I appreciate the way black communities value extended family. As someone who never really knew her aunts, uncles, and cousins, I really admire that.

Is this supposed to be a racist joke?

No, not at all. Extended family often plays an important role in black culture, more so than in white culture.

I mean, it's pretty self explanatory. In many, if not most black communities, parent's siblings and their children play a large role in family life. Most black people I know are close with their cousins. Not that white people never are, but it is very prominent in black communities. Any black folk on the board that can back me up on this?

Disclaimer: I don't know much about this site, it was a quick google find.

Consequently, a majority of African-American family structures are more accurately depicted as extended family units rather than single adult nuclear family units. Snapshots of households from survey studies reveal more than seventy different family structures based on the number of generations and the relationship of people living in a single house. This compares to about forty structures for whites and certainly underscores the variability of African-American family structure and the flexible roles family members typically engender (Barbarin and Soler 1993).

Sounds like some typical liberals smearing whites because whites are less likely to have multiple generations under one roof.

Fact: White = more likely to own or rent their own home. Twist that up and turn it into something that sounds bad I know, lets say whites don't care about extended family.

This isn't about good or bad or right and wrong. It's a cultural difference, the same way Mexican families tend to be matriarchal.

No one said that whites don't care about extended family.

You said black people value extended family more than in white culture (what ever that is). You base that on some study that found black people are likely to have extended family living in the home than whites.

You sure this isn't because whitey is using magic whitey powers to keep black people from having their own place, so uncles and cousins and grandmas are forced to move in? I would have thought that would be the more likely trope than "They value extended family more."

I found that article because you wanted an example. This is something documented by sociologists and people who study family units, taught in most anthropology and sociology classes, and not just by crazy lib professors either. Do you know many white people close with their cousins, as in, they hang out frequently? I don't, but it is something I've witnessed a lot in black families (there are exceptions to both, of course). No one is saying that white people don't care about extended families, just like saying Mexican families have women as the authority of the household does not mean white people don't respect their mothers. The structure is different is all.

Again, this is not a political thing. I'm not sure why you are so offended by it.

Looks like my stalker is getting posts deleted again. Good thing I copied immediately after first post.

That sux. Who is it?

No, I do not in the least. I keep my posts to the ideas I advocate. It is you who is doing the virtue signal shuffle around here. This is the third fiction you've told about me.

That you are a racist? Please! Every one on here has seen your racist post. You're saying racist things on this very thread. you are literally claiming that black people are inferior, and without white people, we couldn't survive. How is that not racist?

rac·ist
rāsst/
noun
noun: racist; plural noun: racists

1.
a person who shows or feels discrimination or prejudice against people of other races, or who believes that a particular race is superior to another.
"the comments have led to her being called a racist"

You give your life experiences, I give mine.

Yes, sometimes I do make a positive post about someone who is black. You just don't remember it, especially in my first response to you here on this thread. What I've done is respond to all the venom-at-Whites spewed on this board.

I've seen a lot of your post, and they are pretty consistent on black people.

Wonder why some many non-Whites are trying to get into those? Hmmm????

Wonder why so many whites are trying to get out of them? Hmmm????

Then you must also be riding coattails by that definition. I have White DNA (being White) as well so by your logic I am using DNA and not appearance. Basically, either both of us are using DNA or are using appearance.

I'm riding on the coattails of my blood relatives, not someone that may have looked similar to me. I'm not claiming the accomplishments of others that were no blood relation to me.

Blacks are definitely to a large extent "riding on the coattails" of Whites in this country. Clearly blacks would fall apart if they were in their own country and didn't have Whitey to deal with. Whites, on the other hand, would go back to making a decent society (best that can be had) without blacks. Whites don't need blacks to make a good country. Blacks definitely need Whites.

Some blacks would, some wouldn't, just like some whites do ok, some don't. History is definitely filled with failed white empires. But if white countries are so great, why did whites have to go to dark continents in the first place. They should've stayed in those great "white countries". I do find it strange that the most powerful "white country" on the planet needed blacks to help that happen.

There is clearly a culture that comes from different races. And much of Africa is a hell hole, hence the reason they are flooding to western nations. Rhodesia and South Africa were made good by the Whites. Turned over to blacks, they went down the toilet. Blacks in America have had a majority in many urban areas and those have gone right down hill. Blacks today are not able to claim their bad behavior is due to some ancestor living on slave plantations.

