Quote HistoryQuoted: Republicans have done almost nothing to reach out to them. The right message coming from the right person will bring black voters over in droves. Trump was much more popular among blacks than the dems will ever admit. The big cities are never going to flip but the numbers could change in a big way if republicans could make inroads among churchgoing families. To do that they have to try and they really don't. ?? ‘member president kushner’s “platinum plan”? Literally half a trillion dollars of gibs. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: When I was in high school, I made decent grades and scored very high on both the SAT an ACT. A black girl in my high school class had lower grades and significantly lower SAT an ACT scores. I was awarded very modest scholarship to help with expenses for two semesters. She got a full ride to UT. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: In 1980 as I was prepping to graduate high school, one of my teachers pushed me to apply for a scholarship in architectural drafting, He told me "your not Wright, but you've got a talent for it"...I applied, the only other person that applied in our area was a black girl, and she was awarded the scholarship...I told my teacher I guess she is just better than me.....he just "no" leaves a bitter taste, but life goes on. my legacy is a vacation home that was built by a family member on my plans.

Quote HistoryQuoted: I have quite a few black friends. I don't live in a segregated city that breeds racism against white black or brown people. For those of you who think most black people secretly hate you it simply isnt true unless you live in a dominantly black urban area. Same shit as the blatant white racism in most places where there are very few black people and the only exposure to blacks is the crime news they see from urban areas. If I was a black person in white rural Ohio I'd be just as scared as a white person in Baltimore. If you live somewhere that isn't segregated and monocultural by race you should make efforts to bridge this divide imo. It's worth it. Since black people in the farmland are constantly being robbed, beaten, and murdered - right? |

It's funny to me how white people who haven't lived around large black populations tend to have different opinions than those of us who have.
I grew up in majority black areas, I went to majority black schools, I worked a few manual labor/construction jobs with majority black coworkers, etc. I've been in numerous fights with blacks that I didn't start, I've been jumped by blacks multiple times, I've had numerous blacks beg for money and get very aggressive when I said no, I've had a black coworker slash my tires, I've had my car broken into no less than six times, I've had valuables I made the mistake of leaving unattended for a few minutes get snatched up (like my fucking toolbox), I've had to deal with routine riots in my area every time a black criminal gets killed, etc. This isn't even getting into the casual ethno-centrism that's normal among blacks. If they get into a position of power, 9/10 they'll demonstrate an obvious degree of racial nepotism. If there's a disagreement, they'll almost always pick sides on the basis of race, regardless of who's actually right or wrong. If you get into a disagreement with them that goes on long enough, it'll inevitably devolve into you getting called racist. If you're a white guy and you don't automatically bend over to them, they respond with rage and confusion. This isn't a problem that's going to be fixed. The best solution is to just not live around large black populations. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Which racism? I distinctly remember growing up in the 80's and getting the absolute shit kicked out of me damn near weekly by blacks. Your right in that racism is taught, they taught me to never be around them as it's dangerous to one's existence. There are tons of white guys that have similar experiences and I would say it's only gotten worse since then. I don't hate blacks as a whole, I would like them to get their shit toghther but I know that's asking for the impossible, So the best bet is to live in an area where there is hardly any of them. I don't dislike blacks as a whole either, but my experiences growing up and in my early twenties taught me that it's a bad idea to live around large black populations, and that groups of black males often pose a significant threat. It's just basic pattern recognition. |

The moment the context changes and, say, someone is arguing for why we need section 8 programs in suburban neighborhoods, you are no longer able to suggest the argument is, at its core, suggesting people are better off not being in black neighborhoods. In these cases. Even suggest this is "racist." Instead, people will go to great pains to point out that the fundamental issue is socioeconomic status and that those areas they don't want section 8 limited to are just incidentally disproportionately black. Of course, the reason those areas are is once again "systemic racism." Pay attention to these policy debates for any length of time and you will see this inherent inconsistency. |

