| Did James Naismith, the inventor of basketball, envision a day when his game would play an integral role in the war on crime in America? |
Indianapolis will spend $1.1 million to build or improve outdoor basketball courts in parks across the city, including the creation of a new Westside court named after Indiana Fever player Tamika Catchings.
The citywide project will be funded through a private-public partnership, city officials announced Tuesday, involving the Indianapolis Parks Foundation, Indianapolis Power & Light Co. and the Pacers Foundation, in addition to city government.
Work will be completed over the next five years, Mayor Greg Ballard said at a news conference at Thatcher Park on the Westside. The effort will cover about half of the outdoor basketball court improvements needed throughout the parks system, he said.
“This public-private partnership is a testament to our ability to work together to achieve a better quality of life for our community,” Ballard said.
An IPL executive said her company believes in the project.
“As one of the most frequently used amenities in parks, outdoor basketball courts encourage healthy lifestyles, deter crime and offer an alternative for our at-risk youth and young adults,” said Kelly Huntington, IPL’s senior vice president and CFO.
The city is contributing $500,000 to the project, Ballard said. The other partners are contributing the rest. Officials are not divulging exactly how the rest is broken down by contributor.
Read Kelly Huntington's quote one more time:
Officials hope to raise additional money to build and refurbish additional courts across the city.
“As one of the most frequently used amenities in parks, outdoor basketball courts encourage healthy lifestyles, deter crime and offer an alternative for our at-risk youth and young adults,” said Kelly Huntington, IPL’s senior vice president and CFO.Dr. James Naismith's game sure has evolved into one of the only effective law enforcement and city hall has at their disposal to deter crime and ensure safe streets for the tax-payer.
Or do they?
In the city of Chicago, the opposite strategy has been deployed [Basketball controversies: In the name of protecting kids, there's a movement to take their sports equipment away, Chicago Reader, 9-22-2011]:
Shajuan put up a jumper from about 12 feet as his two defenders got ready to grab the rebound. There wasn't one. The shot bounced high off the rim and then fell through.
Shajuan and his friends play regularly at the Oz Park basketball hoops, which are across a field from their school, Lincoln Park High. But earlier this summer, after a couple of fights broke out on the courts, the rims were taken down for a few weeks following school officials' determination that they were a "magnet for trouble."
Though they're back up now, community leaders are still talking about locking them up so no one can use them during or after school—exactly the hours when young people need something to do. Shajuan sees the move as a major overreaction.
"It was all over some trash-talking," he says. "They should keep the rims up."
Though crime numbers have dropped steadily in recent years, concerns about drug dealing, gang activity, and violence are very real in neighborhoods across Chicago.
Residents and officials in a number of them believe getting rid of basketball hoops can help. They say that not only do fights break out frequently on the courts, but gangbangers try to recruit younger members or deal drugs under the guise of waiting for the next game.
Then again—these are places where people play basketball.
The debate over whether basketball courts attract violence—or whether they're simply blamed because people are afraid of the young men of color they see playing ball—has been going on for years. Once nearly ubiquitous in parks and playgrounds, outdoor hoops are now limited to a fraction of city schools and fewer than half of city parks.
"We receive many more requests to install, upgrade, or replace park equipment than requests to remove it," says Jessica Maxey-Faulkner, a spokeswoman for the Chicago Park District. "However, we have removed park equipment at the overwhelming requests of community members and/or aldermen."Odd that public tennis courts rarely attract the same criminal element, or are built to deter 'at-risk' youth from engaging in a life of crime.
So which one is it? Do basketball courts in heavily black cities/communities/neighborhoods cut crime or increase crime?
Better yet: would starting an LLC or a non-profit that built basketball courts in urban environments be an immediate financial success?

