  1. Yet another cornerstone of the so-called "fake news" falls by the wayside. Remember how the MSM ridiculed and ostracized anyone who dared put this theory forward? Even noted member of the Left Jon Steward was pilloried for daring to contradict the Approved Narrative when he was on the Colbert show. https://news.yahoo.com/dare-jon-stewart-reflects-lab-202138738.html
  2. In other words, they are doing very well. Median income of 90% of overall US average. Also, comparatively few are illegal immigrants. I am not sure your point. Except perhaps to show that racism is not a barrier to success in America.
  3. ...or the money actually repaid to the lending institution by the debtor will be available for that institution to lend to OTHER people. Who will then use it for their purposes. Go figure.
  4. Seriously? Someone from Somalia or Nigeria or Ethiopia had it better than African Americans who grew up in the US?
  5. Kind of simple really. To the whining students: "it's a loan. Pay it back". Not too hard. Nobody was forced to take out student loans, nobody but the borrower should be forced to pay them back.
  6. You are referring to the ADOS community of black Americans I take it? Funny how nobody has been able to answer how recent immigrants from Africa are somehow able to outstrip so-called 'native born' African American ADOS people. Perhaps race isn't the issue. As for Adams, I am sure he is getting ready to jump to Substack if he hasn't already.
  7. To quote the great Neil Young, "shoulda been done long ago"...
  8. He was no kind of shooter at all before they attacked him. Other witnesses on the scene described their behavior as aggressive and violent, NOT Rittenhouse. He tried to disengage and de-escalate but was not allowed to by the rioters.
  9. There is no military or police force in the world that trains members to "shoot to injure". That is a fallacy from bad Hollywood movies. Firearms are only to be used if your life is in danger, and then they are to be used to neutralize the threat. Aim for the "centre of visible mass". As for being from outside the community, Grosskreutz drove from farther away than Rittenhouse. So logically he shouldn't have been their either, eh? Ditto Rosenbaum, who was from Texas and had just been released from a mental hospital in far away Milwaukee. Shoulda stayed home too.
  10. Not these two... a net benefit I would say. Again, THEY chose to chase a guy armed with a firearm, THEY were angry that he was spoiling their fun. If THEY had stayed home, they wouldnt have been shot. Or at least if they had protested peacefully.
  11. Same situation in Japan. But to be fair, women in Japan generally control the money anyway. When I see regular (J and J) couples, 95% of the time the woman pays for the shopping, restaurant bill, Etc.
  12. Vietnam has one of the lowest rates of returning travellers in the area. Very few tourists who visit actually want to visit again. They say the traffic, noise, etc are the reasons. Plus for anyone looking to make a longer term visit, there are really no options after your 30 day tourist visa runs out.
  13. Yeah, real clever..... if you can find one person making that argument for you to straw man, feel free to point it out. The protesters were exercising their civil rights (at least until they started causing the $50 million of damage in the town). So was Kyle. He was doing nothing illegal. HE is the victim, not the rioters.
  14. They were certainly racIAL, but not racIST. He didn't say anything about blacks being inferior to whites, or any other group. The survey he was referring to simply showed the sad state of affairs that overattention to minor issues has brought. The US is the least racist it has ever been, and is probably the least racist nation on the planet. Hard to call a country "racist" when a black person has occupied virtually every top job in it. Any other nation G-7 or otherwise that can make the same claim?
  15. Wrong on many levels. But don't let the facts get in the way of your vituperation. First, he drove about 10 miles, not "hundreds". He did not bring his weapon, it was already in Kenosha and it was perfectly legal for him to have it. AR-15s are rarely used in crimes. And the "peaceful protestors" did $50 million of damage to the city. Other than that, feel free.
  16. Thank you for admitting that you were wrong. Blake survived and later was charged with a variety of crimes. And convicted. His shooting was righteous- he had sexually assaulted a former partner and was reaching for a weapon.
  17. We in the "challenged by gravity" community prefer the phrase "person of size". I still remember being referred to as "husky" as a young lad. The wounds linger to this day... things are better though. My two local department stores have "plus size" sections called Mighty Lord and Greatess.
  18. Actually, it does. Blacks are 13-14% of the population, yet they have 18% of jobs at the federal level. The first link is a few years old, but it said that 21% of black workers were public workers, as opposed to 16% of non black. Evidence of racism? I think not.
  19. Actually, the false claim is your earlier assertion that the Kenosha protests were due to the police killing of a black man. That is 100% untrue.
  20. Of course not. Don't straw man my argument. Vigilant citizens are a great way to supplement regular and well trained police. But neither is 100% the answer.
  21. According to these reports, blacks are OVER represented in the public sector. https://laborcenter.berkeley.edu/pdf/2011/blacks_public_sector11.pdf https://apnews.com/article/north-america-us-news-ap-top-news-mi-state-wire-detroit-55792de5cc4946b1844c028469389c9f
  22. They were part of the same group that were chasing Rittenhouse. How intimate they were, I have no idea. They were fellow travellers and rioters that night, that is for sure. Is it even that important? He chased and pointed a gun at RIttenhouse. Play stupid games and win stupid prizes.
  23. This is the usual word salad that is used to "explain" why these faux diversity measures are necessary. In actuality, most just seem to be a jobs creating program for various "consultants" and "experts" to sneak their snouts into the collective trough. Innate characteristics like race and gender have nothing to do with actual diversity. They do the exact opposite of what is claimed in the government quote, to "value individual differences". They in fact ERASE individual differences and instead seek to pigeonhole people into easily digestible categories. Plus, if it actually WAS a benefit to companies, they would do it without being hectored by some factotum who works for the government.
  24. Ah, our friend Gaige. Who was chasing Rittenhouse. Who was armed with a handgun. Who was pointing the handgun at Rittenhouse. Whose friend had just attacked Rittenhouse with a skateboard. That guy.
