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?
A very low minimum.

If it weren't for the Republican Party, desertdetroiter might still be in shackles. I'm sure it burns her to know that the same party that ended slavery is the same party she unfairly smears as "racist" at every opportunity.

You're welcome, desertdetroiter. Now carry your own weight like me and other conservatives.

Just so you know, prevaricating is a really poor debating strategy. If you don't have a point and/or can't support your position, just admit it and move on.
There aren't any programs you can do to allow people to better themselves.

The fact that you think the programs the democrats have done ever since the Grotesque Society did anything to better the AA population is laughable. Seventy percent rate of illegitimacy? And you want us to believe your planners planned that community so well that you just need a little more planning.

Sure, about like you need a hole in the head. AA community does still have about 30% left before it goes into total meltdown. Why not give the democrats 50 more years and see what they do to the AA community...

There's a reason why they didn't just give fish out in the communities back in the day. In fact, in Africa, they still don't just give fish out to whoever wants one. They still have to go out and earn their living and this is in some of the most communal type communities in Africa.

So if you're looking for some sort of program that has been implemented to help AA community you won't find one. The very thought that you need to make them a special class or some sort of recipient of welfare simply because they're black I find quiet offensive and if you told them "hey, your melanin is in the wrong concentration, you're defective. Here let me give you things so that you feel better about yourself." I'd hope they slapped you in the face and spat upon your self-righteous body.

Maybe it hasn't happened to you. But it happens. Please give me evidence that it doesn't.

And that pretty much sums up the contradiction of the modern GOP's attitude toward black people. "Why are you still talking about slavery, that was 150 years ago, stop being lazy. Vote for us, we freed the slaves!"

Keep trying that. Maybe you can get some pizza store owner to blather about how black people are brainwashed and on a plantation. Or maybe a disgraced military officer who's still rocking a high top fade in the year 2012.

To hell with the Republican party. You guys haven't ever done a damn thing for black folks. You're not the party of Lincoln anymore....haven't been in 60-70 years if not longer.

So you can scream "you're welcome" all you want cuz not only am I not saying thanks, but there is nothing to be grateful to republicans for. I'll thank the Republicans that were living at that time if I ever see them again.

And I'm not a she.
