Genus Species "Metropolitanus Selfentitlementus Juvenii." reverting to their primal, feral state. Better call "Animal Control" and put them back in a cage...
Then we'd have to feed them and clean their cage. Nope - make it clean, quick and over. I'm sure there's a flat spot behind the McD's that would be useful.
somewhat interesting factoid: the grill temperature for breakfast foods at McDonalds is different from the grill temperature for lunch foods. So "late to breakfast" is not just a rule - blame it on the food! Maybe someone should have offered them $10 to go to Burger King, which serves breakfast earlier [possibly 24 hours now]. I want to know what happened to these grown-up children. Destruction of property and assault were crimes, the last time I looked. Wait, the police were probably minutes away.....
Doesn't matter - if they have a management decision that they don't serve XXX after 10 AM, then that's their rule. They don't need to give an excuse why other than "that's the way we run our business".
It's apparent - these animals are spoiled... and like all spoiled goods, they should be discarded quickly and safely to protect the public health.
It's more operational from a production line standpoint than grills. MCD has optimized their preparation line equipment to serve the appropriate menu and when they transition from breakfast to lunch, they swap out equipment in the line to facilitate this.
Wow... this kind of behavior is everywhere. All day today I wished I had videoed the incidences I witnessed this movrning involving a couple young black guys insulting and cussing out the hindu woman working behind the counter of the 7-11 this morning. The men weren’t even together in the store. It wasn’t even 9:00 am, when one right after the other screamed expletives at her across the counter. The second guy, (young black guy) told her on his way out: “Somebody is going to hurt you real soon. Not me, not even someone from this town, but you going to be hurt real bad real soon.” I think she just wanted to see an ID for a cigarette sale. He was so mad he left his Arizona Ice Tea!
This happened at the same store a couple years ago. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-LEsAQSH_... The only reason the son of the owner put the video on YOUTUBE was that originally the police said there was nothing they could do.
Being a non-black behind the register anytime appears to be racist from what I have seen. Poor woman gets blasted every day. Shame, really. She’s very sweet and customer-oriented. She works six days a week, raises two kids, and when ever her husband has the day off from the UPS, he comes in works. I always tease him he must be on holiday if I am seeing him at the store.
Jesus Mary and Joseph! We're those pants or some hippy's curtains?? Throwing chairs??!!! Some bitches need to get arrested. Hey does McDonald's take SNAP cards??
The entitlement attitude comes not just from government coddling but from black consciousness raising, black "pride", black demands for reparations and aggressive claims of equal rights or more than equal rights to make up for past underclass status.
This assertive behavior towards whites manifests itself in deliberate ways of putting whites down, such as when walking down supermarket aisles or going through doors, forcing whites to step aside.
This emotional need for symbolic retaliation against all comers will take a lot of work to change. And it will have to come from black leaders. The current attitude is quite eager to reconfigure society for blacks to have white slaves.
Attitudes are contagious. And government will pander to get votes from this constituency, so expect things to get worse. With their own subculture, their own language, it will become more difficult than ever to communicate and collaborate. It will give a whole new meaning to the word blackmail.
Sad, because individually there are wonderful black people, and benevolent individuals on both sides of the racial divide. And for all the integration efforts, in films, TV shows, sports, jobs, schools, lifting blacks to equal stations, in all areas of society, evolution is still happening and at a slow pace.
It took a long time for whites to accept blacks in their midst as equals (and not everywhere yet), and it will take just as long for blacks to accept whites as equals.
Respect for individuals and voluntary self-restraint from force and fraud is a higher function of civilization. The continuum from animal instinct to civilized homo sapiens is a long, hard climb. Let us not be tempted to devolve backwards.
nicely put, both in "whites as equals" and that we - but only if we choose - will make the climb together, if we can depend on the content of every one's character.
I would never call them bitches. My beagle is a bitch and she's the sweetest creature you'll ever meet -- unless you act in a threatening manner. However, their bodies are those of a human, but their brains are that of a predator animal. They need to be trained like the animal they are in reality.
