Well, you do live in a TX.... not the best run state by any means.
Are you aware of what shape NJ was in before the Donut Professor became guvna? New Jersey, historically, not a very well run state. Could probably learn a lot from Texas.
What does that have to do with ignoring the past in this country?
Im pretty sure that was in response to a prior comment so out of context it is meaningless. Meaningless as in the past of the country as well. Blacks in this country have more opportunity and freedom of choice and independence than at any other time in history and any other place on this planet.
Do you think it will ever be equal to whites in this country or any other? Even in other countries where there are no whites the darker skin people are held down or pushed back.
White America did not create the 'fear and suspicion' when a black man gets on the elevator.
OJ did so much to reinforce that kind of fear than ANY white person.
White America did not create the 'fear and suspicion' when a black man approaches you in public.
Gangsta culture did more to reinforce that kind of fear than white people.
White people did create the stereotype of black kids burglarizing homes.
Black kids burglarizing homes did that.
Crime is committed by all races.
This so called president has set back race relations 100 years with his racially biased actions that started in his first months in office and culminating with this event. The man is supposedly a freaking Harvard lawyer and should know how a lawyer should act.
Many blacks want respect and acceptance from everyone, yet they don't respect anyone much less themselves.
No matter who was on the bottom getting the holy **** beat outta them, that person could not retreat from that situation, therefore that person had the right to defend his life - no matter what race that person was.
A trial was granted on false misleading statements propagated by the media and race baiting bastards, but the verdict was not what you wanted, demanding blood at any cost. Who are the perceived vigilantes now? Blame the people involved in bringing this to court, not the law.
Bingo. And that shouldve have been among his remarks, going into the violence in the black community. But now, he didnt go there. He doesnt want to get his people angry for speaking by speaking the truth.
He may be afraid of Jesse Jackson. Jackson did say he would like to cut Obama's balls off when he was first elected when Obama just slightly criticized the black community about absent fathers. Jesse had a hot mic and didn't know it. LOL
Obama does need to walk a thin line. He can't turn the black community off him since the Dems need the black vote come the mid-term elections.
"Looked down upon", "did not care for", "much preferred the company", "ideological sympathizers". If only black on black crime was so gentile.
Well, back when Jews from Russia were the impoverished people living in the U.S. ghettos beside the Italians and Irish, and were well represented in ethnic criminal gangs, and were prominent prize fighters, these Jews from Russia could be as predatory on their own fellow Jews as La Cosa Nostra was on their fellow Sicilians/Italians and Crips on Black-Americans.
Maxwell Street in Chicago during the early 20th Century was supposedly a very violent and crime ridden Jewish neighborhood.
But you are right, today Jews are usually well-off and network professionally with one another very well.

What you have highlighted in no way compares to the hundreds of years of Black Africans raping, killing, beheading and making slaves of fellow Black Africans. It still goes on to this day in Africa and the lack of unification amoung US blacks and the ongoing crimes against each other: gang killings, robbery, males impregnating and not marrying or supporting black mothers, dealing drugs within their own communities to black community members, etc..
In a certain sense you are correct. Black Africa arguably has provided more of its people to roles of enslavement to others that were not black than any other race or or non-black ethnicity on earth. I'm sure ancient Jews enslaved other Jews (you'd get that impression from biblical comments about slaves). Not unlikely on the scale of black Africa for so long.

If only blacks would just "look down upon" other blacks instead.
Well... they could be pretty prejudice. To know what I mean you'd have to know that the Jews from Germany that moved to the United States usually moved right into the middle-class right away. Many were well educated in Germany and were in the upper-middle-classes or middle-classes in that country. In Russia they were often dirt and poor, lacked much formal education, and discriminated against in the Czars' Russia. When they came to the U.S. they moved immediately into the ghettos. That being akin in some ways to the difference between the Scots-Irish and Irish in the United States when each came to the U.S.
The Scots-Irish being essentially people of Scottish ancestry that moved to Northern Ireland. The Irish being those native to Ireland. The former were often formerly educated and moved immediately into the U.S. middle-class when arriving into the United States. The latter were usually not formerly educated, not past a certain grade, and were poor and hungry (some starving) when they arrived penniless in the United States. So, bad was it in Ireland during the Potatoes Famine that some would sell the clothing off their back to get money for a little food to eat. Their English landed wealthy had plenty but would rather see the Irish starve or sail off to America than help tame their hunger. There is a certain malice in that.
So, while I'm not so sure German Jews would have watched Russian Jews starve to death in front of them--even for German Jews that might have been a bit much--the German Jews did look down their noses at Jews from Russia the way Scots-Irish did to the Irish and the way Northern Italians have towards Sicilians.

Who is the greater evil? Your white neighbor who may be slow to give a hand out or a hand up or your fellow black neighbor who is willing to cut your hand off to help his own?
The latter of course.
I was only pointing out the Jews have not been this one monolithic group that has always treated each other with the best of intentions and with love and respect.

I have to wonder what standards were used to allow obama to take a college seat at Harvard! Clearly, he fails to understand that he has no authority to direct jury verdict or in any way interfere with a good verdict.
