I spent the weekend on my family's plantation home.

How does that make you feel?

I am glad you understand that. Now if this next graphic shows drug use rate wise is the same between both black and white why does the black population account for the vast majority of the drug convictions. I'll hang up an listen big bank hank.

Straw dog argument!

Prison is full of drug traffickers not users!

The facts of that case remain. So nice deflection

When there is no longer a racial element to the distribution of wealth and upward mobility, then it can be said that racism no longer exists.

Today in America, other than native americans, blacks as a group have it the worse off in virtually every way and whites have it the best of all racial groups in every way.

Some 90% of the wealth in the U.S. is held by whites. If I remember the figure correctly, blacks Americans as a group only hold like 2% of the total wealth despite being something like 12% of the total population.

I'm switching between about 5 threads right now. And since you sick arse thinks it's funny that innocent people are called racist and blamed for the actions of past people with their skin color, I think I'm about done here.

And the fact that the drug charge is typically a secondary charge and not the reason for the arrest in and of itself.

Oh Lazarus has a warrant out and got popped driving with a headlight out while carrying weight? Yep. Totally the drugs that got his arse arrested.

You don't have to. You in one breath will defend the point racism doesn't exist but in the next breath talk about the racism your black friends face. I'm good on furthering this conversation with a confused individual.

White go applies to Exxon, needs a masters. Black guy applies to Exxon, all he needs is a GED.


Do not go there I am an engineer in south Louisiana. All a white guy needs is a paran that works there save me on this bull shite.

You are too fricking stupid for words. I wonder why these black colleges were developed?

You're confusing correlation with causation.

You don't have to be white to benefit from nepotism. But sure. Okay.

When African Americans value two parent homes and education as much as whites, distribution will dramatically change.

Probably due to SES. See above

The problem with looking at raw data and not factoring in actual elements of society would lead anyone to believe statistics are racist.

Don't deal drugs on the street
Value education
Value two parent homes
Stay reasonably sober

That's how you build a foundation for wealth

Stop being intellectually dishonest. You know the op claimed that white guys had to have a masters to get on at Exxon. I made my statement to refute that lie. Do not try to act as if I am confusing nepotism with racism.


ETA Y'all will try every trick in the book.

Do you consider people who identify as Jewish as 'white'?

Asking for a (((friend))).

ETA: returning to the OP, I think we whites should sacrifice and work together to prevent people of color from all nations from making the horrible mistake of immigrating to the US, so that they will never feel the pain of institutional racism.

It's the least we can do to atone for the sins of our fathers.

I haven't tried any "tricks". I've just respectfully asked you to put forth your argument as persuasively as you could. You responded with some graphics that make an assertion that can't withstand even the simplest scrutiny.