The job is simple...not nice. The only thing an animal, human animals included, understand as an inhibitor is fear. We, as a culture, expect the rule of law and or legality to be an inhibition to this kind of behavior.....the removal of liberties. In my experiences; personal up-front confrontations, I provided that environ of potential physical / mortal threat. We have removed this "power" from our law enforcement agencies / personnel. I don't want to re-institute that license, rather, hold harmless the Citizen/s who intervene on such.
I have begun to think you are right. After all, we know that, when seconds count, the police are just minutes away. and we also know that the police are not obligated to prevent a crime, merely to take away the lawbreakers. Perhaps a _real_ Neighborhood Watch organization, in which all the neighbors are members and responsible, in some way, for maintaining order?
So we could throw the furniture back at them? Seems hard on the owner of the furniture. But it might work. What I _don't_ want is to merely drive them away, to trouble make another day.
Being a dino who used to work at a maximum security prison for way too long, I'm kinda dull to idiotic violence. I just stared and wondered if those two entitled women grew those fat butts off of food stamps.
LOL! (My initial reaction). If such is the case, they should have hung around and asked for a burger with bacon so it would kinda taste like breakfast.. I guess they have such a selection. Last time I bought food from McDonald's was two years ago during a 5-hour road trip. Quarter ponders are easy to eat while driving.
To drive, to eat a quarter pounder with fries and too think about a difficult problem? No, no, that's too much multitasking for a dino. I mean, I would not even put ketchup on my fries even of they gave it to me without my asking. I would look like someone shot me. Or like a rejected allosaur suitor. (Female allosaurs were bigger, and mating was dangerous for males. I read that somewhere). Or you could ask my ex.
My golf buddy said a few years back as we strolled up a fairway, "If you've read Atlas Shrugged and watched Idiocracy you have clarity." This is right out of Idiocracy...
I thought the way the big guy casually caught the chairs thrown was awesome. Need a few more like him. Too bad the criminals were not restrained by the neck (and gagged), or otherwise while the local authority (if their is any) was called.
I was impressed with him, too. You notice, also, that he only defended himself - even took the time to set the chairs upright. Looks like martial arts training to me.
the incidence of black people trashing places and attacking people all over the country has risen significantly since 0 took office an h became attorney general. this aggression is because they one don't have jobs and two the almighty 0 has let them down. they are frustrated because they actually know that they are is an economic situation that they will in almost all cases not be able to dig themselves out of. and if they don't know it now they will learn eventually that 0 has never cared about them only himself.
This is due to the welfare state. It has promoted single parenthood. There is no family structure. No Mother to watch over them, no Father to set a stern example. This is not just a black thing, there are plenty of white single mothers. I have read that 3 of every 5 children are born to a single mother, no Father in the picture except to provide the sperm to father the child. No support except for the government and our taxpayer dollars.
I hate to admit it. But, I laughed really hard when I saw this video recently. It wasn't a laugh of joy. More like a laugh of resignation that our society is really finished. I can't believe not only that adults would act like this, but the laughter was from the realization that this kind of behavior isn't all that rare.
"Racist"? would be interesting...with their two-year serving CEO being a Black man (Donald Thompson), with next to no "Credentials", except, near 25 years of service from the kitchen on up. Topping that...he is awesome in his expression of how business should be run. This is a "Gulcher" personality.
By ending breakfast early, like around 10:30 am, McDonald's is discriminating against the welfare crowd, which, percentage-wise, is dominated by the minorities. It would be unfair for them to be forced to get up earlier than their normal welfare appointment time.
Then we ought to legislate the requirement of a "Sarcastic Font Lock" button on all keyboards!!!! Call the president...He has the PEN! Ohhhh...I'm too skinny to be an oxy-moron..
This happens.....on six hours sleep in three days. Readying docs for IP lawsuit. Of which...thanks to you and D for "Pendulum". Looking in a life mirror.
Unfortunately, I think there may be a larger supply of them than we are able to hold out through the disappearance of. [clunky sentence award of the day]
It's strange, but....when I discover that there are people in this country who will fight for a McDonald's breakfast, it's a fine reminder that I do have my priorities straight.
The fact that these people are held up as idiots also restores a bit of my faith in humanity.
