You know what, the blacks have pretty much played all of their cards.

As bad as slavery was, had it not been for slavery, they would still be in Africa...and might still be slaves.

Dry up, pull your head out of your ass, after all of 40 yrs of affarmative action...if anyone's keepin' ya down...it's yer own dumb ass.

Grow up,

Chas

What's keeping many people of color down is ignorance. Ignorance of how to take advantage of the opportunities that are out there. It is up to you, me, the black leaders and most importantly the parents of the children to make them aware.


As far as that water under the bridge stuff goes, wasn't it the tribal leaders who sold the slaves to the Europeans?

i've been calling mickey d's "blackdonald's" for quite a while now. no offense to the african-american community intended. but it's quite obvious that mcdonald's is catering to the black community. and helping to keep them overweight and poor.

Not sure if my response was taken correctly. What I was trying to say is why divide us. We are all humans and should be treated the same way.

I agree very strongly with this.

All other cultures are asked to assimilate into one unifying American culture.

They see a marketing opportunity and they don't seem to care what effect it may have on our country.

Capitalism cannot exist w/ a strong regulating government. That is why our economy is in the shitter. We have more pages of law and its' interpretation than we have printed currency.

Capitalism is a great system, the problem with it is that it will leave behind those without the gumption to get off their ass and earn something. This generating a class of people that are prime for the picking, by telling them they have a "Right" to everything that others have had to earn, "Spread the Wealth", sound familiar?

I am "The Average Joe", with an income level below poverty level, but I have a good life, w/ all the needs taken care of, and a little left over for the "Wants", however my wants do not include part of what you have.

Now "Hold my beer, and watch this", YeeeeeeeeeeHawwwwwww, Get on Mule!
