Good, so we are all in favor of Blacks continuing to struggle to eliminate racism, and we are all in on helping them to do that, right?
I've spent plenty of time helping them do it, but therein lies the problem. Every race that's immigrated to the US has taken it upon themselves to assimilate and EARN respect. Every race but one did it within 15-20 years. Why is it one specific race demands it be given to them without doing anything to show they deserve respect?
Can you please answer the following questions:
1. When will black stop committing crime at a rate 5x the rest of the population?
2. When will the race hustlers tell their people they need to change their behavior and earn respect rather than demanding it?
3. When will black people stop making excuses for their plight and blaming whitey when government most of corporate America has bent over backwards to help them out?
4. When will the ghetto stop teaching young blacks you're not a man until you've spent time in prison?
5. When will black people take it upon themselves to be responsible for their own actions?
I've said it here before and I'll say it again. As long as one group is favored over another there will be racism. Just as an example, take a married white forklift driver with 2 kids out of work for 9 mos who just applied for an opening with a Fortune 500 company that has a plant in a small town in southern Ohio. He has a license in 4 of the 7 forklift classes and 12 years of experience. A black man with 1.5 years of experience and a license in 2 of the 7 classes applies. The white man doesn't have a snowballs chance in hell of getting the job. Then you wonder why there's racism. How do you think that white man feels when he doesn't know if his kids will eat tomorrow?
And talk about racism, how about a white man applying for a job at a black owned business? I've seen what that looks like.
Of course people like you will say that isn't happening, but I've seen it constantly over my 25 year career and much worse. I've been told 3x by recruiters I was the best candidate, but they had to hire a minority. I've had my own HR dept. tell me I had to hire a minority. I've watched hundreds of people hired for low level positions that don't require a degree, or even a HS education and watched Asians, Hispanics, Arabs, many of whom couldn't even speak English when they started, work their way up into a management position that pays very good, and watch their kids go to Law School, Medical School, Pharmacy School, yet watch 95% of blacks walk off the job in 2 weeks. In fact, I've had probably 10% walk off the job at the first break, telling me this is too hard.
If it's not too hard for Asians, Hispanics and Arabs why is it too hard for blacks? And after I've done my best to try to help them out. Can you tell me that?
Of course a white person growing up in privilege being able to go to Law School and working in your Law Office bubble don't have a clue what real blue collar America is like. And that's where 70-80% of the people in this country live, not in the 2% where you live.