Below, I've quoted a post you made a while back. Kudos to you and your family on their accomplishments (regardless of your race). However, remember that using the_same_ 'broad brush', in your comment above, will not render the detail produced with a fine one.... Isn't that the same point you're trying to make?
"I am a Black man with three sons. One is in a music conservatory and is an accomplished violinist, another just won the Atlanta regional in Robotics and has interviews with MIT and my other son is a web designer. Oh by the way I am a Masters level mental health counselor and I grew up in the projects in the South Bronx with my mother, father and 2 brothers and three sisters. By the way my Dad is 93 and my mother is 88 and they are still together as well as my brother and his wife, my sister and her husband (40 years w/ seven children you would love to have as role models for your children) and me and my wife. In other words speak about what you know and stop classifying people you don't know. ...."
race is not part of this discussion. As usual, you are a one-note. You should be giving this "ashamed" talk to those two women. And did you not notice the comments made about the gentleman who rebuffed their violence. He was compared to a super-hero. Conservatism is about ideology NOT race, unlike some political persuasions. There is empirical evidence showing the welfare state mentality breeds private property contempt. The video is dramatic and also...... ridiculous. People behaving like animals is anti-human. I don't care what color your skin is.
"Racism is the lowest, most crudely primitive form of collectivism. It is the notion of ascribing moral, social or political significance to a man’s genetic lineage—the notion that a man’s intellectual and characterological traits are produced and transmitted by his internal body chemistry. Which means, in practice, that a man is to be judged, not by his own character and actions, but by the characters and actions of a collective of ancestors.
Racism claims that the content of a man’s mind (not his cognitive apparatus, but its content) is inherited; that a man’s convictions, values and character are determined before he is born, by physical factors beyond his control. This is the caveman’s version of the doctrine of innate ideas—or of inherited knowledge—which has been thoroughly refuted by philosophy and science. Racism is a doctrine of, by and for brutes. It is a barnyard or stock-farm version of collectivism, appropriate to a mentality that differentiates between various breeds of animals, but not between animals and men.
Like every form of determinism, racism invalidates the specific attribute which distinguishes man from all other living species: his rational faculty. Racism negates two aspects of man’s life: reason and choice, or mind and morality, replacing them with chemical predestination." Ayn Rand.
I won't/can't justify every comment to appear on this board. That would be irresponsible and I am not responsible for them. Every site has some bad apples, but I would invite you to present a story of a similar nature involving Cacucasions or any other race you desire, and chronicle the response of the majority before you condemn the entire group with your wide brush. Your comments to date suggest a bias of your own that lead one to believe you see racism under every stone. You believe yourself capable of looking into everyone's soul and determining motivation. I find that presumptuous. Until you have observed a different reaction generally from these people when the same conditions except for skin color exist I find your reasoning suspect. You comment and call racism, yet you never address any specifics. You just lay down your blanket opinion and leave it at ad-hominem. This logical fallacy does not bolster your argument.
Just because the perpetrators are of color does not excuse the actions and just because there are a disproportionate number of these stories does not indicate racist intent. It is a statistical fact that there is a disproportionate amount of mayhem/crime perpetrated by a minority in this nation. That is a fact not racism. It therefore stands to reason we will see more of them. It is largely a matter of social conditions NOT genetic. For instance, poverty is thought to be a major factor regarding crime and studies show that there has been a continual breakdown of the family unit and it is a large factor influencing behavior. More children are being born out of wedlock in broken homes. This factor has reached epidemic proportions in the black community and is also growing in the white community. See/google the studies by William Galston. Here are few links to articles that references his work and how it corresponds to poverty. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news... http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/viewS...
Actually, all this quite serious. This is the adult example that leads to an average 700 agg assaults by students on Phila Sch Dist personnel. That includes teachers. In the past few days, the third assault this year on a teacher occurred at Bartram HS, Phila., Pa He was knocked flat. Adults need to set the example with other adults that this can't be tolerated. Dumb comments aren't any help
Most children wouldn't behave like this. This is a result of individuals growing up on the street with poor parental guidence. Welfare epidemic. Who in their right minds would hire these women? This is a perfect example of entitlement disease. Currently, there is no cure
Mother nature has the cure. When man shirks responsibility or starts getting really stupid, he fumbles the ball and ma will intercept. That is, when the great "free stuff" state collapses the attrition rate will be enormous. It's the Darwin Award given to failed civilizations. Bitter medicine.
