This is a thread about reparations to the black population, if you want to get technical.

So, the Hispanic population in poverty does not matter. Only the black.

See, I disagree with you and I am explaining why and what I see coming from you.

Your responses have been more yelling at me telling me that other people in poverty don't matter because this is all about the black community. You say you are for reparations, then add the caveat, "well only in social programs that will help the black population."

When someone points out that you are still only focusing on one group and not ALL in poverty, this then becomes a thread where we are supposed to only talk about blacks. But.... the social programs are supposed to be for ALL, but you only want the blacks to succeed and therefore if the programs work and pull people of all races and groups out of poverty but the blacks aren't moving upward as fast (by your stats and in your mind).... then those programs must be failures because it didn't help the group you put the primary focus on.

When one points this out you just get pissy and snarky and refuse to see what is being pointed out to you.

See that part? The part you ignored in your continuing attempts to argue against something that no one is saying?
And you didn't read the whole post did you?
