I just looked at his posts and didn't see him say that.
factually wrong
the op says people should be more willing to live in integrated neighborhoods, send their children to integrated schools, and attend integrated churches.
he claimed most all americans already do . .
im asking for proof "most all" churches and schools and neighborhoods have one miniorty person in them
He didn't say "most all churches and schools and neighborhoods have one black person in them" anywhere.
Unless you can tell me the post number where he said that? I just read all of his posts and never saw those words anywhere. In fact I don't believe I saw him mention black persons at all.
Make up strawmen much, pick any minority I will ask you AGAIN
what facts?
the one i already point out simply because segregation laws don't exist any more?
you claimed most all churches and schools and neighborhoods have one MINORITY person in them, please list those facts now thanks
Most all Americans do live in integrated neighborhoods, attend integrated churches, and send their kids to integrated schools. I’m all for walking the walk (and do), but it seems to me that Krattenmaker is just preaching “white guilt”.
See, it is a good practice to actually link to an article if you are going to reference it. That way you cannot get away with misrepresenting what the article says.
1.) This is what I said:
I’ve already provided evidence of my assertion in post #14. If you have evidence to the contrary, please present it instead of (inexplicably) attacking me.
Additional proof of my assertion: https://www.google.com/amp/www.pewr...y-segregated-but-things-are-changing-2/?amp=1
1.) yes i know what ou said i quoted it LMAO
2.) nothign you posted makes YOUR claim true . .in fact it proves our claim wrong :shrug:
nobody is attacking you so that lie fails too. I asked you to support your claim . . so far we are still waiting . .no evidence is needed by me since YOU made YOUR claim. If that bothers you the solution is simply. dont make claims you cant back up and call them facts.
in your next post please post "the facts" which you said you had that makes your claim true instead of further deflecting and posting lies or simply post with honesty and integrity and admit what you post is not a fact. We'll be waiting, thanks!
1.) I have provided clear proof of my assertion. Either you didn’t read it, didn’t comprehend it, or you’re just lying in a feeble attempt to regain face.
2.) In any event, it is clear by the tone of your responses and the deterioration of both spelling and coherency that you are becoming upset.
3.) Either specifically outline your disagreement with my assertion or just move on. Your choice.
4.)P.S. You don’t speak for “we”.
1.) no you factually have not why lie? . . you may FEEL you did but you claimed you have facts that make your claim factual . . nothing you provided does that . . hence you continue dodging and deflecting. Further lyign about it only proves it more and makes it worse.
2.) LMAO wrong again but its ANOTHER perfect example of another deflection that also completely fails
3.) I already did, you made a claim and cant support it so we are still waiting for you to do so.
4.) yes i do LOL all the people reading who disagree with your claim you cant support
so here we are in the same place . . .
Heres your choices
A.) please post "the facts" which you said you had, that makes your claim true instead and ill gladly admit you are right based on said facts
B.) Post with honesty and integrity and admit what you posted is not "a fact."
C.) keep my entertainment going and continue to post deflections and lies while i gladly keep pointing them out for the unsupported nonsense false claims they are
we'll be waiting, thanks!

I can’t read it and comprehend it for you.
As a newbie, I have noticed that many members (and probably guests, too) have a great interest in alleged racism in this country.
So I thought that they would like to know about that author's opinion on that controversial topic.
I do not wish to express my opinion on what he opined. (I feel that it would be a waste of time since everyone is set in his/her ways. Few people are willing to reconsider their cherished beliefs.)
Best wishes!
This morning I just happened to read an online article at USA TODAY.
The title is "White progressives shouldn't be smug about racism. We could be doing much more to end it" by Tom Krattenmaker.
*****
He points out that although progressives always say the right things, their actions are another matter.
He believes that progressives should be more willing to live in integrated neighborhoods, send their children to integrated schools, and attend integrated churches.
He also believes that "white privilege" still exists.
*****
He points out that in some suburban areas of Pennsylvania, progressives have put up signs on their lawns that proclaim: "Hate Has No Home Here." He points out that 95% of those areas are Caucasian.
*****
He is gently and lovingly chiding his fellow liberals for not actually living more ethnically integrated lives. As he puts it, progressives should put their money where their mouths are.
Most all Americans do live in integrated neighborhoods, attend integrated churches, and send their kids to integrated schools. I’m all for walking the walk (and do), but it seems to me that Krattenmaker is just preaching “white guilt”.
And can you, the OP, please explain how 'non-racist' liberals moving into neighborhoods to make them more diverse affects ending racism? They're already not racist. What's supposed to change here?
You must ask that question of the gentleman who wrote that article.
I just brought his article to the attention of members (and guests) who are interested in this topic.
I am just the impartial messenger.
And IMO you are lying about being impartial...you wish to generate controversy and then feed off of it.
*cough...moral cowardice...cough*
Careful not anger Agent J by saying that our metropolitan neighborhoods do include minorities.EVery person who lives in a city lives, works, plays with people of all races/religion/sexuality, etc, while many conservatives hide out in rural, white only areas where they know nothing about the people they hate. They likely never even met one. They all blow smoke up each other's asses and just keep reaffirming their dumb biases. So glad I was fortunate to be born in Long Island and attend a school with other races
Thank you for your opinion.
As you say, a forum is for opinions.
And as I say, a forum is also for members like me to just bring interesting information to the attention of interested members (and guests).
Best wishes
Careful not anger Agent J by saying that our metropolitan neighborhoods do include minorities.I grew up in the burbs, and have moved around a lot (career military) and always had neighbors who happened to be minorities. Maybe out in the sticks there’s some who’ve not met any minorities, but my guess they’d have to be pretty far out in the boonies, but I get what you’re about certain folks, cough MAGA cough.
