You are right they are not helping the Blacks by making it easy for them they are hurting them and keeping them as slaves to the system. Affirmative action is the worst thing for them and so is Ebonics. They need to fail and then learn how to lead themselves or they will for ever be followers.

You do know were in an illegal war.
If it is lets not forget that the brave ones fighting are not the ones who started and they are only doing what is required for us to have the freedom to have this conversation.And the military has not brainwashed me but instilled things in me like discipline and the love of Country
Here we go again. Did Iraq ever attack America? No. The 9/11 hijackers were Saudi not Afghan and were trained in the US flight school, by the same us military who instilled in you a love for your country. Wake up they/you are not fighting for our freedom. You are fighting for the elite oil Barron's and bankers. Our freedoms are being taken daily because of the illegal war from the patriot act to warrantless wiretapping, email hacking, airport bodyscanners, no fly lists, need I continue.
If we are ever invaded I will gladly take up arms against a real enemy but we haven't had a real war since WWII, and you spitting propaganda isn't convincing anyone except those already indoctrinated into these lies.

You know as much as most of what you said infuriates me and makes me sick to my stomach....
Now as to the broken down family structure etc. that all goes back to slavery.
And the same tired arguement about blacks selling their anccestors into
slavery doesn't wash. For one that was an extremely small percentage. And if you knew African history you'd understand that it was common for tribes to trade people as indentured servents for a price. They had no concept of true slavery...
Now just imagine for a minute if you were placed on a boat with a bunch
of people you didn't know and couldn't understand eachother and the only thingyou had in common was the color of your skin. By the time you got to America 50% of the people had died some you may have just got to know as you...

Mabye if you ever fought for anything, mabye if you ever shed blood far away from home, mabye if you ever watched your countrymen die, mabye then you would respect us retired and current military. You will never do any of the above though, not because you disagree with this or any war, but because of the fact that you and the rest like you are cowards. Cowards who hate the country that gives you the right to disagree.
I will leave you with this; if you hate this great country so much by all means please leave. Please run off to socialist Europe or communist China, we will not miss you.

Sadly, much like maturity, many of us never grow up to be Republicans.
The military makes men and women, out of boys and girls. It also makes Republicans out of Democrats. The military isn't for the faint of heart, nor the weak of mind.
... 'on your own' is key to maturity and conservatism.
Dependency is slavery.
