Zone1 The White Affirmative Action Program

[IM2]

Expect you to back up a thing you say? Noted is your deflection from showing how you know my skin color much less producing anything racist I have ever said! That is STRIKE ONE against you again proving you a racist, lying, race-baiting bullshitter.


There is nobody here who agrees with me whom you are willing to ACKNOWLEDGE is black. But then, most of us don't ever make a point of saying what our skin color is because we aren't all driven by racism like you are who make a point of saying: "LOOKEE ME! I'M BLACK!" And STILL, you can't produce anything to back up a single claim you ever make.


The Racist speaks. 20 words and three of them are white, black and white again. Gee, I bet someone could have a complete conversation with you only using two words! You can't even go one sentence without bringing up race! And the grand finale? I'm an idiot BECAUSE I'm white.

This thread ain't about your skin color and the fact you can't discuss the topic of how whites have been given AA since America was a British colony shows me you're white along with years of reading your racist garbage. Your inability to discuss the topic is the only deflection going on.

 

[IM2]

But the history will always be. You have admitted in other threads that you don't recognize any progress whatsoever. You have demonstrated that you are not even partially satisfied which leads me to the conclusion that you cannot be satisfied.

I don't have to be satisfied with an undone job just to make your white tuccus happy. Whites like yourself have been given every break this government has given and today we you all still complaining about the government. History includes the present, it is ongoing and does not end.

Back to the TOPIC...

Whites have received Affirmative Action since America has been a colony. Uneducated white peasants were given jobs and citizenship over Africans who were rulers of kingdoms. All kinds of standards have been lowered or altered for whites to get to where they are today.

In 1618, the Virginia colony passed "the Great Charter of privileges, orders, and laws." Among these laws was a provision that any person who settled in Virginia or paid for the transportation of another person to settle in Virginia would get fifty acres of land per person. “The right to receive fifty acres per person, or per head, was called a headright.” It got even better for colonists as those who “imported” slaves also got fifty acres per slave. The practice was continued by the government of Virginia, for 161 years, ending in 1779. Headrights were not only limited to Virginia. The headright system was used in all the original thirteen colonies. Headrights were the first of many government handouts of free stuff or guarantees providing whites with economic development assistance.

It continued with this:

The Three-Fifths Compromise is found in Article 1, Section 2, Clause 3 of the United States Constitution. It says: “Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three-fifths of all other Persons.”

And with this:

The Naturalization Act of 1790 states: “any alien, being a free white person,” could apply for citizenship, so long as they lived in the United States for at least two years and in the state where the application was filed for at least one year. This law allowed “children of citizens of the United States that may be born … out of the limits of the United States shall be considered as natural-born citizens.” Please notice the first seven words. Only whites were entitled to be citizens of this country.

And with this:

One of the greatest miscarriages of justice in this nation’s history was a direct rebuttal to the claim that all men are created equal called Dred Scott v. Sandford. I am not going into all the particulars of this case. The court’s opinion says all you need to know. “A black man has no rights a white man is bound to respect.” The result of Dred Scott v. Sandford was that whites were given rights and status blacks were denied.Or- Affirmative Action.

And with this:

Anti-literacy Laws in the United States Once Prevented Blacks from Getting an Education

(NO OTHER RACE WAS DENIED THE RIGHT TO READ)

Passed in 1862, the Homestead Acts gave away 246 million acres of land. To qualify for Homestead land, a person had to be a citizen of the United States, and blacks were not given citizenship until 1866.

And this:

"After the Civil War ended in 1865, some states passed black codes that severely limited the rights of Black people, many of whom had been enslaved. These codes limited what jobs African Americans could hold, and their ability to leave a job once hired. Some states also restricted the kind of property Black people could own. The Reconstruction Act of 1867 weakened the effect of the Black codes by requiring all states to uphold equal protection under the 14th Amendment, particularly by enabling Black men to vote. (U.S. law prevented women of any race from voting in federal elections until 1920.)

During Reconstruction, many Black men participated in politics by voting and by holding office. Reconstruction officially ended in 1877, and southern states then enacted more discriminatory laws. Efforts to enforce white supremacy by legislation increased, and African Americans tried to assert their rights through legal challenges. However, this effort led to a disappointing result in 1896, when the Supreme Court ruled, in Plessy v. Ferguson, that so-called “separate but equal” facilities—including public transport and schools—were constitutional. From this time until the Civil Rights Act of 1964, discrimination and segregation were legal and enforceable."

July 9, 2018 was the 150th anniversary of the 14th Amendment, which purported to grant African Americans the rights and responsibilities of full citizenship, among other things. American history shows that people who are equal on paper can be unequal in practice—especially with regards to the right to bear arms.

On April 16, 1895, the United States Supreme Court rendered another one of the sorriest decisions in American history. It is known as Plessy vs. Ferguson. From this decision came the principle of separate but equal.

And this:

The National Housing Act was passed by Congress and signed by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1934. This law created the Federal Housing Administration or the FHA. The National Housing Act is the policy that may have had the most impact on wealth accumulation in modern America.

Between 1934 and 1968, the FHA implemented and put into practice a policy that still negatively impacts communities today. The FHA Underwriting Manual set the guidelines real estate agents used to assess home values in American neighborhoods. This manual promoted racist real estate practices. It was done by defending racially restrictive covenants and segregated communities. Due to this manual, the FHA established a neighborhood grading system based purely on false racist perceptions.

Redlining was the name of that grading system. My point here is the FHA was a government agency whose policies specifically provided whites with opportunities to increase wealth through homeownership. The formation of the FHA and its guaranteed loan program only worked to increase white advantage. “Of the $120 billion worth of new housing subsidized by the government between 1934 and 1962, less than 2 percent went to nonwhite families.”