The problem is, I - in NO way - want to get what they deserve. Yes, the medicine is bitter, and I am taking my share. But I refuse to take another man's share.
More like no guidance, save for what they got from the public education system... as their sperm-and-egg donors (for parents they are not) handed off all responsibility for raising their young'uns so they could live the carefree party life.
Employees? Only if they're in Civil Service... reason I say that is I've been *forced* to take on employees like that, raised in that environment, and attempts to correct their discipline were smashed by their friends above me on the food chain. I did it... but it was only by going physically ballistic (great acting, only destroyed a broken desk and a fine cabinet that was slated for the trash, (tho they didn't know that) with a sledgehammer, all the while going verbally psycho on them... heh heh heh... ) that they stopped being delinquent and deficient and started being employees. I'm surprised I wasn't fired - but I think they were so petrified of me they didn't dare say a word...
My guess, however, is being in the welfare entitlement system for so long, they felt they were owed, and when someone said no, they reacted as a wild cur would when deprived of their food...
I am serious in my comments, every one. A good example is wasted on people who don't notice and don't care. There needs to be the same kind of reaction that parents have when their children behave badly - scaled up to dangerous adult level: "STOPTHIS RIGHT NOW" attack and "FUCK YOU" "I warned you." repercussion of your choice. I kinda like trials, but more like the one in Heinlein's "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress" than the "modern" kind. It should be held on the spot, a judge chosen and paid for his service by the 2 sides, evidence reviewed, sentence carried out. done.
Or the scene in the courtroom just after the trial verdict was read in H. Beam Piper's "Lone Star Planet"... I've enjoyed his writings for years (I think I have a copy of each of his books...), and the way that story resolved itself always made me smile...
Hello Susanne, I can't remember...did you recommend the "Lone Star Planet" to me in an earlier conversation (months ago)? I picked it up and read it this past summer. It was quite an enjoyable novella. Texas style justice! :) If so, thank you! O.A.
If you have a Kindle, Amazon has the "H. Beam Piper Megapack", 33 stories including "Lone Star Planet", and one of my favorites, "Little Fuzzy" for $0.99.
Sorry for the late reply. A prospector on another planet comes across? meets? finds? a small being, bipedal, tool-using. He invites it into his house, where it demonstrates various examples of intelligence: this [nut and bolt] unscrews that way, so this [plastic jar and top] does, as well. After rich deposits of a precious stone are found in the area where the Fuzzies [the prospector's name for them] seem to come from, there is a trial to determine whether or not they are animals which can be trained, or people. The determining factors for being a person are "talks and can build a fire". spoiler: Justice ensues.
Excellent catch... You can also get them separately, but 99 cents for 33 seems pretty cool!
Or if you're a sadist, you can do what I did before e-reading devices, and haunt used bookstores, secondhand stores, and spend countless hours writing letters to booksellers to buy the paperback - and occasional hardbound - copies... I have one shelf in my office with nothing but his works (including an original Murder in the Gunroom...)
Probably one of my favorites - the Lord Kalvan series. That, and well... I'll let you ask my bud, Dalla Hadron about it. --giggles--
Find (or download) a copy of it and read it - it's a fairly short read. Keep in mind it was written in the 1950's, (and it's sci-fi correspondent of the era) so it's a little, um, outlandish in places, however... when you get to that scene, when the court reopens - and, well, I won't spoil it for you.
By the way - when you start reading Piper, you realize he was *no* friend of socialists, pullmongers, or moochers...
hey, I have a question. The Catholics are reporting that tetnus vaccines given to child bearing aged girls was laced with a hormone that either made them infertile or caused them to miscarry. There needs to be independent reporting on this, but my question is: if it is true, is there any way the vaccine could have been tainted through negligence? http://www.examiner.com/article/catholic...
Interesting question, which has lead to an hour or so of intermittent research this morning. Thank you for posing it.
