  1. Wow that is impressive . Troy
  2. yeah ok @Troy you seem to have amnesia Let me explain more p Black men die of old age or age related disease. But for young Black men homicide is the leading cause of death . The percentage is much higher than death from heart disease even though the aggregate numbers are smaller because more older people die. The larger point is that homicide shouldn't be a leading cause of death for any age group. Your statement about death from homicide being small is uncharacteristically insensitive and lacking in reason as well. Apparently it is. Strong women in general run into problems.
  3. How can you not know homicide is the leading cause of death for a segment of Black men. Claim that my inaccurate statement is totally wrong and then say you posted the chart. You also questioned why the chart was truncated. @Troy i said check it yourself then you say you posted it. Yeah go back you referenced but no table or link
  4. My point is that Trump is a Black Swan. There is no comparison. However we shall see
  5. Look up Black Wall Street @Troy No i uploaded that one Troy Florida will show you that whiteness trumps Wealth
  6. You have s break down in community across the board. You could be a life coach or start an etiquette school. When i was a kid girls and boys went to cotillions. It could be a successful alternative to nihilism.
  7. Either judge from your observation or think about what's different between the cultures.
  8. Have you read the article?
  9. He washer upstairs neighbour. She shot him because he was a noisy neighbour.
  10. Any ine of those items is impeachable. Once he has to release his tax returns its a wrap. What you feel to understand is that he us a different order of problem. Than any other self serving President.
  11. I know the pegcenrage if climate scientist is 97, can you post any link showing the percentage of any scientist. Geologists meteorologists physicists even chemists?
  12. The statement was unaccurate. I knew it was true for an age group but i didn't qualify my statement. And you wree correct to point out it is not the leading cause of death. Yet you persisted with your attack of it as completely wrong. When I included data from the CDC you still doubted its Veracity. I said why not check the source. Instead you continue to argue a point that has been corrected. Your arguments discount bith your intelligence and your vaulted opinion of science fact and objectivity. You also conflate issues. You not only cant quote me. I explivitly said despite all the problems i wouldn't change my race. @Troy is this really arguable, little Brother.
  13. Trump is monetising the Presidency, the level of corruption and self dealing is unprecedented. He has totally inverted the concept of public servant. His lack of understanding combined with his inability to listen, is incredibly dangerous. He is unpresidential, this is actually very problematic. Since has d the effect of inflaming domestic tensions and causing international conflicts. He has been useful to the wealthy. However the point where he wants to be emperor or Big Brother marks the end. Because the powers that are don't want their toys either destroyed or confiscated. The following terms are popping up more frequently Rule of Law, Constitutional Crisis. I have seen articles stating ge is destroying the country. Yet ge ua tge symptom if multiple cancerous attitudes. So in the end he will be the most unifying divisive President in history. Pride is still the most destructive vice.
  14. You are trying t explain statistics to me. But the information that eiukd help you to make your point is missing. Why do you believe that I need your help to analyse statistics? @Troy Can you quote me where i saud i would rather ve poor and white. You are confusing your position with mine. I said i would not want to be anyone else.
  15. The quoted percentage is for climate scientist. I had posted this in our earlier discussion. There is a big difference between the two statements
  16. Talk about cherry picking. Please respond to tbe full quote @Troy Show me where the data breaks down death by income. Or are you high? @Troy
  17. Let me just correct an often quoted phrase it isn't that 97% of scientist believe in global warming it's 97% of climate scientist. Think about this statement climate change is an incontrovertible fact. When have yiu ever heard scientist say anything close to that statement? You haven't because no rational scientist would ever say such a thing. Btw remember ut used to be called Global Warming, they changed it because some places got colder. In about 7 years I reckon you will hear dissenting voices
  18. @Troy my prediction was ahead if the curve your positions seem to be behind the curve. You thought Cosby was innocent. The cartoon of Serena not racist . And Trump being reelected.
  19. @Troyare you going to admit that homicide is leading cause of death for Black males ages 16-34. Or explain how that is totally wrong. it was imprecise because I didn't mention the age range. Saying it's completely wrong is wrong. Troy you may have multiple degrees but numerical comprehension is not your Forte.
  20. @Troy Firstly it's from the CDC you can check if you dont believe it. The leading cause of death for Black Males 16-34 is homicide. Its not cherry picking it is called a market segment or target market. I would have thought that would be understandable to you. I overestimated your capacity for reasoning and comprehension... again.
  21. Troy you believe in climate change because the information from scientist tell you it is true. Yiu think me irrational because i disagree with 97% of climate scientist. I dont believe them for the following reasons. I looked at close to 300 years of data. I actually had to read a bit about the different types of temperature measurements. I looked at the models. None are good at prediction. I looked at their statements. One is unscientific the other is deceptive. And finally i followed the flow of money of climate change foundations. I posted procon.org so you could look at both sides. Information is skewed you know that from selling books. Yet you accept what you are feed. I have said, what i say on every issue, think for yourself but act sensibly. I have never said someone's opinion is ridiculous or even wrong. I just try to add a differrnt perspective to reasobing or rational people. Belittling K2 doesn't strengthen your argument. It denonstrates that your arguments needs support. Trump is a Black Swan a catastrophic event that happens very infrequently it is the GFC of social political reason.
