Why are blacks such cowards?

[Asclepias]

Examples?

I tried opening the discussion on another thread but was met with pettifoggers that did nothing to promote the discussion and everything to avoid it.

Makes me wonder what they're afraid of.

We are afraid of your deflections. They do nothing to promote discussion.

Perhaps one day you will man up and grow a pair. You shouldn't have to live in fear.

I will always be afraid of deflections. Maybe when you grow a pair and stop deflecting you too will be able to hold a discussion.

Why are blacks such cowards when it comes to discussing racism?

There are some blacks that speak the truth, who are very courageous, likeThomas Sowell.

What has Sowell said about racism?

Sowell rejects the idea that black people are perpetual vicitims of white racism. You know basically your whole theory to everything.

I reject that idea as well if you know what perpetual means. However, what does that have to do with the fact racism an ongoing problem to this very day?

Hey ladies lets have an honest discussion on Male / Female Relationships. I'll start: Why bitches be crazy?

...what!??! ....What?!?!?

Blacks are not cowards when it comes to discussing racism. It's easy to have a straightforward, sincere, interesting, educational conversation with a Black American about race.

Where things go into the toilet is when the PC Police stick their noses into it. That's when any challenge to American Blacks is met with the diversionary scream of "racist!". In a private conversation, an American Black will usually agree that much work needs to be done by everyone.

.

I know that word gets tossed around by both sides. Frankly, I'd like an agreement on what "racist means. Because the very question "Why are blacks such cowards when it comes to discussing racism?" is racist as it starts by lumping people together based upon nothing but race.

Here is the way the OP tried to have an "honest debate" on racism

Start a thread about it and I'll answer but this thread is supposed to be about racism. A subject no one wants to talk about because they'd rather have the crime talk.

I doubt you'll have an honest answer about it even if I did start a thread.

Start one and find out, but this is just pre-whining at this point.

You seem to have a problem answering a direct question. A question which you conveniently left out of your quote.

In order to have a discussion on racism, you need to explain your definition of the word. Or you can simply continue with your pettifogging.

Because if you want to discuss something other than the thread OP, start a thread and I'll answer.

but this routine where you double dog dare me to answer an off topic question isnt working.

Do we really want a discussion on racism Page 7 US Message Board - Political Discussion Forum

So when the "double dog dare you" routine runs thin...what does the honest debate OP do?

Why start another thread of course crying about him being ignored because his trolling didnt work. Now he's onto name calling...again

Thanks for posting that. (Even though you edited a part of my quote where I asked you about racism)

Now everyone can see how you weaseled out of having a discussion.

^This....to lump all of a race of people together in your very title of your thread is broad brushing at the least, racism at the most.

Blacks simply cannot discuss racism. It's odd because they scream racism at the drop of a hat.

 

[Asclepias]

White men cant discuss racism because they claim it doesnt exist.

Racism does exist and you are proof of it.

I own no system that oppresses white men. The NBA doesnt count.

What system oppresses blacks?

 

[Mad Scientist]

Blacks aren't cowards, they have no problem calling White people racist.

Proving it, well that's another matter.

(I see what the OP did there)

How is it possible to discuss racism without discussing race?

It is perfectly possible. Perhaps the problem is you.

You actually don't see it, do you? Amazing.

Why are blacks such cowards when it comes to discussing racism?

Because they know it's fake, but it's all they have.

There hasn't been anything close to actual racism ever in this country.

The meaning of racism was changed so that segregation, prejudice, and discrimination became the new racism.

Could you explain how segregation isn't racism?

Jim Crow may be a more familiar term.

The old meaning of racism was acts that would effect an entire race of people. No person or business is large enough or powerful enough to accomplish that.

The government is. You don't think that segregation effects an entire race of people in a given country?
