Not dodging, ridiculing. White supremacists deserve ridicule, and we all know the word you really wanted to use was "uppity."

So what's next? Jews are naturally good with money? White people are good at golf and swimming? Blacks used to be great at baseball, but now it's Latin Americans? Indians are born with a natural ability to write computer programs? And everyone knows who is born with a natural ability to play basketball, right?

Only if you are a bigot.

Nope. You are a racist imho because you said this:

Since Obama argues that blacks are getting screwed because of income inequality, I suggest that we should look at all potential factors why blacks don't earn as much as whites. One of the reason is that as a group they're poor employees.



We disagree that the color of a persons skin makes them "poor employees". I think that is racist, you think that skin color is an indicator of a persons quality.

We can agree to disagree.

I'm sorry if my post has offended anyone that might believe skin color is an accurate measuring stick of a persons worth. Please forgive me for pointing this out.

There is data on some of these matters:

__7.2% of Asians work in Computers and Mathematics compared to 2.1% of Whites and 1.3% of Blacks

__2.3% of Blacks work in Community and Social Services compared to 1.5% of Whites and 1.0% of Asians

__8.1% of Asians work in Health Care Practitioners and Technical compared to 5% of Whites and 4.1% of Blacks
__4.9% of Blacks work in Health Care Support compared to 1.9% of Whites and 2.0% of Asians

__3.4% of Blacks work in Protective Services compared to 2.1% of Whites and 0.9% of Asians

__5.6% of Blacks work in Building & Grounds Cleaning and Maintenance compared to 3.0% of Whites and 2.2% of Asians

Ref: Pew Research - Table 28cont.

[For the record DonDiego worked in Architecture and Engineering as do 2% of his fellow Caucasoids compared to 3.8% of Asians and 0.8% of Blacks.]


Oh, . . . and there is also data suggesting that Asians are significantly under-represented in MLB, the NBA and the NFL:




DonDiego ascribes no evil to anyone with regard to the occupational results reported above.

Forkie continues to dodge my question "Why are the NBA and NFL dominated by black guys?" He dodges because he knows that to agree that we're different yet argue that we're exactly the same proves my point. I have my suspicions why blacks are superior in certain sports, but of course there is no way to know with certainty. Oh, and I suspect that if more blacks played golf and swam as children that they would dominated those sports also.

I have never claimed that white folk are smarter than black folk. I suspect whites are better in some areas and blacks are better in other areas. To argue that we are equal in all areas is illogical.

How many white racists do you know who vacation with black people? How many white racists do you know will be at a blacks friends house for a cookout this Saturday (tomorrow)? You guys make so many assumptions that turn out to be wrong.

You are a white supremacist, because while you judge blacks to be superior in trivial areas like sports, you judge them, as a group, to be inferior in the most important element of our humanity - BY THE CONTENT OF THEIR CHARACTER.
Dodging again, I see. Nope, my black buddy whom I'll be cooking out with tomorrow is of great character.

I'm sure you regard him as an exception, right?

Meanwhile - as a group - you regard blacks as tending to being shiftless, uppity, and criminal. Or have I misunderstood what you've said here?
You again assume incorrectly. Facts are facts, however. Watch................ Forkie will not answer this questions. Which group does best in school? Asians, whites or blacks? Ignoring the facts don't change the facts.

Your question has been answered by sociologists for quite some time.
Poor Blacks, Asians, and Whites perform at the same level.
Wealthy Blacks, Asians and Whites perform at the same level.
Your correlation is true...your implied cause is not.

I dont think your black friend will be very friendly toward you for long if you shared your opinion that his skin color makes his race inferior at learning stuff in school. By all means show him this thread. And Let us know how that goes =)