The answer seems to be that the vaccine, if it did contain b-HCG, is very unlikely to have had that hormone accidentally present. There is some chance that b-HCG was deliberately added for the stated purpose of birth control. (This was a major surprise to me. I had assumed that this would be just another random anti-vaccine accusation.)
It turns out that during the 1970's a combination of tetanus and b-HCG was used to induce an immunological response that prevented implantation of a blastocyst. (This makes the process technically birth control rather than contraception.) The best article on this is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immunocont....
(Aside: Remember when we had that thread about the inefficiency of a college surgically sterilizing deer? Well, the wiki article on immunocontraception shows what has been done do advance that cause.)
I think that Snopes has a good point in that 58,000 deaths occur annually from neonatal tetanus - so there is a lot of good that derives from the tetanus shot. They also point out that if there were an effective immunocontraceptive it would be a boon for the pharma companies...not something that they snuck around doing underhandedly.
So far, I am inclined to believe that the UN did introduce b-HCG to introduce an unapproved birth control measure to advance their own agenda without consent from the recipients. This would only provide a marginal and temporary decrease in the birth rate, but that might have been considered an asset since the cause-and-effect would be less obvious.
I haven't heard of this but I told you about my tetanus vaccine experience.... they blamed it on the pertussis vaccine that was mixed in with it, but damn... I couldn't move for 3 days and it messed up some of my .....girl stuff... I read later that LOTS of women had had miscarriages from it too.
I would love to hear more info on this... not that it matters to me at my age, but it would answer a lot of questions and issues I had starting a lot of years back and some that still haunt me to this day...
yea, here's teh thing...this is a catholic claim and not alot of evidence and some prior claims about vaccines in general. In this case, everyone was good on getting the vaccines administered...but.... here is an article on the other side, with some science....I say, case still open: http://scienceblogs.com/insolence/2014/1...
I'm confused. Good adults should set the example for bad acting adults to follow? And THAT'S going to fix the bad adults bad behavior some how? I don't think that's going to work. If you're talking about the teachers getting beat up by bad kids... that's because the adults in their life have set bad behavioral examples. Please clarify what you meant.
THEY must have been black. Blacks are the most arrogant people around, feeling so entitled by the government coddling of them. Obama is the worst of all, being in power and all. Putin put him in his place for sure.
I just saw this comment. I guess you missed the gentleman hero in the video, Dr. Thomas Sowell, Dr. Walter Williams, Condaleza Rice, Dr. Ben Carson, Alan Keyes, Tim Scott, Mia Love, JC Watts, Stacie Dash, Hon. Clarence Thomas, Hermain Cain...here's a link to many more Black Conservatives who definitely do NOT want government coddling anybody: http://www.ranker.com/list/republican-an...
I am not ignoring individuality, but I AM taking into account "culture" as a very strong influence on people growing up in it. My own personal experience leads me to believe that members of various cultures tend on the average to exhibit certain thinking and ways of acting. There are exceptions of course, and I am the first to acknowledge them. But there is not enough time during the day to form an opinion on each person. One must generalize to a degree, at the risk of incorrectly identifying a particular individual.
A bit of unsolicited advice: Culture is one thing and race is another. Around here you must be very careful to choose your words wisely. Even local "cultures" as you perceive them, that may in larger percentages be on welfare programs, may not be responsible for the government plantation programs that have elevated the numbers. Politicians have purchased many votes with their policies that unwittingly punish those once on the dole by actually making them poorer when they work, than when they don't. When you say, "THEY must have been black. Blacks are the most arrogant people around,..." you are making a blanket statement about an entire race. This is unfortunate, if it is your opinion based on your experience. I have lived and worked with many people of color and though there may be a large percentage in my neighboring city of Detroit that have an entitlement mentality they do not represent an entire race, nor do I feel they represent the majority of their locality. I have interacted with just as as many that do not exhibit these characteristics as do in the same zone and I have also witnessed the same among Caucasians.
Remember, one's own experience is only anecdotal and a reflection of one's limited exposure. The News, reports mostly dirty laundry and will slant one's opinion if one does not search out a wider exposure. I prefer, even if it is not efficient, to give benefit of the doubt to the majority of all races. In localities and different parts of this country as well as around the world there are vast differences, well pronounced within all races. There are of course exceptions to all. For me the exceptions are the bad players not the good.