just as I said in yesterday's post just cut them new b-ball hoops the fuck down. and if they put em back up wait a couple weeks and cut them mother-fuckers down again. what can our local gov'ts due for us white people.(besides spy on us) where are the white people free things in life. oh I know where they are! bought bye those white people. we as white tax payers don't get the free stuff. or they don't have to drill a hole and fill it in with a metal pole and a basket on the top of that and HOPE this calms down a few thousand ngr's around the city. it's almost like blackmail! with no pun intended at all! oh don't forget the free lunch too! and my mother always said there are no free lunches. I guess she didn't know about the blackest parts of our city. let them starve and throw rocks at each other. and do you think they will thank us white tax payers for that free lunch. i'm still waiting ngr's! GODSPEED/SEGREGATION NOW!!!
Trial junkie here. This was a big preoccupation during the Clinton years. It was said that "Midnight Basketball," funded by the taxpayers would help cut down the crime rate.
I've heard the way to stop five ngrs from raping a white woman was to toss them a basketball...
"Shajuan" LOL, ROTFLMAO
It wouldn't matter if negroes took up playing marbles or table tennis, it would all break down and up in savage violence and murder.
Negros and crime go hand in hand.
Lafayette Square is one of the gentrified big money neighborhoods of St. Louis City. However, it's not far from some low rise "projects" to the east and fairly solid Bell Curve City to the west.
In the late 1990s, the Square's residents demanded and got the eponymously named city park to remove its basketball hoops and courts, because the "bassetball playas" were causing the Square's residents quite a bit discomfort when they tried to use the park.
BTW, Indianapolis Mayor Greg Ballard is supposed to be a conservative Republican.
Do they whistle "Sweet Geogria Brown" while hooping or raping?
Cities have tried basketball in the hood for years and it doesn't do squat. Too many blacks given a choice between playing basketball at midnight in the hood (and maybe getting shot) or getting a ride to the white part of town to rob and frighten YT pick YT. They just love YT and his stuff.
But I think midnight ghetto gatherings are a good idea, funded with private money, because it gives some of them a place to fuss and fight - shootings are just icing on that cake.

I guess I’m just trying to say that the movement, from my perspective, isn’t necessarily lighting things on fire (no pun intended, but I plead guilty to chuckling, anyway), in a way that would be the most effective on the broadest scale possible. I freaking LOVE all the statistics and damning evidence and exposes that PK and others spread like napalm on the great unwashed. I educated myself immensely on the actual history of the struggle to preserve Apartheid in SA with Amren’s amazing article on Eugene Terre’Blanche. Like with Katrina, that whole story has been completely sanitized from history, as well as the epic decay that followed. Just in time for it to all play out again in Amurkistan.
Rand Paul recently said, you don’t win elections by making your tent smaller. I guess I’m just grappling with formulating a propaganda strategy to wake up more whites. Maybe some of our DWL converts could offer further perspective. My concern again, though, is that these folks seem extremely intelligent, as well, such that they would be swayed by logic and statistics and academic presentations.
I guess the bottom line is that I’m concerned we’re trying to win the race realist argument with some grand argument of refined logic, when the people we need to add to our ranks are illiterate. Thus, what would more universally effective race realist propaganda LOOK like?
Hopefully that made some sense. If not, I know I can count on Californian to reorganize my thoughts for coherent re-presentation…
P.S. As I was finishing up, I thought of the stupid Rocky IV movie from 1985 with its USA v. USSR theme. At that point, none of us had a CLUE that the wall would collapse only 6 years later. But that movie, however lame or low-brow in its presentation, was DAMN effective, root-level, pro-American propaganda. How do we apply that type of model to the race realist movement?

Why is the solution for black violence, or any form of dysfunction, always to reward it? Genes have been shown to be a major contributor to crime and social disease, therefore I personally believe that Pavlov's dog style conditioning is really just going too far. We know that these characters will 'act a ass.'
Is someone out there just trying to overstate the point that blacks are dysfunctional in our society by incentivizing the worst of behaviors?
I have a dream that one day we'll awake to find out that this was a test from God to see how far we could be pushed before we stood up for ourselves and stopped funding, supporting and promoting BRA.
I hope all you SBPDL readers out there are having a nice weekend. Enjoy some reading time or a conversation with a neanderthal DNA influenced human and meditate on how great a blessing it is to be a civilized person with civilized family and friends.
Lafayette Square is the name of a groid destroyed mall in west Indianapolis. It is probably on that destroyed by groids mall page. Once L.S. got the metro bus stop it was all down hill with that wonderful vibrant diversity that turns everything into a solid gold bar. Now L.S. mall has an IMPD police station inside and no non DWL will go near the place no matter what sales or good deals are going on. For that matter the whole area around L.S. on 38th street and Georgetown road has been diversity improvementated and is now to be avoided.
Gwinnet Gladiator avoid the far east side and of course MLK boulevard. Also be careful of all streets downtown in the 20s and 30s. 24th street and 30th street especially. The mexcrements are cleansing most of these areas but it does take time. The area around the state fairgrounds on 38th street is groid fuxxored as well. Ever notice how any city with an MLK street, avenue, boulevard is to be avoided. Also avoid 38th street on the west side. Don't be fooled by the great deals on stuff. Many stripmalls there are now vacant since the white clientele has moved farther west. Check out the far west side to see some whitopias. West of interstate 465.

