...and that is the business of every OTHER group in a community.
The idea that "what members of [Fill in the BLANK] ethnic/racial/social group do that affects the whole community" is no business to "outsiders" is lunacy.
Like I said, people look out for themselves all the time. If one is to talk about Blacks doing that, then you have to talk about everyone else doing it as well.
I have much more respect for the black conservative in general, than I'll ever have for the white liberal. I CAN GUARANTEE you that if the white liberals were forced to live in the same areas in which most black conservatives grew up in..they wouldn't stay liberal for long. It's easy to preach diversity when you dont have to live in true diversity everyday. It's easy to preach diversity when you live around a few token minorities who probably are wealthy as well or at least middle to upper middle class. It's not hard to be a white liberal in todays day and age. But it is hard to be a black conservative.
Patronizing is a euphemism, basically for, make stupid assumptions.
No, patronize is a word, which means to treat with an apparent kindness that betrays a feeling of superiority.
As I said, R's don't patronize Blacks. They consider Blacks to be capable of working to lift themselves up.
Dems patronize Blacks by convincing them that they're victims and that society owes them, all delivered in an oh so kind manner from a distinctly superior attitude.

And Republicans have used language comparing Blacks to being on plantations. You also have Trent Lott's comments, New Gingrich's comments. Gingrich's comments basically are based on the assumption that all blacks want are free things.
And consider this. Discrimination, such as that on the job, is still an issue in this nation.
Neither party is helpful when you look at it. All I see here is a partisan slant.

I've seen more whites and hispancis discriminated against at work than blacks, BY FAR... You're a smart guy I'm sure you can figure out why.
Instead of MORE conservatism, what is needed is more moderate think, more independent thinking. I do not believe that conservatism is the answer at all.

And yet, Blacks with a college diploma have an unemployment rate on par with Whites with only a high school diploma. Given all education levels are equal, Blacks still get passed up for jobs more than Whites do.

Um... because Dems keep Blacks there. By design. For votes. Create a dependency, provide for it, lock in the vote. And it has worked.
You really don't get it, do you?
Comparing Blacks to slaves is no way to get them on your side.
And what dependency? Last time I checked, you don't have to be on welfare if you don't want it. It is a choice to use it.
