Doing The Best She Can Do & Be

Apparently This Is The Best Way She Can Use Her Success

Proving Further Her Unappreciative Lack Of Understanding For Her Position and US Institutions

Her Grand Finale:
A grand jury declined indicting Representative McKinney for having provoked a confrontation in which she admitted hitting a police officer who had tried to stop her for a standard security search before entering a House office building.

Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney is seen posing as the new woman while descending the steps of a US government building built to preserve justice. McKinney, a Congresswoman from Georgia, smiles, a victim of the United States and its continued attacks and derision. Dressed to the nines, McKinney displays her recent makeover with a smile for the cameras.

Five days after McKinney struck a Capitol Police officer, Capitol Hill police officials asked a federal prosecutor to approve an arrest warrant for Representative Cynthia McKinney. Capitol Police had no immediate comment as to whether they intend to file felony or misdemeanor assault charges.

McKinney's lawyer, James W. Myart Jr., said, "Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney, like thousands of average Americans across this country, is, too, a victim of the excessive use of force by law enforcement officials because of how she looks and the color of her skin... Ms. McKinney is just a victim of being in Congress while black. Congresswoman McKinney will be exonerated."

The event in question took place during the Congresswoman's entrance into the Capitol. Members of Congress are expected to wear identifying lapel pins when entering and working in Congress. They are usually recognized by their appearance and their lapel pins. Members of Congress are routinely waved into Congressional buildings without undergoing security checks. McKinney recently underwent a makeover and also was not wearing her pin. The Capitol police officer apparently did not recognize McKinney.

Several Capitol Police officials said that the officer guarding the entrance asked McKinney three times to stop. When she refused to stop, the officer placed a hand on her. McKinney then hit the officer.

Asked shortly after the incident by WSB-TV of Atlanta if she intended to apologize, McKinney declined comment. She issued a statement later that day stating she regretted the confrontation. Her news conference scheduled for the following morning was canceled. She stated on her Internet site, "I know that Capitol Hill Police are securing our safety, and I appreciate the work that they do. I have demonstrated my support for them in the past and I continue to support them now."

The Capitol Police Department has the responsibility of protecting the 535 members of Congress and the vast Capitol complex. In the atmosphere of politics and pompous privilege it operates in the post-9/11 environment. The safety of members of Congress was seen as particularly endangered when, in 1998, a gunman forced his way past guards and killed two officers outside the office of a House member.

McKinney was certainly aware of her physical makeover... or did she forget that her appearance had recently changed? She may have forgotten to wear her lapel pin... however, understanding her responsibility in the Capitol post-9/11, she surely should have remembered to wear her pin. When the Capitol guard called out to her three (3) times, could she have intentionally not responded?

McKinney is either forgetful or was looking to provoke an incident. Perhaps she is simply forgetful. She apparently forgot that she had undergone a makeover. She apparently forgot about her responsibilities to serve her constituents in the US Congress with dignity. She forgot her lapel pin. She forgot her responsibility to respond to Capitol police when in the building they are charged to guard. Being so forgetful, it is a wonder that McKinney is able to serve her constituents effectively.

McKinney may not be forgetful. But then McKinney was demonstrating a lack of creativity. Looking for trouble and whining, McKinney was simply following the plan established decades ago -- when it was needed and appropriate. Starting in the early 1960s, oppressed people executed sit-ins. These included such events as those at the Woolworth lunch counter, riding in front seats of buses, boycotting bus lines, and forcing enrollment into schools where they were not wanted.

Those pioneers endeavored to prove that they were worthy and should be accepted. ...And prove themselves worthy they did. ...And the US is better for their assertiveness and struggles.

Martin Luther King would see, and many of his followers understand, that they accomplished much. Today King's followers are accepted and successful across the nation wherever they strive to accomplish.

McKinney is one of those successful people. Is she so forgetful that she forgot how successful she is? When might she stop complaining about her treatment by the people of the United States? Certainly no Capitol guard would accost McKinney simply to make trouble for the Capitol Police Department, Congress, or the people of the United States.

Speaking of the people of the United States, who believed that McKinney would be worthy of representing them in the US Congress? Is McKinney capable of focusing on the good people, the liberty, freedoms, rights and privileges she and all citizens of the US are provided through little effort of their own?

How much longer will it be profitable to hate and attack white people? And after all white people have been driven out, where will the victors go and what will they do to survive as comfortably?
