Topic: The lunacy of the 'diversity people'

[warpmine]

Dr. Walter Williams has this to say in his column about the diversity people and I have a solution I think many here will accept below.

                            http://www.wnd.com/2012/07/the-lunacy-of-the-diversity-people/

 

Academic intelligentsia, their media, government and corporate enthusiasts worship at the altar of diversity. Despite budget squeezes, universities have created diversity positions, such as director of diversity and inclusion, manager of diversity recruitment, associate dean for diversity, vice president of diversity and perhaps minister of diversity. This is all part of a quest to get college campuses, corporate offices and government agencies to “look like America.”

For them, part of looking like America means race proportionality. For example, if blacks are 13 percent of the population, they should be 13 percent of college students and professors, corporate managers and government employees. Law professors, courts and social scientists have long held that gross statistical disparities are evidence of a pattern and practice of discrimination. Behind this vision is the stupid notion that but for the fact of discrimination, we’d be distributed proportionately by race across incomes, education, occupations and other outcomes. There’s no evidence from anywhere on earth or any time in human history that shows that but for discrimination, there would be proportional representation and an absence of gross statistical disparities, by race, sex, height or any other human characteristic. Nonetheless, much of our thinking, legislation and public policy is based upon proportionality being the norm. Let’s run a few gross disparities by you, and you decide whether they represent what the courts call a pattern and practice of discrimination and, if so, what corrective action you would propose.

I've got a solution to the problems of inner city life, a progressive diverse one.

Force the large black populations to move to the country side until
only 13% remain. Make sure that all congressional districts are only 13%
black. These are the most basic of all the diversity problems and as
you can see by the clearly corrupt city governments run by blacks and
corrupt black representation in congress my solution is desperately
needed.

Thank you Dr. Williams for providing that excellent statistical analysis
to the forefront. If liberals are so keen on correction they should
accept the new solution with glee.

Only one problem warpmine: I don't want inner city Blacks living in the countryside. That's a big part of why I live in the countryside. They're not here.

Oh, and my younger boy's best friend is a Black kid. Lives out by the lake. Stays as clean as a whistle; no drugs; no cursing; goes to church; lives with mom and dad who love him; calls me "Sir"; wears his clothing properly; doesn't talk like a chimpanzee; stays physically fit.

Nothing - NOTHING about my aversion to inner city Blacks has to do with skin color. It has 100% to do with behavior and values.

[Pandora]

Nothing done satisfies the di-VER-sity people, even when they instigate and agitate for something. 

They went to court, using "representation" as a rationale, to force "majority minority districts" for voting, the claim being Blacks weren't and couldn't possibly get the representation (Blacks elected) they deserved with Whites diluting their cohort.  The Republicans redrew districts to give them what they wanted, and now they're complaining that because "they" are squashed into a few "majority minority" districts, THIS isn't "fair".

[IronDioPriest]

Yup. And if anyone dared to point to the inner city as over-representing Blacks, and factually note that the inner city doesn't "look like America", suggesting that the disparity was some kind of problem, they would be branded a racist, and so-called conservatives would join in the accusation.

The cult of diversity is a societal mental sickness.

This is further proof that the ideas of liberals can not be manifested in reality.  If you give them what they say they want (they say it because they think it will make things better) they quickly realize that reality isn't what they thought it would be.  They have no capability to think through the issue to realize that it just won't work.  Another example is socialism,  if we take away all earnings away from those of us that are productive and share it with all, eventually those of us who are productive will cave in and realize we can just be as lazy as the rest and eventually no one is productive and there is no money to share and we all die.

Hey, I don't want those darkies near me. Oh wait, that would be racist.
  And yes they tried this already and with predictable results

 of course, if you weed out the barbarians you apparently get better results

Another limitation is that some families may not be prepared to benefit. The Gautreaux program had three selection criteria that were intended to assure landlords they would get good tenants and make it more likely that participants would be able to remain in these apartments. The program tried to avoid overcrowding, late rent payments, and building damage by not admitting families with more than four children, large debts, or unacceptable housekeeping. None of these criteria were extremely selective. Because 95 percent of AFDC families have four or fewer children, the overcrowding restriction eliminates only a few eligible families. Moreover, Gautreaux administrators estimate that about 12 percent of applicants are rejected by the credit check or rental record and only 13 percent are rejected by counselors who find property damage on a home visit. Thus, all three criteria reduced the eligible pool by less than 30 percent.

And that would be the same lazy, entitled, neanderthal 30% segment we always have problems with. Otherwise known as liberals.

[blockquote]Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.
This is known as "bad luck."[/blockquote]

Over and over and over. Become self sufficient, go on the govt teat, and look like one of them. They will leave you alone.

How is it that nobody blows this stuff back in their faces every time they bring up another diversity benefit program? I realize the typical Republican can't remember the planks of his party by sh*t, why can they not remember to throw this back into the center of arguments. Documentaries on this stuff should be made and their population should be forced to sit down and watch. Never mind, I forgot that the average literacy rate for these folks are slightly stronger than that of a moron.

Perhaps the solution is similar to what Israel did...divorce themselves from the barbarians by via fences and walls. They can govern themselves but must be civil enough to pay for the utilities themselves.(Yeah, sure that will work.)

Like I said, war is the only solution to what ails this country and I think we've becoming more and more aware of this.

Pan? Ask Gunsmith who has the best price on 60 round clips for the AR-15 types. Cheapest I've seen them is $130.

[Pandora]

Sure, I'll ask him if he knows.

Just practice your mag changes. That's ultimately your better option over heavy, unwieldy supermags.

Yea, well somebody just took delivery of a bunch of these babies and has been practice, practice, practicing!

[Glock32]

Nice. Drums are the way to go if you do want the capacity.  I've seen stick mags of 40+ rounds, and those are unwieldy IMO. Forget about prone fire.

I know they be nice, took delivery via gun show last month. Looking for red hair paint now, good ski mask, helmet, pink flak jacket(don't want to stand out). Wait maybe not a helmet. Perhaps a good hoody.

Submitting my resignation to the occupy movement's planning commission and I'll be on my way. Wait, Although I'm a terrorist by definition according to the proglidytes, I still have a family to attend to. Occupy trash never have to worry about those things. I envy them and their cool lifestyle, BO, drugs, rape, you know all the good things.