Reach out to them... and do... what? str8 facts and to answer your question, I have no idea. I wish I did have an answer. The only thing that makes any sense is literally militarization of black areas and systematically removing anyone who engages in violence or vice. That’s exactly the opposite of what black communities want. Black Americans vote 90% for what they want. It’s what they have now, but without cops or any other authority. And according to this poll 50% of them aren’t sure if it’s ok for white people to exist. It is what it is. |

Pretty sure there hasn't been any benefit to it in concrete terms, since getting to feel virtuous is abstract, and a lot of detriments. Also pretty sure if the situation had somehow been reversed there would have been no civil rights movement, b/c it would have been brutally suppressed with an unconcerned public, and no civil war, either. |

Some people seem eager to get this thread locked, as well as to justify the unfair accusations against Scott.

I’m sure that there has been a lot of positive things to come from affirmative action. But I think that its use to artificially reduce the ability of white people to get into schools and careers is destructive. Expand the pool. It’s crazy that there are capable people being passed over for vital roles in society because of their parentage. We need every professional we can get. Artificially blocking black peoples contributions to society, when the want to participate is nuts. Artificially blocking white peoples contributions to society because there aren’t enough black people participating in the pool is nuts. The white people have no control over how black people choose to live. All that being said this is an equally valid point.

Quote HistoryQuoted: It's funny to me how white people who haven't lived around large black populations tend to have different opinions than those of us who have. I grew up in majority black areas, I went to majority black schools, I worked a few manual labor/construction jobs with majority black coworkers, etc. I've been in numerous fights with blacks that I didn't start, I've been jumped by blacks multiple times, I've had numerous blacks beg for money and get very aggressive when I said no, I've had a black coworker slash my tires, I've had my car broken into no less than six times, I've had valuables I made the mistake of leaving unattended for a few minutes get snatched up (like my fucking toolbox), I've had to deal with routine riots in my area every time a black criminal gets killed, etc. This isn't even getting into the casual ethno-centrism that's normal among blacks. If they get into a position of power, 9/10 they'll demonstrate an obvious degree of racial nepotism. If there's a disagreement, they'll almost always pick sides on the basis of race, regardless of who's actually right or wrong. If you get into a disagreement with them that goes on long enough, it'll inevitably devolve into you getting called racist. If you're a white guy and you don't automatically bend over to them, they respond with rage and confusion. This isn't a problem that's going to be fixed. The best solution is to just not live around large black populations. This , grew up in a city w/ a sizeable black population, lots of problems, you stayed out of that part of the city . Lived in two small towns w/ colleges since then , had black students . The students act like black teenagers but know absolutely no one will take their shit. |

The left really hates truths.
I am especially glad he is not backing down. Most of the time, the shrieking left forces weak people to back down and apologize for offending their tender little asses with true statements they don't want to hear. |

