Ed you are living in a fantasy land...it's nothing to do with their skin color it's because of their actions.

Are we supposed to look the other way and say they can't help it it's just in their Genes.

Given opportunity blacks will all loot and steal or like Keith said at least applaud from the sidelines those doing it.

All those marching are just as guilty as the ones that set the fires and looted until we face that reality the marching, looting and burning will continue.

Whoa, where did that come from. What's your problem. Do you have facts to back that up.

Never mind, I feel that I think I've found it. 'One of your manipulative techniques here is to make claims about others, without facts to back them up. to me that is dishonest'. Hmm, jus cuz ya say hits so, gain n a gain makes ya feel like hits so.

There should be more smiles than grimaces---back to the thread, where we're headed?---because for all the racist and misogynic language---Americans are benefitting from what they fought so hard to get rid of 50 years ago.

Ninety-five per cent approve of interracial marriage---only 17 per cent in '68. Same percentage say yes they'd vote for a "qualified" black president; less than half said yes 50 years ago. Qualifier noted.

Black voter turnout now 67 per cent, three points higher than white. Nearly identical graduation rates. All the while health and education gaps have narrowed sharply. Something to be proud of, to celebrate.

One would be deaf, dumb and blind not to see a greater moral sensibility.

If moral sensibility is so clear and easy to see, why not join the folks that you demonize as 'racist and misogynic'. Shouldn't race baiters be criticized for content and tactics, rather than given pc cover for inciting violence and racial divide because of the color of their skin.

I prefer to encourage and recognize good where I see it rather than reinforce ignorance in these matters. Race baiters will always be with us, as are Misfires' hard cases.

A case could be made that calling folks racists and misogynists is hardly encouraging. Yes, there are race baiters of all stripes. I was thinking primarily of a pres, atgen, a mayor and governor or two. Still, it's apparent that a leader of all citizens can be immune from criticism for content of a message and delivery tactics.

Are you sure that you have correctly labeled Misfires' hard cases. Could it be that the truth about the new racial division push requires complicit liberal followers who refuse to question.

craig: you use a lotta words, but you say little.

Craig, your message is freighted with supposition and old grievances. I referred to racist and misogynic language, not persons. I didn't label Misfires' hard cases for reasons given above. I don't know of a "truth about the new racial division push" nor am I interested in "truths" bandied so carelessly here. I had my say about the extraordinary diminishing of the racial divide in your wonderful country, and prefer to leave it there.

I hear you King. Please consider that I had responded to make my point, not to bother you.

I'm for everyone making their point, Craig. It seemed you were taking liberties with mine. No hard feelings.

Ducks are here in the millions. Hoping cold weather sends them down to you.

Talking to grain farmer the other day, mentioned geese. "Don't say that word," he said. "They're rats with feathers."
