I am brown as the day is long.

I'm sick of the race card playing in this country by blacks and latinos.

Try being model minorities like asians and brown folks.. Then you'd have higher education levels and higher incomes than white folks by capita.

Blaming the white hand of apartheid opression ain't working, sonny.


Asians and indians have LOWER incomes per capita than the general population.

That whole "model minority" myth has been exploded for 15 years.

White people will be the minority in the U.S. in the very near future so all you current minorities hold out until then...

What "myth"?

Wouldn't you say they are generally sucessful? Despite not benefiting from affirmative action and quotas?

Crack a 7-11 joke, but who usually owns those businesses?

I live in a neighborhood in NYC where asians have immigrated to in the last 15 years or so. We've already monopolized the place.  ;D Over 3/4 of the businesses are immigrant or second generation immigrant. No black businesses in sight, despite the area having a huge amount of blacks. Crime has gone way down and property values are climbing as more blacks are being pushed out.

The only card Vick needs to worry about is his "Kennel License."






Yikes. The guy has been doing this for years it goes back beyond just 2001, he is well known in the pitbull fighting world.

Just did some research and found this creep taking up for Vick, he was on CNN last night defending Vick talking about "due process" and "if he was not black"

Only a matter of time before Sharpton gets involved....

I emailed him, and CNN regarding his comments and pushing them not to confuse the issues at hand, I might be partially ok with them having people on to "support" Vick since they are journalist and need to report properly but throwing up the issue of color, is absurd.

There was a time when it was true that Asians and indians were overwhelmingly successful, but
that was due almost entirely to America's strict immigration policy that favored educated, skilled applicants.

 Even under those circumstances, Indians and asians reliably hit the glass ceiling in the work force, on average,  earning significantly less than the general pop.


Asians and Indians immigrants, do by and large, have more years of schooling than the pop. at large, but they are chronically underemployed. The small businesses they work are often not owned by them and rarely significant sources of income.


Earlier this week you said you were Pakistani and taking over our country. Here in New York, poverty levels among Pakis has skyrocketed while education levels have dropped. Some study was released last year about how it was one of the poorest demographics in New York.

Haven't you stated before that you live in the ghetto?

You can walk a block in the city and be in the ghetto.  ::)

And when did I say I was taking over anything? I was making a joke about england and their struggle with pakistani immigrants on the Y forum.

And to add, recent immigrants to the city cannot be expected to have huge incomes.

Say what you will, but I go by subjective observation. Asians and south asians are pretty damn sucessful within the second generation. Plus take in account the lower levels of crime.

You based your entire arguement by calling me a paki.

"if he was not black and a pro NLF football star, then he would not have been targeted by the feds"

People are forgetting also that the feds went on Vick's property investigating for drugs and drug money, and turned out they found an even more lucrative illegal operation.

There is a diff between living in the ghetto and walking past the ghetto. If you are going to brag about being a superior race, don't live there or it's a moot point on a personal level.

In regards to your race-I'm not an elephant, so I  guess I  was wrong about your that.

What are you?

I guess the Feds were just investigating Vick just because he was black so they assumed he had drugs and drug money on his property...I highly doubt they would take that chance with a high profile successful football player...

No, the last part of my argument was based on one race of "brown people",
which is still valid even if you don't belong to that demo.

And my argument, in its totality, was based on decades of info.


Previous generations of immigrants have been successful right away because they were already successful before they got here. Their second generation would be successful- in all demographics, including black, successful parents are a pretty accurate harbinger of successful children.


 There was never a groundswell of poor asians making it in america. The poor Asian groups that come to America generally stay poor.

I didn't say I was superior.

I was just pointing out differences in culture and economics. It's cultural and that's my belief. A lot of black people refuse to look at themselves and choose to blame the invisible hand of white apartheid opression. And it's deemed acceptable by society as a whole because of what took place in the past.

Queens is a pretty diverse place. I walk a few blocks past a certain avenue and I'm in the ghetto.

The term "apartheid" has a specific historical meaning & it does not apply to conditions in the U.S.  Look it up.

It applies to South Africa.

I know what it means and I could just as well have used 'Jime Crowe' in my sentence.

From the posts you made in this thread, you appeared to be making an argument about racial superiority. .. or maybe it was just "cultural superiority." I don't think statistics bear out either of these povs being true.
 
The economic gap between blacks and "model minorities" is quickly shrinking as a truer cross section of these groups are admitted into the US.

And I don't know that much about Queens, but the one time I went to Jamaica, it didn't really seem all that "diverse" . I know there are nicer areas like Douglaston, and so-so commercial areas like LIC, but they are more than a few blocks from Jamaica.

Flushing is alright, along with Jamaica estates and Queens village.

Jamaica in the past 15 years has changed a lot. Once you are past hillside avenue and walk uphill, the area is pretty nice. Homes are past 600 k easy and rising despite housing slump.

Go past hillside and jamaica avenue and you are in the ghetto(towards hollis).. A few blocks alright.
