You can lead a horse to water, but you can't force them to drink. The social pressure that many blacks face for m their own community to remain or act ignorant is very powerful.
That is why I go to Walmart at 7:00 AM. The IQ of the clientele declines over the course of the day.
Indeed.It's supernatural.
........AND THEY BREED AND VOTE!
Allen West. Ben Carson. I’ll bet they can read cursive.
So, Rachel is being subjected to the same standards as earlier Blacks...I thought she had every opportunity to get educated and become literate. her failure to do so should be looked upon and a problem with their credibility. Her inability to articulate well is directly correlated with her failure to become educated despite it being free, accessible, and the law.
Let’s keep it simple.
She lied but then she was honest about lying. She’s still a liar and not credible.
Nothing else counts.
How did they treat the white beauty pageant contestant, Ms. Prejean?
Yep agreed. When I go to wal mart, it is usually after 11 pm or so, so it’s mostly empty.
Sorry you racist pos... but I will believe my lying eyes and ears this time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She lied but then she was honest about lying. Shes still a liar and not credible.

Which is precisely why Jeantel's defenders try to make this about race; it's precisely why they try to make this an issue of how she testified, not what. Manner over content; creed over credibility.
The irony is that by arguing for Ms. Jeantel to be given extra consideration for her, ahem, cultural style, her defenders are surrendering the very moral high ground they claim to defend: by arguing that the defense attorneys are not supposed to treat her like any other witness, but instead (apparently) use kid gloves, they are revealing their own racist attitudes.
Why shouldn't Ms. Jeantel be rung through the wringer?
Funny, I thought that a defense attorney could get disbarred for not pursuing the most vigorous defense possible for a client? I thought a defense attorney's exclusive allegiance was to the defendant, not to the trumped-up ruffled feathers of the easily offended.
I ask again, why shouldn't Ms. Jeantel be rung through the wringer?
This ain't 19th-Century Mississippi. It's a 21st-Century murder trial. And as others have pointed out, Ms. Jeantel has had all sorts of opportunities for acquiring an education as well as a basic ability to communicate. She's 19-freaking years old. There are other 19-year-old Americans standing watch, on patrol, and dodging bullets for crying out loud. I'm supposed to have sympathy for a voter who is still a junior in high school because she can't manage a few tough questions??!!!
As you concisely stated, Right Wing Assault, Ms. Jeantel is just not credible. Nothing else matters.
All the psuedo-intellectual, sympathy-plucking word-play in the world can't change that simple fact.
Really? Next time my old butt types an obviously silly sentence I will be sure to add the ‘joke’ tag for ya. Okay, back to the RLB!
When the truth is not on your side, use the race card.
Nice strawman set-up attempt-REJECTED.
Have you bothered to follow the facts of this case at all?
Are you watching the trial?
Or are you just watching the MSM and deciding you know all about what is happening here?
