The poster who tells us that police need to be able to rough up the violent urban negro mocking black lives matter is pretty appropriate for this thread.

Any organization involved that wanted to gather some public admiration would jump at the chance.

You know, unless they don't like money. I guess it is a more reasonable conclusion that these organizations don't like money. Yep. That must be it. They aren't guilty of discrimination, they are guilty of being commies.

How can a company prove they aren't being racist in their loans when there are so many factors for loans and there is no real evidence to prove incorrect.

I'm not sure how true it is, but I've heard African-Americans and young people lose their job and/or are unable to find a job at a much higher rates than the population because of minimum wage. So disparate impact suggests all liberals are racist and ageist?

Lol at your ongoing quest to call the minimum wage racist. Particularly in the context of your other posts in this thread. Lol Man are you an uneducated idiot.

Neither black lives matter nor all lives matter are statements which need correction. Responding to one with the other, however, does show a need to correct understanding about both/either of them.

Quoted for spank making a succinct and effective argument. Nice.

Here's the other type of example that's going around.

Black guy discovers he's getting paid half the wage of his colleagues.

Black guy: "Whoah. Black people should get paid fairly "

Boss: everyone should get paid properly

Black guy: "?? Of course, that's the ****ing point dick head. When are you going to pay me"

Boss: "all salaries matter"

That is patently untrue. The process lenders use in real life is exceptionally simple.

However, if I have a 483,689 step process to determine loan rates, I can show that process. I'd do so happily to avoid allegations of wrong doing.

What you have heard is incorrect. Raising minimum wage has no effect on employment prospects for the young or the brown.

Charter schools, turnaround schools and small schools are all experiments meant to improve education for mostly poor, minority kids. But there's one thing nobody tries anymore, despite a lot of evidence that it works- desegregation. This week, Nikole Hannah-Jones looks at a district in Missouri that, just a few years ago, accidentally launched a desegregation program. It's the first of a two-part series.

We mustn't let the idiots distract us from the value of the hypothetical.

Disparate impact hasn't made loans were racist, it's deciding the company that made the loans was racist. So if a company managed to achieve a disparate outcome from implementing the minimum wage that company would be racist not the minimum wage.

You would have to go a big step further and show that the minimum wage was inherently racist i.e couldn't realistically be implemented without a disparate impact, was intended to have a disparate impact etc.

Bahbah is precisely the kind of low iq racist idiot that you love to muse wistfully with for hundreds of posts chez. Knock yourself out, maybe this conversation with a racist will be the one that changes how the politics forums treat racists.

Hate to break it to you, but being called deficient by the SMP shut-ins...not exactly a scarlet letter.

You guys aren't called shut-ins because of post count Fold'n, but the fact you can't figure that out is kind of the point.

Not exactly racist, but related....

Bruce Fans already thought that because they love racists so much for no apparent reason.

MLK is an example of person who loved racists and for reasons and knowledge which are connected in philosophical humanism, science, and religion.

That post is like the work of Wiley Coyote. What's the plan? Bomb people with ACME products until they stop loving other people?

Love is The Roadrunner.

He called me a shut in, and I pointed out he spents much more time banging away on the internet than I do. Not sure which is the insult, but I didn't mean to bother you.

It doesn't matter who the insult was intended for, it's a weak insult, surely signs of a moran who needs to shut up more.

I know how to read dumb****. If you don't want people responding to your posts don't put them on the internet. Most people figure that out rather quickly...
