The "why" doesn't change the "what". Liberals can't seem to grasp this, and seem to think names and accusations of racism are an acceptable substitute to actual discussion of the issues. See my orwell sig quote for some much needed insight.Equally moronic is the rights insistence that this culture didn't develop in response to generations of systemic racism, bigotry, and plain old exploitation ...
No doubt, and mostly after liberal policies. Early in the 1900's, blacks had higher employment rates and marriage rates than whites. Then we got the liberal "war on poverty".
Well, being that they didn't experience slavery, jim crow, segregation, etc, yes ....
But it proves the point-its NOT color thats the issue. Why would a racist discriminate against a black American, but NOT a black from Nigeria? Hint-because its not race thats the true issue.
I agree.
Well, first, I'm sure what passes off as research to you is rather laughable and wouldn't pass the smell test of the 5th grade civics class.
Ive taken all the liberal college courses in humanities, and the other soft sciences. I have advanced degrees and will soon have a doctorate. I think my opinion is what it is. And that as a result of our public school, even most hs grads have no idea about civics.
Secondly, you're clearly the special type of stupid that lacks the ability to approach any topic in an objective manner and simply uses such to indulge some semi-primitive tribal mentality. So there is likely little reason to give such claim of expertise much consideration without looking to it's actual merits.
I appear to have stuck a nerve. What tribal mentality? I was comparing American blacks to african blacks-what "tribal" mentality is that about? Im also the son of an immigrant and spend my free time providing medicine in 3rd world nations (and parts of the US that are close to 3rd world as well). Pray tell what benevolent merits you have. :roll:
Third, it's obvious you seem intent on ignoring how and why that culture developed, as opposed to simply using it as some hackneyed political tool, which just further underlines the above.
Jump on my vehicle and get your head slammed in it's door.Just another day in Jax? :shock: Cmons now.....this is Chicago and somebody always gets shot. But we don't have 600 kids jumping on cars and trying to bumrush a movie theater on Christmas Day. Sheesh.....just why are that many kids running around on that day down there in the first place?
I rarely agree with Haymarket, but he's right, the guilty should be prosecuted fully. The only important factor is that a group of people broke the law and endangered the public safety.Really? We need to do some "soul searching?" Whatever happened to personal responsibility where people are accountable for their actions and their actions alone?

Africans and East Indians do quite well here. They attain higher educational levels, maintain family structure, and dont fall for the victim mentality. And they surpass AA's in many respects according to research-and yet we are to believe (from the left) that these differences are not because of AA culture but racism. :doh
Further, we are to believe that despite the fact that asians are also a minority group who surpasss whites in educational attainment, income, family structure, loans, home ownership, etc-that blacks are somehow different.
The crap behavior you are attempting to justify has nothing to do with reality. People can be poor and yet maintain family, honest life, etc.
After doing the research, Im of the opinion that AA's problems are culturally related, and due to shortcomings both started and worsened by American liberals.
WChuckles is saying that all black people are responsible for the crime that occurred while that is blatantly false.
Why are you blatantly lying now? I have said no such thing and challenge you to provide a quote from me
Yes, the african american community has this pervasive attitude where criminality is largely excused and accepted
Hate to say it, but these incidents seem to always predominately concern African Americans. It's like all those retarded videos on WSHH.
That community needs to do some serious soul searching
I find that annoying - the constant suggestions that they should feel bound together by race and so when some of them do something wrong then they're all of a sudden one big community that should fix the problem together.
We don't have a white community.
When white guys storm schools and murder children no one ever thinks to open their mouth and say 'well the white community needs to come together and figure out how to fix this'
- That's a bull**** copout.
Some people started a riot . . . race notwithstanding.

People are people, it's not a cultural thing but rather a sub culture of any given area. All it takes is one bad neighborhood or two where people overlook sociopathic or criminal behaviors to create these types of individuals, the problem is accepting and excusing bad behavior, and the guilty here need to be punished.Yes, those guilty should be prosecuted, that doesn't change cultural and social norms influence how individuals behave and act
It's not that I am malicious, but if you **** one of them up well enough, the rest are more likely to get the message and leave your particular area alone.Mornin' LMR. :2wave: Well if they do it with mine.....I best get something out of the Deal. Some graffiti and left-over blunts laying all around or something. Leave me a Tag.....so I can at least re-round later. :werd
Have a nice day.Dude, if you think "the liberal war on poverty shaped african american culture more than things like jim crow, systemic racism, and slavery, I really don't even know what to tell you
This is subject to interpretation and opinion. Its a source of debate amongst the most noted experts. You present this as if its a black and white answer. :roll:
Hey, genius, if you spent half the time actually reading what you respond to, as opposed to regurgitating the tripe you uncritically suck up from the back waters of the internet, you would notice I have stressed the point it isn't about race since my second post in this thread. But I also noted that "african americans" are an ethnicity comprised of those descended from those who were directly involved in the slave trade, which has nothing to do with skin color and everything to do with a shared cultural and historical legacy. Hence, why blacks that don't have such an ethnic background are free from such cultural hang-ups ...
If you had watched the video I posted, you would have seen a prominent black scholar who mentions how african americans living in germany post ww2 did as well as native germans. Because they didn't have the victim mentality. Quite remarkable, really. If it was simply "cultural and historical legacy" why would it be seen in children born in the US and only recently relocated?
yeah, and you have a 14 inch dick and can bench press a buick. yet the inordinate amount of the content you generate here is the type of moronic bull**** idiots spout after gorging themselves on Right wing radio
Yep, I struck a nerve. You didnt answer the question-you questioned by credibility but when asked about your backround, its crickets. I dont think I need to ask again-you have already made my point.
Yes, on the level that i loath dip-****s
You're moronic indulging in some stupid liberal vs conservative agenda. It's obvious that you lack the ability to look at any issue outside the confines of that idiotic framework
The left continues to paint blacks as victims, and despite claims to "help" (how smug is that?) no improvements have been made. Rather, we have a series of disasterous social experiments that have destroyed and AA cohesion and at the same time fostered deep seated resentment of this nation. Watch and learn (ha).
I accused you of stupidity not racism, and have addressed your reasoning. You lacking the ability to recognize that, or the fact that I am actually a conservative is just par for the course, though
I have doubts about your conservatism. :roll:
Went to a Jacksonville Jags football game a couple years ago, it snowed. For real, snowed. But either way, Jacksonville sucks. We have a saying in the rest of Florida called "Jacksonville Dumb". That is how dumb Jacksonville is.

We have a mind reader here. Can read whole communities' minds.
And in Georgia we called all of you down there Flori..DUUUHHHHHHH.
He is right. Where do you think the whole "snitches get stitches" thing comes from. The hoods.We have a mind reader here. Can read whole communities' minds.

That seems to be a universal thing, and disproportionally weighted to how badly I want to see a movie. Seems like the more I want to see a movie the more people want to talk at outside volume, and do other classless acts that make me miss half of it. :2mad:Judging by the picture in the OP, I was certain that this was going to be about these guys not shutting the **** up in the theater.
No Butting in line! See what happens? A ****ing riot!And it was an 8:30 show too, so there would have been children in the theater. What is wrong with people?
OTOH, considering the size of the group, it's fortunate none chose to pull out weapons. Even surprising IMO. But good.
