    Did your Irish ancestors go through 300 years of slavery and an additional 100 years of institutionalized disenfranchisement where segregated Black public schools received as little as of the 5 percent the funding as non segregated schools.
    Poverty and lack of education have a tendency to be inherited and when that lack of education is explicitly forced by the state, the state has a responsibility after it acknowledges it's wrong doings to not only correct the problem but be compelled to in some form compensate those that have been disenfranchised including those that have inherited the implications of state sponsored disenfranchisement.

    The "Black Culture" that Bill O'Reilly harps about and the "lack of father figures" in Black communities can be all tied to the 100 years of state sponsored disenfranchisement after slavery, unless of course you believe that Africans are genetically predisposed to abandoning their young, then just ignore my arguments.

    Funny whenever I see the Confederate flag I am reminded that they lost.

    You clearly don't have a lot of tax burdens

    Grow a pair and support yourself. That's life. No one is owed something and someone is always disenfranchised when compared to someone else. And my ancestors fled the British. Let's not get started on how that went down.

    You clearly don't understand what "enslavement" entails.

    There is a difference between personal responsibility and state ownership to prior transgressions.

    I wish I was enslaved by the government programs granted to million dollar corporations and farms.

    Governments aren't moral creatures and don't owe anything.

    In order to better understand your position I would like to know if you believe the international community had a responsibility to form a Jewish state after the Holocaust.

    You are trying to corner me because you are assuming a lot already about my views. Mine are mostly fiscal. When you start paying taxes, you'll understand.

    And no. The international community didn't have a responsibility.

    You do understand that you are making an argument based on empathy in the same way I am. Your assertion is: I don't pay taxes(an unsubstantiated assumption), therefore I don't understand the 'suffering' you are forced through".
    My argument: It is a reasonable human condition to have resentment for those who forced state sponsored disenfranchisement upon you and that resentment will pass on for multiple generations.

    Both require a "Put yourself in my shoes" way of thinking.

    So, like I asked before, is it within African genetic predisposition to have more resentment to those that wronged them in the past? Is it intrinsic of the African race? Or could it be my explanation.

    BTW, I'm very proud of you that you pay taxes. Pat yourself on the back. You deserve it.

    You're not paying taxes... It is evident to adults who read this.

    Also I don't care abut your anger at people who are long since dead.

    Nor do I care about the race baiting you are attempting.

    So... no attempt at an actual refutation of my assertions.

    You wouldn't know how long it takes to build such a nice strawman!

    You'd have to have a job to know that!

    Were there any on the bus, and if yes, did they sit in the back or in the front?

    You clearly don't have a grasp of the English language.
