I challenge a wide swath of Black America to find one person in their lives who is not pissed.

Many people I know are surrounded by a chorus of people in their lives who are perpetually pissed at everyone and everything.

• Your parents got discriminated against during the 50's and 60's. Those of you who have experienced generational compression, this might be your grandparents. They remind you during your childhood of all the discrimination and speak disparagingly of white people.
• Your preacher is also over 50 and subsequently pissed about discrimination he experienced pre-civil rights movement. He will spew his own hatred of the United States in general and white people in particular. Reverend Jeremiah Wright and Fredrick Hanes are good examples of this.
• Your coworkers also influenced by their parents and preacher are also pissed at their lack of achievement and look at blacks who succeeded in any other way except sports or entertainment with disdain.

What does this add up to? Fear Uncertainty and Doubt about everything.

As a result you go Bowling for Racism. Everything that is said by anyone who is not black is racist. You automatically roll each phrase down the racism lane until it hits a pin. When a pin is hit whether accidentally or not, its time to protest. Examples of this are everywhere. White people: say something bad about Barack Obama, even if its true and see if your not a racist within 24 hours.

Everyone is a racist. You walk around waiting for the star-chamber (the smoke filled room full of white people plotting against the blacks) to destroy the black race.

Meanwhile everyone who is black and happy or successful has sold out. They are singled out as the problem in the black community instead of those who steal, kill and glorify said behavior.

Barack's associates seem to be either radicals (pissed off at something) or angry, pissed off people. Does he have anyone in his circle who has counted a single blessing? Even Michelle Obama is pissed, calling the very country that has allowed her to live comfortably a mean place to live.

So I ask you, black people, are you perpetually pissed? If so, why? and who told you to be pissed?
