Breitbart's Big Government ^ | October 8, 2014 | Tony Lee

Posted on 10/08/2014 11:01:56 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Nearly six in ten black Americans (59 percent) believe that there would already be a cure for the deadly Ebola virus had it originated in Europe or America.

A YouGov/Economist poll also found that 62 percent of Americans think "more would have been done" to combat Ebola had it not originated in West Africa. Forty-two percent of Americans also believe there would be a cure had the virus originated in Europe or the U.S. while 23 percent do not think that would be the case....

> I thought all the significant scientific discoveries were made by black people, and the white people just stole their ideas and took the credit.

Don’t see much io them on the African plains where they have lived in cow dung huts and walked 10 miles to get water for thousands of years (many say 10’s of thousands of years) because it never occurred to them to dig wells...

I always hit them with this intellectual masterpiece and you can see them vaporlock because they always seem to believe they are the most intelligent race.

White folks was [sic] in caves while we were building empires…. We taught philosophy and astrology and mathematics before Socrates and those Greek homos ever got around to it. Rev. Al Sharpton, Kean College (1994)

It's funny they were so far advanced they did not study astronomy but decided astrology/horoscopes was more important.

Find your own vaccine, brainiacs.

Majority of blacks will believe any racist proposition, because the majority of blacks are racist.

And then, there's the politically incorrect book, "The Bell Curve."

I can see it now, remembering an old DRISTAN commercial from 1960.

Woman (smiling) at a crowded bowling alley:
“Would you believe it? I have EBOLA!
But I’ve been taking that new miracle ingredient Zmapp!”

I am beginning to think that “Bush’s fault” really meant “Whitey’s fault.”

People have come down with full blown Ebola, one step from death, and recovered with nothing more than oral fluids with electrolytes. These aren’t common cases, but the science supports that the antiviral drugs like Zmapp give a person more time to fight off the disease with their own immune systems.

I’m a white conservative and even I think this is true. Of course we’d put our resources into something that effects us directly.

(Of course, I’m curious if there’s going to be a mad rush to cure *any* of the outbreaks that we’re being hit with. I’m not holding my breath. Innovation seems to be something that we’ve lost.)

AIDS and Ebola were transferred by EATING bush animals.

And, yes. It could happen here. I’ve seen what people in Louisiana eat on a regular basis. (Don’t get cocky! lol!)

I’ve never owned any slaves.

I owe them nothing.

In fact I’d say that they owe me.

Were the animals eaten raw? If not, how did the virus survive cooking.

This “eating infected animals” just doesn’t cut it.

It’s not the eating of the animals. It’s the butchering that spreads it.

Not too many people eating monkey meat in Europe or the US.

It's not just eating monkey meat. I used to think that's what they meant by "bushmeat".

Then I did some research.

It's far worse than that. "Bushmeat" means any kind of animal, and they're not particularly particular about whether they kill it, or just find it dead in the bush. Either way it goes on the grill. It's the difference between squirrel hunting, and picking up dead squirrels (and possums, and 'coons, and groundhogs, and can't-identify-it) off the side of the road.

Nearly 6 out of ten blacks think its white mans fault there is no cure... no blacks want to personally spend their lives in study and sacrifice to find the cure themselves and bypass whitey
