Another race attack at top university

Thanks for trying :) But trying to argue with an idiot doesn't hold much fascination for me :)

He's got you stumped. Anyone can see that. You now stoop to smugness. I see what you did there. Now please stop the name calling & leave this thread alone as it doesn't "fascinate" you anymore. Please comment once again if you manage to develop reason & the ability to debate without descending into the junior playground mindset you so proudly display here.

No, that is me expressing my opinion, not me professing to represent every white person in the country. My interpretation of the situation described in the article. I was quite clear, so you're either clutching at straws or trolling.

Then you need to work on your communication because it reads very much like you speaking on behalf of white people. At no point did you say it was your opinion, or that it was just soem of the white people that you had met. Instead you simply stated that white people want to live with people of the same race.

Being a racist seems like a pretty bad thing to me. Negative feelings towards someone simply because of the melanin content of his/her skin is pretty darn irrational.

Agreed it is just as irrational as being a homophobe and religiousphobe.

Agreed. I don't think I hate anyone but if I were going to I'd like to think I'd do it on an individual basis for rational reasons (the guy raped my daughter or something). Hating an entire group simply because they are black or Buddhist or bisexual or something is indefensible.

Drunkard #1 making baseless claims and then shifting the burden of proof onto others? Wow, I am shocked, I have never seen that happen before :rolleyes:

Then please roll your eyes onto parliament

/resists the urge to swear & insult thus stooping to the same level.

It's crystal clear in this case though. He's made no pretence either in here or in other threads about his stance on race.

His honesty is actually a little refreshing. Sets him apart from the closet racists on MyBB :p

Another racist idiot I don't have to deal with :)

Is everyone that disagrees with you an idiot?



These should get you started:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_and_intelligence
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incarceration_in_the_United_States
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Bell_Curve
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nations_and_intelligence

All the evidence (for and against) is nicely summarised with links to every statistic you could want.

The Bell Curve was pretty widely criticized and discredited for being published in white supremacy literature.

But despite that there is an inherent cultural bias in intelligence tests (WAIS and the like). Linguistic and environmental barriers mean that the candidate may not have experienced a phenomenon (like asking someone in S.A to describe or label snow), so you can never have an actual measurement of IQ until a test is acclimatized to different circumstances.

Just an example: the current version of WAIS requires blocks be formed into the shape of a sail ship; but it may be easier for an individual who recognizes the image to recreate it rather than someone who just see's it as a random shape.

Stats101: Done (a few time actually - School, Wits, UNISA), so no, I don't need to be reminded of my stats course. I never claimed to have any data other than this. Yes is biased, but I doubt you'll find anything better. I never claimed that it wasn't, but if you claim it's wrong, then show me data that proves your view.

You need to redo these (or a better) course then. Your totally ignoring principles of reliability, validity, and multiple confounding variables:

What are you trying to say??! This post makes no sense.

Please point out where I display racism. Anywhere. You say it's clear. Should be simple for you...

Why are you bothering? :p

This is similar to the religious nuts complaining about people who complain about their bigotry.

"You're a bigot for not tolerating my bigotry" has in this instance transformed into "You're a racist for not tolerating my racism".