"The racial-exclusion clauses in deeds were not only recommended by the federal government, but in some cases required as a condition of Federal Housing Administration and Veterans Administration subsidies for the creation of all-white suburbs, like Levittown in New York state. And federal and state courts, in violation of their constitutional obligations, enforced those deed clauses by ordering the eviction of African Americans who bought homes where the deeds barred them from doing so."

And this:

The Social Security Act of 1935 created the Social Security program, state unemployment insurance, and assistance to single women with children.Today, most Americans love the program. However, when the act was signed, the law excluded occupations mainly done by blacks. When President Roosevelt signed the law, approximately two-thirds of the blacks in America were ineligible. For years, most blacks were excluded from social security savings and could not get unemployment.

And this:

Title 4 or IV of the social security act of 1935 provided grants to states as Aid To Dependent Children. Eventually the name of the program was changed to Aid to Families with Dependent Children. This was welfare, folks. Assistance for single moms with children and no daddy at home. In 1935. Blacks were excluded.

And this:

The Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 created the minimum wage and time and a half overtime pay for working over forty hours a week. Child labor was eliminated by this act. All these were good things, but… In every law that was passed as part of The New Deal, Roosevelt had to compromise with southern representatives to get the votes he needed. In the case of the FLSA, due to pressure from southern congress members, he decided that industries would be excluded from the regulations where the majority of workers were black. Because of this, blacks were paid less than the minimum wage.

And this:

On June 22, 1944, President Roosevelt signed the Servicemen’s Readjustment Act, better known as the G.I. Bill. This law provided benefits for veterans returning from World War Two. This act included funds for college tuition, low-cost home loans, and unemployment insurance. As in every other program during this time, southern members of Congress fought the passage of these laws unless there were provisions that limited access to blacks.

Over one million returning black soldiers were unable to get GI benefits. My father was one of those soldiers.

 

[IM2]

Most people in this forum were born shortly after World War II and grew up in the prosperous aftermath. You were children while your parents availed themselves of the massive government assistance primarily given to whites. Many of you grew up in racially segregated suburbs in homes your parents paid for with the help of guaranteed loans backed by the government. Your parents, primarily fathers, were able to take advantage of all the government benefits from the G.I. bill. You grew up while the government enacted a massive infrastructure project that has created permanent jobs in all fifty states called the interstate highway system. As children during that era, most of you were oblivious to the enormous government assistance whites received. As you grew up during this era and the so-called American work ethic was preached about, you saw only the progress and grew up to believe it was due to rugged individualism and earned by merit. And today, you are the people telling us that government cannot help us.

This thread ain't about your skin color

Really? Coulda fooled me as by my fast count, you bring up skin color at least 37 times in your OP! Not counting links.

and the fact you can't discuss the topic of how whites have been given AA since America was a British colony

Maybe first, you ought to prove that, then explain why they shouldn't when both Britain and the USA were both essentially white countries founded by white people where even in my life growing up, 85% of all the people here WERE white! Maybe we should discuss why the country of Chad gives most of its AA to people of color! Oh, the fiends!

shows me you're white along with years of reading your racist garbage.

You've been reading my racist garbage for years? Why thank you! I almost feel bad admitting that I read almost nothing of yours.

Right, you would rather whine, bitch and complain than to ever recognize that much positive progress has been made.

Progress is in the eye of the beholder. Most of the progress gained by blacks has been at the direct expense of whites. Liberals' misguided attempts at preferential treatment have manifested the addition of another class of victims, whites. The founders, the constructionist, and the true framers of this country are a dying breed. The face of this nation is quickly becoming 3rd world in nature. Liberals are sick in the head and will do whatever it takes to garner more socialistic control.

What anyone of any race was given before any of our lifetimes is irrelevant today. You cannot compare people of today who were NOT given anything. WTF is wrong with you?

I don't have to be satisfied with an undone job just to make your white tuccus happy. Whites like yourself have been given every break this government has given and today we you all still complaining about the government. History includes the present, it is ongoing and does not end.

History includes the present? You are out of your black delusional mind.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

Right, you would rather whine, bitch and complain than to ever recognize that much positive progress has been made.

What progress would that be? That you don't call me the Nword to my face anymore, that I can sit next to you at the same restaurant, I can shop next to you at the clothing store, grocery store or department store that you do. The disparity of wealth in this country hasn't changed, the disparity in education hasn't changed, the disparity in land ownership hasn't changed. Notice how black folks can get a loan to purchase a car, we can get a loan to purchase a house, but when it comes to business loans the disparity comes back again.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

What anyone of any race was given before any of our lifetimes is irrelevant today. You cannot compare people of today who were NOT given anything. WTF is wrong with you?

Sure we can, the past dictates the present and the future. The disparities that black folks have faced since the first slaves stepped off the slave ships affects us until this day.

 

[MizMolly]

Sure we can, the past dictates the present and the future. The disparities that black folks have faced since the first slaves stepped off the slave ships affects us until this day.

Only because you want something to complain about. Why would slavery affect you today? It was horrible but it is definitely in the past. What are only whites allowed to do or have today that you aren’t?

You do realize that not all white people get car loans, home loans, business loans, right? As far as education, public school funding is tax based. The wealthier the area, the more taxes paid, the better the schools. White kids are affected too.

 

[IM2]

Don't talk about how the past doesn't matter then celebrate the 4th of July.

 

[MizMolly]

Don't talk about how the past doesn't matter then celebrate the 4th of July.

What a doofus! July 4th is a positive momentous date to celebrate. WTF does it have to do with you dwelling on negative things that can’t be changed and/or do not pertain to people today?