Growing up in New Orleans, he's right about black people being a hate group.
The ghetto thugs will be overtly racist and hostile. The educated blacks will be clique-ish and stab you in the back. I get why there is bad blood, but blacks have no desire to get along with whites once they get power. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: You haven’t met a racist until you have dated a black girl. The mother is the worst, followed by all the young bucks at movie theaters who get pissed at you for stealing a good block woman…. Mind you, it’s ok for them to knock up PAWGs but don’t you dare take one of theirs…. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Believe it or not the most racist people I have ever met in my life are not white. Not even close. Ill leave it at that. You haven’t met a racist until you have dated a black girl. The mother is the worst, followed by all the young bucks at movie theaters who get pissed at you for stealing a good block woman…. Mind you, it’s ok for them to knock up PAWGs but don’t you dare take one of theirs…. As a white guy I feel somewhat lucky that a few Asian friends I got closer with gave me a glimpse into their household and mindset when growing up. They do get a surprising amount of random shit comments from both white and black people while minding their own business, but one buddy of mine grew up in a house with a first generation Chinese father who basically called everyone who wasn't Asian, either a "Black Devil" or a "White Devil". The other surprising thing to me as a white guy was how much racism there is among Asians for other Asians. A Korean friend of mine went to work in Taiwan for a while, and everyone at the hotel he was staying at assumed he was just there to do janitorial/menial labor level work- no way a Korean would be there as an engineer doing complex equipment modifications. That was for Asian races higher in the food chain. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I understand however . It was a poll, it doesn't represent the entire Black community. Just another way to widen the divide in America, and he fell for it. You can't judge gun owners for every shooting no more than you can blame Black Americans for every worldstar video. The commies are doing a good job, destroying America without firing a single shot. You really don't want to dig into stats RE: blacks. Crime, education, IQ, health, generational welfare, etc. You really don't. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I’m black. I’m cool with the whites. That’s my anecdote. I don’t know how someone can say it’s not OK to be what you were born as. Seems like a bizarre poll question itself. Some the generate twitter clicks and outrage Agree. I have always wondered how homosexuals could have it both ways. They say that being gay is genetic. And they also say want me to acknowledge their "pride" in being gay. No. I don't give anyone special treatment for something that was a chance of birth. If they make straight "A"s, build a business, produce a respectable family. I will give props. Respect, and acknowledge achievements. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I have quite a few black friends. I don't live in a segregated city that breeds racism against white black or brown people. For those of you who think most black people secretly hate you it simply isnt true unless you live in a dominantly black urban area. Same shit as the blatant white racism in most places where there are very few black people and the only exposure to blacks is the crime news they see from urban areas. If I was a black person in white rural Ohio I'd be just as scared as a white person in Baltimore. If you live somewhere that isn't segregated and monocultural by race you should make efforts to bridge this divide imo. It's worth it. Wow, how on earth did I miss this gem? I'm sorry, but you're going to have to clarify some things for me.As to the part highlighted in red: Are you suggesting A) That the black person in Ohio is in as much danger as the white person in Baltimore? or B) That the white person in Baltimore is being as irrational as the black person in Ohio? As to the part highlighted in blue: You seem to be saying that blacks hatred of whites comes out when they (blacks) are the dominant majority. I'm sure you can see how that might not make white people feel better. As to the part highlighted in green: As a white person, I am privy to the things that white people say about blacks when there are no blacks around. Based on my experiences over the last half century or so, the white people most likely to hold negative opinions or views of blacks are the ones who live/grew up around them. Frankly, it's not even close. Whites I knew who grew up in the city couldn't stand blacks. Many openly hated them... and were not shy about expressing those feelings. On the other hand, whites from the suburbs where there were few or no blacks, took a more... "liberal"... view. People are people, content of character, we're all human, blah, blah, blah. Nothing more than some unscientific anecdotal evidence, but that's what I've seen. (Oh, and I can't speak for how whites in rural areas feel. Never lived or worked in one.) Finally, as to the part highlighted in purple: While you may have black friends, the bottom line is, you're not black. What makes you think your black friends are as honest with you as they are with each other? How would you know how blacks truly feel about... well, anything? |

I have nothing to add to this conversation other than my own naivety.
I went into the Army 3 days after HS, as a young isolated farm kid. I had literally never spoke to a black person. Almost immediately, I was surrounded by other young recruits, about 25% of them black. Although I wasn't "best friends" with all of them, during my time in the Army I had many black friends, a few that remain close 40 years later. I NEVER had a racial issue with any of them. Imagine my fucking SHOCK when I got out of the Army and slowly realized that blacks were as racist as we (whites) had been accused of. I have noticed that rural blacks are completely different than city blacks. Just recently I drove from Florida to Michigan and back. It was like a social experiment. Rural blacks at a gas station in southern Georgia acted COMPLETELY different than the ones I met in Atlanta. The folks I met in rural Georgia were just regular folks. I helped one guy back his trailer, chatted with his wife....we were just normal people communicating. In Atlanta, I was asked for money by a guy who was trying REALLY hard to be scary (LOL). The hotel clerks and people in the restaurant were kinda off....like fake-polite/schemers. Any time we were in a crowd, the vibe was threatening. The glares and stares were odd. I hated it. I have tried all of my life to consciously NOT be a racist.....having been raised by Archie Bunker type bigots. I have always HEARD that blacks are racist, but experiencing it was kinda disappointing. Back to the woods for me....you folks can have the fucking city. |
