Things aren't so flippin black and white Adam. Give me a break, of course we have free will, but things influence that. And many many many people are open to influence, in fact most of your traits and characteristics are no doubt results of your socialization process (ie your surroundings), so don't feed us that bull sh*t about free will overriding everything.Originally posted by Adam
Someone mentioned something about "you should study psychology", as though such a statement negates the fact that we have free will. In case you're interested, I did study some psychology, and never found anything in it which negates free will, apart from physical imposition on another or death. The more you allow your situation to dictate your choices, the weaker your will; the more you are guided by your own standards and ideals, the stronger your will.
There is no reason why someone who grows up in a poor, high-population-density area must wake up one day and say "Bloody hell, I'm poor! I'd better go sell drugs!" There is no reason why such a person must suddenly say "My neighbour has a gun, I'd better go sell drugs!" We all have the choice. Many, unfortunately, choose the easiest path to immediate gratification, rather than considering any larger perspective. That is their choice.
So what are you saying? That social setting isn't a factor, but age is a qualifier as an excuse? who's full of bullsh*t now?
And then you go on to say that the DRUGS THEMSELVES had something to do with the influencing.Uhhh.. yeah! When you are a 16 year old who yourself is under the influence of drugs -and at that age your more proned to be influenced by your surroundings. Im not talking about minors or anyone incapable of making rash decisions. Im talking about adults who sell drugs and cry that they its not fair that they are in jail and noone else is. Get it?

What I was getting at is going overboard on crusade against racism and political correctness will harm more than hurt. The reason is the same as raising an infant industry in a country. You protect them in the beginning but you have to slowly remove the protection or they never grow. They have to get used to and make progress in the environment of racism instead of saying they will never make any progress until racism is removed altogether. The biggest reason I support reparation of slavery is that after you pay them off, you can call it "even". There will one less excuse.
Well, the interesting thing is people are waiting for 2nd generation Asian immigrants to fall the same level as Whites, but that is not happening. According the latest SAT statistics I saw, Asians not only maintain their lead in math, they are closing the gap in English.
That is because the mentality in US is "No kids will fall behind". Therefore all kids fall behind. The classes are taught at a speed that even the dumbest kids can catch up. In Asia, kids are seperated into different classes according to their test scores. Classes with smarter kids go at a faster speed. It doesn't happen until junior high though. In US that will never happen, because what you will see is mostly Asians and Jews in highest level, Whites next and then blacks and hispanics on the bottom. Schools will appear to be segregated by race. Asian education is better simply because the classes go at a faster pace basically. One lesson we learn from them is that the system is far more important than the funding. In US we put more money per student than any country in the world, but test scores are mediocre.
Well, I am not sure If I agree with your theory on the sex part. China is poor, but the Chinese are one of the most sexually deprived country in the world A married couple in US have sex over 100 times per year, France is about 120+, China is about 60+ and Japan is 40+. Japan is the most sexually deprived country in the world
well geeze, look how you phrased that. As if 'blacks' aren't even people to be given respect to, but rather something that can only be distinguised by color. The LEAST you could have done is say black PEOPLE (which you'll notice is what you did for 'whites').Yes, absolutely true Joeman. As in high school, I hate it how some blacks, on every little thing a white person does, they call it racist and use it to their advantage. Simply put, I do not like people that feed on sympathy too much. Yes there are educated blacks out there that know better, but it is the weak-minded and the uneducated are the ones that get in trouble and cause the trouble. They simply do not know better.

Words mean everything, and they tell me you're a bigot. Maybe pay more attention to how you say things from now on.

You can talk all the trash you want about how in 'real' life your some sort of non racist saint, but your words speak volumes.
I don't care if your a fkn blue ghandi, you refered to millions of people with the word 'blacks'. Thats stupid shit, and I'm not gonna watch you do it without raising my hand and calling you out.
"Those yellows always act so fkn tough, they are short p*ssy pieces of sh*t"
You like that? And you can say you don't care cause its the internet and im some as5hole, but if I said that to your face youd probably want to kick my ass.
Let me just demonstrate to you why I feel you are talking shit and nothing else.Usually with most of my black friends (that is the way I call them, it goes as this; blacks, asians, whites, and amerasian (half-asian, half-white) That is how you classfiy them from where I am from. And they have pride in that. But you seem sooo pissed about it, you simply do not understand.
...how some blacks, on every little thing a white person does...

You referred to black PEOPLE as 'blacks', but white PEOPLE as 'white people'. (small but very important difference)
That language is terribly destructive IMO, and I feel its my moral obligation to call you out.
I don't want to be on a high horse or anything, I'm guilty of the occasional prejudice just like everyone else. But in something like a message board where you think before you speak I feel you should utilize that oportunity...and THINK.

Note that those are USA figures, a country where most people are white. The figures are probably the opposite in South Africa, or any other country where whites are the minority.Originally posted by dkb218

Pretty startling numbers if you as me. maybe we should look in our own backyards before we start quoting from KKK web sites {or did any of you bother to look at where this idiot got his numbers from}.
