You can fix ignorant. You can't fix stupid.

I just checked those DOJ statistics. Shocking.

(Minor point: DOJ expressed the rapes committed by certain race groups as a percentage of total tapes, not as an integer. So the zero for white-on-black rapes could actually, due to rounding, include a handful of cases. (less than 10)). .

I'm surprised the Obama regime's DOJ still has these stats online. I hear they no longer publish them for current years.

Can we start documenting, maybe in a database, all the stupid boo-hoo-hoo kids are? They’ll be needing jobs soon...and I sure don’t want to hire any of them.

Can you imagine having them as a new hire?

“Boss, I think I deserve a raise, plus a company phone with unlimited minutes and data and internet service delivered to my house...oh, and an expense account. While we’re at it, my breakfasts and lunches should be provided too. And by the way, I’ve only been late and left early ten times this week so my performance is stellar. If you don’t give it to me...well, I’m going to upper management to tell them you looked funny at me this morning and I know it’s because I’m __________. You’ll be fired within a few days.”

Arggghhhh.

Wow, I wonder id dear Vanessa would be offended at all the crap I heard from the Mexicans on the construction sites? I have said it before and stand by it, the most racist people I have ever known were the immigrants from south of our border.

Rape is rape, but my comment below is about racial sex, so forgive me.

There was an African-American woman I served with in the military. She is a devout Christian, served with honor, and retired as a Lt Colonel. We ran into each other in the produce section of the super market about a year ago. I was hugged behind, with dreadlocks and kisses covering my head. She is one of the sweetest people I have ever known.

We were once deployed together, and we had LOTS of intimiate discussions about things. She shared with me the pain her heart concerning the behavior of her siblings (she was one child of 8).

Her outrage and hurt was obvious, in addition to when she discussed, in great honesty, the behavior and morals of American black women (and men) in general. And yes, she said African blacks and Caribbean blacks were quite different in their behavior and morals.

She described her husband as "blacker" than she was (I think she said her makeup would make her 1/8th "white or 1/4 white, I cannot remember). We discussed interracial marriage, and she said it was no secret among black men that they preferred white women, for a variety of reasons. Especially rich black men.

I asked her why. And she shook her head, and didn't want to talk about it.

“...the response is: “Oh, is it because I’m black?” Supposedly this response guilts the dumb white girl into accepting the date. So while it may not be sexist, a snub or a slight, it could be racist (which is worse than being Hitler).”

This happened all the time in the 60s-70s (UofI Champaign & Milwaukee).

Black guys would also line up outside the Jewish Community Center and indiscriminately *compliment* the girls as they entered/exited. They’d been told Jewish girls would date black guys.

If you think HR departments are bad now. Wait til these special little snowflakes become in charge. Then we really are doomed.
