I love the notions that some people seem to have about black people...like they know us and know what's best for us better than we do. LOL.
Yeah, LOL... like you're some different kind of people from the rest of us, right? Look, you put your pants on the same way I do in the morning, you're not any different... you're no better than me, and you're no worse than me... we are the same. Equal. There should be no reason for me to justify to you, why I know about what is best for you and I both, or that my opinion isn't qualified because I am not black like you. It is
YOU who is bringing the distinction of race into the debate, as if your race somehow entitles you to some special treatment that white people don't get. That's part and parcel of the problem FDR and LBJ saddled you with, the thinking that you are special and deserve special treatment because of what your ancestors went through. But the rest of us don't get breaks because of what OUR ancestors went through. My people were run completely out of Europe by the ruling class, even more of my people were marched into the desert to their deaths after we took their lands. Then yet another contingent of my ancestors were interned in prison camps in WWII because they were thought to be a security threat.
Liberal white policies???? What would be the alternative be? White conservative policies?
The alternative is, we don't have policies which give preferential treatment to people on the basis of skin color. PERIOD!
Policies that go back to FDR and LBJ? Excuse me? FDR rescued the country from depression and insolvency when no one else could. And LBJ, finished the initiative of JFK, of instituting as law, civil rights for blacks. Are you suggesting that was a mistake?
First of all, FDR did no such a thing, Congress did most of it. And as for Civil Rights, Republicans voted in solidarity to pass it, against the will of most of LBJs own party! No one was talking about Civil Rights, I was referring to welfare entitlements and affirmative action. The host of white liberal initiatives to "make life better" for black people... yet, after 60 years, has done virtually NOTHING for black people.
The only reason blacks can't compete and achieve the same as whites is the blocking of opportunity and resources. You know how you all loathe to share any portions of the pie, you greedy SOB's. And despite it, we rise. We achieve. We excel. We move forward. Must get your everlasting goat.
And you've had 60 years of things being tilted in your favor, yet you still can't manage to lift yourself out of despair and poverty, you still lead the nation in illegitimate births, crime and gang activity, and illiteracy rate. This in spite of all the government "help" heaped on by Liberal White Democrats over the past 60 years. What's 'blocking opportunity and resources' is your own ignorance and failure to do for yourself, instead of standing there with your hand out, expecting government to right all wrongs done to "your people!"