Hey, asshole, it's not the bassetball courts causing the problem. It's the "men of color" that are attracted BY the bassetball courts that's causin' all this.
See, those "men of color" are the ones filling out the high crime rate that "people" (read: responsible whites and the odd blacks) are afraid of.

More basketball courts is not going to fix this. Listen to the sista at the end talking about gibsmedat hope.
@Gwinnett Gladiator - People are far more likely to believe what confirms their current beliefs. It's intellectually lazy but more comfortable than the torment of reconciling evidence that conflicts with what you believe. There will come an event(s) that will be captured in a photo or video that will be the source of a dramatic shift toward race realism. Something equivalent to the lone person in front of the tank at Tienneman Square. We can't say what or when that event will be. Riots following a Zimmerman acquittal? Something Obama says or does? A gang rape recorded on World Star Hip Hop? An off the cuff remark by Eric Holder? Coupled with a illusory economic recovery, the breaking point will be reached.
It is frustrating that rational discussion has limited effectiveness. Like housebraking a dog, most will have to have "their noses rubbed in feces."

All of you people on this website are wrong. In 1974 Jacque Cousteau completed a very detailed study of worldwide shark behavior in the Atlantic ocean. His discovery found that many species of sharks, including hammer head, great white, lemon and nurse sharks congregate in the exact latitudes that were used by the white slave traders. When he painstakingly compared the records of slave ships at the Spanish and English maritime logs, he found they match exactly the routes that these many sharks still to this day travel. There was no other explanaition for the recorded routes of these shark colonies. Because of the huge numbers of African-american slaves, estimated to be over 1.3 million, that were thrown overboard, these sharks had learned that this was an area that provided food. Maybe if you did some minor research work you would see that this is no longer even in question in our scientific communities.
As far as President Obama's lineage, Ancestory.com proved some time ago that the President's ancestors had been among the very first slaves captured and forced into slavery in this country. His great-great-great aunt Molikullnnaalo was sold to a tobacco farmer in Pennsylvania and the documentation, including sales receipts and other historic papers are available on the internet.
It seems customary that many white people on the internet diminish the contributions of African-americans. The African-americans brought to this country had a rich history of technological innovation. At the time slaves were ripped from their homeland, the African-americans in central Africa had created vast roadways that allowed them to trade with Europe and Asia. They fashioned elaborate sailing vessels, many over 400 feet in length and with three and four dozen sails fashioned from a papyrus-like fabric they had learned to cultivate. These people were the first to have discovered how to domesticate giraffes, wildebeests and the hippopotamus. Their cultures were worlds in perfect harmony with their environment. They generated energy from the sun and the wind. Their diets were rich in fiber and vitamins and no one was hungry. Their accomplishments in medicine and the general health of their populations has not been matched to this day. This is one of the reasons we should all be optimistic about President Obama's plans for our health care. He is going to bring an African know-how to this difficult problem. But he needs our help. Please make a commitment to "have his back".
Gwinnet Gladiator,
Good luck with the arguments for race realism. I think it is a losing battle, especially with this country's brainwashed youth.
Just look at some of the comments in various media outlets about the recent Cheerios commercial with the abomination, uh, I mean, interracial couple. People in general, and young people in particular, were gushing about how wonderful this commercial was.
I think that no amount of facts can overcome the years of PC brainwashing these people have been through. Only a major economic and social breakdown and the TNB that is sure to follow could possibly break down such conditioning, and I am not sure even that would work.
If such a breakdown does happen, there will be TNB. Then, these people will learn the meaning of the saying "You can ignore reality, but you can not ignore the consequences of ignoring reality".
How about staying home and doing homework???
Nothing anyone does for the betterment of Negros ever does any good. Anything that incarcerates more Negros does any good. Sending Negros back to a Continent from where their ancestors came from, to live in their homeland is the only right thing to do. Where they can flourish free of white man's oppression. America, the World would flourish with the Negros living only in Africa. We dont need new basket ball courts. We need one way tickets to the dark continent.
His discovery found that many species of sharks, including hammer head, great white, lemon and nurse sharks congregate in the exact latitudes that were used by the white slave traders.
The slavers were following the sharks.
Haha, the shark thing is funny.
If indeed there is any truth to it at all, my guess would be that it's because the shipping routes coincided with trade wind patterns existing in nature - since this was before ships with engines. They had to go with the jet stream. I imagine sharks did too. but it's probably total BS as sharks attack people all along the coast, at least according to scare news reports I see.

