It's shocking that half of the country isn't walking around with black eyes and fat lips.
Im so happy that I can sleep peacefully at night because I’m white! Darwinism FTW! /s
Naps are racist?
Yawn....I’m gonna have to sleep on that one.
That's quite an assumption to make.
Oh, for Pete's sake! Maybe all that black-on-black violence has them on edge.
DANG!
“Its uncomfortable for them to sleep because they are thinking back over mistreatment, thinking back over maltreatment, thinking back over bias they experienced, Beatty Moody told National Journal.”
And we whites who all go back to generations of wealth and ease are sleeping just fine???? /s
It never ends in our “color-blind” society.
.
Interesting. My wife and I always like getting our “around town chores” such as filling up gas, grocery store, Sams/Costco shopping done from 0900-1100 because the feral criminal crackhead-type elements here in Little Rock aren’t even awake and around until noon.
What a load of psychobabble. Sleep apnea also affects overweight people more than those who are not. Did the study cross-screen for overweight subjects in addition to race? If the black participants were heavier, than it is likely that their quality of sleep was not as good as the whites’.
That's quite an assumption to make.
And Global Warming.
Obviously Ben Carson was never a part of these studies. He seems to sleep just fine where ever he is.
A true "scientist" would see the opportunity to prove the theory, a liberal would ignore it.
Well, that was quick! Got a question about something... pop up the racism explanation.
“Oh, for Pete’s sake! Maybe all that black-on-black violence has them on edge. “
If I were a young black male in da hood, I wouldn’t sleep well either.
As a Christian, I dream of Rome feeding Christians to lions and therefore blame Italians when I am tired at the office. Give me money!
Yeah, well our family loses sleep when we hear of black on white crime such as:
News anchor raped and murdered locally
Local murders and
...and ...
they just LOVE to shoot at our cops
Yeah.....lots of sleep lost..and that's not including our local terrorism story:
Little Rock Army recruit murdered by black muslim Carlos Bledsoe
Government mandated drugs for whites will rectify this soon.
Because if researchers acknowledge that there are real racial differences, that would be racist.
The Liberal creed is that racial differences are exclusively limited to skin color, and that there CANNOT ever be any kind of mental differences.
Sleep apnea is associated with overweight, is it not? Is that possibly a factor in accounting for the difference? I have no idea whether it is, but at least it's a falsifiable hypothesis where verifiable measurements can be taken. As opposed to, you know, thoughts of bias (detected how and defined by whom?) experienced in someone's dreams causing wakefulness (how?) . . .
In short, can anyone detect the presence of the scientific method in any of the investigators' speculations? I didn't think so.
And yet I can detect the scale of the budget, and hazard a hypothesiseasily proved or disprovedat how the investigative team was chosen.
Everyday Discrimination Prospectively Predicts Inflammation across 7-Years in Racially Diverse Midlife Women: Study of Women's Health across the Nation
"Self-reported discrimination has emerged as a predictor of negative psychological and physical health outcomes across racial/ethnic groups. The goals of this study was to determine whether C-reactive protein (CRP), a marker of inflammation and risk factor for future cardiovascular disease (CVD) was independently predicted by everyday discrimination or whether race or body mass index (BMI) modified this association over a 7-year period among 2,490 women from racially diverse backgrounds"
Golly! I think she's got an agenda. I take it there's big money in Baltimore academia for researchers performing studies where racism is a component. Add 'women' and 'healthcare' into the mix and it's an academia gravy train.
