Nugent: "The Black Problem" Could Be Solved If Blacks Put "Heart And Soul Into Being Honest" And "Law-Abiding"



Rockstar, Ted Nugent, infuriated the liberal media as well as many in the black community by suggesting that black people would do better if put their heart and soul into being honest, law abiding citizens.  This is something that I personally agree with; however, it seems as a black man, you cannot agree with such a statement without being labeled sell out.  For me, Nugent's statement holds very true.  But then, to say this, does not fit the popular narrative that black people commit crimes because they were victimized by the white man.  But does this adequately explain black on black crime?  Does this adequately explain that more black people were killed at the hands of black people, than all of the police in the entire country?   Many pundits within the black community have made racism the central issue that plagues the black community.  For some reason, many black people would rather blame white people than to admit that many times they create their own problems.  This is not to say the racism doesn't exist. Because it does. But racism is not the central issue.  In reality, the black community has a far more worse problem than racism.   (Nugent hinted at it in his opening statement).  That is their unwillingness to take responsibility for their actions.  As long as they can blame white people for their actions, they feel that they have the right to be irresponsible.  This irresponsibility is reflected in their everyday way of life.  From failure to comply with the orders of peace officers, to failure to pay their bills.   Recently, in the news, a black woman had 15 children out of wedlock; and then blamed the American system because she felt that she had too many children.   She quipped, "someone needs to pay for all of these kids." She felt that she was not responsible for her own actions.  To the average black citizen, there is no greater problem than racism.  Racism in the black community, has been said to be the cause of all of the maladies that affect black people.  To say the most, racism is a big problem, but it only accounts for a small percentage of what ills the black community.   Far more blacks are killed by blacks than by white cops.  And this is to the credit of white police, given the high crime rate within black communities.   Nugent was merely speaking his mind from a commonsense understanding of how personal accountability contributes to a person success. However, because Nugent was white, he was thought to be not eligible to speak to this black issue. but, shouldn't truth is truth, no matter who is speaking it?  I'm willing to bet that the majority of blacks who read this post will post negative comments because they have been conditioned by the liberal media to think only as victims.  However, if black people would consider their own actions, I believe that many of their issues with white people would disappear.

How about you?  Do you believe that black people's central problem is racism in America?

Dr. W. B. Clark and the 1909 Cancer-Public Health Debate: Parasites as a Cause?

In the early 20th century, as medical science continued to evolve, a variety of theories emerged about the origins and causes of cancer. One of the more controversial voices in this conversation was Dr. W. B. Clark , a physician who, in 1909 , boldly declared that parasites were the primary cause of cancer . His views sparked both intrigue and skepticism within the scientific community, highlighting the tensions between emerging medical theories and established norms of the time. Who Was Dr. W. B. Clark? Dr. W. B. Clark was a practicing physician in Indiana, active during a period when cancer research was still in its infancy. Although not a household name today, he contributed to the growing body of medical speculation and debate surrounding the nature of cancer. At the time, cancer was poorly understood, and treatments were rudimentary at best. Researchers explored a wide range of causes, from environmental factors to heredity — and in Clark's case, infectious organisms . The Par...

When Pastors Smoke Weed and preach the Word: A Wake-Up Call to the Church

By Dr. Vincent Rhodes | Coffee with Jesus Talk I never thought I’d see the day. A man—calling himself a pastor —took pages from the Holy Bible, ripped them out, rolled them up, and used them to light a joint. This isn’t a parody. It’s not satire. It actually happened. And if it doesn’t grieve your spirit or stir your soul, then maybe it’s time to check your spiritual pulse. This isn't just a moment of madness. It's a sign of the times . The Desecration of the Sacred For generations, the Bible has been treated with reverence. It has been the foundation of faith, the anchor of truth, and the living Word of God. But in today’s upside-down world, even the sacred isn’t safe from desecration. A Bible isn't just a book. It’s not some disposable relic of an ancient religion. It’s the living breath of God —spoken, written, and preserved for generations to know Him. So when someone—especially a pastor—uses those pages for a high, it’s not just rebellion. It’s blasphemy .