I do not believe generalizations of this sort serve us well. That is my experience.
Ones attitudes and actions have nothing to do with race in my opinion. With so much intermarrying and such, the whole concept of race is a bit outdated. But I am definitely a culturist. I know that one has to choose words carefully because its often mistaken for "race", and being politically correct these days seems to be really important. I generally treat people all the same, and with dignity and respect, but I think that its a natural thing to attempt to categorize people in this fast moving world. There just isnt enough time to do a complete analysis on each person that one sees in the world. We categorize all the time based on our experiences. You see a lion and the immediate reaction is a defensive one. Doesn't mean you have to kill it, but it would pay to be wary of it. See a group of what looks like gang members and it pays to be wary of that too (doesnt make any difference about their "color", but it does factor into whether its more likely that they are gang members)
Wouldn't it be grand, if more people, especially the Eric Holders, Al Sharptons, Jessie Jacksons and the rioters in Ferguson saw things as Maya Angelou did?
Hello term2, I understand your apprehensions relative to gangs etc., but it will be seen as prejudice when you assert that "Blacks are the most arrogant people around..." That is assigning a characteristic to an entire ethnicity. Intended or not, it will naturally be taken as racism, as it defames an entire ethnic group. You must be clear about any distinctions between ethnicity and culture. That is all I am saying. If you had stated your case that a particular ethnicity has a larger percentage of welfare recipients statistically, and you could back it up with a study, that would be a statistical fact not a slur. For instance: Statistically mass murders are more likely to be committed by white, middle-aged men. Food for thought...
I do not do an entire analysis on each person. I assume a better nature until presented with contrary evidence regardless of color. In this fashion it requires no time. Life is too short to pre-judge and assume the worst of anyone, just like a book by its cover. Well, that is me. I hope I have been of some assistance. Respectfully, O.A.
I dont really judge based on race at all. But I do make generalizations based on culture, particularly after observing behavior. By and large, the black culture today is the most arrogant around, after having been coddled by our government. That doesnt mean each and every black person is arrogant. But its very easy to draw a conclusion based on ones own experience.
I appreciate your comments. I have been reading more of them and I wonder if it is just a matter of semantics and lack of better available terminology, as it would seem that your overall tone doesn't carry much malice... I hope so. Perhaps your initial comment that initiated so much adverse reaction was just hasty, unfortunate wording. Though, here again, I would suggest that your use of the words "Black culture" in the context you are using them should be more specifically defined. "Black culture" is not universal. What you seem to be alluding to is only a particular local phenomenon... attitudes of some within our inner city black communities. And, even then it is not justly applied to all or even to a majority of any given community. One does not know the minds of the majority. It is a few bad apples that unfortunately place a bad light on an undeserving majority. As easy as it is to "draw a conclusion based on ones own experience" if you do not question and check this appraisal against a wider context one can be lead to prejudicial, and I might add, false, premises. I cannot read your mind or judge your intent from anything but your words. Others will do the same. I would caution you to consider the ease with which the words you have chosen thus far could be construed to the detriment of your reputation and perhaps contrary to your intention. That is all I have to say. I shall leave you to the last word if you so desire, but recognize that we are all judged by our words. A word to the wise, O.A.
You're right about that, the race part is not the issue. People who act like this are putting a big sign on their foreheads that says, "I have no values, I do not respect boundaries, and I have no self respect".
Nope - make it clean, quick and over. I'm sure there's a flat spot behind the McD's that would be useful.
I remember encountering a lot of these creatures in my years in the 'hood. (Detroit)
Maybe someone should have offered them $10 to go to Burger King, which serves breakfast earlier [possibly 24 hours now].
I want to know what happened to these grown-up children. Destruction of property and assault were crimes, the last time I looked. Wait, the police were probably minutes away.....
It's apparent - these animals are spoiled... and like all spoiled goods, they should be discarded quickly and safely to protect the public health.
Goes back to FDR and some of his 'protect everyone from everything' policies and programs.
And this is what it produces.
Bleah!

