*******And once again, you have no explanation why you think race is a significant distinction.
******
****** Race delineates cultural heritage ... example, President Obama remarking, "I could have been Trayvon 35 years ago. Was Obama raised in the same geographic region as Martin? Is he the product of the same economic bracket? No.?
****** Why does Obama believe race is a significant distinction?
*****
*****Hey,,,that's good! I could have just said that! Damn!
****
****Yes, you could have. It doesn't answer the question, and it's a pretty stupid point, so it would sound as natural coming from you as from the troll you're responding to.
****
****Can you answer the question, why, regarding crime statistics, do you think that race is more important than economic status?
****
****
*** Regarding crime statistics, the leading killer of young black men is young black men.
**
**
**The leading killer of white men is white men.
*
* Negative. It is cancer.
**
You may be right. I was thinking of the murder statistics.
How are you defining "young?" and what source are you using for your claim?
*** Regarding crime statistics, on the national average, more black men are incarcerated than any other race, and when they are their sentence is generally stiffer than those given to a one of another race with a very similar, if not identical charge. American justice is certainly not color blind!
**
**
**So you're saying that race is a significant distinction because it's a significant distinction?
*
* How did you get that? Surely you're not that obtuse.
* I'll try one more time :
*
**Race is a significant distinction because it delineates cultural heritage. Cultural heritage determines in large thought patterns, beliefs, and attitudes. Beliefs and attitude determines specific behavior patterns. This is why race is a significant distinction in human behavior.
*
Then you're saying blacks are culturally predisposed to be criminals?
**
*** That those with impoverished socio-economic conditions commit more crimes, per capita, and are more frequently incarcerated only stands to reason, and is a world wide dilemma.
*** Poverty, my friend, is a world wide dilemma.
*** For poverty breeds desperation.
*** Desperation breeds desperate acts.
*** Desperate acts breeds flawlessness.
*** Lawlessness breeds arrest,
*** And, because the poor cannot afford competent representation in court,
*** Arrests breed incarceration.
*** And this injustice is world wide, and has existed longer than civilisation itself.
*** Linear thinking.
*** My advice to you Mr. Monk, is to stop thinking in circles.
*** There's the answer you've asked for. Too bad it's not the answer you wanted,
*** But it's the answer, and it's the truth.
***
***
**
**It's neither.
