Why can't you look at things objectively? I mean, if you dropped a swedish person who spoke swedish in the middle of NYC, would he do better or worse in America than a young black female who could speak English? When the Irish came over they were discriminated against. So were the italians. What group of people werent? You think whites just hate people with darker skin than theirs? How come people from India have the highest incomes of all groups in the united States?
Yes, I understand that the situation is different for blacks because of the history of slavery, but at some point there has to be work done on both sides. I don't see why you can't understand it all can't just come from one side. It just doesn't work that way. I would argue assimilation is the most important factor in making the situation better but I will not tell a group of people what they should do. What I will say is it seems any group of people that is here that doesn't assimilate tends to not do so well. That seems to be a constant.

The popular vote does mean Wil, it means there is no mandate for Trumps populist crap. When he talks about the size of his victory and tries to use it to justify the draconian legislation he wants to pass everyone gets to call him out for his bull****.
I don't even know what this means. Are you saying Trump's presidency doesn't mean anything? I mean, he's the one with the pen in his hand signing stuff.