"Racism is the lowest, most crudely primitive form of collectivism. It is the notion of ascribing moral, social or political significance to a man’s genetic lineage—the notion that a man’s intellectual and characterological traits are produced and transmitted by his internal body chemistry. Which means, in practice, that a man is to be judged, not by his own character and actions, but by the characters and actions of a collective of ancestors.
Racism claims that the content of a man’s mind (not his cognitive apparatus, but its content) is inherited; that a man’s convictions, values and character are determined before he is born, by physical factors beyond his control. This is the caveman’s version of the doctrine of innate ideas—or of inherited knowledge—which has been thoroughly refuted by philosophy and science. Racism is a doctrine of, by and for brutes. It is a barnyard or stock-farm version of collectivism, appropriate to a mentality that differentiates between various breeds of animals, but not between animals and men.
Like every form of determinism, racism invalidates the specific attribute which distinguishes man from all other living species: his rational faculty. Racism negates two aspects of man’s life: reason and choice, or mind and morality, replacing them with chemical predestination." Ayn Rand.
I won't/can't justify every comment to appear on this board. That would be irresponsible and I am not responsible for them. Every site has some bad apples, but I would invite you to present a story of a similar nature involving Cacucasions or any other race you desire, and chronicle the response of the majority before you condemn the entire group with your wide brush. Your comments to date suggest a bias of your own that lead one to believe you see racism under every stone. You believe yourself capable of looking into everyone's soul and determining motivation. I find that presumptuous. Until you have observed a different reaction generally from these people when the same conditions except for skin color exist I find your reasoning suspect. You comment and call racism, yet you never address any specifics. You just lay down your blanket opinion and leave it at ad-hominem. This logical fallacy does not bolster your argument.
Just because the perpetrators are of color does not excuse the actions and just because there are a disproportionate number of these stories does not indicate racist intent. It is a statistical fact that there is a disproportionate amount of mayhem/crime perpetrated by a minority in this nation. That is a fact not racism. It therefore stands to reason we will see more of them. It is largely a matter of social conditions NOT genetic. For instance, poverty is thought to be a major factor regarding crime and studies show that there has been a continual breakdown of the family unit and it is a large factor influencing behavior. More children are being born out of wedlock in broken homes. This factor has reached epidemic proportions in the black community and is also growing in the white community. See/google the studies by William Galston. Here are few links to articles that references his work and how it corresponds to poverty.

That includes teachers. In the past few days, the third assault this year on a teacher occurred at Bartram HS, Phila., Pa He was knocked flat.

Employees? Only if they're in Civil Service... reason I say that is I've been *forced* to take on employees like that, raised in that environment, and attempts to correct their discipline were smashed by their friends above me on the food chain. I did it... but it was only by going physically ballistic (great acting, only destroyed a broken desk and a fine cabinet that was slated for the trash, (tho they didn't know that) with a sledgehammer, all the while going verbally psycho on them... heh heh heh... ) that they stopped being delinquent and deficient and started being employees. I'm surprised I wasn't fired - but I think they were so petrified of me they didn't dare say a word...
My guess, however, is being in the welfare entitlement system for so long, they felt they were owed, and when someone said no, they reacted as a wild cur would when deprived of their food...
Like a mad dog, they needed to be put down.

A good example is wasted on people who don't notice and don't care.
There needs to be the same kind of reaction that parents have when their children behave badly - scaled up to dangerous adult level:
"STOPTHIS RIGHT NOW"
attack and "FUCK YOU"
"I warned you."

I kinda like trials, but more like the one in Heinlein's "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress" than the "modern" kind. It should be held on the spot, a judge chosen and paid for his service by the 2 sides, evidence reviewed, sentence carried out. done.
I can't remember...did you recommend the "Lone Star Planet" to me in an earlier conversation (months ago)? I picked it up and read it this past summer. It was quite an enjoyable novella. Texas style justice! :)
If so, thank you!

After rich deposits of a precious stone are found in the area where the Fuzzies [the prospector's name for them] seem to come from, there is a trial to determine whether or not they are animals which can be trained, or people.
The determining factors for being a person are "talks and can build a fire".

