Bottum line,what we have learned from this thread is this.That blacks not only continue to ask for handouts but expect it.We have learned that even though AA,which was infact put in place to make sure blacks were given special treatment in college admissions and hiring in the workplace.That many blacks on here and all across the country deny this.That blacks only care for their race.What can you GIVE my race.Why would ya'll admit it.Why would ya'll admit that blacks are not only equal but actually given preferential treatment.That would be the first step to eliminating said programs.But here is what gets me.Instead of a thank you to taxpayers,ya'll decide to bite the hand that feeds you

Which is also wrong.

Ability and character should be all that matters.

What? LMAO...you've lost your damn mind.

Admit that i'm equal? Hell, at a minimum i'm your equal. No one ever questioned that. Believe me...i'll not only admit it, i'll tell it to you without coercion in a New York minute.

As for the "thanks" you so badly seek, you aint getting that either. I'll thank the people that made my wonderful life possible...my parents and the black folks that came before me and laid the foundation....not you!! We owe you nothing in the way of thanks. I mean, "bit the hand that feeds you?" LOL@ the self-flattery. You've never fed anyone, let alone black people. You can barely feed yourself probably.

And HELL YEA we care about our race. Well, i know i do. Am i supposed to not care?

I mean, preferential treatment? Black folks aren't taking anything from whites. Never have, never will. When whites admit to preferential treatment, then i'll admit to it. How about that?

Not "trying" to say anything.

I said it. In English to boot.

It's a very vague statement...Why don't you elaborate on it.