"BTW, Indianapolis Mayor Greg Ballard is supposed to be a conservative Republican."
Hahahahahaha, He's no conservative.
Greg Ballard is a sellout, a black apologist, and he's anti-white. His office calls black mob action "isolated incidents", even though there is a trend in Indianapolis.
He has banded with the 10 Point Coalition and the Green Global Warming nuts and he is going to "transform" our city for the coming UN Agenda 21. He is building "mixed use" monstrosities and "traffic calming" schemes, and putting corn and nuts in our gas tanks.
Listening to him talk is like fingernails on a chalkboard. He has sold his soul to the progressive devil.
Gwinnett Gladiator: If you are visiting Indianapolis, downtown is still mostly safe during the day. Visit the canal area where the museums are. The Cultural Trail is fun to bike on. Avoid East, West, Center. Avoid the city libraries shopping malls. 86th St. Fashion Mall is still OK, and Whole Foods in Nora.
Mass Ave., lots of nice pubs and shops. That is "boys town" so not many blacks except for the homeless bums who stan in line for free food at the church. Get a "Bru" burger there. The Indianapolis Museum of Art is nice to visit and walk the grounds. Broadripple OK, safer during the day.
Castleton is a dump now, has been infiltrated by vibrancy, mostly chain stores and fast food. Carmel north is a fake whitopian city, they have tried to manufacture an arts and cultural scene, but it has failed. Lots of fat, zombie-like whites wearing sports jerseys in Carmel. Annoying but safe.

That is some really excellent satire (domesticated hippos? ROFL!), but I fear that it's far too subtle for 99% of the population. Judging from the comments here, that includes at least 80% of SBPDL readers. I'd camp it up just a bit more if I were you.

Was that her first name, last name, or her street name?
So, the mudsharks continue to swim the slaveship routes, looking for food. Are they starving out, or actually finding food? If the latter, then you, Jacques Cousteau, Gilligan and the Skipper should investigate who is throwing those tasty niggers overboard to this day. Stop wasting your time here, cuz it ain't us.
As far as the coal burning Cheerio's commercial goes, I'm sure it will help convince stupid adolescent white girls that being with a black guy is simply fabulous. Of course, blacks will take full advantage of such brainwashing to tap dat ass. However, what the stupid, brainless, adolescent white girls don't know is that getting a white girl pregnant with a black baby (to destroy their lives) is an intentional act of revenge for da legacy of slavery and da history of da ebbil whitey's treatment of holy black people in Amurika.
Some blacks are quiet open about it and clearly state that the entire pupose of getting with a dumb white girl is to destroy her life by getting her knocked up with a chimplet.
If those dumb bitches only knew.....better yet, if only their fathers would beat the hell out of them and knock some sense into their heads.

...basketball courts encourage healthy lifestyles, deter crime and offer an alternative for our at-risk youth and young adults...
Ah, yes, the "youth" again. So carefree, so hovering on that fine edge between becoming honor students and committing total mayhem. And all that it will take to put them on the side of the angels is a basketball court.
I understand the UN Special Commission on Africa is contemplating a continent wide construction program (to be paid for by first world countries) of basketball courts. This is to prevent Rwanda style massacres. Indeed, it has been reported that ever since the Liberians started playing basketball, the incidents of child soldiers shooting villagers have dropped by 47%.

