Truth is simple. God's truths are simple. God's truths about the discipline of sons include:
Being God's enemy, Satan is a liar who leaves those who listen to him up a creek without a paddle. And now comes the modern morality play of Adrian Peterson. Rich whites and those blacks playing their game are aflutter tsk-tsking about black male violence in the NFL, and they imply that the man who uses a switch in the discipline of a child is of the same ilk as the man who knocks out his girlfriend with a punch to her head.
White people don't act his way and black people who care what white people think about them...
will shame any black man who uses "violence" against children.
Of course, the real problem isn't black men using violence against children. It's black women using violence against children. Black mothers.
Good black mothers.
Rutgers Professor Britteny Cooper, an African American, writes in Salon:
I can never recount one time, ever seeing a black child yell at his or her mother in public. Never. It is almost unfathomable ....as Charles Barkley notes, if we lock up Adrian Peterson, we could lock up every other black parent in the South for the same behavior.
The rest of Professor Cooper's piece sets one's teeth on edge. But it's worth reading simply to see the disdain blacks have for white children who are undisciplined, and even more for the white children's pathetic white parents.
