Mickey James, president of the Myrtle
Beach branch of the NAACP, and other community organizers said
 |
| Three gunned down, and the NAACP is lashing out at city officials. |
Myrtle Beach officials are working to
improve safety during Memorial Day weekend. Crime, murder and other
violence are a trademark of Bikefest, that features a majority of
Black bikers on the summer kick-off holiday. Three men were shot down in the streets at Bikefest
earlier this year.
The NAACP, et al, held a press
conference in Myrtle Beach Thursday.
"You had a chance to bring us to
the table and you wouldn't even do it," James complained.
He also said that whites are just as
bad, but not labeled for their criminal actions.
What Mr. James does not get, is that he
is seen as the problem, as much as anyone.
But he is more interested in blaming people
not like him, than taking any responsibility.
The NAACP has been around for decades,
but it never seems to contribute to any solutions. It just acts as a political weapon for the Democrat Party.
The truth is, if we REALLY want to decrease crime and violence in Myrtle Beach, or anywhere, we are going to have
to stand up to the hate-filled, race-based rhetoric of
anti-productive impediments like Mickey James.
Everybody knows that, but we're too
nice, or too frightened to say it.
