Blacks are already favored by the government, colleges, and employers due to policies such as affirmative action and welfare. When are they going to realize that, no, we shouldn't pay their welfare because they spent their food money on Gucci shoes.

I don't see the Mexicans complaining about their plight when they are FAR more disadvantaged. I don't see the Japanese complaining about the internment camps from WWII still. They all work hard for their money. Mexicans, despite working two jobs, are often still poorer than blacks that were born in the U.S. I don't hear complaints from them about oppression, just immigration.

They just need to suck it up, work hard, stop buying rims, grills, etc., and stop glorifying drugs, murder, and gangstas. Don't ya think?

Answer 1

Crap just burnt myself with coffee.
Lawyer!!

Point is...everyone wants something for nothing,they just go about it differently.

Answer 2

You should not need to be told that education and working hard will get you somehwhere in life. Its pure common sense. I would not be inclined to believe a persone if he told me that I work at McDonalds because the system is holding me down and not because I lack an education. How much intelligence do yo really need to know that that was crap?

The old question here: who is the more foolish, the fool or the fool who follows?

Not everyone wants something for nothing. Truth is, Asians are perhaps the hardest and most efficient working people.

Answer 3

Complaining and aching are two different terms. Of course someone that benefited and continues to do so from the INJUSTICES AMERICA HEAPED UPON AFRICAN SLAVES AND THEIR DESCENDANTS would certainly utter anything to enhance their avariciousness. All humans ache for recognition of their positive achievements. This country as you know was made rich and powerful through the BLOOD,SWEAT AND TEARS of African slaves and their descendants. Immigrants came to this country in the late 19th century because of this reason. These same people were given jobs before the African Americans were and they were born here! There again hurting their social economic status. Nothing has changed since the first time reparations was asked for... only the words.

Answer 4

First of all, ALL people buy clothing, regardless of their social position. Another thing, they could be buying name brand clothing at an Outlet Store. You've heard of those, haven't you? Next, if they are purchasing rims, grills, etc, then more than likely THEY AREN'T ON WELFARE MORON!!! The Welfare laws are more strict than it use to be.

As far as the Japanese not complaining about WWII, they won't because THEY RECEIVED REPARATIONS FOR BEING IN CONCENTRATION CAMPS!!!!

There are African-American people on Welfare, but as far as numbers go, there are MORE CAUCASIANS ON WELFARE!!!! I also see nothing as far as businesses in their neighborhood. When there are, THEY ARE OWNED BY OTHER CULTURES. Not many Blacks get loans to open businesses.

Some of the women should be happy about Affirmative Action, because it PROTECTS ALL MINORITIES, INCLUDING WOMEN!!! The Supreme Court also stopped the use of Affirmative Action as A QUOTA BASIS!!! Study the law before you come on here with fiction!

Take your racist statements elsewhere, because you are stereotyping...

Answer 5

Because self-serving promoters of racism such as the likes of
Jesse Jackson & Al Sharpton are leading efforts to extort money
from the liberals in Govt.

Answer 6

What I think??? well this topic has been covered if it's the plight of the black, if it's the Mexican illegals enough has been said. Didn't I see Mexicans demonstrating "Illegal Immigrants?"

Answer 7

I believe we paid reparations to the Japanese that were in internment camps during the war. I do agree that Affirmative action is now just a program that promotes discrimination and it needs to go away. We cannot lump all black people into one peg, that is not fair.

Answer 8

Well, I think all poor people can use a little compassion and help
but what I want to know
about reparations
is:

If someone is half black and half white, does that mean they have to pay themselves reparations?

Answer 9

They have been conditioned to see them selfs as victims by the liberal Democrats and their so called leaders. Many blacks are finally seeing this for what it is and are rising above it but 40 yrs of this victim conditioning takes time to remove.

Answer 10

well when the africans,and the muslims, democrats(rats),(it was democrats(rats)that did not want to end slavery) pay reparations we can talk,about are nation as a hole doing the same.

Answer 11

because they have leaders like jackson, sharpton, clinton, kerry, and kennedy telling them they are not smart enough to come in out of the rain (or hurricane). this is how the lib/dems keep power. they need a class to keep down so they can continue to keep power and fight their war on poverty, ahem. they have to have them so they can raise taxes, on us, so they can redistribute our wealth to all the social welfare programs. the dems need a victim class.

i agree with what you said in your last paragraph. totally true for so many.
