If purple people are statistically more likely to rob you and you encounter a group of them on the street, you don't need to concern yourself with whether they're gonna rob you BECAUSE of the pigments in their skin. All you need to know is they're likely gonna rob you. Discrimination saves your wallet, you cross the street and get your chicken tendies.

I understand why someone would base their opinion this way, but it’s not my opinion. You believe stats = genetics, I do not. I work all over the country in the tech field (lasers) and I can tell you there are excellent talented people of all races. As I said, I believe why the majority of minorities do so poorly in this country is more economics, environment and government overreach trying to artificially correct based on stats with programs like Affirmative action. But if you want to believe you are genetically superior based on stats, you be you.

You're an idiot if that's what you surmised from my post. I even specifically spelled out that it doesn't matter WHY the purple guy is more likely to rob you, it only matters that he is.

I cannot trust people who go out of their way to tell you how racist they aren't.

You know, I didn’t read your entire post, shame on me. So you you took a tangent from what I was saying. I never said not to discriminate. If I see a group of kids in hoodies, regardless of race I’d be alert. And yes if in a ghetto neighborhood where the government overreach had been engrained, yes I’d be wary. Some may say that’s being racist, I don’t. So if you do not feel superior based on your genetics I apologize.

I think Racism is a social construct and could care less if you trust me.

In today's world, that line of thinking would classify you as a racist.

Well, lets take a broader look. Lets look back at the root of blacks in this country, Africa, where there is a genetic link to U.S. blacks but U.S. economics, environment and government overreach (read: white people) haven't created programs like affirmative action. Are blacks flourishing there? They kill each other in droves, have barely progressed past the hunter gatherer stages in some areas. So how would you explain that?

What i mean is you're a retard that apparently thinks about me on a daily basis. And while i'm flattered, I'm married so give it up.
Race isnt a social construct. Thats just what people want everyone to think so that 'all men are equal' but they arent. There are different races that are linked by genetic physical characteristics, hair, color of eyes, skin type, height...etc.

How do I take it to the extreme? I think every type of human has the right to be given an equal try at something. If one group fails, oh well. If another group succeeds, oh well. It is what it is.
It's extreme to think that some groups need more help/handicap because of <insert reason here>.
