the blog while pretending to be the Mr. Uber Sophisticated?
    he is a regular Party Hack ?
    he may (or may not!) have read widely, but not is well read at all?
    he is not nearly as intelligent or cultured sophisticated as he thinks and pretends he is?
    he is just another bitter old man with too much time on his hands who recently discovered the world of blogging?

    PS: Your latest gaffe is evidence of all the above :

    “…White Barbadian, although intellectually backward because on interbreeding and insular in their mindset, are socially more Bajan than blacks…”

    institutionalized racism and how it is hidden and define within all societies

    Persistent negative stereotypes fuel institutional racism, and influence interpersonal relations. Racial stereotyping contributes to patterns of racial residential segregation, and shape views about crime, crime policy, and welfare policy, especially if the contextual information is stereotype-consistent. A great percentage of white Americans rate Black Americans and Latino Americans as less intelligent, preferring to live from welfare benefits rather than work, and “more difficult to get along with socially”.
    Institutional racism is distinguished from racial bigotry by the existence of institutional systemic policies, practices and economic and political structures which place non-white racial and ethnic groups at a disadvantage in relation to an institution’s white members. One example is public school budgets (including local levies and bonds) and the quality of teachers, which in the U.S. are often correlated with property values: rich neighborhoods are more likely to be more ‘white’ and to have better teachers and more money for education, even in public schools. Restrictive housing contracts and bank lending policies have also been listed as forms of institutional racism. Other examples are racial profiling by security guards and police, use of stereotyped racial caricatures (e.g. “Indian” sport mascots), the under- and mis-representation of certain racial groups in the mass media, and race-based barriers to gainful employment and professional advancement. Additionally, differential access to goods, services, and opportunities of society can be included within the term institutional racism, such as unpaved streets and roads, inherited socio-economic disadvantage, “standardized” tests (each ethnic group prepared for it differently; many are poorly prepared), et cetera.
    some might argue that there is a difference in the way things are done in the island but one must not be distracted by geographical location since these policies are already in place and would never change at some point and time as the wealth of the minority in get carribbean gets larger the challenges for blacks and minorities to get financial power would become harder as these policies to undermine would be acted upon…,