You talk about blacks fleeing hellholes, but list countries that were examples of whites fleeing white countries to make a better life. Strange. Rhodesia and South Africa were turned over to an uneducated population, that had no idea how to run things. And are you unaware of the large amount of whites that fled their white homelands to come to America for a better life?

I get the feeling you have not spent very much time traveling around Africa. Again, there are African countries with lower homicide rates than the US:

United States 3.9

Mozambique 3.7
Equatorial Guinea 3.6
Sao Tome and Principe 3.3
Liberia 3.3
Tunisia 3.1
Cameroon 2.8
Mauritius 2.7
Seychelles 2.2
Malawi 1.8
Réunion (France) 1.8
Sierra Leone 1.8
Ghana 1.7
Algeria 1.5
Morocco 1.0
Burkina Faso 0.7
Madagascar 0.6

I would rather live in several of those countries than the crap holes I saw in Eastern Europe.

You also seem to be unaware of the 100+ safe middle class black neighborhoods in the US. Just in my area

-Sandtown
-South Fulton
-Cascade
-Southwest Atlanta
-Collier Heights
-Fairburn
-Union City
-parts of College Park
-North Fayette County
-Stone Mountain
-Lithonia
-Redan
-South DeKalb
-Cedar Grove
-Panthersville
-Clarkston
-Mableton
-Fairview

The funniest part though, blacks are a part of this country till the end. Nothing you can do about that. And just 50 years out from Jim Crow, I'm not worried with the rate of progress.

You responded to me first, I am just responding back to you. And your claims do bear a strong resemblance to what Kinch does. Hence the nick name.

If you think being a cop is the same as claiming to be an award winning research physician colonel, so be it. I don't need to impress you, I'm just amazed that who I am seems unbelievable to you. Especially since I'm probably the black sheep of my family when it comes to jobs. Maybe it's more of an indicator of your environment.

Bottom line, I'm an American, and my family is a thriving American family. We have done way better than the average white American family by a long shot. My wife is Korean. When her family met my family they were blown away. Her father is my best friend now. Even her brothers are jealous of the relationship her father and I have.

I had to chuckle at you using that term.

Besides, there's also the component in your character, just like my older brother, that makes you much more of a guard dog than a sheep.

Did you ever enjoy Sam in those Warner Bros cartoons?

I can't be sure who the stalker is. I try to take note of any recurring users just after my own post, that get's deleted, thinking that might just be the one. I would bet it is someone with multiple accounts to pull off such a thing. They are the lowest around here. Kinda like the Jody MFers that you encounter in the army. Nothing lower.

I don't buy into the standard, usual definition of raysis. It is meant to be lopsided, one sided, against Whites. No obligation on my part to go along with it. So, no. I am not raysis. If I am, then everyone is.

All I do around here is tell the truth about blacks. Especially in light of the many posts around here that blacks are oppressed by Whites in general and White cops in particular. I just don't buy that narrative. Yes, my posts on blacks are consistent.

To me, the biggest problems facing blacks today are lack of employment opportunities (like all America) and the violent crime that many blacks commit against mainly other blacks. As a White the interracial crime committed by blacks against mainly Whites is what concerns me (as a White).

I've never claimed accomplishment of those not blood related. Or blood related for that matter. I have, however, noticed the differences of the two races and have taken note that Whites can create a decent enough society and blacks cannot. In a city. In a country. Not even a continent. Africa is a very dangerous place to go.

You are the one who first gave your biography, not me. You were clearly dropping names of others who accomplished something and as if it reflected well on yourself. Not me. I just claimed those things about you had nothing to do with the points I was making. I left out the personal because, a) it is not some breath taking accomplishment, meaning world famous or adulatory and b) it can be easily faked and therefore not worth saying. I live a very private and anonymous existence. And perfectly happy with it.

That definition is universal, and can be applied to anyone of any race.

All I do around here is tell the truth about blacks. Especially in light of the many posts around here that blacks are oppressed by Whites in general and White cops in particular. I just don't buy that narrative. Yes, my posts on blacks are consistent.

Black cops do not get a break. Several of the recent shootings involved black officers, and people protested all over the country. And the hate black cops get from the black community is on another level. Not so much with the white community.

To me, the biggest problems facing blacks today are lack of employment opportunities (like all America) and the violent crime that many blacks commit against mainly other blacks. As a White the interracial crime committed by blacks against mainly Whites is what concerns me (as a White).

