I’ve noticed something.

If you’re in the business of persuading people to part with more taxpayer dollars, you can state a fact like “the family structure of lower class Negroes is highly unstable, and in many urban centers is approaching complete breakdown” and get away with it. Might even get praise as a ‘Vocal Advocate.”

If you make the same statement but are not advocating tossing taxpayer dollars at the problem, you are just a racist.

Interesting. Same statement, same fact. But different reaction to the messenger.

That’s actually quite a deep statement.

Interesting observation on your part, and have to say it rings true. Minorities and those who’ve grown up in lower socio-economic classes do tend to view the Government as the source of power and wealth, so stating a problem without citing the Government as being the source of the “cure” would ring the racism bell.
