    Beck today on his radio show --

    "I firmly believe that race riots are on the way," "They are being encouraged...[the Obama administration] will take this country down. If it looks like they are losing, the uber left, they will take it down. If I can't have it, no one will."

    fact is i never claimed the media doesnt like to report on black crimes and it is "stupid" to continue to claim i did.

    it is also a fact that you have failed to address the actual story or any of the content, instead focusing on attacking posters for posting information that yall asked for. as i said, several posters asked for proof that the wisconsin incident was not isolated which i kindly provided. also, several posters asked for proof that social media was being used, which i also kindly provided. yet people like you and sam "twitternegroes" fisher continue to ignore the facts of the story and instead focus doing whatever yall are doing.

    do you realize that you act exactly like basso circa-2006. yall are two sides of the same coin. basso is far more entertaining though.

    When does this excuse no longer become valid? Obviously not 150 years... so 200 years? 300 years? Maybe 500?

    I would say when the average black income is the same as that of an average white income. I think the fact that very little is being done to help the blacks in this country that have been set back for generations will not help the issue.

    It's not the time but the effort to measure the cause. Having political correctness and band-aids does not solve the ailment. If slavery ended and Jim Crow continued for four centuries, does that mean African American's should then suddenly not care about injustice done to them because slavery's ended 400 years ago?

    Not buying it, no excuse, none, for randomly assaulting Whites just because of economic disparity, especially because these sort of hate crimes will lead to more White flight, and White flight creates even more economic disparity. In other words, anyone who thinks these attacks are going to lead to Black political or economic progress is a moron.

    I also disagree that "very little" has been done to help poor Blacks. That's simply not true, mountains of money has been spent trying to pull Blacks into the middle class.

    are you trying to imply with this picture that everyone, from literally hundreds of witnesses to the police to the "negro" mayor of philly to the FBI are lying?

    I think when compared to more than 4 centuries of slavery and oppression, whatever has been done in the last 45 years is still probably very little.

    That being said, I'm not sure why we are talking about it. There is no excuse for gangs of youths to beat up anyone. If the gang is black and the victim is white, it still doesn't excuse it.

    It's not valid now....no one I know owns a slave, or has owned one?

    No one alive has owned one, or has been one, learn from history - sure, but don't use it as and excuse for modern times.

    You don't need to have the legal status of being a slave to be poor, ignorant, pissed off and have little prospect for a future.

    What has been done? List some examples. In fact we still have crap like war on drugs that are basically ruining the black communities for very little results.

    What have we done for women? I want examples...

    What have we done for Jews? I want examples...

    What have we done for muslims in America? ... I want examples...

    What have we done for gays in America? ... I want examples...


    We can play the "circle game" forever.

    As for the war on drugs "ruining" the black community... there is ALOT more to it than the war on drugs... from poverty, to apathy, to history, to racism, to lack of accountability....

    Woman - Rights/legal system have shifted very much in Women's favor when it comes to divorces, choice of abortion (man have no say), child support and etc. Also the income gap is definitely closing.

    Jews - Take a gander at U.S.'s Israel policies

    Muslims - Probably could do more for them also

    Gays - Probably could do more for them too

    Yeah and nobody I know wasn't allowed to vote. Or go to certain places. Or eat certain places. Or have to have their own restrooms, water fountains, and schools. I mean we are talking about ANCIENT history here. Nobody today has any memory or stories or cats or dogs.

    Some people are totally stupid to the max. Why does it always have to be white people who don't know how to spell? Stupid stupid stupid crackerfaces.

    since you said you didn't make this claim i'm going to quote it again and bold the only part i care i about. i couldn't care less if this was being organized on twitter or not so please stop accusing me of being a coward for not addressing that

    i'm simply addressing your stupid ass claim that the media isn't reproting this nationally because these kids are black.

    wow - your reading comprehension is even worse than sam "twitternegros" fisher. again, i did not say that the media isnt reporting this b/c the kids are black. what i said is that if it was a group of white people going around assaulting black people and shouting racial slurs while doing it would be national news. that is my opinion and i still stand by it.

    what is truly pathetic and "stupid" is that on page 10 of this thread you are still whining and b****ing about one sentence of mine from page 1 while totally ignoring all the facts around this issue. and again, that one sentence is an opinion which i will still stand by.

    funny, you seemed pretty concerned about it previously...

    you mock and criticize people for suggesting that social media played a role and when i proved that it did you run away like a scared coward instead of acknowledging that you were in the wrong.

    i never made that claim and only a "stupid ass" would spend 10 pages arguing that i did.

    do you obamabots have a reboot button? if so you might want to push it right now b/c i think you are having some sort of malfunction.

    None of that was slavery, that was racism, related, but not the same.

    who are the racists again? some posters clearly enjoy this kind of rhetoric more than others.
