Why is it that there are no little towns where the entire population is black people? I live in a little town where the entire population is white.

Also, why is it that when you get a bunch of poor black people together, crime goes up dramatically, but when you get a bunch of poor white people together, they don't commit crimes? In fact, they tend to band together for the good of the group. Why is this? Why is it that the poor black sections of major cities are extrremely dangerous while the poor white sections of major cities are not?

I'm doing a project where I have to create a piece of propaganda to convince someone to do something. I am planning to show people giving/donating to homeless people. I have come up with two slogans, but I don't know which one to use.

Good to Give
or
Good People Give

I've heard everything from put him out to help him beat his addiction. I'm at a point where I just can't take any more of this. He lies, he steals, and he doesn't respect the house or me.He says his addiction has nothing to do with me. He puts down the people who want to help him and the people who don't care about him, he holds way up high on this pedestal. What should I do?

I am a white girl and I don't think i'm better than any race, but I like being white. I am not by any means a racist but I am getting tired of the reverse-descrimination going on in today's society. In general, it is acceptable to make fun of white people in the media which i can appreciate if it is funny, but the minute someone mentions "the n word" the joke is over and there is suddenly a major controversy. Maybe my ancestors have done horrible things but i have never enslaved anyone or stolen anyone's land. Moreover, blacks are enslaving blacks in some parts of Africa even today. my sister just left for college and her black friend with worse grades and fewer extra-curriculars got into a better school that they both applied for. He was obviously never a slave. She could have gotten in for free if she were native-american. I know the colleges are trying to have a fair number of minorities, but when did equality become synonymous with undeniable racism? Can anyone explain this to me?

I'm looking for serious answers here. Nothing along the lines of "duh" or "of course".

I'm just wondering, because I haven't been able to find a woman who thinks that it's important for a man to live his life with integrity. Most women that I know think that it's great when a man is unfaithful, lazy, bullying, and dishonest in general. They view him as being a "bad boy" who has "edge" and is a "challenge".

On the other hand, a man who is confident, mentally and physically healthy, a community leader, intelligent, romantic, honest, and would be a devoted husband and father, is seen as "boring" and "too nice".

Why is this? Do these women have low self-esteem and think that they don't deserve better . . . or, do men of integrity have to start being losers in order for women to appreciate them?

I look forward to your intelligent and well-thought-out answers.

I had the Essure procedure done a few months ago and love it and highly recommend it. I am married and we have both never wanted children but there are some people that comment on here that it is "Gods will for us all to have children" and that "children are a blessing"..bull. I know everyone was raised to believe one way or another but not everyone enjoys the company of children or has any desire to have them so when someone states they have had their tubes tied, don't spout off at the mouth when you don't know them or their circumstances. To each his own, if you want 10 kids fine, if you want none then fine but don't judge those of us that do not want children. We were put here for other reasons otherwise everyone would want them.

Lindsay's Publicist is quoted as saying on her behalf, "She's not ready to quit drinking tomorrow." That's a new twist on the age old adage of, "I'm going to quit drinking tomorrow." Hell ladies wake up, every recovering alcoholic knows it's today that we don't drink because we don't know what tomorrow will bring. It's one day at a time and that day is today. One other note for Lindsay's Publicist, It's call Alcoholics Anonymous for two reasons; 1) It's for alcoholics that have a desire to quit drinking and 2) It's Anonymous, we don't advertise who we are outside the rooms of AA. That's why for little Miss Lindsay that it feels so safe.

Any comments ??
