As my african american boss would say, "sometimes there is just too many black people in one place"
Dear Blacks,
Dumb shit like this fuels racism just as much as ignorant backwoods hillbillies wearing their pillow cases on their heads do. Half of the blame falls on yourselves.
Sincerely,
MT
PS, I thought everything was different with the messiah in office, shouldn't black people be busy uniting under their savior, or have they forgotten already?

Sad excuse for a human being!
It's real obvious none of you guys have never had any interactions with Black people. Don't you know that you can not judge any group of people by the actions of a segment of that populus. If your generalizations were correct then the NOI's ideology of all Whites being blue eyed blond haired devils would stand to be a statement truth. You would'nt like to be generalzied by the actions of your forefathers who fostered the slave trade and later perpetuated the "Jim Crow"era-Or would you? Hmm.
Generalizations are generally true. Blacks make up over 50% of the prison population yet only make up 10% of the general population.
An estimated 12 percent of African-American men ages 20 to 34 are in jail or prison, according to a report released yesterday by the Justice Department.
Explain.... It was the norm back then.... Take a socialology class and learn about values... They are dependent on society, not personal views. Hence why stoning people to death used to be an acceptable practice for execution, and why the coliseum is as famous as it is today... Just because we view something as obviously wrong now, doesn't mean that's how it was always looked upon

Pretty high percentage if you ask me! I'm not racist, I have black friends, but I'm not blind either. I judge each person individually.
You are right those are facts. The fact is also that we have several underlying factors that contribute to those facts. I digress,this is not a forum to debate someones ignorant attempt to justify slavery. I was simply saying some of the comments made generalizations about Black people are not based on personal everday experience with a cross section of Black America but based on what is prepetuated on television,in the movies & spreading stereotpyes.
Then why did we have abolishinst opposing slavery and others giving their lives for the freedom of those wrongfully enslaved.BTW,dont fucking use socialolgy to justify forcefully taking people from their land and transporting them thousands of miles away only to become endentured servants to the,then perceived,civilized people of what we now know as our great land of The United States of America.

Please go there, this is ON TOPIC and as long as it stays civil this is actually a good discussion.
Fwiw, how is he being ignorant and justifying slavery??? Because last I check from my history classes, it was perfectly legal and acceptable to have slaves up until the end of the civil war. Again, I'm not saying I agree with it or was/am for it by any means. Its just there is a difference between slavery being "right" and slavery actually happening and happening all over the world for hundreds if not thousands of years.
Please give me the underlying factors contributing to those facts, I'd love to hear them.
HEH-HEH-HEH. I'm not going to litter this thread with things anyone in the free thinking world should already know. Again all I am saying is that ther are factors that contribute to the number of the massive disproportionate rate Black men in prison. Remenber the young man who was arrested a number of years ago for cocaine distribution(I think he had attended Marist),well he's out now and judging by the Sun-Times article not too long ago he's making 6 figures and doing quite well. He was convicted with hard eveidence & he's out.On the flipside there are a number of Black men sitting in prison today who were convicted on basically false reasonable deduction manufactured by the feds. Try reading a magazine by the name of F.E.D.S or Don Diva. They will give you the storeies of some of those men.