I had relatives who were in the Great Depression. They said one of the things they would do was go to libraries and read. It was free and it kept them out of trouble. It also got them qualified for future jobs (one as a real estate agent).
Today we also have the Internet in which just about all the wisdom of the world is available. You'd think that the "youth" would take advantage of this. But the choice seems to be shooting hoops or driveby shooting.
The Cheerios commercial shows the vibrant diverse dad sleeping on the couch doesn't it? I had some shirt ideas of MLK saying he loves him some white hookers and one of Nicole Brown Simpson saying once you go black you never go back. Is that mean? Is it non PC? Good.
Speaking of wild animals of Africa. A non-race realist believes we are all the same. That is like saying a giraffe is a lion or a tiger is a hyena.

Gwinnett Gladiator said...However, with regard to race realism arguments, I’ve been trying to think of ways to be more effective with the dumb masses.
There is a lot to be said here.
Look at the term agitprop: "agitation and propaganda." Agitation is in the slogans you use to attract the great masses. Propaganda is in the complex arguments for the hardcore cadre.
To win over the masses, you have to find out what people want--and then show you can give it to them. Often, this means a little legwork, like going to public meetings and seeing what people are complaining about.
In recent years, there have been considerable movements built around opposition to taxes, and opposition to gun control. But the mass is not going to get worked up about PhD level theses on genetics, nor over conspiracy theories. I've seen that approach fail at too many political meetings. No matter how well constructed the argument, eyes glaze over. People do not want to hear your complaints. They want to hear their own grievances addressed.
Look at some of today's mass movements on the right: the Tea Party and the Gun Lobby. Taxes and guns. Race realists need to be able to leverage these issues. Think of ways this can be done. Once people have been recruited, you can then give them more complex arguments. But not before.
I worry that, in today’s two-sentence-attention-span world, the arguments, as we tend to state them, can never take hold.
It comes down to this: you win over people who have been alienated from the system and are now ready to listen to an alternative.
You rarely will win someone over with an argument. People need more visceral reasons for signing up.
Look at a common post on race realist websites: "I used to be a liberal on race until blacks moves into my neighborhood and crime went up while property values went down."
It's at this point that some (not all) will be willing to listen to crime stats and IQ arguments. But ultimately you have to attack the real problem, which is how DWLs use blacks as muscle against whites.
This brings me to a discussion earlier this week about propaganda. If you’re like me, when you hear that term, you immediately think of Goebbels and Nazi machine. In my mind, in studying history, propaganda = lies. In reviewing the beginning of the Wikipedia article"> on propaganda, I see that, although that’s the modern interpretation of the term, that wasn’t always the case.
Propaganda is central to any political movement. This is well understood by the left since they conduct non-stop propaganda, and on all fronts: via media, in the classroom, at work, in the streets, even on cereal boxes.
Propaganda has been a real shortfall with the right. There's a tendency to think that all one needs do is stockpile weapons and survival gear, and then when things blow up it can all be sorted out in an apocalyptic battle. But as the man says, most battles are fought and won before the first shot (real or metaphorical) has ever been fired.
Anyway, kudos to Gwinnett Gladiator.
And this is a topic which bears more discussion.
Gwinnett Gladiator said...And PK’s work makes the subject more accessible than anything else I’ve seen.
PK does a masterful job. He has, by design or via trial and error, come up with the correct formula for agitprop:
* Take one issue--BRA--which has the potential for attracting large numbers of people who have been already alienated by the system.
* Focus in on this one issue, and repeat the arguments until they become self-evident.
* And most critically...back everything up with facts and analysis.
There's something for everyone on SBPDL -- the casual citizen wondering why his property values have dropped, the academic who needs stats on violent crime, and the hardcore activist who wants to see the big picture.
There's also plenty of kicking around of ideas which can be useful in the real world. For example, the responses to the trolls develop a political line which can be useful for refuting their arguments in other venues. And sooner or later, all this can be turned into a political movement.
How can anyone watch that video of twerking Negresses and still believe that race is a social construct?

