How do you ever get that being disliked, banned, and even persecuted by others mean one is in the wrong?
are you as amused as i am by the way artie and anna act holier than thou in calling us on our fruits? :darwinsm:

Zoo, who exited with no particular fondness for me, was sharper and fairer on his worst day here than you likely will ever manage, because mistaken or not (and he made them, with the faith and with some who cared about him) he aimed higher. Granite, like everyone, had his moments. But dismissing him as a halfwit just makes you look even less discerning, which is saying something (and wouldn't it be grand if you managed to, one of these). Barbarian would no doubt find your still thinking on him amusing enough.

Zoo was a smug pervert who unashamedly called the most vile evil "good." Granite was a moody juvenile halfwit. Barbie a straight up dishonest liar.
Actually unhinged? The female.
That would move it from roughly 17% in 2001 to an alarming 33% in present day, if that estimation holds true. Which would be a wee bit short of the 70%. In the same way GM is a wee bit short of reasoned or fair in the attempt.http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/10/04/racial-disparities-criminal-justice_n_4045144.html
Not quite 70%. It may have been 1 in 6 in 2001, but over their lifespan, 1 in 3 will be incarcerated at some point in their life.
It's a meaningless statement unless you (the person advancing it) wants to demean or taint a group by finding a way to connect the infamous and innocuous.Here is Grosn original point;
At least 70% of Black males are connected to the prison system in some way or another.
Supra. It's a junk statement with only one sad purpose.He didn't say in prison at one time or even over the course of their lifetime. He said connected to the prison system.
No, the numbers we looked at would cover parolees. And including the latter and, who knows, prison guards, people whose living is tied to the system, deserves a loud "Whooo-ha!" as a sad effort to taint, supra.He must be including those on parole or have close friends or relatives in the prison system.
I doubt it, but if it did the value would only exist in its ability to frame GM's desperation, gullibility, or willingness to use a dishonest tactic toward a disreputable end.That number may be close to 70%.
Eh, ok then.
:e4e:
You shouldn't write me off so quickly. I am just going by what you said and your giving credence to those who ban.
Trolls?
Nah, just posters who got right under some of you lot's skin.
iow, trolls
You trolled a black girl you don't really know well but went to HS with...on FB. Yeah, given your comments about women and minorities I can imagine what happened, both with the nature of your response and her reaction to it.I got into this stupid argument last night with a black girl I knew back in high school. She's been on my FB for years and we don't regularly talk, but she made this post demonizing Trump and talking about BLM- and when I responded to it, you can figure what happened next :chuckle:
See, your rich fantasy life aside, you can't really do much of that on FB. It's all mostly just typing a lot.She acted EXACTLY as you see them act when they are on the streets 'protesting'- completely irate, loud and obnoxious, impossible to have any discourse with..
They women or they black? I want to keep your prejudice as accurately categorized as is possible.because they know that they are perpetuating a fake agenda.
Or maybe just you, which if your statement is true would make them completely deaf, hearing neither reason nor, you know, you.They don't want to hear the sound of reason![]()
So you're saying all you really have in common is geography?And the thing is, this girl has a very privileged life- she graduated in the same year I did, went to the university here, and lives a very fruitful life.
You're half right...if not the half you mean.But this what these so called movements do to people, they turn others into blithering idiots what think they are victims.

No, she's a girl you mostly don't know who you decided to troll on FB and then you decided to come here and make her your fantasy illustration/confrimation of your bias. Only you used terms to describe her that don't really make sense in relation to a FB post and you forgot that most of the people here have read you going on about both women and the BLM movement.Yeah, she's just a victim in the matter right?
Well, I can, sure. Any reasonable human being can have a reasonable conversation with any other reasonable human being. Race doesn't really factor into that equation.You can have discourse with a black man, or even an older black woman.
Again, no one here knows what she wrote or what you wrote to her. I do know that you tried to describe your drive by of a relative stranger singularly in terms of her response, which you characterized this way:Try having a conversation with a young black woman on this subject. If it doesn't end up with her acting like an irate idiot than you'll have unlocked a secret door of the universe
"She acted EXACTLY as you see them act when they are on the streets 'protesting'- completely irate, loud and obnoxious, impossible to have any discourse with.."
The point is your filter needs cleaning.The point is, your agendas set in very well with them
