I’m going to have SO much fun with my census form this year. All my pets identify as white.
5 out of 4 census takers agree that math is hard.
A census taker once tried to test me...
When, again, is that color-blind society supposed to emerge? I’ve been waiting for it since the 60’s.
Maybe they don't count the people in prison?

I get very sick of all this ‘person of colour’ Schiff! My skin colour is pale pink, so I am ‘a person of pale pink colour’. I’ve yet to meet someone who is a ‘person NOT of colour’. Would that ‘person NOT of colour’ then be ‘the Invisible Man’? I do recall a series movies and then a TV series in the 1970s(?) about ‘The Invisible Man’. I guess that he was ‘a person not of colour’. I have yet to meet someone of no colour.

Bwawawawawa
Always “victims”
Never perpetrators
Makes one wonder how these always perfect people don’t rule the world and don’t have to whine all the time
If everyone just refused.....they might stop.
Might have something to do with where people are staying at as compared to where people live.
Counting Iowa caucus votes appears to be hard too.
Go to the post office on the evening of the day the census forms are in the mail. Look in the trash cans. They will be full of discarded census forms and junk mail.
The solution is simple. Just add 10 to 15% to the count. Or more. Whatever prevents them from rioting.
Oh what BS
If you can’t count them, how do you know they exist? Because the “Urban Institute” told you? So, an advocacy group that represents only black people told you and you immediately accept it as gospel?
Writers at the Guardian only do so because it confirms their worldview and helps drive their narrative of rampant discrimination. If Guardian writers didn’t have identity politics as a means to anger people and get them to vote... and read the Guardian to fuel there ever-simmering rage... their would be a lot more left-wing politicians and so-called journalists looking for other jobs... and that would be a positive development for the entire world.
It would seem that the impoverished would be most likely to be double-counted. They’re at a homeless shelter in New York one day and at a different homeless shelter in Jersey City a few days later.
Explain this, please: “ Black children are twice as likely to be undercounted as children who aren’t black.“
Are they filling out their own census forms?
Our American government is prohibited from knowing how many American citizens live in America. Thanks Soetoro.
Back President Trump’s effort to make certain the census form contains the citizenship question in it and no reference to race. But to the country of where the respondent is a citizen of, if not an American citizen.
TIME TO END HYPHENATING AMERICANS
One thing the Mexican Constitution has that we should consider doing.Mexico has no hyphenated Mexicans. They prohibit any reference to race when they conduct a census or issue any means of identification, Where a photo id is not available physical description is needed skin color yes but not by race but by one nationality Mexican.
By doing this Mexico has avoided “balkanizing”, creating fractional disputes in areas where a given group in one of its states is a majority or a minority. Plus it could play a significant part in shutting down the political playing off racial divisions between Americans by the Democrats..By doing this Mexico has avoided “balkanizing”, creating fractional disputes in areas where a given group in one of its states is a majority or a minority.
