Because white people in general are obsessed with black people? Look at the amount of threads on CD that ask why aren't black people........or why are black people.........

Whites are always trying to tell black people what they should be doing, thinking and feeling under the guise of "trying to help them". Both political parties do this. Republicans don't really want to help black people, they just want their votes come election time.

Black people have a high number of births into single parent homes. Part of that is due to culture and part is because the fathers are in jail for committing crimes. This needs to be addressed and the dems aren't addressing it.
So why don't you guys bring up issues that occur within the White community ?

Don't you care about the White community?

What gives, why are conservative Republicans, who are overwhelmingly White so preoccupied with issues affecting the Black community.

I know Black people that don't bring up Black issues as much as some of these conservatives
I dunno..you seem pretty preoccupied with the topic yourself

Ya know how libs are always complaining about how “behind” southern states are? Well guess what, most of those southern states have a lot of blacks and all those problems disproportionately affect them. It might be wise for leadership in those states to take issue with problems in the black community.

What does Trump plan on doing, SPECIFICALLY (details), to help the black community? Any idea?


I'm actually asking the question in hopes of getting an answer, by the way. It wasn't rhetorical.

Because young Black males are crappy shots and miss their intended targets.

The costs of violence, welfare and drugs costs us all no matter what color you are. That's why I'm concerned.

The leadership in southern states is Republican and the majority of those states is White

So why don't you guys ever post issues effecting White communities?

Most of today's politics are based on a white issue viewpoint.

They are so concerned because for the last 8 years under Obama if they even blinked at him they were accused of being a racist so now they are busy trying to change that image by over compensating when it comes to black peoples issues.
