It just seems that it contributes to a much more easy, carefree, convenient existence to bow oneself out of the responsibilities and expectations that others are saddled with having to orient their lives around and comply with.

Makes life a lot easier, until you wind up in the system; then it begins to really get difficult.

Of great assistance is that there's always someone, somewhere willing to apologize for it.

Personal accountability isn't something that anyone, regardless of race, seems to want to accept. There are challenges that everyone faces in life, and teaching a child to attach their lack of success to White people is reckless and abusive. Opportunity and success are as much attached to the willingness to be accountable for oneself, and the actions taken to achieve objectives, as it is to almost anything else - especially another race of people. No one is owed anything in life. Everything is there to be earned. You gain respect from yourself and others for your drive, vision, and relentless pursuit of your goals in life. Being crippled mentally at an early age by people that have a loser mentality just sets the whole stage up for failure. Plain and simple.
