I won’t rise to the occasion of your sea-lioning attempt. You know what I’m talking about, you know the answer to my question, and it’s an answer that is uncomfortable for you and and several others.

Just because you don't like the answers that you were given, doesn't make them cowardly or incorrect...just like when you say that "there can only be 2 applicable scenarios" to a situation, doesn't make it so for everyone else. Most presumptuous and egotistical for you to think otherwise, Corky.

WOMP, WOMP.

Huh? You have to establish the definitions of your claims before I can give you my opinion.

Let’s use the NFL as a microcosm. Analogy may seem cliche and lazy but the numbers are what they are.

65-70% of NFL is black. If you had to guess, what position(s) are the white players typically playing? No big Fukn mystery here, offensive line and quarterback. Go figure!

They already did that with affirmative action. Next

It didn’t fix it. But I admire that you are acknowledging that we live in a universe where our government has attempted to rectify something for which it ultimately was responsible.

Doesn’t really have anything to do with what we’re talking about.

My question is whether government failure or character failure (or a combination of both) is why we have the status quo. Athletic ability is not predicated by the government or character.

You are missing the nuance of my analogy.

So, if someone like Jerry Rice dedicates himself to being the best at his position...that doesn't demonstrate work ethic and (gasp) character? To succeed at the highest levels, mere God given talent doesn't do it. (Among many others, Johnny Manziel and JaMarcus
Russell say hello.) Otherwise, things such as diet, coaching, practice and film study would be superfluous.

Once again, here's you destroying your own argument...WOMP, WOMP.

If you look up actual wealth of black families controlled for inflation, it has significantly increased over the past 40 years.

We can argue that (given the family problems) that it could be better. But Blacks in the US are much better off econmically in recent decades.

Please explain how blacks were more persecuted than Jews "for centuries"

I didn't argue that they were. You brought that up.

I know that the question I've asked is an uncomfortable one because anyone faced with it has the choice between a) holding the government to some degree responsible for the current "deal" in black America and b) being a racist.

No one has answered the question directly. A few have called me names.

quote:
what a pathetic argument

It's a multiple choice question, not an argument. You just don't like the choices, so you're lashing out at me.


your response does not surprise me; as most progressives are intellectually dishonest liars, so the fact that you are not any different makes sense

1. I did not "lash out" at you, I asked a question and cited an example that disproves your premise. Calling your pathetic argument/premise pathetic does not constitute lashing out at you (no more than criticizing the ideas of a black man constitutes racism)

2. Your "multiple choice" assertion is preposterous; as I demonstrated with my question

the fact is, Jewish people have been persecuted FAR longer than black people; yet they have managed to thrive in every country they are in

also - Asian people and Hispanics have managed to thrive right here in America, despite also being ostracized and persecuted

3. and finally, your "question" does not deserve an answer; not anymore than the famous "have you stopped beating your wife". A 2 part "multiple choice" question that is nothing more than an agenda driven troll is pathetic

try harder

So in almost every instance governmental involvement and overreach directly into the black communities has been an absolute disaster and your solution is.... More governmental involvement and overreach directly into the black community?

You : “governmental overreach” :: Omar : “Some people did something”

Nice try with that spin.

Still terrified of answering the question. “Oh yeah what about Jews?”

Jews in America have not had it as badly as blacks in America, historically speaking. Worldwide, Jews only rereached their pre-Holocaust numbers this decade, so no, they have not, mathematically speaking, fared better than blacks.
