    What are blacks doing to fight racial stereotypes other than blaming non-blacks for their reactions to blacks?

    Are they working to reduce crime in their neighborhoods? Are they working to increase graduation rates? Are they working to reduce babies born out of wedlock?

    Perhaps it's time to address the underlying causes of stereotyping and discrimination -- some of which is innate.

    What are people's thoughts on this?

    Damn, pgabriel said it all. Those are some pretty ignorant statements Trader, even for you.

    What coffee? Your little comments look like you listened to or read William Bennett's comment on the subject and agreed. So should we start aborting black babies?

    after a 15 minute wait of course, since black folks don't like to drink coffee.

    Stereotyping can be racist. Why is that so hard to comprehend?

    I've got the feeling this is the start of a beautiful relationship. You can look forward to future tj posts proposing forced sterilization of black males as a crime reduction measure, followed by donkey classics like "good point".

    do you realize that restaurants have been sued successfully for actively promoting discriminating against blacks. this isn't a new topic, and it didn't happen in the fifties and sixties.

    I notice that when a republican gets caught in a huge controversy or when the far right is caught being racist, T_J is nowhere to be found. Talk about trying to counter the stereotypes, he's the biggest hypocrite of them all.

    I've actually heard about this quite a few times - friends telling me Sunday morning church-types are the absolute WORST tippers ever.