Or if you're a sadist, you can do what I did before e-reading devices, and haunt used bookstores, secondhand stores, and spend countless hours writing letters to booksellers to buy the paperback - and occasional hardbound - copies... I have one shelf in my office with nothing but his works (including an original Murder in the Gunroom...)
Probably one of my favorites - the Lord Kalvan series. That, and well... I'll let you ask my bud, Dalla Hadron about it. --giggles--

The answer seems to be that the vaccine, if it did contain b-HCG, is very unlikely to have had that hormone accidentally present. There is some chance that b-HCG was deliberately added for the stated purpose of birth control. (This was a major surprise to me. I had assumed that this would be just another random anti-vaccine accusation.)
It turns out that during the 1970's a combination of tetanus and b-HCG was used to induce an immunological response that prevented implantation of a blastocyst. (This makes the process technically birth control rather than contraception.) The best article on this is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immunocont....
On the other hand, Snopes comes down with a definite False. Their article may be found at http://www.snopes.com/medical/disease/te....
(Aside: Remember when we had that thread about the inefficiency of a college surgically sterilizing deer? Well, the wiki article on immunocontraception shows what has been done do advance that cause.)
I think that Snopes has a good point in that 58,000 deaths occur annually from neonatal tetanus - so there is a lot of good that derives from the tetanus shot. They also point out that if there were an effective immunocontraceptive it would be a boon for the pharma companies...not something that they snuck around doing underhandedly.
So far, I am inclined to believe that the UN did introduce b-HCG to introduce an unapproved birth control measure to advance their own agenda without consent from the recipients. This would only provide a marginal and temporary decrease in the birth rate, but that might have been considered an asset since the cause-and-effect would be less obvious.

A bit of unsolicited advice: Culture is one thing and race is another. Around here you must be very careful to choose your words wisely. Even local "cultures" as you perceive them, that may in larger percentages be on welfare programs, may not be responsible for the government plantation programs that have elevated the numbers. Politicians have purchased many votes with their policies that unwittingly punish those once on the dole by actually making them poorer when they work, than when they don't. When you say, "THEY must have been black. Blacks are the most arrogant people around,..." you are making a blanket statement about an entire race. This is unfortunate, if it is your opinion based on your experience. I have lived and worked with many people of color and though there may be a large percentage in my neighboring city of Detroit that have an entitlement mentality they do not represent an entire race, nor do I feel they represent the majority of their locality. I have interacted with just as as many that do not exhibit these characteristics as do in the same zone and I have also witnessed the same among Caucasians.
Remember, one's own experience is only anecdotal and a reflection of one's limited exposure. The News, reports mostly dirty laundry and will slant one's opinion if one does not search out a wider exposure. I prefer, even if it is not efficient, to give benefit of the doubt to the majority of all races. In localities and different parts of this country as well as around the world there are vast differences, well pronounced within all races. There are of course exceptions to all. For me the exceptions are the bad players not the good.
I do not believe generalizations of this sort serve us well. That is my experience.

I understand your apprehensions relative to gangs etc., but it will be seen as prejudice when you assert that "Blacks are the most arrogant people around..." That is assigning a characteristic to an entire ethnicity. Intended or not, it will naturally be taken as racism, as it defames an entire ethnic group. You must be clear about any distinctions between ethnicity and culture. That is all I am saying. If you had stated your case that a particular ethnicity has a larger percentage of welfare recipients statistically, and you could back it up with a study, that would be a statistical fact not a slur. For instance: Statistically mass murders are more likely to be committed by white, middle-aged men. Food for thought...
I do not do an entire analysis on each person. I assume a better nature until presented with contrary evidence regardless of color. In this fashion it requires no time.
Life is too short to pre-judge and assume the worst of anyone, just like a book by its cover.
Well, that is me. I hope I have been of some assistance.

As easy as it is to "draw a conclusion based on ones own experience" if you do not question and check this appraisal against a wider context one can be lead to prejudicial, and I might add, false, premises.
I cannot read your mind or judge your intent from anything but your words. Others will do the same. I would caution you to consider the ease with which the words you have chosen thus far could be construed to the detriment of your reputation and perhaps contrary to your intention.
That is all I have to say. I shall leave you to the last word if you so desire, but recognize that we are all judged by our words.
A word to the wise,
