Because their so tall and if they try to dive they
will slam into the bottom pool. Just kidding.
Hey it's Sunday morning and I run out of things
to say, so that's why I came up with this dumb
joke. Besides I've been in the house since I
got off work yesterday that's why I'm a little
koo koo.

well, from what I know, as a non swimming black person. Black people can dive, it's just that many don't care about swimming like that, we have other more important things on our minds besides jumping off some high plank into a giant tub of water. Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of Black people who like to swim, but from my perspective, those that don't swim simply chose not to. It's not a black thing...it's a "why the f*** do I want to get on a plank to jump *** first into some water that people probably pissed in?" thing

So not true. There's a black guy on the diving team for a school my school swims with. He's good.

I easily have study the e book, would not that be a terrible aspect to take position? To lose the information, heritage, and targets of our previous and destiny as in the e book? I shudder! i imagine your Black Dove is a surprising representation of the e book. each little thing is lost, as a results of uninformed, uneducated, stupidity of the lawmakers of the e book, and those which couldn't or would not face as a lot as replace those regulations. I loved interpreting this. thanks you for sharing.

Me being black as you can see, we didn't grow up around lakes,beaches or olympic sizes swimming pools in our back yards. Swimming is just another one of those things white people take for granted that blacks in most inner cities see as a once while privilege.

This is of course not true. But I can't even see the slightest hint where the rumour would come from either.

lol silly question. its not the fact that BLACK people cant dive
its the fact taht PEOPLE dont have the training to do a proper dive.
many whites, asians, mexican, etc etc cant dive or even float on water....
