I'm shocked you don't blame the kids.

Why? What do you base that one? Where have I blamed children? Link or apology.

Because many disagree with both of your choices. Someone once asked me if I supported Bush or Sadamn Hussein.

As to your last point, I think Asians place more of an emphasis on education than any other race.
LMAO....just what I thought. It's ok to talk about blacks as a group, but we have to address whites as individuals...and worse, we can't even admit that whites had a tremendous head start over every other race.

Of course, we can discuss why blacks have fallen behind (not that they ever caught up) whites. But we can't discuss why whites have fallen behind Asians despite being the only race with a built in, institutionalized head start that was codified by law.

I swear, I understand more and more each day the things my dad told me.

I'm simply asking you what a "tremendous head start" even means. Head start at what? What does that mean?
