Some Native Hawaiians have been trying get independence from the United States for a while...

I would explain it but it would be a waste of time.
Declare your opponent brain damaged at the outset and withdraw from the debate... clever tactic when you've got nothing.

You said you didn't understand ( "I see no value"), not me. If you can't see the obvious after analyzing evidence and hearing multiple conclusions, what is the use of trying to explain it? You are incapable of using your brain to the extent of having an intellectual discussion. You can color it however you want to make yourself feel better.

I would have to be a fool if I think I am going to get you to understand something you refuse to understand or are incapable of understanding, either way it is a lose lose for me.

I been on CD long enough to refrain from the closed mind discussions. I just say my peace and move on

huh, stay in school, quit having babies, at least cut down on the crime, maybe get an education. at least learn something new every day. read a book. turn the boom box down at red light. i know personal responsibility . or if you dont want to do either just tell your running buddy to stop that.

its all in the black mans hands because you sure dont listen to white people thats trying to help

LOL, you proved my point.

As stated, I am a black person. I am a college graduate, I am married, I received grades in the top 5% of my graduating classes in both high school and college. I don't own a boom box (lol, you are still in the 1980s I see with your stereotypes lol again, that is pretty funny....boom box!!!). I am 100% certain that I read more than you do. I own 5 homes, 4 of which are investment properties. I have a very high net worth, higher than that of the mean white person's net worth.

I don't need white people to help me. Ironically, I help a lot of white people via my job with their own issues dealing with poverty and housing or with trying to start new businesses.

As stated earlier, many whites associate themselves as individuals. Yet you do not view black people as individuals. I don't know any black person today who owns a "boom box" (I'm hoping you just meant turn down the volume on one's radio lol).

No matter what black people do you will always view us as inferior. IMO, people like this are sad, ignorant individuals and why should I waste my time trying to bring them out of their racist mindsets. That should be up to other white people, not me.

And you'd better believe that there are black people who say things like "why do white people do so-and-so...?" Haven't you ever seen a black stand-up comedian before?

Too many people place too much value on entertainment and faux news. Black comedians are not the voice of all black people in America, similar to white comedians. Their jobs, like the panels/anchors at CNN/Fox/MSNBC and others is to bring attention to themselves with controversial topics most of which are not based in truth but in one's own personal experiences and relationships to society.

I bet I have been around WAY more white people than you have been of black people, yet, I don't view them all the same way. And I especially don't think that all whites in America are characterized by habits of their underclass, which exhibits the same habits of the black underclass (teenage pregnancy, out of wedlock births, crime, drug use, social welfare abuse, etc.) Yet most white Americans, like brownbagg did above, chose to do so with black Americans.
