in both percentage terms and absolute numbers, federal programs reduced poverty among working-age whites without a college degree more than they did among non-college-educated Hispanics, African Americans, or members of other races, and far more than they did among college-educated adults of any race. The number of these working-age whites, in fact, exceeded the combined number of non-college-educated blacks, Hispanics, and members of other races that made such gains.

Let me explain. When the fact is that “in percentage terms” whites take more federal anti-poverty money, and your 72% is an accurate statistic, then more than 72% of whites were helped relative to others. See how that works, son?

REID KNEELS BEFORE PRESEASON LOSS, RIPS JAY-Z DEAL AGAIN
BY




11816766.jpg


CAROLINA PANTHERS SAFETY ERIC REID KNEELED IN SILENT PROTEST BEFORE A 27-14 PRESEASON LOSS TO THE BUFFALO BILLS ON FRIDAY NIGHT.



AFTERWARD, HE TOOK ANOTHER SHOT AT THE PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN THE NFL AND HIP-HOP MOGUL JAY-Z, WHO SAID DURING AN INTRODUCTORY PRESS CONFERENCE THIS WEEK “I THINK WE’RE PAST KNEELING … I THINK IT’S TIME FOR ACTION.”



“FOR ONE, WHEN HAS JAY-Z EVER TAKEN A KNEE TO COME OUT AND TELL US THAT WE’RE PAST KNEELING?” SAID REID, PER ESPN. “YES, HE’S DONE A LOT OF GREAT WORK, A LOT OF GREAT SOCIAL JUSTICE WORK. BUT FOR YOU TO GET PAID TO GO INTO AN NFL PRESS CONFERENCE AND SAY THAT WE’RE PAST KNEELING? AGAIN, ASININE. PLAYERS COALITION 2.0, HE GOT PAID TO TAKE THE BULLETS THAT HE’S TAKING NOW BECAUSE WE’RE NOT HAVING IT.”



REID, WHO JOINED THE PANTHERS THREE WEEKS INTO THE 2018 SEASON, KNEELED BEFORE EVERY GAME LAST YEAR, ALTHOUGH NO PANTHERS TEAMMATES JOINED HIM.



ACCORDING TO THE CHARLOTTE OBSERVER, REID’S REASON FOR KNEELING IS TO “PROTEST RACIAL INEQUALITY AND SOCIAL INJUSTICE IN AMERICA.”



REID IS CLOSE FRIENDS WITH FORMER SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS QUARTERBACK COLIN KAEPERNICK FROM THEIR DAYS AS TEAMMATES WITH THE 49ERS. KAEPERNICK IS WELL KNOWN FOR HIS PROTESTS DURING THE ANTHEM. BOTH PLAYERS SETTLED A COLLUSION LAWSUIT WITH THE NFL LAST YEAR.



“JAY-Z MADE A MONEY MOVE. HE’S CAPITALIZED ON THIS SITUATION. NOBODY TO MY KNOWLEDGE TALKED ABOUT SOCIAL JUSTICE BEFORE COLIN STARTED PROTESTING,” SAID REID. “THAT WAS NOT A TOPIC OF THE NFL OFF THE FIELD. FOR JAY-Z TO COME IN AND PARTNER TO ADDRESS SOCIAL JUSTICE, DO IT BEHIND COLIN’S BACK, GET PAID TO DO IT … I DON’T HAVE WORDS.”



REID ALSO SUGGESTED THE NFL IS USING JAY-Z AS COVER FOR KAEPERNICK STILL NOT HAVING AN NFL JOB.



“THE (INJUSTICE) THAT’S HAPPENED TO COLIN, THEY GET TO SAY, ‘LOOK, WE CARE ABOUT SOCIAL JUSTICE, WE CARE ABOUT THE BLACK COMMUNITY BECAUSE WE’RE WITH JAY-Z,'” SAID REID.



“JAY-Z IS DOING THE WORK FOR THEM. WE ALL KNOW THAT IT’S UNJUST THAT COLIN ISN’T IN AN NFL LOCKER ROOM, THE WAY HE LOST HIS JOB. BUT THEY GET TO PRETEND THEY CARE ABOUT SOCIAL JUSTICE.”



REID, 27, ENDED UP STARTING ALL 13 GAMES HE WAS IN UNIFORM FOR THE PANTHERS LAST SEASON. HE WAS SIXTH ON THE TEAM WITH 71 TACKLES WITH ONE SACK AND ONE INTERCEPTION. IN SIX NFL SEASONS, FIVE WITH THE 49ERS, THE FORMER NO. 18 OVERALL SELECTION IN THE 2013 DRAFT HAS 398 CAREER TACKLES AND 11 INTERCEPTIONS.

The US Congress has decided to scrap the Constitution
By David L. Rosenthal
The United States House of Representatives passed a resolution in March 2019 in which appears the following text:

Whereas Muslims and people perceived to be Muslim are subjected to false and dangerous stereotypes and myths including unfair allegations that they sympathize with individuals who engage in violence or terror or support the oppression of women, Jews, and other vulnerable communities ...

By passing that resolution, including the text cited above, the House of Representatives has established with painful clarity either that the members of the House are entirely ignorant with respect to the contents of the sacred texts of Islam, which clearly, repeatedly, and enthusiastically call for the hatred, discrimination, subjugation, terrorization, persecution, enslavement, rape, and mass murder of non-Muslims, or that the members of the House who voted to pass that resolution wish to deceive Americans with regard to the contents of those sacred texts.

