    Why would facts be considered racist?

    almost 80% of all black children are born out of wedlock.
    the majority of those children are born to young, unskilled, low income mothers.
    Most black children dont have fathers in the household.
    blacks commit the majority of violent crime in America.
    black communities in America are amongst the most violent in the world.
    blacks get into colleges with much lower SAT scores and lower gpa's than whites or Asians.
    many blacks choose college majors that simply dont pay well.
    most blacks in prison are in there for violent crimes and serious drug offenses, not minor drug crimes.

    These are all facts, not opinion. why is stating fact to debate someone racists? why is bringing up these factual issues during s discussion considered racist?
    it is because you cannot deny facts so the best way to win is to not let the other use facts.

    I would think this would be obvious. Assuming your facts are accurate, ANY time facts or statistics show a story people don't want it to show, they will challenge those statistics. Sometimes you can challenge statistics because the stats are cherry picked or only showing the part of the truth you want them to show. Lies, damned lies, statistics. That sorta thing.

    On the left, the desire to discredit truth is usually an emotional one. The left generally believe they have the right of it and no amount of factual information is going to change their mind. The epitome of Confirmation Bias. On the right, the discarding of truth when presented is usually due to stubbornness, blatant stupidity and an overall feeling of "I live how I want, you live how you want and leave me alone." The problem is that there are many problems in the country that require participation from both sides to solve, and neither wants to listen to the other.

    Stats on blacks and their social demographics only matter if you are trying to solve problems that are relevant to blacks. If all you want is their vote, these statistics don't matter. If all you want is to present these statistics to show the hypocrisy of the left, then you aren't interested in improving the lives of blacks either.

    Personally, I would much prefer we focus on solving problems than attacking people. But that requires us to settle on middle ground. Compromise. Accept each other's disagreements. That doesn't seem in the cards anymore.

    as long as there continues to be a liberal political narrative, the real issues in the black community can never be addressed. its actually sad that blacks are being used by both white and black liberals who need the narrative to stay in power.

    There are political narratives on both sides of the aisle. As they related to blacks, the liberal narrative is the most destructive.

  8. Why doesn't Trump praise Bin Laden.....he must have been impressed with the guy for his ability to pull off the attack.....Maybe Trump wants Lee and Bin Laden portraits in his home.

    a confederate flag represents southern pride, not racism. i see absolutely nothing wrong with it. of course no one says anything about gangsta rap.

    Your line of questioning is tantamount to a post that states "it is a fact that a person born with one leg does not run as fast as a person with two legs".

    As long as the black community continues to be disadvantaged it will always be like comparing apples and pears.
