Will, please try not to patronize people for disagreeing with you.
and the answer to your last series of questions is an unequivocal YES. However, we should be fixing that stuff because those problems are a drain on society, not because the people causing them are black.
And your posts about Reparations imply a sense of collective responsibility which I don't share with you. I simply don't feel obligated to brood on issues in the distant past. I am not pretending they never happened, but I don't feel collective guilt, hand-wringing and a token offering is anything but insulting and misguided.