...there's no better way to spend a sunny afternoon than taking my Afro-domesticated giraffe out for a leisurely trail ride. And to think, blacks made that possible! You learn something new every day.
So typical of white people who make no effort to learn about African history. The giraffes were not domesticated to ride. They are too high and their spine too sloped to allow a comfortable ride. The Mussoru tribes in the present day Congo used these animals to pick fruit; durian, breadfruit and African spotted apples from the huge trees. Over centuries the Mussoru and Puttingo tribes geneticists used a series of rings to lengthen the animal's necks. The result is the modern day giraffe we know today.
Similarly, the hippopotamus was not used for travel, but domesticated for its copious quantities of highly nutritious milk. While Europeans were struggling to get two or three gallons from their cows, the African-americans in the delta region of Iringa in Tanzania, were able to feed entire villages with a single yield of milk from their hippos. We learn that the easy availability of this an other carefully managed crops and wildlife was the factor that allowed these early African-americans to build great structures and vast cities. It's believed that African-americans in America are now so attracted to our urban areas for this reason. Historically they lived comfortable lives in the huge urban sites spread throughout east and west Africa. Harvard University's Dr. Cornel West has spoken about the difficulty these early African-american's faced in coming to the largely rural and developing United States. They were accustomed to an orderly, peaceful society. One of great prosperity arising from the natural sharing of all resources these people were known for. One can imagine their shock and disorientation on arriving in America to find what were at that time, poor farms worked by illiterate people and populated by strange animals.
We are fortunate as a nation that these African-americans, ripped violently as they were from their homelands, were still willing to contribute to this country. Their hard work and their wisdom has made American what it is today.
"Over centuries the Mussoru and Puttingo tribes geneticists used a series of rings to lengthen the animal's necks. The result is the modern day giraffe we know today."
I am impressed that African biotech had mastered Lamarckian genetics while YT scientists still proclaim it impossible.
"Today we also have the Internet in which just about all the wisdom of the world is available. You'd think that the "youth" would take advantage of this."
The negro youth are way ahead of you on this. World Star Hip Hop anyone?
"Propaganda has been a real shortfall with the right."
This is so true. The left has a great advantage with their domination of media, arts, academia etc. Moreover, those who are (or should be) sympathetic to us have day jobs or are simply not whiners and not prone to "rock the boat."
B-Ball to blacks doesn't make them simmer down or mature, if anything, it gets their testosterone even more stirred up. It's like putting high octane gasoline in the monkey-shines engine. NOT a good idea.
Or, perhaps it's like giving a retarded baby a bigger diaper in hopes that it will stop drooling and shitting itself. No, the bigger diaper can just hold more shit now.
Ain't gonna work, bro.
More of the same. At this point it's just sad -- the delusion has reached epic proportions, and it's sad.
I live in nice area slightly more than one mile north of the loop in Chicago. I know of only two bassetball courts. One is in Streeterville in a Chicago Park District building just yards from where a tourist was attacked last summer. The other is on Chicago Public SChool property in Lincoln Park and is behind a locked gate. I am sure there are more, but I don't go west or south.

Why not build libraries to occupy the youths??
Libraries to black yoofs generally mean place to surf WSHH and porn, so they should not be called libraries. They are to blacks what adult bookstores are to gays, so just call them black bookstores.

Oh, and you forgot to mention that in addition to domesticating hippos and inventing solar power, Africans also invented classical music, math, and built flying pyramids.
Next they will be claiming they designed and built the first "magic carpet" and that the concept was stolen from them.

