  1. K2 he is mercurial and headstrong. Some would say those are genius traits.
  2. We have a difference of opinion.
  3. Is Trump giving away his money No, he is not a lunatic. He is playing the game. And when he is done you will see how it works.
  4. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-43761555
  5. I think Troy and Pioneer make good points. The best solution haso to acknowledge the root problem, people's ability to handle responsibility or consider options. An endowment with a charter is more flexible and the money could go where it's needed most. Home economics classes so people learn about nutrition, how to shop, invest et cetera. This could even be an online course. The biggest problem is ignorance and lack of knowledge. If Black people didn't go to the movies every other year and invested the money . You would see large scale changes in two to three generations. We transfer our wealth for baubles and trinkets.
  6. I worked with a guy whose village in India sponsored his education. Or you can ask Black people to not watch movies for a year and donate that money. Factoring waste you should collect upwards of a billion. That could be the endowment. invest the proceeds. Half of te income gets reinvested the other half would go to scholarships. Fund advance degrees. Then every 10 years fund the next lowest degrees. In 30 years you should see some improvements .
  7. They mattered because they were property.
  8. Man I haven't heardone that in almost 30 years. T
  9. He is humorous I neither know or care about Pioneer's sexual preference , orientation or behaviour. I have little common ground with K2 or K1
  10. So edit that snithe out. or just send a message.
  11. Pioneer you have gotten funnier.
  12. No there weren't any fraternities at my school. Plus I don't generally join groups.
  13. I said that a month ago. Before all the news broke.
  14. I have stated in the beginning of March that we are watching the beginning of the end of Trump's presidency. As time goes on this will become obvious or I should stop political forecast.
  15. I still find people interesting. But racism in America is an iceberg. Even whites who are against racism are against the redistribution of wealth. So the effect and purpose of institutional racism is seperate I n their minds. The thinking is as follows slavery ended and do did racism. We are all equal.
  16. Pioneer you are right on both counts.
  17. Do you know what Einstein said about WWIII?
  18. Discussion are a great mental exercise. But how much changes for either side. So now I am interested I. Asking questions.
  19. Thanks for the complement Pioneer. I check out the site because of the conversation and I want to support Troy . I am a bit talked out. Hence my post the end of arguments.
  20. Alphabets Pictograms Ideograms Hieroglyphics Symbols Pictures The spectrum of expression.
  21. Justice moves slower the further you are from the American ideal . @harry brown thank you for being the spark plug.
  22. I thought for a second after reading the topic. I have no first hand knowledge of Native American or African Tradition. I don't even know what you mean. The only references I have are movies. The last time I experienced science or mathematics was mid 80's. I can't think of any tradition that I follow.
  23. I have said it elsewhere I am done talking about any kind of injustice. It's not pointless just fruitless in an emotional mental and spiritual wasteland that resides in too many ...
