The bigger the storm the more people who will watch. That's what the reporters are after, attention, and ratings. Jerry Springer knew and knows where the money is. Who do we blame for all this. US!! WE ARE THE ONES WHO REWARD THE MUCK RAKERS AND SHOUTERS. Will we change? NO!
I.Q. has no meaning when discussing groups, only with individuals. There is no doubt differences between races. But we hire individuals. We befriend others as individuals. In all racial groups there are the morons, average, highly intelligent. Now here is the trick. We must be able to call a black fool a fool, a white one the same, amd the same with the brown. Racism is refusing to see the good and bad because we are afraid what THEY might say.
To me a racist is someone who approaches other people (Races) with a fixed agenda, pro or con. If you make the claim that all people are the same, you are a racist. If you say all people of a particular race are dumb, less, of no value, you are a racist.
To say a race has certain tendencies while at the same time recognizing that each is different is fine. That makes you a realist. I try to form my opinions of others according to their individual skills, not by their skin color, but that is not easy to do. Let's face it. We all carry baggage. I suppose people of good will, using common sense, keep trying and do their best to be fair and balanced. But these professional liberals and full time conservative activists make it hard to talk about anything. If you open your mouth and say something against one of the party lines, BOOM, here come the taunts and name calling.
We the people will either start taking the conversation away from the paid hacks and troublemakers or they will continue to divide and destroy. It's all about money and power, always has been, always will.
If the average I.Q. of a particular race is a bit less we must be able to say so, and not hide behind racism. Political correctness won't make anyone smarter or better. Of course as I have said we must recognize that the individual may be totally different than the average of his race. Each person is unique and represents himself alone, not an entire group. We find diamonds in the ground. We just have to sift through all that dirt.
