He was, in fact, praising groups of people based upon their skills. It's true that most whites are adept at raising capital. And that Hispanics make good use of space with people. And blacks are great and lively singers.
It was only "racist" and "stereotypical" to the PC people.
Well said. And quite true.
Stop making excuses ... I'm sorry but they were ignorant comments. I don't care who made them or at what time.
Most whites are adapt at raising capital? Huh? Are you serious? Do you have any numbers and/or links to back that up? Remove it to a per capita basis and let us know.
Hispanics are better at making good use of space? Are you saying that Europeans coming to America didn't make good use of their space in the early 1900's? How about modern day Europe? Africa? What about dense Middle Eastern cities? Sao Paulo? Japan? China? Columbia?
Blacks are great and lively singers? Are they named Sambo in that world too? Tell me, do they all have a good jump shot or are they better off the cross-over? Chicken or ribs for dinner? That's insane ...
Reggie may have had good intentions, but his communication of those ideas was extremely poor. The arrogance not to admit he made a mistake and for those to justify his comments, leaves a person to only shake their heads.
It mostly just shows his inability to see people as individuals and the positive attributes they bring to day-to-day life. Everyone's a cog in a machine ...
