um... where in that statement did he specify that the child was African American?

Are not Mexican, Arab, Chinese, Japanese, Native American, etc... also minorities???

I think they are...

Stop assuming that African Americans are the ONLY minority.

Gee, if msharmony is correct, then I wonder how all of my high school classmates were able to achieve their goals.

Here is a group photo from my recent 30-year high school class reunion:



When I was born, my high school was an all-black high school located a few short miles from the site of a race riot that took place in 1921. My black classmates were determined not to let any racism prevent them from achieving their goals, and they didn't.

The harsh reality is that a complete elimination of institutional racism doesn't result in economic equality for all. When the playing field is level, there will still be losers because not everyone is equally talented. The fact that you lost and someone else won doesn't imply that the other person had an unfair advantage.

how did you have a credit score without a job , pray tell?

how did you have any money to pay rent, or cell phone, or car insurance,,,w ithout a job , pray tell?


to build a HIGH credit rating, you need to build up credit, which is done by accumulating BILLS and paying them on time,,,

and thats why the intellect is declining in this country,, keep believing all the hype the haves put out there

keep acting as if the struggling americans are less than crap who are just getting their just desserts

and I will pray you never end up one of those 'whiners'

I completely understand what 'minority' means, and the disparity goes further than the numbers suggest they SHOULD

so the age old excuse of it just being about the numbers doesnt hold,,,

no, for every list of ten affluent black people, you can find a list of hundreds who are WHITE

is that more specific?

thats called DISPARITY,,,,as mentioned before

I have NEVER said there was no slavery in america,, but keep trying to distract, apparently the majority in this thread are on the distraction bandwagon

I can post it as simply as possible, ONE LAST TIME

THE PAST effects the present

a PAST of smoking a pack of cigs per day may have resulted in that lung cancer TODAY

a past of institional segregation and racism may have resulted in the disparity in opportunities TODAY

,, if people choose to remain ignorant to that, I dont really have much else I Can say

You had SPECIAL GOVERNMENT up until FIFTY years ago

dont you get that yet?


I dont blame your ancestors for anything, I blame the US GOVERNMENT and its INSTITUTIONAL HISTORY OF RACIAL DISPARITY

and who cares if someone thinks Im racist or sexist or blames my ancestors, they could think that all they want so long as it doesnt restrict my opportunities and rights

if people make ASSUMPTIONS without knowing you , they are jackwads, and thats a personal problem

not an INSTITUTIONAL one,,,

how is a white male in this country 'screwed'?

give me one statistic that supports that claim

I have never seen so much distraction and denial as when the issue of slavery , or racism comes up,,,

how could they be the cause of auto jobs being saved,,?

the questions are endless,,,

as others whose jobs were saved were directly related too

sorry for your job loss, but you seemed to bounce back fine,,,,,

yeah, in AMERICAN history,, they primarely were

europeans came as indentured servants, fully capable of EARNING their rights and citizenship,and not generationally sold to the highest bidder decade after decade after decade, big difference there


but we can pretend a reference to slavery made towards a black person has NOTHING to do with their race,,,

and siegel opened ANOTHER property and expanded upon two others


I guess he was able to do well under OBama after all, but can probably be even more profitable by cutting the wages he pays his workers and blaming it on 'this administration'
