Daniel, we are not living in 1950 Selma, Alabama. We have every law on the books pertaining to equal rights. Are there some who are racist, absolutely. They come in all shades.Yes, our past has many stains but we’ve worked very hard to make things right.The vast majority of Americans are good decent law abidingpeople that want equal rights and fairness for all people regardless of race, ethnicity, sex, or religion.
I’m a conservative and I never bought into the Birtherism evenfor a minute. The ones that did were flat out wrong.
Again, Fox does not advocate or encourage racism. Fox pointsout the many hypocrisies of the Leftists constantly ranting aboutrace and racism.
The Diversity thing, again Fox is not against diversity but the hypocrisy of the left that treat it like a religion.
Diversity is good for our nation. No denying that. But we can’t keep harping on our differences. We must start emphasizing our commonalities and what binds as Americans.
"Daniel, we are not living in 1950 Selma, Alabama."
I never claimed otherwise.Your argument seems to be if a problem is not at its very worst it is nonexistent. This is not true.It also supports my view- the US is not as racist as it was, and so it shows that it can improve. That doesn't mean it is not racist, though.
You may have worked hard to make things right (I disagree with this assessment, however) but that doesn't mean you've finished the job.
The EU doesn't dictate the immigration policies of EU countries though.Many who voted for Brexit believed, bizarrely, it would mean reducing the numbers of Indians, Pakistanis, Bangladeshis and Sri Lankans in the UK. It doesn't, because the EU has no say in the laws about immigration from outside the EU.
People may have believed this, but they were wrong- exactly like so much people believed that Trump said.
The left wing media do exactly what you just accused Fox of.
Tucker Carlson has mentioned many times the topic of inequality between the rich and poor. Don’t get me wrong, there are times when I firmly disagree with him. But he does bring up manyimportant points and issues.
There were statue preservationist in Charlottesville before the Nazi and the KKK showed up.However, the preservationist should have left ( I think they did )when the white supremist arrived.
The entire thing was organised by a far right group called Unite The Right.The night before the protest when one of them murdered a woman and injured numerous other people by driving his car into them, there was a torch lit procession by Unite the Right which included chants of "Jews will not replace us".There was no point where there weren't neo-Nazis there.
As to the statue- it is itself a tribute to a traitor who fought to defend slavery. Supporting that hardly indicates an antipathy to racism.
You admitted what I have been telling Daniel about the big disparity of black violence verses all other groups. Yes, we can debate the reasons or causes but not the facts.
Most black leaders acknowledge the pandemic of black violencein our cities throughout the nation. These leaders know that this isa crisis. Again, where am I wrong????
"The left wing media do exactly what you just accused Fox of."
Then you can offer some examples.
Carlson is a bigot. That you like him doesn't change the fact. The man spreads racism, Islamophobia, sexism, xenophobia and transphobia on his show. He is, as one interviewee he refused to broadcast called him, a millionaire employed by billionaires- a man whose job depends on his using resentment to get and keep viewers.He is at best disingenuous, at worst intellectually blinkered and bigoted.
I know the demographics of the country. Blacks make up approximately 13% percent of the population but commitover half of all murders and assaults. This is primarily youngblack males ( about two percent of the population) committing the violence. Again, where am I wrong????
We have a huge problem with young black males being murderedin this country. Young men that will never reach adulthood or livetheir dreams. Again, where am I wrong????
"I’m a conservative and I never bought into the Birtherism evenfor a minute. The ones that did were flat out wrong."
Good for you- but plenty did, including Trump.
Fox definitely projects racist views, frequently and blatantly. I could cite here Megyn Kelly's infamous meltdown over Santa being white, or the constant attempts Fox hosts make to find any justification for police shootings of black people (Kelly, on Fox, was also responsible for the claim of a child victim of police shooting that they were "no angel").
Fox's stock in trade is promoting the idea of differences between "real" America- white, conservative, patriarchal and Midwestern/southern, and "liberal elites" who live on the coasts. It frequently uses dehumaning language about Muslims, black people, and Hispanic immigrants (see how keenly Fox presenters adopted the term "invasion" to describe refugees and asylum seekers fleeing central American countries this year and last).
Fox doesn't criticise the left legitimately- I have never once seen Fox accurately represent what the left actually believes. Instead it sets up straw men and attempts, with mixed success, to knock them down.
The sources I’ve sited are second hand from very reliable sources.Other than the book, the others that I’ve heard speak to thisissue have been on television and on the radio.I wish I could tell you who and where. But I’ve forgotten the namesand dates. However, I did hear an academic PHD a Criminologist speak to this very issue on September 24, on WLW. It was theMike McConnel show. The professor was from the university ofCincinnati. He pretty much reiterated what I’ve heard before.
Dude, I'm not saying poor people are ignorant. I'm saying duds like you are ignorant. But keep on speaking about things you actually don't know about because you're a walking example of Dunning-Kruger. And yeah, I am arrogant enough to know I know more than you.

I have other responsibilities that I have to attend to so I dependon others that are experts and credible just as all other people do.
And no, you did not spoil the situation.

I said the numbers and the percentages were completely disproportionate. What part of my comments did you disagree with.

Just incidentally, here is a lie Fox has put out today, in support of a lie they have been repeating at length about Joe Biden.
