If you stop incarcerating even nonviolent criminals you will have the streets crawling with nonviolent criminals.

Idle hands are the Devil's workshop.

[Elsie]

Wonder if that’s the plan?

Nah...

If we wanted fodder we could very easily outlaw abortion, but take the children that would HAVE BEEN KILLED into the loving arms of Uncle Sam and creat fighting machines out of them.

[Elsie]

Oh Honey!

They tell all the TIME!

[Elsie]

Where’s that Long Legged Mack Daddy when you NEED him?

[Elsie]

Stop tolerating SUBSIDIZING promiscuity and criminal behavior among your men, stop having children out of wedlock, and stop blaming the problem on racism.

[Elsie]

And how does it help families to tolerate criminal behavior of any sort?

SIN is a reproach to ANY Nation.

[Elsie]

No; I did NOT read ahead and steal your reply!

If we wanted fodder

I was talking about China.

[Elsie]

I can dream, can't I?

"I have a dream..."

Martin is spinning in his grave!

[Elsie]

"Men will behave as badly as the women around them will tolerate."

So true!

My pastor even states that "men are dogs".

[Elsie]

Ultimately it comes down once again to the government caused the problem and the government sustains the problem.

When are WE going to FINALLY be fed up with it and actually DO something about it instead of inspecting our navals on FR all day long?

[Elsie]

AMEN!

No more CLAIMS,

Give us FACTS!

[Elsie]

most black men and white women down here involves neither marriage or non obesity or fathering beyond conception

Down WHERE?

[Elsie]

Oh...

[Smokin' Joe]

Stop tolerating SUBSIDIZING promiscuity and criminal behavior among your men, stop having children out of wedlock, and stop blaming the problem on racism.

I think you hit the nail on the head.

IIRC, if a woman was going to receive WIC and the rest of the alphabet soup of 'aid', she couldn't be married and living with her able-bodied husband.

[throwback]

Really interesting. Hadn’t heard of that phenomena. Got to love those central planners. What happens when the supposed smartest run things. I think I prefer freedom. Here you don’t have the government killing your over quota dogs or children yet, although we’re on our way.

Nashville area

i’d wager 1/3 of poor fat white trash women here have mixed babies and marriage and fatherhood is 100% absent

[wardaddy]

no doubt...the relaxation of this taboo has created a motherload of sexual opportunity (and careless pregnancy) for ugly fat white or hard faced older white gals who used to go unnoticed

maybe ugly white girls just don’t seem as ugly to some

another race thing I notice is White men prefer Asian women when they go outside their own

I like white Southern women and Colombian gals....and maybe a few other high Spanish white women...taste and culture wise

not to say some mulatto women are not gorgeous...they are indeed..

[blacklady]

had it been an “adverse effect” im sure the author would have mentioned it, and apparently it doesn’t since the majority of single black men prefer, date and marry black women.

[blacklady]

“It appears to me that the biggest obstacle that black women face is...........white women.”

It appears to me that you are completely ignorant. I personally don’t know any black man who desires a white woman. If anything black women are more intimidated by mulatto women and exotic Hispanic women After all they are mainly the type of women black men are most attracted to outside of black women.

“Especially blue eyed blondes. Take a casual perusal of black male celebrities. The black women as a wife or significant other is almost non-existent.”

Yes a very many famous black men have white or non-black partners, still MOST certainly have black wives and significant others. That is a fact, i work in the entertainment industry and see it firsthand.
