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.
The alternative is, we don't have policies which give preferential treatment to people on the basis of skin color. PERIOD!
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.
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!"
You stupid bitch. Are you proud of your post? Because I find it to be total bullshit. And yes, I'm better than you, for a whole host of reasons...least of all , being that you don't know me, or who I came from. My family has members that are household names, the world over. We don't have illegitimate births , crime , gang activity or illiteracy, in my family. So, I have no idea who you could be talking about...because, evidently we don't belong to the same class as you do. You don't know what you're talking about, other than the right wingnut talking points that you got from Fox News, or Rush Limbaugh...and you freaking think that most Americans think as you do. You're but a small, small-minded segment of this society, stuck on stupid and inbred, no doubt, for generations.
Poor white trash, is what you are. Go fuck yourself.