Of course the majority of the crimes committed against blacks are by blacks, and the majority of the crimes committed against whites are whites. That's why you as a white American are 6.5 times more likely to be murdered by another white person.

I've never claimed accomplishment of those not blood related. Or blood related for that matter. I have, however, noticed the differences of the two races and have taken note that Whites can create a decent enough society and blacks cannot. In a city. In a country. Not even a continent. Africa is a very dangerous place to go.

Like you, I didn't pick the family, country, or "race" that I was born to. But I' am fascinated by all of the the people and circumstances that have created me. The Irish, Scottish, English, Spanish, Puerto Rican, Native American, West and Central African blood lines that run through my veins. People thinking In inferior in anyway, has probably the biggest factor in my success.

On the Africa thing, I don't believe you've traveled very much through Africa. Again, Africa has quit a few countries that are in fact safer than most Western European countries, and even the US. You saying otherwise doesn't change this. Anyone that has spent a significant amount of time in these countries, and the Geneva Declaration on Armed Violence and Development, and United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime disagree with you.

You are the one who first gave your biography, not me. You were clearly dropping names of others who accomplished something and as if it reflected well on yourself. Not me. I just claimed those things about you had nothing to do with the points I was making. I left out the personal because, a) it is not some breath taking accomplishment, meaning world famous or adulatory and b) it can be easily faked and therefore not worth saying. I live a very private and anonymous existence. And perfectly happy with it.

We have different posting styles then. I don't really post on things that I don't have personal experience with, or I at least don't claim to be an expert.

I have been making post on here for ten years, and let it be known that I was a cop, before all of the cop hate. Either way, I have not given away anything that would endanger my privacy, or my family. I had a social media audit during my last promotion, and had no problems. I'm perfectly happy with my posting history. This site, and a few LEO/military boards are the only places I really post. There are a couple of posters here that I am quite fond of, and converse with off this board. I will miss this place, now that they are shutting it down.

There are a over a 1,000 other black cops in this city, with very similar backgrounds/occupations. In fact that's what is annoying about the way bigots classify us.

I'm actually glad that you are making these post. In the other thread, where a poster asked why more blacks don't vote republican, I was having a great conversation with a poster, and you are the exact type of poster that I was trying to describe to him. Of course that is the same thread where you posted: "Dems offered blax free gubmint cheese/stuff. Simple as that. Oh, and criminalized White people's freedom of association and passed that off as civil rights".

I have voted for Republicans many times, and I think some Republican platforms would help out a lot of blacks, just as they do whites. But I remember asking him to think of how I feel trying to argue political issues of the same side as someone like you. Even though we may think similarly on 80% of political issues, I don't want to be on the side of someone that that thinks like you, and I know you would never be on my side. Of well. Have a good one.

Oh God, no. No way. That word is only applied to Whites, never to blacks. I don't know what world you are living in to think such.

Black cops do not get a break. Several of the recent shootings involved black officers, and people protested all over the country. And the hate black cops get from the black community is on another level. Not so much with the white community.

Yes, I can imagine the attitude that black cops get from the black community.

But I do notice that on a societal level the White cop is the one always singled out as the arch abuser of black civilians. I've been hearing that more black civilians are killed/harmed by black cops than by White cops.

Of course the majority of the crimes committed against blacks are by blacks, and the majority of the crimes committed against whites are whites. That's why you as a white American are 6.5 times more likely to be murdered by another white person.

All true. But it is also true that blacks commit way more interracial crime against Whites than the other way around. As well as crime against anyone, for any reason. Plus, that "6.5 times more likely" could very well be because another black is the only victim available to the black criminal. Just a matter of opportunity.

Africa is still a dangerous place. CIA Factbook says so. State Dept warns against it. I think the British Foreign Office as well. There is no doubt that it has much instability. Eastern Europe's is due to the political flux it is in. This gives its black market so much power. Once that has "shaken itself" out, those cultures/societies will settle down to normality/stability.

I, myself, never give my biography the way you do because it doesn't prove anything in and of itself plus the fact that it is so easy to claim thus and so. I like posting here to get across the ideas, despite whatever words I've used. As far as that thread asking why blacks vote largely Democrat (and no good results for blacks so far) the sentences I spoke that you quoted here are right on target. Transfer of wealth from whoever creates it (we know it is largely Whites) to blacks and the so-called civil rights, which is nothing more than criminalization of White's freedom of association. This euphemizing what it really is accomplishes the goal of making Whites look the villain and blacks the innocent oppressed victim. When it isn't that way.

