Do too many threads here made by white guys who dont even like black people focus too much on 'black people' (mexicans in the 'immigration sec').

Yes.

Why? Im sure at this point we all know.

Inner city blacks focus entirely on sports (basketball and football)...

Rarely do inner city kids focus on education...

Black kids who were raised in multicultural areas focus mostly on education and it shows, even to become a cop you have to show a level of competence.

It's a number game but the inner city children are mostly un-educated and unwilling to seek education... tend to prefer to have someone answer a question for them rather than seek out the answer themselves.

It's a mental conditioning much like the effects on rap music and what it has on the youth.

Great European clubs in France, Portugal, England, Holland and Italy have recruited African, Caribbean and native immigrant children since before World War II. In the 60s, 70s and 80s the first black players appeared as stars for the top European club teams. By the '80s, national teams for England, Holland and France were half black or more, and by the '90s, blacks were appearing in greater numbers for the aforementioned teams as well as Portugal, Ireland, Belgium, Wales, Sweden, and others, and by the turn of this century, the brothers were appearing for teams as disparate as Italy, Spain, Norway, Germany and Poland. Brothers are the stars, and despite rampant racism on the European continent, black players do show a great range of athletic ability, creativity and dominance.
Would you say that inner city black kids favor soccer because it's a popular international sport? It is a great sport, yes, but I don't see inner city black kids favoring it for this reason. Certainly not to the extent of some other sports like football and basketball, track and baseball to a lesser extent.

Not talking about the inner city US. Talking about blacks worldwide.