Some blacks are quiet open about it and clearly state that the entire pupose of getting with a dumb white girl is to destroy her life by getting her knocked up with a chimplet.
No matter how DWL a man is, almost all will only treat the owner of a chimp as a booty call. I would have to believe that once these women realize what the chimp has done to their life that they begin to resent them at the minimum.
OT: I normally read Daniel Greenfield, aka Sultan Knish, but he really jumped the shark on this entry. He has basically said that the Left has hijacked the "black community" and is entirely responsible for their failures. They have "plundered their history and heritage...".
Who needs enemies when you have whites like Daniel Greenfield???
http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/2013/06/government-is-new-race.html
Greenfield: "The left played the black community, bribed their leaders, tossed a few trinkets to the masses and then plundered their heritage and history. The economic potential of the black community was destroyed to leave them with few options but to serve as the cannon fodder of big government. Black history and politics have been so thoroughly hijacked that a media personality on the propaganda channel of big government can claim with a straight face that IRS is a racial slur."
This is the same old guilty jewish/DWL crap that has gotten us where we are today. Affirmative Action and "little community grants" and all of the reparations transfers are what is bankrupting this country.
He does not know any authentic blacks. He lives nowhere near real black people and their violent, degenerate culture. Blacks who are seething with hatred for jews and whites. Blacks who look to their black messiah, Barack Obama, the "first black president", to brutally confiscate the wealth of white people and bring them down once and for all as sweet revenge for slavery.
Why not build libraries to occupy the youths??
Well, they tried that already in Indianapolis. The public libraries are now full of black surfing porn all day on the "free" public computers. The baby mommas club meets with their newborns on Wednesday after school, people can purchase online groceries there with their EBT card, sign up for services, and get tax prep help, The women let their children run wild and climb on things.
The homeless men wash their feet in the restrooms and lounge around all day on the leather chairs.
I would like to welcome the insights on the African and African-American experience that anonymous has shared with us. The fact that he must post such informative and enlightening discourse anonymously shows how little real progress has been made on racial dialog.
As a beneficiary of White Privilege, I can post under my true name which partly assuages my White guilt. More importantly, I have a tenured faculty position at a university funded by White taxpayers.

I do remember seeing a shop in Zimbabwe that sold giraffe saddles and plow harnesses for hippos. Too bad the white man being jealous of the black mans achievements hired Hitler to destroy any evidence of their gleaming architecture and vast road systems.

@Anon 11:51: "How can anyone watch that video of twerking Negresses and still believe that race is a social construct?"
It's a popular thing to say "White people can't dance."
Black people dancing: twerking, aka *twitching rear end around in a monkey-like mating ritual*
White people dancing: Ballet. Tap-dancing. Tango. Waltzing. Things that take practice and skill to learn. All now considered "uncool".
While I'm at is can I just say - I got so sick and tired of being forced to smile and pretend Clementine Hunter was some great example of an unsung folk art hero who was unappreciated because she was an "African-American woman". My paintings look better than hers, which isn't saying much because my artwork sucks. They gave her an honorary doctorate for painting crap that looked like this: http://nyogalleristny.files.wordpress.com/2012/01/clementine-hunter-the-pole-watchersw-1948_jpg.jpg
I guess I just don't understand art.

Hah! I am the one that posts as Shlomo Steinberg and Harrison Limprist. The funny thing is that I work in a job (private sector) where we are required to 1) have FBI background checks every 5 years 2) credit checks probably yearly 3) psychological profile testing upon start of work, 4) random drug and alcohol testing 5) report ANY law enforcement interaction beyond minor traffic violations and 6) train to observe signs of psychological instability in fellow employees. I am also on call several weekends a year when I cannot be more than a few hours from work and cannot drink alcohol.
Friday, I found out the facility that I work at will be closing and that I and hundreds of others will be losing our jobs. Many of us are in our later 40's and 50's (and White) so professionally, this was our high water mark. Without going into the details, this action is directly attributed to a concerted effort of DWLs and local political figures many of whom are TWMNBN.At least I was aware this could happen and was more mentally prepared than most others.
Sorry for the rant. I posted here many times BEFORE this happened but this site has been a Godsend. Much like one of those Victorian gentlemen's clubs where you could get together with like minded people and say what was on your mind.
A round of appreciative applause to PK.
My dear friend, June 9, 2013 at 8:09 AM:
I could have gone another forty years without seeing that and been fine.
How anyone could see that and want to have sex with it is beyond me.
"OK, what does TWMNBN mean?"
The letters stand for Those Who Must Not Be Named. The "those" represents Jews. It is a recognition of the tremendous influence that TWMNBN have in government, media, finance, academia, politics, entertainment etc. and the undeniable fact that this power has been used almost exclusively to the detriment of White, heterosexual, male, individually responsible people. I believe the term comes from a quote of Voltair which said "Those who control you are those you are not allowed to name."
Basketball courts just give Negroes a place to hang out. Wherever Negroes hang out, there's noise, fights, criminal activity, and violence. We need to put the Negroes to work, not give them places to engage in Typical Negro Behavior.

