When your average IQ is 70, you know why and how this group can easily be lead around by the nose. Read the literature and the book, The Bell Curve. You can’t comment on it, because it is not politically correct. It is what it is and truth is truth.




samtheyank: Scientist keep coming back to Charles Murray's works! It's been proven if you originated in the Sub Sahara region you did not inherit the Neanderthal gene; which according to Murray put you at a 20% disadvantage with the rest of the world. However when that Sub Sahara region mixed and propagated their off spring had no problem with IQ!...The problem seems to be the lack of assimilation!

I'm confused, General Lee no longer commanded the Army of Virginia? I've never seen the statue, but was still under the impression that Lee was involved in the civil war.

I don't give a hoot about statues either way, they don't really mean anything unless one is an idol worshiper, but if that's your thing, so be it. Flags, statues, and other stuff like that are symbols. For some, the symbols are positive, or others....not so much, but they're still just symbols. It is the underlying beliefs that may be argued about, but arguing about the symbols is counterproductive.

Why don't we all rally around the old Stars and Stripes, and leave all those other silly symbols alone?

Yes, rally round the flag and while removing statues (icons) let's not forget that hideous monstrosity in DC. MLKing. I havent seen it but 'twas told by a democrat that it is huge and horrible.