I'll say it again, the worst problem for blacks as a group is the large amount of crime. Crime against each other that has to stop before any other good (financial, economic, etc) can be achieved. Anyone and their brother can clearly see this. But getting blacks and other LEFTISTs here on this site to admit that is like squeezing blood out of a turnip.

Next problem is the lack of productivity endemic to blacks as a group. Very little creation of new product or service, and very little employability. A lot of the employment of blacks is due to vicious "civil rights" discrimination laws, not hiring on merit.

There are plenty of black racist, and black racist groups, and they are labeled as such. In fact, just this week Vice TV did a show featuring the black racist group "Black Israelites".

Yes, I can imagine the attitude that black cops get from the black community.

But I do notice that on a societal level the White cop is the one always singled out as the arch abuser of black civilians. I've been hearing that more black civilians are killed/harmed by black cops than by White cops.

Blacks only make up around 11% of law enforcement, but make up 50% of the officers that are murdered each year. There is not outcry over this either. Big deal.

All true. But it is also true that blacks commit way more interracial crime against Whites than the other way around. As well as crime against anyone, for any reason. Plus, that "6.5 times more likely" could very well be because another black is the only victim available to the black criminal. Just a matter of opportunity.

Well of course it's mostly about opportunity, and proximity. If I walk into a room to pick pocket someone, and there are 8 green people, and two red, colorism isn't why I make my choice. Victimized is victimized. Why is it better for you to be victimized by a white than a black? Why are you more focused on the group that is least likely to victimize you?

Africa is still a dangerous place. CIA Factbook says so. State Dept warns against it. I think the British Foreign Office as well. There is no doubt that it has much instability.

OK, we'll continue to look at Africa as a whole, and not point out those African countries that are obviously safer than the US.

UNODC murder rates, most recent year:

Americas 16.3 157,000
Africa 12.5 135,000

Strange that a place with fewer blacks would have a higher homicide rate.

This euphemizing what it really is accomplishes the goal of making Whites look the villain and blacks the innocent oppressed victim. When it isn't that way.

Understood. We have different posting styles. OK? I definitely reach a wide audience with my style.

The funny part is, I doubt your household contributes more tax dollars than mine. You do know African Americans pay taxes as well? Again, we have 1.1 trillion dollars of annual spending power, and give away 25 percent more of our income per year to charity than whites. We contribute enough financially to make up for the blacks that don't.

The W.K. Kellogg Foundation released a study in 2012 showing that African-Americans give a larger share of their income to charities than any other group.

African Americans tend to give most to causes that have the most impact on their lives, with education, youth projects, health-related causes, and civic engagement at the top of the list,

I'll say it again, the worst problem for blacks as a group is the large amount of crime. Crime against each other that has to stop before any other good (financial, economic, etc) can be achieved.

I hate to "name drop" again, but since I happen to be black, and have spent a considerable amount of time in "black" neighborhoods, families, churches, community centers etc., it's obvious to me that you have not.

Again, only 20% of black Americans live in ghettos now. The amount of progress made since Jim Crow is amazing. We are making real progress in the crime situation too. Look at where we are:

And after 50 years of all these terrible changes in American culture? Todays young African Americans display the lowest rates of crime and serious risk of any generation that can be reliably assessed.

In the last 20 years in particular, the FBI reports, rates of crime among African American youth have plummeted: All offenses (down 47%), drug offenses (down 50%), property offenses (down 51%), serious Part I offenses (down 53%), assault (down 59%), robbery (down 60%), all violent offenses (down 60%), rape (down 66%), and murder (down 82%).

As far as merit is concerned, I guess nepotism, and good old boy networking was never a thing. Exactly who is hiring people that are not qualified for the job? Government jobs don't count. For the people by the people will have different requirements than you are comfortable facing. For instance, looking at demographics, a city might do well to have a white lesbian as there chief of police. Or ethnically Hispanic.

I know a lot of business owners, and none of them are trying to hire less qualified people. Of course there is not shortage of people who get let down easy, and told, "you tested better, but we had to hire someone else". Bullsh!t. That may be an easy let down, but no one ever let's you see all of the test scores. And they just may need a female for a different customer base. A lot more goes into hiring someone to represent you business than just a test. Some of you guys just don't understand how the modern world works. Oh well.

