The Moynihan Report was issued in '65 that is 46 years ago rounded up is 50 years. Oh well in 50 years the Black rate has more than tripled, the white rate even more. Still most Black children are born illegitimate and most white kids are not. These are the facts today.
Yep and can't be bothered with facts or logical or moral consistency.
Since you agree with Eddie, I'm assuming that you can point to where anyone in this thread has said this isn't a problem. Can you do that?
I'm now reached an "OK...so now what?" point. OK, there's a problem. What's your SOLUTION? Complaining about a problem on a message board won't do anything at all.
And you refuse to go ask the people that can give you the answers that you so desperately seek. You already know that CD isn't the place to get the answer, so why come here and ask? I don't ask questions on message boards that i can get elsewhere.
I may need a new line, but you need a new method...and some guts would help too.
And the "again you continue to refuse the obvious" line is worn out too. I'm not refusing anything. Hell, i don't even know what you're talking about (not that you do either).
I didn't ask any questions. I just provided the answers you and Choc refuse to accept. Again your slip is showing. Go back and reread my posts if "you have the guts"
Nope...you're clearly clueless about this subject, basing all of your opinions off of YouTube.
Will you ever answer my question regarding your remedy for the black community? Are you doing your part?
I can only live my life by living up to the standards I hope to see dominate in the Black community one day. I think I do that well enough but there definitely is room for improvement.
Frankly I think the problem is with Black adults not acting like adults. These kids really are not exposed to Black males and females acting like positive, productive adults. I rarely blame black kids because look who they have to look up to.
As far as volunteering and the like. Although I've done some of that in the past, I don't think it has much of an impact as I suspect you think it does. You help these kids with their work for an hour or two and then it's back home to God knows what.

You showed nothing and I'm now convinced that you lack anything of real substance to add to this conversation. At this point, your goal seems to be to argue for argument's sake.
You're in way over your head on this topic. The more you persist, the more you show this to be true.
I would say, that "Black Manhood" is not racist towards tall, blonde, women. As a matter of fact, I have dated many black men, and enjoyed it very much. Black women are pretty mean to black men, usually putting down a nice guy who works at "Target" as not good enough, they are quite ruthless in wanting a "top shelf guy" and expecting to be showered with expensive gifts. A nice black guy does not have a chance with black women.
That's not true about all black women. I will say this there are some black men out there that mistreats black women too, so it goes both ways. What you just said is so typical for a white woman to say without knowing everything thats going on..

I haven't refused to do anything. I'm a black man...you CAN'T...or shall i say, it is physically impossible for you to tell me anything about black people that i don't already know. Please, stop flattering yourself. You're not plugged in as much as you think you are. Or better yet, you aren't plugged in at all. The most you can do is cite cold facts and stats. Anything beyond that is a complete enigma to you. So you're in no position to lecture me about anything "black."
Now again...the question is simple, and so is the answer: if you have a question to ask black men about the job they're doing, why not go directly to them and ask them yourself instead of asking folks on C-D where no answers will be provided to your satisfaction?
If you can't handle the question, then just say so. Your stock isn't going to drop with me because of this admission. I know a sucker when i spot one....the fork is already in you. It's simple...are you going to ask them or not?

Well, my question was in response to BullDog's remedy for black women to date white men, so this didn't apply to you.
re: Black adults acting like kids. OK, where do you think this behavior was learned? As an adolescent, watching irresponsible adults around them. At this point, the adults are probably a lost cause. So what do you do? Focus your energy on the next crop of youth growing up in this toxic environment. You say you don't blame the kids, but your posting history proves otherwise.
re: volunteering. While I don't believe that you ever have, I'll play along. What you're saying is that you basically gave up. Right? Just like the fathers in these kids' life? So, you are deeply critical about the bad path that many youths are going down, but you lack commitment to really do anything about it. Do you think this is going to magically turn around?
As you said, black kids need positive role models. You will either step up and be one, or you won't. But if you won't/don't, then you have very little room to criticize and/or point fingers. It's really quite disgraceful if you do.

Actually what I agreed with was liberals avoiding direct questions. I figured that was easy to understand, but then again, maybe not to some. Such as yourself. Or, maybe, you are trying to project upon me an argument I wasn't making?
As evidence of this, and devastating to your post to me, is that the poster I asked to back up their assertion still has not done so.
Thanks for playing again, though, Choclot.
