Getting back to topic. I shot a few of my loads the past few days. Some in NYC and the other in the Hamptons.

It's dangerous people!

And so on.
There are so many things I could add to this thread, but I think that Phunk has already mentioned a good part of it.

Setting aside that uprooting people and packing them at the bottom of cargo boats, and de-humanizing them as mere 'chattel' for slave labor was somehow not going to have some consequences further down the road. Acting surprised that taking away their traditions, family histories and ancestral memories for more convenient cotton-picking efficiency may have left a blank somewhere, when those who do so revel in celebrating their own.

That chronically denying them mortgages, affordable credit and economic opportunity for advancement, or even dignity for that matter was not bound going to create some situations where many of them felt that it was so hopeless, why should they even bother trying?

It's always easy to belittle anyone once you de-humanize them. (After you've built your nation on their free work)

Go on...

But like the song says, how about trying to "Walking A Mile In My Shoes" ?

Looking at the result rather than the cause seems like a good way to keep perpetuating most situations.

As a society, we saved money then, and it may end up costing more now. Privatized incarceration facilities certainly aren't complaining, as they are happily billing state and federal government for all of those jailed.

Maybe Goupie needs to move his portfolio to some of those companies, by the sound of it they're going to be thriving in the coming years?

Exactly.

Plus, the participants at this party were at the west indian day parade, did the US enslave their ancestors for generations in this country and take away their traditions too? Serious question zuki.

There is so much to work with here and the plethora of generalizations are golden in this thread. Regardless, I would like to add mine:

Zuki is partly right - But the Chinese comparison is like apple and oranges. Yes, on a philosophical level of pure monetary achievement from the ground up the Chinese expedite the process but aside from that the chinese culture is numb one... it gives me nothing and it doesn't move me. There is no passion. As a matter of fact I don't trust them, including some of the 2nd generation american ones. They are always looking from the side of their eyes (no pun intended).

The black culture has so much passion and history to their culture that I think it's a double edge sword for them. The music, the arts, the intensity, the athleticism, the ability to transcend humanity to a primal level of pure joy. But their intensity for mankind impedes them from absorbing a bit of the coldness that is necessary to manipulate other humans in finance and social class like the whiter race.

Another thing is that aside from the slave history, this country does a good job at keeping them docile especially in the south. Remember the time of the black panthers, they were all clean cut, nicely dressed, intelligent men and woman with a strong opinion on race and what was declared of them "a ter.rorist type organization".

I really hope there is a revival of something similar to the Black Panthers to counter the Tea Party (AKA: KKK).

Were you bred as a racist or is it a primate gene you have going on there.

"racially tinged"? lol

uppity just wrote that blacks are Primates.

That's not tinged - it's burnt.

And FYI, I wrote not one thing that could even remotely be construed as "racially tinged" in this thread.

I know its a lot harder to succeed if you're black (odds stacked against you from the start) but I hope you're not implying its futile to even try (stay in school and out of jail, not get pregnant as a teenager, etc).

When will Goupie finally have enough to do that he stops posting his stupid political threads?

Honestly, Newbreed, if you have money, which seems to be the case--you are in a privileged place. Be thankful for that and stop bitching about everything. It's so tired and annoying. If you spent as much energy learning about people and situations that are different from yours as you do posting these stupid, angry, one-sided threads/posts that have never had anything to do with the point of this board, then maybe you would actually become a less angry person.
If you really need to complain that much, go cry in a fucking pillow. No one else really wants to hear it, they only respond to defend their beliefs or jerk off their overblown egos. Every time you post a new thread, all I want to do is either yawn or roll my eyes. I can just see you in an old age home at 80, in a wheelchair, yelling at everyone around you to bring you your jell-o, but no one bothers to come because they hate your god-damn guts. All the time living off social security. You're a cunt.
