Then you are blamed because blacks - who are less intelligent - are given preferences in education over white or asian children who merit the 'seats'. You are supposedly 'privileged' or somesuch due to the fact that you worked hard to achieve something and have a higher IQ.

Ummmm...I've got black friends and co-workers....that are very intelligent. Professionals!! Doctors, Physical Therapists, Nurses....Rad Techs..etc...etc...

You need to re-think that comment

[technically right]

Sorry Ben, but I think I’ll turn it over to Bushmaster and pray for a steady aim for those 300 meter shots.

Most importantly, for every MRAP deployed against the 2nd Amendment there would have been thousands of less defended voters that called for its deployment. If the people who voted to send the MRAP against you are no longer around, the MRAP will just go home.

And what happens when the KKK rises up again?

It's not your grandfather's KKK.

The jackboots manning those vehicles will not be locals. The Butchers of Beijing learned that the hard way with the famous photo of the guy blocking the tank at Tianenmen Square. The guy driving it was a local. They came back with the tanks manned by farm boys from distant provinces and they mowed anybody down who stood in their way.

Won't be locals manning the MRAPS. They'll be from Guatemala and South Central LA and they won't give a rat's behind.

True that, I too have met some wonderful black people who did not have that chip on their shoulders.

On a statistical basis, however, blacks as a race are disadvantaged in a Gaussian distribution kind of way. Many individuals rise above the vengeant tide of mediocrity and are truly wonderful human beings. Sadly, they are the true minority.

Reparations?

How about the $20 trillion the Great Society has already cost us? Can we count that on the payments too?

And what happens when the KKK rises up again?

It is now called the Progressive Caucus. It was and remains an offshoot of the Democratic Party.

They will have a harder time pulling that on Americans than Americans/Russians/British had trying it in Afghanistan.

Well, I'll admit I'm pissed.

I'm not pissed. I am resolved. Cold. Calculating. Preparations have been made. No hate. No rage. Just swift retribution. Should be 'nuff said.

[Osage Orange]

Fair enough...

Watch the broad brush.

That's all I ask....

If it comes to jackboots manning armored vehicles, one would be foolish to attack them when they come looking for a fight.

Instead, wait. And wait. And wait. At some point, they have to come out of that MRAP. They will be tired. Not itching for a fight anymore. Just wanting to go home. They will want to be anywhere but inside that MRAP - they wanted a fight. They wanted to hurt people. Not sit in a cramped, smelly MRAP without food or water. Make them stay in it. Don't fight them while they're in it. At some point they have to come out.

Make sure they don't go home.

Of course, if it comes to that...

That will be the first mission of Obola’s domestic army.

"Unintended Consequences". A good read.

Oh yea ... I am done with it ... everyone I know is done with it ... Black fatigue has reached maximum levels, and one day soon they are going to push that one last millimeter, and all hell is going to break lose.

We’re all carrying the genes that got us here and some of those genes carry a very basic survival instinct that has allowed us to survive thus far.

Unfortunately, your post is probably prophetic. I do wonder, however, why the gene that governed "common sense" seems not to have survived.

" I do wonder, however, why the gene that governed "common sense" seems not to have survived."

Years ago, when I worked in West Africa, my interpreter, a Mr. Dau, was, hands down, the most intelligent man I have ever known. He had graduated from several European universities, and could discuss anything you cared to discuss in any of five European languages. One day, in one of our many discussions, he so astounded me with his summation that I blurted out, "Mr. Dau, in my over fifty years living in the United States, I've never met an American black man with your level of intelligence.

In response, Mr. Dau replied with the question, "Why do you think we sold them to you?"
