Fact is blacks and latinos are more populous in the South. Look at the number of Mexicans in Texas, Arizona and New Mexico. Yet those are Red states. Black Baptists are everywhere in the deep south. But those are Red states. If they hate it here so much, you'd think that over the last 150 years their entire families could have saved enough coin for a bus trip and an apartment somewhere north. Yet they stay here.
I absolutely financially wrecked myself just moving me and my partner to another city *within* the state and here you are suggesting that moving an entire family across multiple state lines is not only feasible for most people, but trivial?

Get a fuckin' clue.

Is it just that Democrats say well, we don't want God mentioned, but we got to have those brown votes, so let's overlook the fact they worship the same God as Southern whites. At some point that will back fire.

Black people need to move out of Detroit, because they are the reason the city is poor.

Am I doing it right?
I'd go with "Black people get out!" if you want a rise.

If I'm so wrong, as I'm being told here, then I am with the majority of the people. They didn't vote for Democrats yesterday. This board is overwhelmingly Democrat then, but not representative of most people.

The outcome is not wrong, but the reasoning behind it is.

Whoever reported me, this was my reply to the mod:

I post facts and my beliefs. I have NOT insulted another poster. Please do as you wish but I am perfectly ok with being banned as long as I said my opinion and it is noted. America voted republican yesterday. If that bothers so many here they want to report me, they need help.

I didn't report you, for the record, that's not my bag. I think you are ridiculous, but I respect your right to remain ignorant. If you choose to never learn or grow, all of this "thought" you put into shit is pointless.

This is the issue - if you are a legitimate member, then we'd like you to be here. The post above causes us doubt. If you really believe you were reported for saying the republicans won - then that is unfortunate because that means you don't understand words. Like - you legitimately don't understand the meaning of words that are being said to you.

On the flipside, if in fact you are playing a game, then kudos, but time to move on.

So, benefit of the doubt one more time - the reason someone reported you was because of the comments about food stamps and handouts. That's an offensive post. That is what was reported. Don't kid yourself.

Has anyone else here ever heard of the Gish Gallop? I see that technique employed a lot on here.
