combjelly is full of .it. Dr. Alveda King on Baltimore Riots: MLK Jr. Would ‘Be Heartbroken’ Martin Luther King's Niece on the Baltimore riots: KING: My Uncle MLK JR Would 'Be Heartbroken'... AFP by Alex Swoyer27 Apr 2015Washington, DC 781 In an exclusive interview with Breitbart News, Dr. Alveda King, niece of the great civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., said if he saw these Baltimore riots, “he’d be heartbroken, I am.” High school students stormed the street in protests and riots Monday afternoon, throwing rocks at police officers. The protests come on the same day as Freddie Gray’s funeral. He died earlier this month while in police custody. “As I watched the protest, I’m reminded of several years ago… I was part of the first children’s march in Birmingham, Alabama,” King told Breitbart News. She added that those protests were peaceful and supervised. “These children are not supervised—they are angry,” she said. King said that she is very concerned that the Mayor of Baltimore has appeared to give these people an opportunity to destroy. King went on to say when she sees the children on television running into a CVS and stealing—and police not doing anything because they have been told not to—that it’s not giving these children any compassion at all. “That’s discouraging,” King stated. She recalled what her father said to a group of people when their family home was burned in Birmingham, Alabama. She said he stood on a car and said, “Don’t riot, don’t destroy, go home”—“Go home and pray.” “These children need help. They need guidance,” King added.

"Riot is the language of the unheard..." I would substitute the word discouraged for unheard, although discouraged people are often people who also have not been listened to. According to Adler, when we feel encouraged, we feel capable and appreciated and will generally act in a connected and cooperative way. When we are discouraged, we may act in unhealthy ways by competing, withdrawing, or giving up. It is in finding ways of expressing and accepting encouragement, respect, and social interest that help us feel fulfilled and optimistic. Adlerian theory and practice have proven especially productive as applied to the growth and development of children. Adlerians believe that "a misbehaving child is a discouraged child" and that helping children to feel valued, significant, and competent is often the most effective strategy in coping with difficult child behaviors. alfredadler.edu When I take a step backward I also see another example of a once great empire in decline. History is repeating itself.

Riot is the language of the communist manipulators trying to take over a country. Soros is beaming.

Another Cover-Up for the Religion of Peace ....................................................................................... Townhall.com ^ \| April 29, 2015 \| Michael Reagan Turkey's President Recep Erdogan, one of President Obama's new best friends along with Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, was extremely unhappy last week as truth-tellers worldwide observed the 100th anniversary of the beginning of the Armenian genocide. By the time the killing concluded an estimated 1.5 million Armenians lay dead in Turkey, killed by soldiers serving the Ottoman Empire. One could accurately describe President Erdogan as a genocide denier. He claims the death toll is wildly exaggerated. What's more, according to him, there was nothing organized about the deaths. It was a time of civil war and unrest that just happened to be fatal to Armenians. Maybe they hadn't had their shots. Erdogan does everything but blame outside agitators for the deaths. My father knew different. In 1981 Ronald Reagan was the first U.S. president to call the Armenian deaths what they were: Genocide. On the other hand our current president not only doesn't refer to genocide as genocide, he manages to break yet another promise while dodging the truth. Aysor.am reports "As a presidential candidate in 2008, Barack Obama promised, if elected, to refer to the Turkish mass killing of Armenians that began in 1915 as genocide." Yet the word is nowhere to be found in his statement regarding the atrocity. What many miss in the discussion of the slaughter - and possibly the reason Obama was reluctant to use an accurate description - is the Armenians were Christian and the Ottoman Turks were and are Muslims. Since Muslims are supposed to be the world's victims now, what with the scourge of "Islamophobia" running rampant, it is inconvenient in the extreme for the PC Police when others point out the indiscriminate slaughter of Christians at the hands of a Muslim government. Turkey's response to other government's acknowledgment of the facts does nothing to help its case. In fact, Erdogan's response only makes him look guilty. When the Austrian Parliament signed a declaration condemning the genocide Turkey declared the act would put "permanent stains on Turkish-Austrian friendship." Presumably Austria's parliament vote is a much greater offense than repeated invasions of Austria by the Ottomans. Pope Francis also decried the mass murder of the Armenian Christians and for his trouble Turkey raged that his statement was "null and void" and recalled its ambassador. If this keeps up Turkey may have to construct special housing for recalled ambassadors since France, Germany, Canada and Russia join 16 other nations in condemning the genocide. A better solution would be for Turkey to admit the genocide and then ask for forgiveness and make amends with the remaining Armenians.
