There are more black males in jail than white males. There's another fact for ya. It's not PC or "feel-goody", but I think people need to begin to recognize facts and work to rectify the social problems which plague our country.
I think its funny how people like to throw around the 75% white number when it comes to saying who's in the majority. But then they turn around and separate out the hispanics when the crime statistics are mentioned.

OK. You will always find something to gripe about towards minorities. If you aren't talking about the high incarceration rate, then you're going to start ranting about black males getting into college because of AA. That is just what racist, insecure, jealous white men do. Because I certainly think you feel threatened by black males.

Oh yeah, I saw your little post about auto mechanics. Where I live, its split pretty evenly between blacks, whites, and hispanics that YOU probably wouldn't claim as white.
What have Whites done? Created this entire civilization, created the technology you are using to chat on this message board, watch TV, travel in planes and cars, etc.

And yes, I consider myself White.

My grandfather worked on the Univac at UPenn in the 50's and created a software company in the 80's. He contributed greatly to the "Internet age". Personally, I am in college, majoring in finance at a private university. Reaping the rewards of my people's hard work and genetics.

What have you done brotha?

Why would there be "more" natural selection for "intelligence" in a European climate? Can you explain what is so unique to a European climate that isn't found in Africa, Asia, northern Canada.

To be fair to the poll, until I walked in everyone's shoes I won't answer it. Life is a ***** to everyone who ain't rich. Everyone who doesn't **** green has it rough.

I'm not sure if White males face more discrimination than other groups, but they are the only group that faces institutionalized racism at the hands of this government.
Oh please, are you freaking serious? This thread is dumb and has NO LOGIC. White men suffer more discrimination? Are you kidding me??????

If you believe that...you have/suffer from one of or a combination of the following:

1. Very low IQ
2. Slept during US History classes in H.S. and College
3. Never took Sociology in college, therefore you must be a college drop-out
4. Are blind and deaf
5. Live under a rock
6. Think fantasy is reality
7. Burned out from all the LSD you did in your past
8. Suffer from delusions
9. A white male who amounted to nothing and now wants to blame minorities for your own short-comings in life
10. Have no common sense

Yes, I am threatened by black males. I have to actively avoid them because they form flash mobs in my city and murder at extremely high rates. Their behavior is despicable. Not all blacks act this way, and I feel bad that they get lumped in with the anti-scholastic, thug culture their brethren perpetuate.

Like I said, I could care less about minorities. I am a libertarian, I hope they pursue their individual happiness in their own way, without infringing upon mine.

I cannot think of one reason as to why white males would be jealous of black males, could you clue me in? We make more money, enjoy greater freedom (lower incarceration rates), are more educated, raise our children at higher rates, etc. etc. etc.

I am sorry if these facts disturb you, but reality isn't a fairy tale. Changes need to be made in your community. I know many great black folks who are doing their part, but the thug, hip hop culture is destroying your family structure and creating environments in which young black men senselessly murder each other.

Something of a tangent - but natural selection is based on more than just the climate...

The same way blacks fear white men. They still practice running over blacks with their pick up trucks, then tie them up to the back of their trucks and drag them through their red-neck towns until they are dead.
