    Try this

    Google the New Haven, Ct. Firefighters, promotional test

    U will see a perfect example

    White firefighters had to go to the Supreme Court to get their promotions

    Cuz all the black ones were too dumb to pass

    But they still wanted to be promoted...

    What a joke

    Blacks had it made as slaves. A roof over their head and a job in the fields

    They haven't worked since

    Gail. Just because I promised Harry Reid is going to Hell that does not mean I am sending him to Hell.
    Hundreds of thousands have died in aircraft crashes, tornados, hurricanes and earthquakes in the past 5 years or so. Almost all God has sent to Heaven.
    There has been compassion with an early email to Chinese warning a million Chinese were about to be sent to Heaven. I included a gift of 4 songs. They put 2 and 2 together and evacuated 1.4 million people.
    Who am I? Does it matter? It took months to establish contact with VIP Media person. Then a Labor Day Weekend with 2 hurricanes and me being followed and discreetly gaurded by federal agents. The women agents blew their cover by looking me in the eyes and smiling joyfully.
    You don't know me. Black males are a blight on society in general. That is a statistical fact. I can say that. In fact I can say whatever I want. Why?
    Because in the end I will be the one who saves all your sorry a/sses. You see Obama stopping Iran? No.
    That leaves me asking God.

    I think the black farmers should be awarded the profit their property would have produced if not had been discriminated against. Along with the equvalent grants that was awarded to non black farmers. Also exempt from having to pay taxes on it for a limited period of time.

    Until Americans recognize their own prejudices, you fools who see nothing but race will become victoms of yourself. You are your own worst enemy. Wake up people.

    duke. No, I have you. You provide enough color in my life to cause me to want to vomit. You are a low I.Q.d racist piece of garbage. You blame white people for all the black man's problems when the fact is black men are incapable of recognizing they are genetically ape like. They as a group are too stupid, so instead of compensating for it, they bring it to the forefront and act like animals half the time.
    This is proven by crime statistics. Disproportionately black males are victimizing white people.

      Sgt. don't you think that you need to leave the trees out of this? Even the trees are taking vengeance on you people falling on your children, and other family members). We have always had Gods protection. That's way we are still here. According to the Bible, your time is up, the table is turning, you and the people that thinks like you...loose!!!

    The 1.5 Billion is just a drop in the bucket. They should make the bankers and other pay the famers the profit that they have made from the land that they set-up to be taken or stolen. Obama is trying to give the illusion that he is doing something for the Israelites from African, but this a bunch of crumbs. I will vote Republican 2016. At least they show their hand and we are not left in the blind.
