“How many blacks were sold into slavery by their very own black race? How many billions more dollars are we going to spend on people that simply do not want to help themselves (black and white).”

Not to mention half a million dead and a couple million maimed in the civil war...that oughta buy a lot of reparations...and the revisionist horseshit aside, economics isn’t the only thing that put those boys in the ground...

I guess that you missed this, but doesn’t everyone have an opportunity to get an education and a good job? For some it is just to much to ask, but for others it can be done, it just ain’t easy. There are millions of black guys that have made it. Being a victim is the easy choice.

AFter the Holocaust, many Jews had nothing but the rags on their backs and what was in their head. Now after so many years many are living like kings and many of them build new lives with nothing, citizens of nowhere.

After two hundred years and sixty years of welfare, benefits, and scholarships exclusively for them, where are they?

What was that line I read somewhere, All Men are Created Equal? Obviously not in Obamaland.

It ain't discrimination if a Liberal does it.

I’m sure the slaves weren’t asked if they wanted to come to America. I don’t recall hearing anybody asking us if we wanted to financially support a criminal class of black people who refuse to get educated and go to work.

That does it... unfair comparison

You are right , it really shows drive, spirit and recognizing the power of education.

The blacks have had a great opportunity to be equal but they prefer dropping out of school (it’s a white mans thing) , graduating to a criminal life and being afri americans. Some of these blacks have been here over two hundred years and accomplihed nothing other than jail time, three wives and fourteen children

Needless to say there are exceptions and they have done very well but still, the majority will ridicule them for being “white”.

The Jew? He readily acknowledges the best investment and as such invests heavily in tomorrows generation. His child? Gets education from day one. They are never left to grow like weeds or creatures of the field.

Barack Obama Sr. was a Luo, a black African tribe not known to mix with Arab traders on the coast.

Then why was 0bama Muslim in his younger days, and why are his siblings Muslim?

I can’t stand when Black leaders in control think they have to save the world versus saving themselves first.

This nut apparently admires Zim's Robert Mugabe who has murdered millions of his people because he certainly has been thinking about himself first. Also, Shabazz contradicts himself when he insists that the US should 'save Africa' from its own problems, of course with handouts and 'reparations'. We've been playing that game for trillions of dollars and it's only made things worse for blacks. Then, Shabazz is full of feces whenever he asserts that blacks have 'built America'. Person for person, they have done a lot less than non-black people to build America.

Because the Luo are Muslims. The majority of the world’s Muslims are NOT Arab.

Then why did the Luo adopt the Arab religion? The fact that they are Muslim in Africa pretty much necessitates interactions with Arabs in Africa.

Like the Bangladeshis, the Persians, and the Javanese, they CONVERTED. That does not make ANY of these people ETHNICALLY and CULTURALLY Arab. Mohammed Ali converted to Islam, but that did not make him an Arab, anymore than my converting to Buddhism (highly unlikely) would make me Tibetan.

Arabs are an ethnic group. Islam is a religion. The two are not one and the same. Capice?

Arabs are an ethnic group. Islam is a religion. The two are not one and the same.

And about 99% of Arabs are Muslims. And given the Arab genesis of Islam, my term 'Arab religion'. I perhaps wrongly believed that anybody with a normal intelligence would not assume that I was calling all Muslims Arabs.

My point is that nobody has shown that the Luo have had nothing to do with the Arab slave trade. Unless you can provide specific cites to back up something to the contrary, you appear to me not to contest this.

$15T to eliminate poverty since the Great Society (thanks LBJ) and what have we gotten? More out of wedlock births, higher crime and more government dependency than ever. What a brilliant plan. Trust me, if there is a revolution and we throw the Kenyan out of office, the blacks will burn every city to the ground. Good population control plan though.

I agree with Kim du Toit’s essay, “Let Africa Sink”
