....I still believe you can become anything you want to become in this country.

I'm not too far off from you on this one. It certainly starts with having parents and peers who are living sensibly.

And to that end, we can each in our own way be either a sensible parent, a sensible community peer, or both - thus improving the people and the world around us

Are you some sort of (under) paid blogger for these sites? You seem to have URL's at the ready, but when pressed to speak for yourself, you stumble, or in this case, you paste a big list of links.

So are you trying to get into school but can't because of discrimination? Were you unable to use a water fountain because it said "no whitey"?

Any non link examples of how you're missing out on rights and opportunities at this stage of your life?

Get into school?...Im 51 years old & graduated HS & when I got done with school in 75 I said no more school ever again....Im not old enough to remember black/white drinking fountains ect but Im tired of hearing about things that happened many many many moons ago....No Im not paid by any sites but merely to educate & inform so you younger guys can understand a few things better... You'll find out later on in the real world if you don't catch on now.....Take care.

This is why I think this could end very badly for America because of that mentality.

The larger reason this may end badly, IMHO, is the mentality that most people do what they do for themselves. Many of Obama's plans revolve around the idea of "service to others/America" (a sort of Star Trek - "the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the one"). Americans wanting to help out their neighbor or pitch in for those in need. Think that is a tough sell, even in good times, and almost impossible in these economic times. NIMBY is the new American acronym, don't ya know.

Perhaps all the brothers and Hispanics crowded him out of English class back in the day. He's posted before that "English class is for girls and sissies".

And you can be sure RR is not being paid to make internet posts or he would take his opinions to a venue a bit bigger and a bit more challenging than dropping into a Sports Handicapping PoliticalPub frequented by a couple dozen people.

Perhaps I should be paid....Immigration thread getting about 2,000 hits a week now.... A few more than just a few frequent this politics forum BM...Many many more read than post.. Give the site more credit youre on the payroll......When I get the spelling/punctuation police I say get real & think bigger thats all no harm done.

Mgawd! I knew that you bumped that damn thing up a lot but 2000 times a month?

No I dont bump it up unless it's a new post...I counted 2,000 hits last week & Im kind of proud of that it's a record but I know I'll never catch up to eek & the sell sell sell thread.

Shit what do you think got us in this shit economy. Everyone wanted to feel good and say it's a "right" to own a house. LOL see what happens when entitlements come in to play.



NO MORE EXCUSES.

Stop selling crack.
Stop the driveby shootings.
Stop going to jail.
Stop making babies.

That list looks pretty simple to me. How hard can it be to not do what I listed.

Oh yeah pick up a damn garbage bag put the trash in it.

To better understand the traffic in any particular forum or thread, you have to break down the Views/Posts ratio.

Each person who posts in a thread presumably revisits the thread after an average of two others post.

So in the case of the Anti-Immigration thread, we see a 35x1 ratio for Views/Posts. That's (average) about eight people reading the thread, offering a post and then revisiting to see what the other seven had to say.

All good. Any thread that attracts seven or more frequent visitors is helpful to the RxForum bottom line traffic stats

I call bullshit on this "statistic". No way 33% of all black men are currently in jail.

In Indiana the black population is approximately 21%
The Indiana State Prison Population is 78% black

that is a fact!

And that backs up the 33% national claim...how?

Not sure if the covers all inmates in Indiana or not - but I don't see any group at the 78% mark in it

How about just call him your president? Why the need for the qualifier?

I agree! But it seems that all of the black americans that elected him, along with the media want the qualifier. Also, that qualifier is the leading reason that he is president.