"Speaking of wild animals of Africa. A non-race realist believes we are all the same. That is like saying a giraffe is a lion or a tiger is a hyena.
Those are separate species. When we speak of dogs, we speak of "breeds." In humans, "race" is equal to "breed."
A golden retriever and a pit bull are both breeds of dogs. They can have puppies together, but they will be mutts. Mutts usually end up at the pound.
I'd also prefer the golden retriever to the pit bull in my neighborhood. The golden is family-oriented and not prone to violence. Some are, but it's a rare thing to see. Some pit bulls may be raised in outstanding environments and be family-oriented, but those are as rare as the violent golden retriever.
If a pit bull is in my neighborhood, I'm extra cautious and encourage kids to be the same. It's not that I'm a "breedist," I just know what to expect.
There are no problems with hockey, or baseball, or track and field, it is always some kinds of folks playing basketball, or another kind of folk playing soccer. Hey if everyone plays midnight basketball, when do they go to school or work at a job? Oh welfare, section 8 housing, obama phones, food stamps. Nevermind then.

I've really enjoyed Anonymous' tales of Africa - more imaginative than anything on TV.
Those sharks must be the dumbest creatures in the sea if they're still trolling the same waters looking for slave meat. I would have thought they'd have died out just like the slave trade.
Got to run because I'm off to the zoo to try and milk a hippo. Do you think two 5-gallon buckets will be enough to hold all the milk? Hahaha!

Being an older white male puts you at a disadvantage these days, regardless of your qualifications. I think we all recognize that it's real. On the other hand, bright people will always find something, or make something themselves. And besides, the forces, including the BRA forces, that are suffocating this economy won't last forever.
Hey Anon 11:52:
Did the Mussoru and Puttingo tribes geneticists also genetically engineer your womens' butts to make them bigger?
They ate the books! Ha ha got that from the old peace corps commercial. Remember"We tried to teach them how to plant crops...........they ate the seeds". That would be considered racist as hell these days.

Anon @ 4:27 PM
First, condolences on the loss of your job. You're obviously an intelligent and creative man, and I have high hopes you'll land on your feet. A few years ago, my daughter lost her job, and, as a breadwinner in a strange country, she thought it was the end of the world. Today, she looks back on it as the best thing that could have happened to her. Hopefully, you will also go on to something better.
Then, thanks for your contributions here. I was sure you could never again approach that sublime picture of Obama's ancestor rowing the slave ship across the Atlantic while singing negro spirituals, but you came close with those "African-Americans" in Tanzania milking hippos. Priceless.
Hippos, of course, are probably the most dangerous animals in Africa. They're mean-tempered and incredibly fast. They kill many more people in Africa than crocodiles do.
The comment at 12:24 about Lamarckian genetics was good, too; was that you? You give that impression in your 4:27 comment. This is all very confusing. You have names for your other aliases; please identify yourself in all your comments.
You people do know, don't you, that that trick with the rings to make the neck longer is an actual practice in Africa? They do it to their women, but no, it's not heritable. Every generation gets the treatment. The big butts, that's heritable, but not engineered; just evolution. It's partly sexual selection, but primarily it's a survival trait. A woman with a big butt carries her food storage with her, to see her through the lean times. That makes her more fit than a skinny woman. You see the extreme manifestation of this in the desert-dwelling Bushmen of the Namib.
2020 @ 5:25 PM - 15 years after apartheid in south Africa.
"Video can not be viewed from your current location". Strange. I'm in South Africa. Oh, well, probably nothing new, anyway.
oops, might have posted to wrong thread...
Ok, I've got to admit responsibility for the African history stories. I was just feeling creative and otherwise tired of complaining about negroes. Why not have some fun with them for a bit.
I listen to some guys on radio podcasts who long ago went to South Africa. I always remember them telling this story of a white tour guide showing them some area or another and explaining that it was "an african-american area". It's like every black person on earth is referred to as an african-american. No one really picked up on that piece of absurdity in the stories. But have you ever tasted hippo milk? It's delicious, tastes kind of like a milkshake.
Remember the ending of MAGNOLIA where toads rain down from the sky?
