Ron Paul Statement On The Fed's Bailout Of Europe
From Ron Paul
Statement on the Fed's Continued Euro Bailout
The Fed's latest actions in cooperating with foreign central banks to undertake liquidity swaps of dollars for foreign currencies is another reason why Congress needs enhanced power to oversee and audit the Fed. Under current law Congress cannot examine these types of agreements. Those who would argue that auditing the Fed or these agreements with central banks harms the Fed's independence should reevaluate the Fed's supposed independence when the Fed bails out Europe so soon after President Obama promised US assistance in resolving the Euro crisis.
Rather than calming markets, these arrangements should indicate just how frightened governments around the world are about the European financial crisis. Central banks are grasping at straws, hoping that flooding the world with money created out of thin air will somehow resolve a crisis caused by uncontrolled government spending and irresponsible debt issuance. Congress should not permit this type of open-ended commitment on the part of the Fed, a commitment which could easily run into the trillions of dollars. These dollar swaps are purely inflationary and will harm American consumers as much as any form of quantitative easing.
The Fed is behaving much as it did during the 2008 financial crisis, only this time instead of bailing out politically well-connected too-big-to-fail firms it is bailing out profligate government spending. Citizens the world over deserve better than this. They deserve sound money that cannot be manipulated and created out of thin air by central planners who promise printed prosperity. Fiat money caused this European crisis and the financial crisis before it. More fiat money is not the cure. The global fiat currency system has proven itself a failure, we need real monetary reform. We need sound money.

Wonder if this Paul missive heats up Fed attacks amongst the Congess Critters.
No matter how many times they call the Fed in front of Congress, it'll continue to do what Goldman wants
Anybody noticed how NPR is avoiding Ron Paul? I listen to their morning & evening programs on my way to work/home and they never, ever mention Ron Paul. I used to respect them a bit but it goes to show that they're just part of the propaganda machine.
Spend a minute and voice your complaint at their Website. They need to hear from more of us.

Not-so stealthy QE3 Bitchez!
Ron Paul, bitchez
if a tree falls in the forest of the MSM, does it make a sound?
Not if it lands on the presstitutes.
But I'm sure that the REST of the MSM's message on a lot of "sacred truths" is totally 100% true, eh?
If you believe the opposite of what they say on everything except peak oil then you will be 99% correct (small margin of error due to slight humility).
the MSM is *correct* on Peak oil? WTF
WAIT: Look over there, Iran is on fire! Pay no attention to the chairsatan behind the curtain.
Dear Mr. Paul:
I know that it will be impossible for you to win with zero news coverage but I want you to fight on anyway, and I am planning to cast my last ever vote for you as a write in no matter what because there is not another person running besides you that even I could not do better than, not a big ego here but a very dim view of all other candidates. Today the Fed set aside the last pretense of American freedom by bailing out European banks/governments, and congress and the president applaud. Aside from the utter lack of shame on the part of Europe which refuses to get it's own house in order and would rather take trillions of our dollars than actually fix their own mess, the Fed should not have the authority to do this. Congress has also decided to ratify the indefinite imprisonment of American citizens, without charge. I cannot live in such a nation.
All of the MSM outlets are now blacking out any mention of RP. I guess if you are going to purchase the media, you make sure you purchase the entire media. Given the constitutional importance of the media, I would call this sort of control treasonous.
It's up to individuals like you to help spread the word and start pressuring your Congressional Representatives. Sound money if you want it. Have you asked your Congressman to co-sponsor or support HR 1098?
oh yes, by all means call your representatives. As if those fuckers are going to do a damn thing to spill the soup bowl they're eating from
They wouldn't piss on you, (or any of us) if you caught fire at their very feet.
Fortunately, a bunch of people took a more constructive attitude in telling their reps to support an audit of the Fed back in the day. It finally forced Barney Frank to let Ron's bill have life after more than half the House was co-sponsoring it. If your Rep only hears from one or two constituents, it's not going to bother him. If he hears from enough mad as hell voters though, self preservation instincts kick in. At any rate, it costs you much less to pick up the phone or send an email / letter / fax than to do nothing and give tacit support to their shenanigans.
Whew, glad that bill passed, we're saved!
their shenanigans will be their undoing. Time and Greed have gotten us to this point, near the crux. they couldn't help it, it's in the sociopaths nature to destroy himself Soon they'll learn all about self-preservation instincts, and not because of stern talking to's from over the phone.
You totally missed my point. I understand your fatalist POV, but it is still possible to pressure Congress to act according to the will of their constituents. Constituents have to be willing to speak, however.
let me ask......when your constituents provide you with 2 trll a yr in revenue..
and your other constituents provide you of at least 10 trll a yr....
who is your constituents?
I think the Bawney Fwank exit is very interesting, considering he could do damn near anything with total impunity. Why go now? Is he leaving because he's going to suck off the private industry teat (vs what he's used to sucking), or is he in the "unfavored" category now?
with all due respect, is doing nothing better?
Fair question. Nothing, or spending your free time networking locally, reloading, prepping, learning? There's a big difference. refusing to waste time in a rigged game is not nothing, it just means I have that much more time to spend elsewhere than upon self ensnarement.
There is no saving the system. you cannot win because that's the way it was designed. It's just an illusion to keep you placid.

