AIDS among black Americans occurs at the same rates as AIDS among black Africans.

Report: Black U.S. AIDS rates rival some African nations - CNN.com

Yet the two groups had totally different environmental settings. Could it be that racial patterns of behavior persist no matter the location? Nah... that would be "racist"!

Maybe the link is poverty and lack of education and not skin color, eh, Billy?

definitely a factor...also, when you talk about comparing rates...numbers are funny like that...you can draw any impression you want out of them.

I can explain one thing ... your opening sentence does not say what the header in the link does.

Your statement is an absolute, stating that AIDS among black Americans occurs at the same rate as AIDS in black Africans

Black US AIDS rate rival SOME African NATIONS does NOT say that. Always twisting shit.

How many posts do I need before I can post a link?

It's either 15 or 20. I'm about to go to work. Ask one of the moderators to post it for you, if they have time. They'll be on in awhile.

Fifteen.

Until then, you can still post the url of the site, just uncheck the "Automatically parse links in text" box under the Submit button. It won't be a link but people can just copy/paste the url into their address bars if they want to see the site.

Or, you could tell people the Google search term that will bring a link to the site right up.

Or, you could just post a lot of your own personal opinions until you have fifteen posts and then link away.

LACK OF EDUCATION? Is there some shortage of information about AIDS in the United States? How fucking stupid do you have to be not to know about AIDS in America? And it just somehow magically happens that whites figure it out, but blacks don't?

And just HAPPEN not to find out in Africa in similar numbers?

And how does white racism explain the rates in Africa?

I mean, you couldn't ask for better conditions for an experiment/showcase of the uniformity of black behavior if you were trying to control for "white racism", for fuck's sake.

You just have to be really, really goddamn dedicated to denying racial reality to look past these statistics.

I think you are the denier here. I remember reading awhile back that the I-95 corridor up and down the east coast contained a large population of those in the US with aids and those that contracted aids by visiting prostitutes along the corridor. Guess who lives along the corridor, mostly? Poor people. One day, maybe you'll be able to discern the difference between poverty and race as a causal agent in many of the woes you decry, but I doubt it.

I never said that you had no right to have an opinion. I just said that it was, in fact, worth nothing.

No, you deluded nimrod. Poor people are hookers, mostly.

Are you really as stupid as you come across?

So there are all these aids infected hookers but no corresponding increase in non poor people infections? who is using them? And since I doubt the increase in AIDS is just women, who is infecting all those poor men?

How to explain this?

They're getting more than ugly White boys, maybe?

For this to be true, poor whites would need to suffer from AIDS at the same rate as poor blacks.

But they don't.

Also, how do you explain the fact that SAT scores of blacks are LOWER than that of whites even when the blacks come from homes with higher incomes?
