    Vice President Mike Pence told more than 40 immigrants who became new U.S. citizens after taking the oath of citizenship at the National Archives in Washington to "find a way to give back for all that you've been given." (July 4)

  2. Total bollocks. I wear Skechers sneakers for years. They are more comfortable than any other sneakers I have ever worn or tried on. They look stylish, are super comfortable and durable. They cost 30 to 40 dollars. I also own multiple pairs of Hoka for trail running which cost more than 100 dollars each but they also cost way more to make than the average Adidas or Nike sneakers because they are way more durable and the material used is far more advanced than the garbage that goes into Nike sneakers. There is a difference between true value and show off products that simply exist for bragging rights. There are people who need material possessions of certain value to justify their existence and there are people who derive their self worth from their skill set and experience in life.

    But claiming that a 100 dollar pair of Nikes is necessarily better than a pair of well chosen sneakers that cost 30 bucks is simply a mislead conviction.

  3. I did not invent the fact that African Americans more so than Caucasians buy 100 dollar sneakers for bragging rights. Please call me a nationalist because I am, I have zero problem with that. The scientific community that researched iq differences among cultures came to a clear and uncontestable agreement. It's just that those findings are not popular with the denier crowd. But that crowd has zero issue to brag that African Americans have a DNA makeup that favors high athletic achievement compared to other races. And I agree with this because it is scientifically sound. Funny how some people only pick some facts but deny others.

  7. Read your own quoted article where it states "there have been observed differences between average scores of different population groups, but there has been no agreement about whether this is mainly due to environmental and cultural factors, or mainly due to some genetic factor, or even if the dichotomy between environmental and genetic factors is the most effectual approach to the debate."

    It's pretty much on top of the wiki article. Do you understand the content? It means there has been wide agreement that there are observed differences of IQ between races, the only disagreement is whether its DNA related or due to environmental and cultural factors. However, there is wide agreement that there are observed differences in IQ between certain races. That is uncontroversial and widely agreed in the scientific community.

  9. Then I am happy to point you to the fact that Skechers sells shoes for men and women. Not sure whether they have a line for trans, queers, or gays, though. You would need to check for yourself. I doubt it, though, given that most companies are still sane enough to understand that there are only 2 genders and 2 sexes, not less, not more. I hope I could comprehensively answer your question.
