Don Imus at it again

[kellyindallas]

When did I ever post an "excuse"?:shrug: All I have done is provide historical context and asked you what your point is when you say that blacks IN GENERAL do not achieve.

It is my theory that things do not change overnight. We are experiencing a small part of a much larger timeline that was dominated for the most part by oppresive discrimination. How can a logical person expect 10 generations of oppresion to suddenly be equalized in 1 generation of equality? How can a person with an unbiased brain expect this?

Some of you seem to relish in these stats that make blacks look bad, without giving a thought of the larger picture.

But I'll just ask again - since you started it way back on page 1 or 2. What is the heart of your point when you say that blacks (in general) are less ambitious and commit more crimes?

Gotta run, smurph. I think I was pointing out (a) a fact (regarding crime stats); and (b) my personal experiences. I don't really see a need to rehash the same argument that's been rehashed innumerable times in the political forum. It's almost like you believe certain groups should be immune from being criticized for their behavior. Pretending a problem doesn't exist doesn't make it go away. Finally, what's your reasoning for why every other group that's come here, and who has been persecuted, still can succeed? Asians, specifically, are the most obvious answer. They come here, don't speak the language, don't have any money, and yet they still manage to rise to the top. Perhaps a difference in what each culture VALUES?

His posts speak for themselves. If I were a wagering gal, and I am, I'd wager he's a bit of a miserable creature. Oh well, we all have our problems. If it makes him feel tough and cool to put me on his signature, I say, have at it! Good night!

you have kosar pegged all wrong.

he is pretty much a free spirit, nothing much bothers him, he is easy going and kind to just about everyone he meets.

Was voted most intelligent and most likely to succeed all in the same year.

But if your going to bullshit around or your stupid or non-logical with your posts, prepare to meet your maker. kosar pulls no punchs and doesnt back down much.

PS - I am home from work now.

PSS - I liked the part where Jack made his
appearance questioning dicks. He has made a good living doing that.

PSSS - kosar , I would warn you that KID may put in a very unbecoming signature line about you:scared

I wouldn't bother. I've got better things to do.

Thanks, bro. I am very concerned about this potential development.

I think Eddie Murphy said it best playing
that little rascals role on SNL.

Asians are bidness men

are you the same person that was talking about
dicks a few hundred posts ago ?

OK sweetcakes.

Do you?

Let's be honest, hotcakes.

That's correct.

For someone who spells at about a third grade level, I think I'd watch what I say to others. Meet my maker? Are you freakin' serious, guy? Uh yeah. OK. My posts are nothing if not logical.

OK, now we are getting somewhere. So your point all along has been that the black culture VALUES crime and laziness. Got it.

As for comparing immigrant groups, please don't go there. There is only one group that was brought here involuntarily, bought, sold, divided, chained, renamed, barred from education, and legally kept separate from the rest of 'society' until 40 years ago.

...And no, that group is not the Asians. But hey, I'm proud as heck of those ambitious Asians and their values. Keep up the good work, Asians.

Nothing it is, then.

Smurph... not butting in the middle of this.... BUT, if they dont like it in America, why don't they leave the country?

Its not my, yours, or anybodiy's fault of this generation that African Americans endured slavery... separated but equal... etc.

I hate when people play that card. We actually have affirmative action now that discriminates agaist the MAJORITY. That means... if you are black and have a 3.0 gpa, and I am white and have a 3.5 gpa... you are going to school


George Carlin had it right... nowadays all you need is a f'kin pencil.


Where I come from... "WORK HARD AND YOU WILL PRESERVE"!

Listen sweetcakes

I will have you know that I hold a masters degree in Anthropology.

Just because I am too lazy to attempt to go back and correct my mispelled words should not open me up for attacks on my intelligence.

Can you see your shoes when you look down ?

just wondering

:0corn :0corn

I criticize individuals on their behavior, not groups.

 

[justin22g]
