You're really bad at this.
What are you talking about???

Where did I ever personally attack you? I simply disagreed with the outrageous things you posted. You are obviously trying to disrupt the thread and bait others into a fight with you. I won't fall for it.

I know you're taught that hate-facts are to be ignored, but you have to become a grown-up and accept some uncomfortable facts of life if you want to seriously get to the bottom of complex issues.

If you want to just go along w/ the status quo, by all means, avoid such provocative hate-facts.
I'll save readers the time.

I mean - you did read it, right?

It seems highly likely to us that both genes and the environment have something to do with racial differences.
The debate about whether and how much genes and environment have to do with ethnic differences remains unresolved.

Exactly and that is why when Democrats turn out and vote, as they traditionally do in presidential elections, they win. There are more registered Democrats in America than Republicans.

If the Democrats could only motivate their base to vote in the midterms as well, the GOP would be finished.

Get it? Of course not.

Dylann Roof isn't your only kindred spirit, and the Bell Curve? Completely discredited by anyone who isn't a right-winger.

Link to those landslide prediction, please? It's telling that Bush had to scratch and claw to victory as a wartime president with 50+ approval ratings. Our changing demographics were already working against him.



Believability of this statement = 0/10
  • How do you know? Did that 11 million elect you to speak for them?
  • 2014 proves that wrong.
  • What you believe is irrelevant to the topic.

Democrats support treating all people equally regardless of ethnicity? Not really. The Obama admin has come out in favor of race-based admissions policies in universities, for example.

Yet people continue to pack their bags to move to the South as fast at they can. Boeing just opened a 787 aircraft assembly plant in SC and Volvo just announced a new vehicle assembly plant there as well.

Considering the sad state of the economies in most of the other states the South is doing pretty good for itself.

And you just assume that these people will come out and vote next November. Which is a big ASSumption.

So if they win the White House does that mean Obama and his Democrats are all the true racist?
