gee and random people win the lottery... too.
Statistics and facts just are not on his side of his opinion.
don't let math get in your way sb...
anyone who can read data and wealth tables would never ask such a leading question to an actor.

really??????????? are you that delusional....
the facts speak for themselves. To date in america blacks do not have equality by virtually any important metric. and that is not right. Just like we pay tribute to those who served our country, we need to honor those who built it and were not given anything... this is american heritage that built this great nation and till all are equal we need to strive for it... all should be made at least equal.
See I am fo mandating a law that there must be representative government that includes minorities specially in federal positions. This would also include at least half of all elected officials be female. I believe one northern european country with a higher standard of living in the US has such a law for females.

Lest we forget the role of the Tea Party in tolerating racism:
| Quote: | Chris McDaniel, a state senator from Mississippi and primary challenger of GOP Sen. Thad Cochran, has already gotten into some trouble for hanging out with neo-Confederates, but according to a report from Talking Points Memo, it would appear the blowback wasn’t sufficient to put McDaniel off the practice altogether.
Per TPM’s report, McDaniel’s Twitter account (which is unverified but frequently tweets material suggesting it is being run by McDaniel or a member of his team) retweeted on Sunday a message from RRSmith #WR (@rrsray) urging others to support the Tea Partyer and former radio host’s campaign. Here’s a screen shot from TPM:
The @rrsray Twitter bio describes the user as “Nationalist, staunch proponent of 2nd & 10th Amendment, GoldenDawn & Southern Nationalism.” (Golden Dawn is a greek neofascist party, recently embraced by many political white supremacists in the U.S.)
A better sense of @rrsray’s political racism, however, can be found by perusing their tweets, which are frequently and unsubtly bigoted. @rrsray tends to retweet the most virulently racist material (which we’ll spare you) but their racism is nevertheless apparent: |

Then there is homophobia, tolerated by the right. Exhibit A--Scott Lively:
| Quote: | Selections from Scott Lively’s presentations at a conference in Kampala, Uganda in March 2009
"Exposing the Truth behind Homosexuality and the Homosexual Agenda"
"[homophobia] This is a word that is not a scientific term. This is a rhetorical tool of psychological manipulation… Because everyone knows if you dare to say homosexuality is wrong…you are a homophobe, which means you have a mental illness. That’s what’s built into this terminology."
"What does the gay movement mean when it says tolerance?...It means absolutely unconditionally accepting it as perfectly normal, healthy, natural and something that should be integrated into every part of society."
"The term ‘sexual orientation’…is basically a code word for homosexuality."
"If your definition of homosexuality is being able to do whatever you want to and that you should be able to go and engage in sex with another person and because of that the disease you have is going to spread to that person and they’re going to take it home and give it to their wife, how much tolerance should we have for that?...zero tolerance."
"Most of the people…they say gays are born that way and it has been…proven…That is a lie. That’s what’s called a lie. It is not true. There is no definitive scientific study that has ever proved that homosexuality is innate"
"If homosexuality is not caused by genetic factors…then that means it can be acquired... And if it can be acquired, shouldn’t we be doing everything in our power to protect people from acquiring it? Shouldn’t we lean to the side of protecting the children instead of affirming a scientific hypothesis that has no actual truthful foundation?"
"If someone is identifying themselves based on their orientation toward a person of the same gender, then that seems to me to be a self-evident disorder."
"If you catch them at 12 years old, which they are working very aggressively to do and you tell those children that if you have an attraction towards someone of the same gender, that means you’re gay and because you’re gay you need to come with us."
"There’s a whole network of people ready to simply inculcate you and enfold you into their world and they want more and more people in their world because they are in a campaign to change everything"
"[homosexuality and pedophilia] They are equated. They are equated because the very same arguments you can make for homosexuality you can apply to pedophilia in many ways, not in every way but in many ways…clearly it’s not the way it ought to be. It’s wrong and it should be discouraged."
"Even though probably the majority of homosexuals are not oriented towards young people, there is a significant number that are, especially the men…male homosexuality has historically been not adult to adult it has been adult to teenager"
"The gay movement is an evil institution that’s goal is to defeat the marriage-based society and replace it with a culture of sexual promiscuity in which there’s no restrictions on sexual conduct except the principle of mutual choice."
"We divide those between the person that we love and the movement that we hate."
"The gay movement doesn’t care about what you think…they’re focused on the young ones because if you can put the ideas into their minds it’s just a matter of time before you die off and they take your place and their value system will then allow all the rules to be changed." |
You righties must be so proud of this kind of stuff. The Reagan recruitment of the religious right pays dividends--in hatred. |

| Homophobia has nothing to do with racism. Just ask a majority of black Americans.... Oh you didn't see the stats on prop 8? |

| Blind hateful bias is blind hateful bias. But it finds a warm home in the Christian right. |
