I normally try not to be overly political except to advocate for the equality and civil rights of all. We are all Gods children and therefore are due love and respect. In that light, I heard 2 quotes that I find so outrageous that I had to share - I fear some are trying to drag us backwards to 1814. I hope you are as outraged and offended as I am: This week, Ryan told ultra-conservative radio host Bill Bennett that poverty in America is caused by a “culture problem” of “inner city” men too lazy to work. Ryan’s comments are plainly a dog-whistle to ugly racial politics. And it gets worse: to back up his claim, Ryan cited Charles Murray, a prominent conservative academic who has argued that African-Americans are genetically less intelligent than whites and that poor people are “born lazy.”