The House of Representatives condemned Islamophobia. This means that House members condemn superior moral values and condemn criticism of fascism; genocide; terrorism; and a long series of violent, perverse, barbaric atrocities and abominations. Essentially, they condemn the traditional moral foundations of America, as well as of many other nations. They condemn principles of the Constitution, of the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights, and of the Almighty God of Abraham. And they condemn all American laws that criminalize all of the deranged, fascistic, and perverse practices authorized under Islamic law. The House of Representatives has forfeited its last vestige of legitimacy, as a legislative body, of honor, and of sanity.

The resolution further states the following:

Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That the House of Representatives—

(9) encourages all public officials to confront the reality of anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, racism, and other forms of bigotry, as well as historical struggles against them, to ensure that the United States will live up to the transcendent principles of tolerance, religious freedom, and equal protection as embodied in the Declaration of Independence andencourages all public officials to confront the reality of anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, racism, and other forms of bigotry, as well as historical struggles against them, to ensure that the United States will live up to the transcendent principles of tolerance, religious freedom, and equal protection as embodied in the Declaration of Independence and the first and 14th amendments to the Constitution.

The members of the House have encouraged all public officials to confront the "bigotry" of those who understand and openly declare that Islamofascism is an unlawful, barbaric abomination. The members of the House have equated "Islamophobia," the aversion to Islamic atrocities, with hatred of others based of their faith-based support of moral, ethical standards. The members of the House have caused to be immortalized in print the tragic fact that they believe the vile lie that anyone has a right, acknowledged by America's Constitution, to commit all of the crimes, perversions, and atrocities called for by Islamic law.

The members of the House have lost their collective mind.

But surely Americans can still look to their Senate to rescue Congress from the utter insanity of the House of Representatives. Surely the Senate must confront the House to set it straight on its senseless, lawless expressions. But alas, it is not so.

The fact is that the Senate and the House of Representatives are in full agreement in their insane expressions of disdain for truth, for American law, for the freedom to express truth, and for the lawful limits of their delegated power.

In fact, on April 5, 2017, all 100 United States senators voted to passSenate Resolution 118, in which they defined as criminal anyone who displays any form of bias against Islam. They also asked federal, state, and local law enforcement officials to investigate and bring charges against anyone who displays any form of bias against Islam.

The 100 senators and the majority of the members of the House have decided that their moral sense is greater than that of other Americans. They have decided to grant themselves the power, not delegated to them by the Constitution, to determine that foreign laws that call for violation of American laws and egregious abuses against any non-Muslim are acceptable in America, as well as morally equivalent to American laws that classify the practices called for by Islamic law as criminal. They have defied American laws, rights, values, and norms, and reality, and their oath to support and defend America's Constitution. They are daft.

The Eric Garner case: Another cop fired for doing his job
By Bob Weir
Inasmuch as we live in an era that supports the bad guys over the good guys, it was inevitable that New York City police officer Daniel Pantaleo would end up being fired for doing his job during an arrest situation in which a black man died. It all began on July 17, 2014 during a routine police assignment. About 3:30 P.M., Eric Garner, a 43-year-old black man, was approached by NYC cops as he was standing in front of a beauty supply store on Staten Island. Acting on a complaint, the cops confronted Garner and accused him of selling untaxed cigarettes, a violation of New York State Law. After telling him he was under arrest, officer Pantaleo tried to handcuff Garner, who was 6'2" and weighed about 400 pounds.

Garner resisted the officers' attempts to put the manacles on him, slapping their hands away. It was then that Pantaleo placed his arm around Garner's neck and tried to pull him to the ground. The man was heard saying, "I can't breathe" but continued to struggle. According to cops on the scene, Garner lost consciousness. An ambulance removed him to a hospital, and he was pronounced dead an hour later. The NYC medical examiner found that death resulted from compression of the neck and chest during the physical restraint, adding that asthma, heart disease, and obesity were contributing factors. There was no damage to the trachea (windpipe) or the neck bones.

Why of course they are...

While originally the term referred primarily to the Hispanos of New Mexico within the United States,[36] today, organizations in the country use the term as a broad catchall to refer to persons with a historical and cultural relationship with Spain regardless of race and ethnicity.[1][2] The U.S. Census Bureau defines the ethnonym Hispanic or Latino to refer to "a person of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, South or Central American, or other Spanish culture or origin regardless of race"[37] and states that Hispanics or Latinos can be of any race, any ancestry, any ethnicity.[38] Generically, this limits the definition of Hispanic or Latino to people from the Caribbean, Central and South America, or other Hispanic (Spanish) culture or origin, regardless of race. Latino can refer to males or females, while Latina refers to only females.

Because of the technical distinctions involved in defining "race" vs. "ethnicity," there is confusion among the general population about the designation of Hispanic identity. Currently, the United States Census Bureau defines six race categories:[39]

  • White or Caucasian
  • Black or African American
  • American Indian or Alaska Native
  • Asian
  • Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander
  • Some Other Race
According to census reports, of the above races the largest number of Hispanic or Latinos are of the White race, the second largest number come from the Native American/American Indian race who are the indigenous people of the Americas. The inhabitants of Easter Island are Pacific Islanders and since the island belongs to Chile they are theoretically Hispanic or Latinos. Because Hispanic roots are considered aligned with a European ancestry (Spain/Portugal), Hispanic/Latino ancestry is defined solely as an ethnic designation (similar to being Norse or Germanic). Therefore, a person of Hispanic descent is typically defined using both race and ethnicity as an identifier—i.e., Black-Hispanic, White-Hispanic, Asian-Hispanic, Amerindian-Hispanic or "other race" Hispanic.

A 1997 notice by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget defined Hispanic or Latino persons as being "persons who trace their origin or descent to Mexico, Puerto Rico, Cuba, Central and South America, and other Spanish cultures."[40] The United States Census uses the ethnonym Hispanic or Latino to refer to "a person of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, South or Central American, or other Hispanic culture or origin regardless of race."[37]
