Do you think every citizen in Africa is responsible for african problems? Not every problem african has is self inflicted, and THAT sentiment can be put upon by every other nation as well.

mhking, please post to the Black Conservative thread (I don't know how to do that!) First, you need to do a separate post with his name in the "To:" box. That way it will come up on his self search. Please, allow me.

We tried it once, in Somalia. Tragically, the fiasco that was Somalia made it politically unfeasible to intervene in Rwanda. Of course when you had a President that only cared about his own poll numbers, that's how it goes.

The French have a policy of supporting French-speaking countries against all others. This is why they supported the murderous Hutus in Rwanda, the Tutsis were aided by English-speaking Uganda. When asked about Rwanda, the pig Francois Mitterrand replied, "in a country like Rwanda, a genocide is not that important."

The answer is culture...why are there crack dealers in black neighborhoods throughout the US? Because they allow it and a lot really don't give a damn. You will be hard pressed to find poor white areas with dirtbags on the corners hawking drugs in the suburbs...cultural...think about it.
To: chasio649
Oh please...stop it. Why is it on FR that people do this? You obviously have never been to a poor white neighborhood on Long Island lately.

I know as many white youth smoking crack,heroine, X, crystal meth, as anyone else. You just want to get away with saying that black neighborhoods are rife with drugs and white ones aren't without someone calling you on that.

I am sure in the end it's about money. I guess I should not expect much out of the government to do something when it counts, esp. in this situation.

That's exactly what i am saying...and i am sure those little white boys are dressed like hiphop gangsta wannabes...so what does that tell you?
To: jocon307
Duh...no oil...no money...Cant save every one
To: chasio649
Actually not really. Most are dressed like they're either in the trench coat mafia, grunge metal or well dressed. Your statements make you sound ignorant and prejudiced. You ought to get more information before you say things like that. Not every black neighborhood is your south central fantasy. Not even South-Central LA is the way rap videos portray it. I went to visit my aunt in South Central, and I was amazed how clean, how quiet this part of SC was.

Crouch makes way too much sense for a liberal.
He's coming over to our side.

If it wasn't for the MidEast Oil, the Arab/Israeli conflict would be ignored like the Hutu and Tutsis.

I never said you were ignorant. I said your statements make you sound ignorant. But this discussion we are having is not on the topic of this thread. I would be more than happy to discuss it in FReepmail with you. Otherwise, I have nothing else to say.
