@FinelineNation

.

"assume"??? Blacks n latinos are the most likely to be stopped and searched by the police but when stopped n searched, whites are twice as likely to be in possession of drugs. Do u really think that the war on drugs is REALLY against drugs???

.

A white man who has been to jail is more likely to get a job than a black man who has NEVER been to jail all qualifications being equal.

.

U probably have NEVER been victim of discrimination so please SHUT THE HELL UP

[MrShaneVicious]

@goldendoomer Wow, you're either totally clueless or totally racist. HBCU's do not teach blacks how awful whites are. Do you even know why they were founded ????

[goldendoomer]

@MrShaneVicious due to the current trend in what qualifies as a "college student", i don't doubt your comment at all. it has been proven that alot of state colleges are choosing blacks to fill the void and because it usually means guaranteed government money for the school. how about a MLK university? this country could use another learning institution that teaches blacks how awful white people are. it could be a 1 month college during the month of feb. and all who attend graduate.
