Maybe the right guy got the polio cure because the other right guy wasn’t given the chance. It sounds to me like you believe the ends justifies the means.

“It’s like the Grammys having a “Christian music” category. Oh, so Christian music isn’t good enough to ever win a Grammy on its own, huh? “

Maybe we should ban Christian music for 100 years and see how good it is after that,.

Sounds to me like you think blacks can’t accomplish anything on their own.

Now when we have laws to stop them from from doing anything as we did until the 1960’s.

they weren’t that significant.

That sentence says more about you than anything else you’ve said. I challenge you to widen your knowledge. Here are just a micro-fraction of black contributions to American history:

Charles Drew (1904 - 1950) discovered techniques to store blood and developed blood banks.

Lewis Howard Latimer invented the carbon filament for light bulbs in 1881.

Alexander Miles of Duluth, Minnesota patented an electric elevator in 1887 with automatic doors that would close off the shaft way, thus making elevators safer.

Henry (”Hank”) Aaron (1934 - ) broke Babe Ruth’s home run record when he hit his 715th home run in 1974. He set a Major League record with 755 home runs in his career.

Crispus Attucks was one of more than 5,000 Blacks, who fought for independence during the American Revolutionary War up until it ended with British General Cornwallis’ surrender at Yorktown on October 19, 1781.

OK, I think we're finished. Achievements speak for themselves. Crispus Attuks? So why name himl in ANY history to the exclusion of Richard Henry Lee, or Nathaniel Greene (one of the greatest generals ever), or Benedict Arnold (very important traitor) or . . . or . . . or. You make my case. Crispus Attucks is not significant AT ALL except for his race.

Hank Aaron, on the other hand, makes my case perfectly, because he is included in ALL sports histories, not because he is black, but because he broke Ruth's record. Now . . . in fairness should we not exclude him in favor of Mark McGwire? An achievement is an achievement.

When you have to qualify achievements by skin color, you've already lost the argument of achievement at all.

And what "laws" were there preventing African invention for hundreds, if not thousands, of years? Why do you equate black achivement with American black achievement? What did free blacks do?

This is an argument you've lost, and I suspect you know it. Any time you have to qualify an achievement ("special olympics") you are stating flatly that the person cannot compete in real achievements, and that special categories must be created. Thomas Sowell and Walter Williams, by the way, who are black, utterly reject your premise.

It turns out the party was organized by a black comedian to promote his latest DVD, and he's been doing these parties for several years.

The Compton Cookout...NOT what the Media reported!

Thanks to Roger Hedgecock for exposing the truth about who organized the ‘Compton Cookout’....A Black man, an entertainer named Jiggaboo Jones, who is just a bit tired of the race baiting by the media and Jesse Jackson types with headlines such as this, “Outrage over ‘Compton Cookout’ at UCSD”.

See Mr. Jones explanation of all this here. His interview with Roger is here.

World Net Daily has a report today:
Organizer of ‘racist’ UC party was black

Last week a party – the Compton Cookout – was held off-campus near the University of California San Diego, and the firestorm it has created has been massive: Protest marches, teach-ins, protesters who walked out of the teach-ins and campus investigations have ensued. The administration for its part immediately placed blame on perpetrators they believed to be responsible – a so-called white fraternity, Pi Kappa Alpha.

Despite the denials by Pi Kappa Alpha that they were not behind the cookout, the blame remains on PKA and its white members.

Hedgecock: “ I am the only person on the national stage who has given Mr. Jones the chance to tell his side of the story, to claim responsibility for the Compton Cookout. Mr. Jones disclosed on my program that he attempted to contact UCSD administration and the local San Diego news media to claim the event and was rebuffed at every turn. Clearly, the administration, the San Diego Union Tribune and the PC Mafia have their perpetrators, just like Mike Nifong did at Duke.

While they may wish that the template remain, I am confronting the PC Mafia. On my nationally syndicated radio program last evening, I interviewed professor Daniel Widener, a professor of African-American studies and radicalism at UCSD, and he attempted to turn this cookout into a chance to score cheap political points. I refused to let him push his agenda.
Now, I want to give you the ability to hear the truth and decide for yourselves. Below is the unedited interview I conducted with Mr. Jones and professor Widener. Be warned: The language definitely is not politically correct and will certainly cause more than a few raised eyebrows. The truth is not always pretty – but it can be pretty funny.”

Roger Hedgecock is the longtime top-rated radio talk host in San Diego, Calif., on KOGO and, more recently, a nationally syndicated daily radio host heard already in 75+ markets and on XM Satellite.. Listeners may also tune in to his show at Radio America. He is the author of “The 2008 Conservative Voters Field Guide,” a series of books on 2008 issues. Guide No. 1-Immigration and No. 2-The War .

See, now you're grasping at straws. EVERY group has experienced difficulties, discrimination, even death (the Jews, whose economic status and "achievement" rapidly surpassed that of non-Jewish whites and blacks.) No one has been more persecuted or discriminated against.

The Chinese in Malaya had EVERY law against them, yet control most of that nation's wealth. Achievement overcomes adversity, NEVER celebrates it.

Malaysia, home to the “Ali Baba” company, where smart Chinese get past discriminatory business ownership laws by “lending” to local Malays to act as front “owners” for their businesses.

Yep. I didn’t say they didn’t cut corners. You can find similar stories about Jewish lenders; or affirmative action white owners of “black” companies.

So Affirmative Action shouldn’t negatively affect whites. OK.

Nor should it apply “affirmatively” to blacks. There is no such thing as true “affirmative action.” There is only “achievement nullification.”

Nothing personal, but I tried to warn you not jump to conclusions and make unwarranted assumptions...

I’m tired of your lies. Not only are you a bitter, petty fool with a huge chip on your shoulder, you’re also the worst kind of liberal - the liberal who pretends to be a conservative. Hating abortion and gays but being liberal on every other issue does not make you a conservative. Your support for affirmative action, higher taxes, and Obama are bad enough, but your delusional beliefs that our troops are evil violent honkies who are oppressing the poor brown A-rab folk are simply vile. I’ve had enough of you slandering America and calling us racist. The fact that you cannot condemn Jeremiah Wright with any passion is proof that you are no different from him.

Good FReepers who have been slandered with the “racist” label by this hateful witch, know this. Either the mods will come to their senses and ban this race-baiting leftist troll, or FR will slide into the cesspool of political correctness after repeated failures to ban a disruptor who hates white people and screams “racism” to silence all debate and dissent. Fascist witch. Oh, and you gotta love the “I can’t hate whitey! I’m married to a white man!” argument. Yeah, and O.J. was married to a white woman, too. Until he killed her, of course.

Here’s a little something to think about, if you’ll open your extremely narrow, racist mind for a moment:

What would happen if a black woman took a troop of black Girl Scouts to sell cookies in a lily-white neighborhood in Beverly Hills? Well, they’d probably sell a lot of cookies.

Now, what would happen if a white woman took a troop of white Girl Scouts to sell cookies in a black ghetto in Compton?

I rest my case.

Someone had to tell that witch brwnsuga off. I know many of you have wanted to after having to endure her slanderous, hateful comments and false accusations of racism. Since I don’t really post here anymore, I took it upon myself to be the one to do it. You’re welcome.

The politically correct world condemned Winston Churchill too. They called him a delusional warmonger, and worse. But eventually, they saw that he was right. Almost too late, but they saw.

I hope it’s not too late this time.