There are plenty of black racist, and black racist groups, and they are labeled as such. In fact, just this week Vice TV did a show featuring the black racist group "Black Israelites".

That still doesn't change the fact that the narrative going on in this society through its three principle cultural institutions (academia, news, entertainment) is that raysis only applies to Whites. And remember, on this board, going back the few years I've been here, many posters/users have declared that only Whites can/could be raysis.

Blacks only make up around 11% of law enforcement, but make up 50% of the officers that are murdered each year. There is not outcry over this either. Big deal.

Yes, and let's not forget that even more black civilians are killed by other black civilians than black cops are killed by black civilians. But you'll never hear much of anything about it. It doesn't fit the narrative that blacks are hunted/abused/ by Whites, especially the White cops. If those black cops you mentioned had been, to any degree, killed by Whites it would be ballyhooed to the heavens by the MSM, academia and Hollywood.

Well of course it's mostly about opportunity, and proximity. If I walk into a room to pick pocket someone, and there are 8 green people, and two red, colorism isn't why I make my choice. Victimized is victimized. Why is it better for you to be victimized by a white than a black? Why are you more focused on the group that is least likely to victimize you?

If black criminals have a regular/frequent choice of races as their victim, they seem to go after other races instead of their own. They are principally murdering, raping, assaulting and robbing other blacks because that is the only realistic choice as their victim.

Understood. We have different posting styles. OK? I definitely reach a wide audience with my style.

The funny part is, I doubt your household contributes more tax dollars than mine. You do know African Americans pay taxes as well?

We contribute enough financially to make up for the blacks that don't.

You are probably right about the contribution of tax dollars, I would suppose so. Yes.

But it doesn't change the fact that blacks are largely, as a group, economic basket cases. Much of the employment they do have is through affirmative action programs, laxer entrance requirements for many certain jobs. Known fact. Blacks, as a group, in America would be even worse off than they are now if not for the presence/activities of Whites. Undoubtedly.

I hate to "name drop" again, but since I happen to be black, and have spent a considerable amount of time in "black" neighborhoods, families, churches, community centers etc., it's obvious to me that you have not.

That might make you more knowledgeable about mannerisms of blacks on the street or some such. But everyone across America knows that crime is a rampant problem among blacks and lack of economic ability is the other one.

As far as merit is concerned, I guess nepotism, and good old boy networking was never a thing. Exactly who is hiring people that are not qualified for the job? Government jobs don't count. For the people by the people will have different requirements than you are comfortable facing. For instance, looking at demographics, a city might do well to have a white lesbian as there chief of police. Or ethnically Hispanic.

Gov't jobs do count, because the gov't does have affirmative action policies. I've seen them, inside the military and in civil service. Many unqualified or under qualified blacks are hired over others so as to keep the workforce a certain percentage black. Everyone everywhere has observed this. Goes back to the 1970s.

I know a lot of business owners, and none of them are trying to hire less qualified people. Of course there is not shortage of people who get let down easy, and told, "you tested better, but we had to hire someone else". Bullsh!t. That may be an easy let down, but no one ever let's you see all of the test scores. And they just may need a female for a different customer base. A lot more goes into hiring someone to represent you business than just a test. Some of you guys just don't understand how the modern world works. Oh well.

It isn't bullshyte. It is true. Many have observed it. It happens in all gov't employment, military or otherwise. Entrance requirements are lowered to accommodate blacks and Hispanics. Race norming that I've mentioned previously is undoubtedly at work. Same for gov't promotions. All true in the civilian world, too.

During Obama's tenure, we remember those fireman (somewhere in New England) who filed court cases for being passed over for promotion so that blacks could be chosen. Went all the way to the US Supr Ct. But anyway, that is one case among many across America showing affirmative action at all levels of gov't is going on.

Some of us do realize how the gov'ts, especially fed gov't work; they say one thing but are doing another. Ridiculous hypocrisy.

That still doesn't change the fact that the narrative going on in this society through its three principle cultural institutions (academia, news, entertainment) is that raysis only applies to Whites. And remember, on this board, going back the few years I've been here, many posters/users have declared that only Whites can/could be raysis.

Many posters say things like you, but that doesn't make it correct.

Yes, and let's not forget that even more black civilians are killed by other black civilians than black cops are killed by black civilians. But you'll never hear much of anything about it. It doesn't fit the narrative that blacks are hunted/abused/ by Whites, especially the White cops. If those black cops you mentioned had been, to any degree, killed by Whites it would be ballyhooed to the heavens by the MSM, academia and Hollywood.

