    Where I come from a greenie is a tree hugging no hoper who thinks the environment must be preserved at the expense of the community whilst I don't think climate change is actually happening, not in the way it is being sold anyway, taking temperature and CO2 readings next to an active volcano , give me a break, please, but it has nothing to do with this discussion

    THose are lame excuses... people are responsible for their own action.

    Black people are no less capable of civilized behaviour and success than any other group... despite the way so many of them appear to act... because that takes effort and work.. something that the criminal element has an adversion to doing... despite their ethnic background.

    You on the other hand like so many other lefties... seem to believe they are inferiour and as such need estra help and assistance because you don't think they can do it on their own.

    I on the other hand know they can if they got off their butts and made the effort. That would make you part of the racist element here... not me.

    Nice rant smoothy as usual you ignore the obvious, it's a lot easier for a young black guy to go to prison than his white counterpart because the cops hang around the hood instead of the gated communities where most of the dope dealing goes on, have no lawyers, and get heavier sentences.

    But like always you never address unequal circumstances and opt for the hardcore racist version of everything. If by a miracle the law was equally applied and enforced the kids in the burbs around the hood would be doing as much time as the kids on the corner unless daddy's lawyer get it reduced, or posts bail.

    I bet you thought all the criminals were equal? Naw, I never heard you rail against the ones with lawyers and loot. Just the poor ones of color.

    That's pure leftist propaganda and you can't prove otherwise. The lefties are invested in the mentality that they and certain other groups are incapible of getting by much less succeeding without the help of the government.

    Its all total BS.

    Just like the other favorite lefty rant that someone can't get rich without someone getting poor as a result.

    It might work that way in certain lefty neighborhoods like CHicago where crime is the major industry, but not in the real world.

    Such as the unequal circumstances created by LBJ when he set up the "War on Poverty" that he told two governors was designed to have blacks "voting Democrat for two hundred years?"

    Blacks will vote Democrat. - What Liberals Say

    There's your hardcore racism

    Poor white people don't get the same benefits... Poor Asians don't either... nor do the poor of any other ethnic group.

    So much for equality as far as Liberals are concerned... its handouts for our voter base and screw the rest.

    Here is a factoid for you. This is some of the poorest of the poor we have in the United States. And these people have a much different attitude then the ones that figure its owed to them for a lifetime.

    The main program of the "War on Poverty," AFDC, encouraged staying in 'unequal circumstances.'

    Typically, only very poor families composed
    Of single mothers and their children qualified
    For AFDC. This feature led some to
    Argue that the program discouraged marriage
    And work. To be eligible for AFDC, a
    Family had to include a dependent child who
    Was under age 18, was a citizen or permanent
    Legal resident, and could be considered
    Deprived of parental support—usually
    Because no father lived in the home

    And I can back that up because unlike the lefties here whose world perspective is what they are told through a lens of bias... I actually grew up around some of the Appalachia culture and people. As I grew up in the northeastern fringe of it.

    The ones I grew up around (NC hills) had illegal stills and drove over roads at night, delivering illegal moonshine and avoiding the "revenuers." And that wasn't the only illegal thing they did.

    Didn't know any with stills... but that's not saying there wasn't any. Just nobody admitted to it.
