Another Migrant Caravan Leaves Honduras En Route to US Border - - - https://survivalmagazine.org/news/another-migrant-caravan-leaves-honduras-en-route-to-us-border/ https://timenewsdesk.com/2022/01/another-migrant-caravan-leaves-honduras-en-route-to-us-border/ https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/01/another-migrant-caravan-leaves-honduras-en-route-us-border/

The analogy I made was to simplify the rationale that virtually anyone could apply to a sane citizenship enforcement effort; which is what we currently lack. The misdirected contextual call-outs and references in your (entire) response (and not just the quoted phrase) remind me of a circular firing squad; a bit nonsensical, for me. Suggest a read of the U.S. Constitution first; take your time. Lesson here, don't debate with the irrational. I'll leave it at that.

Do you know how you sound?

Sovereignty must always rule. A Simple Analogy: Your personal home is your sovereign kingdom. Would you allow anyone off the street to simply walk into your home, grab a bite to eat, displace you from your easy lounger, kick you out of your bed, shower in your bathroom, take your wallet, and walk right out the door unchallenged? Think again. Eric Adams kowtow's to the ideology of The Left. New York is headed into political, financial and social oblivion for at least the next two generations. All of those deceptive liberal whites and ignorant low-information blacks who keep voting for the same slate of dog crap over and over again, are going to continue to get exactly what they deserve - and that is, sheer 'misery' on steroids.

What does it mean to Be black as opposed to Identify as black?

Yes and IMO, it could also be paired with the social designation of being 'black'. Perhaps being 'black' is simply a construct of the mind, as well. -

Let's qualify that - facts are indeed what happens at any given point in time. The distinction lies in whether or not those facts are 'made up' or 'real'. -
Best description I've head in a long time. Also, in this opinion, directly through his brand, Tyler Perry has become nothing more than THE master creator and purveyor of horribly condescending buffoonery that denigrates the very soul and integrity of black America. IMO, the bad part is that people actually think that what Tyler Perry creates is beneficial to their personal condition, and it is not. Sans normal differences in perspectives, you have made some very good points, indeed.

And yes, that's why people are entitled to their own opinions, but they are not entitled to make up their own set of facts. In my view, Paula will always be biracial. I see a lot of whining in this fragment. A smart person would stop complaining about what they perceive as racial inequities and instead, do something to improve their potential success. As I've said and implied many times before, black America needs to stop blaming the rest of the world because they themselves were born black. -

Remember, white folks don't occupy themselves with being white, but they do spend a lot of time staying white. I do not fault them for not having any control over who they are; instead, the issue is how they behave, which may be directly applicable to how the rest of us behave, as well. -

As a side note, having personally lived with (real) pure sub-Saharan black Africans before, they view the somewhat absconded term "African American" as pure nonsense. IMO, that's one of the problems of identity-driven societies. Paula Patton is biracial, any way you cut it; she's neither black or white - she's a combination thereof. Very good point. Being black, white, etc. goes well beyond and much deeper than the physical characteristics that anyone possesses. -
It's sadder that black people don't aggressively assert and apply themselves and outperform others, instead of playing the race card and blaming other people for their plight. No one else is paying attention, so you have to take it upon yourself and 'execute'.