Who forgets this? Are you complaining about the white owned media that doesn't focus on the outcry, and efforts spent on black on black in black communities? It's sheer ignorance not to know this. Again, anyone that has spent any real time in a "black" church, school, community center, or even barbershop knows this.

Only a moron would believe that black Americans are content watching a generation of their young people self destruct. Only a moron thinks black Americans are OK with the daily shootings in the historically poor black neighborhoods. The people that live there are in constant fear that an errant bullet might come crashing through their bedroom window or, that one day their own child might not make it home. Just because the media would rather focus their attention on other race baiting issues, some morons are clueless as to how much effort has been put into dealing with black on black crime.

Black Americans, more than anyone, want to see an end to the shootings, regardless of who pulls the trigger. And effort, by the black community has cut the numbers in half in less than one generation.

If black criminals have a regular/frequent choice of races as their victim, they seem to go after other races instead of their own. They are principally murdering, raping, assaulting and robbing other blacks because that is the only realistic choice as their victim.

Uhh, no. Generally criminals go after the easiest targets, with the most payoff, and least risk. It is extremely rare that a professional criminal would pick someone because of race. That's just ridiculous. And I deal with criminals every day.

You are probably right about the contribution of tax dollars, I would suppose so. Yes.

But it doesn't change the fact that blacks are largely, as a group, economic basket cases. Much of the employment they do have is through affirmative action programs, laxer entrance requirements for many certain jobs. Known fact. Blacks, as a group, in America would be even worse off than they are now if not for the presence/activities of Whites. Undoubtedly.

What whites? And how are those any different from the productive citizens that are non-white? Are these the exact same "whites" that created this situation that you keep complaining about. Who's responsible for this? Sh!t dude. Maybe you should be mad at your ancestors for leaving their "white countries", and creating this mess that landed you here. Blacks were 20% of this country from the start. We have a lot of skin in this game. Not to mention that a lot of us are the blood descendants of many of the (white)people that "built" this country. We're not going anywhere.

You keep deluding yourself into thinking you're part of some group that is supporting my group, and it's hilarious. It must suck for you to feel so out of control. Meanwhile, I'm walking out the door in a minute to work, and I'm wondering when I'm going to get that white check from you.

That might make you more knowledgeable about mannerisms of blacks on the street or some such. But everyone across America knows that crime is a rampant problem among blacks and lack of economic ability is the other one.

That makes me more knowledgeable about everything black. Including how rampant, or how much it has gone down. You're just going of of biased ill-informed media sources. I, on the other hand, will be working shooting detail tonight. I will have in front of me that statistics for the last 25 years. I know exactly what's going on.

Gov't jobs do count, because the gov't does have affirmative action policies. I've seen them, inside the military and in civil service. Many unqualified or under qualified blacks are hired over others so as to keep the workforce a certain percentage black. Everyone everywhere has observed this. Goes back to the 1970s.

And I've seen many less qualified whites, females, etc.. hired, unless they brought something else to the table. It's amazing you haven't seen the slew of white fckups out there working, that obviously are not qualified for the job. Lord knows I see it every day in law enforcement. Some of these people have no business being deployed in these very same neighborhoods that you are talking about above. Those "qualification" don't do sh!t to help them navigate the community that they are working in. That's what you fail to see about "qualifications". But hey, I see pretty people, tall people, and relatives in positions all the time that may not be the most "qualified". I've been to real "white countries" and have seen the same thing. Welcome to the real world.

It isn't bullshyte. It is true. Many have observed it. It happens in all gov't employment, military or otherwise. Entrance requirements are lowered to accommodate blacks and Hispanics. Race norming that I've mentioned previously is undoubtedly at work. Same for gov't promotions. All true in the civilian world, too.

Some of us do realize how the gov'ts, especially fed gov't work; they say one thing but are doing another.

Of course it went to court. BECAUSE IT IS ILLEGAL.. But why bother going around in circles with you. I've seen you bogging other posters down in this same type of circular debate.

Look, it must suck for you that your white government is fcking you over so bad. What's wrong with white people? Meanwhile, I've got to go take advantage of these quotas ya'll are always talking about. I'm working in a majority black city, with a majority black police force, that just had a white lesbian appointed as the chief of police. Damn that racist black mayor and city hall! Meanwhile our crime and homicide rate is down 60% in under a decade.
