Racism is alive and well in America. You guys (and you know who you are) are truly dumb. And besides, it's not a race thing, it's a poverty thing. It's just that more minorities are poverty stricken than non minorities. It has to do with a whole litnany of reasons, race being one, but not the only one. It's called sociology, take a class, learn something you trashy idiotic fools.
that meth study is based on admissions, not addicts.
well they've done there best to curb Clinton de-regulations, but as you can see, it simply was not enough.
You mean Phil Gramm deregulations?

I am from the detroit area and it is a self-destructive community that feeds on itself.
White people aren't leading the nation in murder, poverty, violent crime, dropout rates, new AIDS cases.. we're succeeding. We don't look to the president or the govt for help.. we look in the mirror.
Ah, you do know that there are far, far more white people on welfare than black people, don't you? You do know that there are more homeless white people than homeless black people, don't you? You do know that there are more white drug addicts and alcholics than black drug addicts and alcholics, don't you? Heck, with more than 2 centuries of white presidents, white vice presidents, etc. etc. every white person in the country should be a millionaire by your thinking. Funny thing, when below average students like McCain and Bush are admitted to the top universities it is called "legacy" and no one thinks a thing about it. When a top student like Obama is admitted it is called Affirmative Action and people yell bloody murder. If millionaire bankers and investment people mess up and lose everyone's money they demand that the government bails them out and it is called "doing what is good for America" If a black family loses their job (because it was sent overseas by these same people) and needs some help to get back on their feet it is called welfare and people yell bloody murder. How some folks keep from choking on their own hypocrisy I will never know.

LML you were the last person I gave rep points to which I don't give our freely, so I can't give you another until I do someone else, but I'm ack you putting people in there place
of all candidates tested for the GED (hence, dropouts) in 2007, 53 percent were white, 24 percent were African American, and 19 percent were of Hispanic origin
Honestly, I almost want Obama to win just so black america will stop making excuses.
I'm very anxious to see if black america will progress under Obama.
Don't get me wrong.. I hope and pray things getter better for black america. I'm tired of hearing the excuses.
I truly hope you are not a police officer, I would love to know which Blacks that you have personally spoken to that has made excuses for their situation. How do you think that Obama is going to change Black America(As if that's his goal)? I swear, all the prejudice comments I see on these boards, If people would stop and actually go and talk to people of different races, to see their views, they would realize we are all seeking the same things in life. This place is truly sad.

Yeah I thought about that when I seen his name. Hopefully he's not a cop. If he does, he needs some attitude adjustment. Also while he post stuff like this, he is out there "protecting and serving" with the same type of attitude which leads to mistrust between the cops and the people of the community they serve. Most people can't see they are doing wrong, until they see themselves on video or they are fired for misconduct. Him and a bunch of others completely ignored my class warefare comment, because they don't see who there true adversaries are. They have fallen for the divide and conqor and will be blind to there graves. I truly don't blame them 100 percent, because some of the propraganda put out is strong and certain life events can lead people to view groups of people vs the person.
