lisa - Asians and math would be because the asian cultures put high value on education and excelling in their careers. Some cultures scorn those who try to excel in their education and call them traitors to their culture so they fail on math. Is it the culture or the color doing that?

Officer Wilson not indicted in killing of Michael Brown
by Simon inafter a thorough investigation and weighing of the evidence the grand jury has decided not to indict the officer.. the reaction so far seems as predicted - people refuse to accept that the result represents justice despite claims that is what they wanted.. there is now violence and vandalism, including gunshots.
let's hope the police contain the troublemakers.. .

" It is called THE REAL WORLD. The one based on science."
I wonder if you are one of the creationists or athiests on this board.
Anybody who is athiest should have no problem believing races would not be equal in everything. Since they would believe everything about everybody are no different than animals, it would equate to saying all breeds of dogs are equal in everything and or denying that dogs can be breed to be more aggressive or more playful, etc, depending on traits.
With cultures seperated by thousands+ of years, brains could develop differently, personality traits passed down, etc.
THAT is science.

Good post shanagirl, if it still was the 1950's/60's like your above post showed, then there wouldn't be an Al Sharpton, he'd probably be on that list too.

Bill Cosby - too much smoke for no fire?
by Simon init seems like the list of people who are accusing him of rape and sexual assault is growing every day.
i'm skeptical of single accusations but the number of people and the similar stories seem overwhelming now.. it's not a conviction but to the court of public opinion ... guilty?.

So he paid for a lot of that actresses training and other things and all these years later is attacking him. Did he really rape her or was she prostituting herself to get ahead and for all the money he spent and now all these years later she is hoping to collect more?

apple doesn't fall far from the tree. The role models of the gentle giant inciting a riot. I think his stepfather should be charged with inciting a riot.

Such a model citizen, that video of MB attacking the store clerk was certainly faked and he really was a gentle giant like his step dad.

kaik - Is that serious? Did they just say those things out of the blue? Like my father is alive, my mom isn't dating, etc, so if I was you, would she have asked questions to then get to that or did she just say them? (I imagine them being like....."mmmmm something big recently happened in your life. you reply yes. They say..."mmm a death".) Was it like a process of elimination or were those things said without confirming/asking questions?

Yea I heard about the 12 year old. He was at a park, with an airsoft gun that had the orange thing removed and it looked real enough for somebody to call the police and it would be interesting to know what exactly happened that resulted in him being killed. But a real looking gun and a teen at a park, did the police have any dialogue with him or did they see somebody pointing a gun at somebody after being called there and shot thinking he was about to shoot somebody. With all these school shootings and young people getting guns, and many parents or people defending kids having guns, this sort of thing happens, doesn't mean the police are at fault.

talesin - So poverty alone is the issue? How does poverty equate to the disproportionate among of fatherless black children? Over 70% while for other races under 40%? The poorer somebody is, the more economical to live with family, etc. In poor Mexico they don't have those kinds of statistics. Now if it is poverty alone, how can that be fixed? I know for a FACT many black youth are discouraged from higher education and bettering themselves because it's being 'too white'. But the ones who do are doing good. Also because of the high criminal records, if somebody has an extensive police record by age 16, let alone any record, their opportunities greatly decrease. Is it racism that somebody with a criminal history and school dropout can't get a decent job?

Ahh interesting. The first one makes more sense now. I'm white but I'll say whether white or black, I am bad with faces if everyone has similar haircuts or features. A bunch of same size and build and hair style red headed guys would be as easy to confuse as black guys until longer exposure and notice the distinct features.
The 2nd case does seem unnerving and from your point of view based on those events, I would concur it seemed unwarranted. Unless they don't know the difference between a cherokee and explorer lol.
