My Cripness is Better Than Yours.

Afternoon, Fam…

So, I haven’t said anything controversial, to some, in a while, so let’s break that trend, shall we?

Bill Cosby was sent up for 3-10 in his sex abuse case, essentially sentencing him to life behind bars.  Immediately some black people pulled the race card.  Hmmm, I don’t know how the jury broke down race-wise, but I do know there were more men than women and he was found guilty on all counts.  It definitely wasn’t a guy looking out for the other guy thing like some guys are.  Me thinks they’d’ve nailed his ass regardless of race.

J, where you goin’ with this?

If you watch the news, all races have their own agenda whether it be Black, Hispanic, Asian, what have you.  I understand we all come from different walks of life, but really, why can’t we all just be for the human race, because, let’s face it, if one race goes down, we ALL go down.  Think about that for a sec.

Now, I follow the various crip feeds on FB and Twitter as well blogs, and I read about Blind rights this and Deaf rights that, Pain Managements rights, accessibility issues for the various cripness, which all have their merit, mind you, but, again, we’re getting into factions.  In my eyes, a crip is a crip is a crip as long as you’re trying to better yourself and not live off the gov’t tip and play the “pity me” card…yeah, I haven’t given the definition of a crip, to us, in a long time.

Anyway, why this separation?  Shouldn’t we be fighting crips’, as a whole, rights?

Food for thought.

Be good to each other.
