City Forced To Lower Police Testing Standards Because Not Enough Blacks Passed

[phenomena]

Instead of trying to play "gotcha" games here, why don't you actually respond? You asked a question, I answered it, offering several valid points, which you ignored. You were disappointed because your "gotcha" tactics didn't work, and moved on to try to play that game with someone else.

Instead of that, why don't you respond to my post? Why don't you respond to the many points I made in response to your questions? What's wrong? No ammo?

The fact is that "these criminals" not only target their own communities, but outside communities. Hispanic/black violence is at an all time high. And "these criminals" commit violent crimes upon whites at over 1200% the rate which whites commit violent crimes upon them. Yet, that's not "hate".... The fact that they victimize their own communities does not eliminate the fact that they victimize white communities at a comically disproportionate rate.

I don't "believe" anything. That implies some measure of faith. I don't need faith, I have facts. Facts are what my views are based on. I don't know if it's a "genetic tendency" to commit violent crimes or not, although that's certainly debatable. Either way, that's irrelevant, because there is an actual, statistical tendency. That is easily verifiable.

Quote from Trader7793:

1prometheus I am curious to hear what your solutions are to these racial issues in the USA. In prior post phenomena outlined what he thinks should happen, but what is your opinion? Do you believe a new form of segregation would be helpful for the nation? Are you a supporter of sending blacks back to Africa? It would seem that since you think the problems are genetic, more extreme measures are needed to fix things?

but they are smart enough to become the president of the USA, that is more important.

Too bad there's no relation b/w the two. Idiotic statement.

Really???? Obama went to Harvard Law school. You can bet your ass he didn't get their based his merit/academic qualifications. Affirmative Blacktion can even get unqualified morons elected president.

Wow there's an incredible amount of racism on ET. I forgot that Bush's great grades were how he got into Yale...oh wait....

Right there on pillar #2

Facts Are To Liberals Like Kryptonite Is To Superman!

Facts are not "racism", statistical findings are not "hate". So, please tell me- what here has been "racist"?

Quote from Ricter:

Because you know so much about getting into Harvard Law...

I'll grant that if we overlaid the normal distribution of blacks' intelligence (if that group could be definitively identified, it can't) over that of whites' (same problem) we'd find that that the medians are different--well nigh two centuries of repression will do that (hell, three minutes of putting a pillow over your face could do it. I speak generically, we're not going to be able to lower your IQ much). But on those graphs we'd also see wings, the outliers, and to the right, the higher intellects, like where Obama is, would be far, far beyond your own position. I can say this with confidence because if you understood statistics you would not make such unqualified claims as you did, above.

Lol. Well said. I think that an overlay comparing the intelligence distribution of low poverty individual's vs those with more resources you would have something much more telling. Many poverty-stricken kids of all races live in areas where they're not allowed to even take their books home with them. Not to mention that many of their books are years and years old. All those things in conjunction with a lack of consistent parental support. It's not a race issue, it's more of a financial issue. Poverty and lack of resources/support vs Relative wealth and access to resources/support (SAT tutors, parents, etc...)

Oh and nice job proving your intelligence with your use of the word their....smart guy. Lol.

Actually that's not true. Even amongst impoverished people of the same economic status white consistently outscore minorities, except for east asians. Not hate, just facts.

My comment was based on the person's comment about how/why Obama achieved entrance into Harvard Law and his academic performance while there. As far as I know, neither George Dubya's or Obama's academic records were released. If you have proof of otherwise feel free to post a link and I will concede defeat. Otherwise...there are no facts in reference to the comment that I replied to.

I am a betting man, and I would hasten to take the other side of your bet if you really think that George W. is more intelligent than Obama. I'm sure I wouldn't be alone betting against you there.

Right now these are empty comments. Link?....better yet, credible link?
