So again your link has nothing to do with topic at hand. Good to know you're stupid where you thought doubling down on a topic would somehow make your point correct in the context of the conversation.

yea it's sad. Black vets didn't even get a welcome home. Just like a thanks for playing and a fk you. If we give anything, I would give something to those brahs. Luckily, they are getting a lot more recognition now, but it's still incredibly late.

In your spare time do you volunteer and help at risk black youth through mentorship?

Donate to black charities?

What are you doing to make a difference in the black community besides posting on a bodybuilding forum?

Sure if black people pay back all the money they've costed the criminal justice system and damage from riots.

I guess we're even.

Free college would be a start. Blacks were held back during the most prosperous era, e.a. 1950s -1970s. A time when College & Real Estate was cheap. In the 1950s blacks could barely go to college let alone buy real estate. Not only have white boomers profited massively from cheap real estate, they were also ahead of the ball game acquiring high paid positions in big corporations. So while I don't agree with reparations, there is definitely merit. A lot of miscers will ignore those factors.

Reparations or not, I'm not letting racism hold me back.

The flaws in your argument is that the criminal justice system

1) Automatically Charged blacks with harsher sentences

2)Are ultimately for profit and not the rehabilitation of criminals, thus repeat offenders

I would even go as far as to say the justice system broke up the black family unit. Thugs & Gangs weren't a thing in the 60s but after Reagan crime ran amok

You shouldn't and no other black American should let it hold you back. Miscers are stuck with the same argument of reparations for slavery, and unable to see the legit case that you or I are talking about

Interesting how a college education and owning land were status symbols for my grandparents. Then, just having a "college degree" became worthless...worse yet one of the worst financial decisions you can make if it's not STEM. Then, randomly owning swamp land and paying property taxes on something you can't even utilize. FUARK, we're always behind the curve. Speaking from experience. We're fked boios. RIP. What I would do is give free college education to anyone that studies STEM; if it ain't STEM, chances of employment of SLIM.

The terrible lack of culture in the black community and reliance on ideolozing rappers and drug dealers broke up the the black family unit. Not some old white judge.

Oh and lack of personal responsibility, that's probably the biggest thing that destroyed the black community..3 words, "not my fault".

You mean the sentences that were pushed for and championed by Black inner city politicians that were trying to save their city?

Contrary to popular belief it wasn't whitey trying to punish the black crack dealer. It was Black politicians trying to save inner cities from an epidemic.

"When President Ronald Reagan signed the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1986 into law — the law that punished crack ******* dealers far more harshly than powder ******* dealers — Harlem's Rep. Charlie Rangel stood right behind Reagan. Crack dealers, many of whom were black, got harsher sentences than those who dealt powder *******, many of whom were white. And Congressional Black Caucus members pushed Reagan to create the Office of National Drug Control Policy."

https://www.investors.com/politics/c...crats-support/

But yeah, damn whitey.

Luckily the Democrats came in to save the day..

"But after black crack dealers received longer sentences than whites who dealt powder, the 1986 law became "racist." The CBC later asked President Bill Clinton to fix the disparity. His sentencing commission also advised him to narrow the disparity. Clinton, who wanted to appear "tough on drugs," refused.

So when Clinton signed his own tough anti-drug law in 1995, it preserved the crack-powder disparity. The Los Angeles Times wrote: "One week after President Clinton decried the 'disproportionate percentage' of young black men going to prison, he has decided to sign into law a bill that would maintain stiff prison sentences for those caught with small amounts of crack *******.""



Guess not.

Don't make me link Nixons own admin saying they specifically targeted black communities after the Civil Rights movement, and that same thinking carried over to Reagan. The most destructive force within the community was drugs being carried over to black community via the government. Over policing and justice system punishing black people more harshly than white counterparts while destroying the family unit.

Do better at critical thinking

Either you're trolling at this point or as delusional about the war on drugs as you are about what race you are when you look in the mirror Gaydawg
