so what is ruling the this thread....statistics or emotion?

haven’t looked past the first page of replies.

I can already see the usual indignant pollyannas (isn’t she at wideawakes)

God I love this forum, but emotive conservatism is hardly better than liberalism

there has never been a stronger emotion collectively shown in my lifetime than white guilt and the unbelievable willingness to basically submit themselves as a group to any notion that whiffs of racial redress

has it helped?.....no, it’s only made the original problem worse

when blacks regain free will regardless of mean IQ levels, then we will be getting somewhere

but continuing to place responsibility of their successes or failures with the white community is a guaranteed recipe for continuing failure as a group