"Sound" money to some people these days is the unique ringing noise certain types of coins make when dropped.
Exactly! +1000
Members here mostly, Want To Believe? Wasn't that the X-Files movie title?
If Ron Paul had a clue about how he could "make a difference", he would already have done so. The men we entrusted to safeguard our money have stolen it ALL and used a tiny portion to bribe our elected officials and government workers wherever the money we entrusted to them needed to be applied.
These are the same fucking bastards from Wall St. and City Of London who fomented the Bolsheviks and Communist Revolution to rob the Tsar and keep Russia and the rest of the world off-balance while it looted them as well.
Grow the fuck up. The system has been perverted into their perfection and they have looted U.S. continually over the past 3 years. Every bit of money that could be looted under auspices of Federal, State, and Local govt has been LOOTED or put onto the publics back using debt financings based on FRAUD.
Your vote means even less than your opinion.
If you haven't taken action to secure the future for your family by now, you have failed to observe what the Looters have arranged for you; namely, destruction, starvation, or outright murder.
Only you can take the steps which might mean your bloodline will survive.
The elections have been rigged for years and nothing ever is changed or repaired.
All the seedstock has been eaten, and there is nothing left to build on or plant; UNLESS you make provision for self & family. The political circus is just a charade.
Paul ought to be leading a Revolution, rather than scratching his head in wonder and being Mr. Nice Guy. He is too old, too timid, and knows there is nothing to save should he actually gain power. We are long out of what Naomi Wolfe called "that awkward stage", but nobody will voice what must be done to those who put America and Americans into financial ruin and made sure there could be no rescue...
PLEASE, PLEASE!!!! WHATEVER YOU DO! DON'T VOTE! ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRAT, PLEASE DON'T VOTE FOR RON PAUL,
OBAMA NEEDS YOU.
Obama is Ron Paul is Newt. Just like Dole was Clinton was Perot.
It's always two wings, same shitbird. The 3rd (or Green, Libertarian, Independent) is just an insurance policy of distraction and divisiveness. Play their game and you lose.
Save you gas money and time and buy silver rounds or 7.62 instead. They won't fail you.
Most idiotic comment ever on ZH. Bullshit. You tell this to Gene Sharp and see what he has to say about it.
Ron Paul is the only sane voice in the chorus of global madness.
There are a few I like, but Paul is the best because I agree with him on monetary policy and the constitution.
I have a hard time with some of his policy because it is obvious that there will be systemic failure. Then I remember I am an optimist when it comes to human ingenuity, and I realize that we will remake this once great Nation into how we see fit.
For example:
I wish we could have public schools for all. But the problem is that the public school system has turned into a prison system for children. Once it collapses I think maybe there will be more freedom.
I can only be an optimist and stand up with people to decide our fate. Taking power of our destiny is our only choice.
By appealing to tons of bullshit about the Constitution and other patriotic crap, Congressman Ron Paul is able to seduce his brute and ignorant constituency while doing nothing at all in Congress (a clever way to make easy money). He is just part of the establishment while pretending to be a "genuine patriot." Dr. Paul is also a mediocre version of one of Leo Strauss' categories of society: the Gentlemen
The gentlemen, are lovers of honour and glory. They are the most ingratiating towards the conventions of their society – that is, the illusions of the cave. They are true believers in God, honour, and moral imperatives. They are ready and willing to embark on acts of great courage and self-sacrifice at a moment's notice.
Besides that, Americans are a bunch of stupid animals easy to manipulate and subdue. The sooner the US economy collapses the better, so these brutes will finally learn NOT to live beyond their means.
No one can under estimate the measure status quo will take to undermine Ron Paul election.

Paul voted against the Patriot act, he voted against Bernanke's renomination, he voted against the Afghan and Iraq wars....come on, he walks the walk.
The Constitution is all we have to defend ourselves from the fascist government(s).
You tell me Americans are stupid, but how about that there are plenty of stupid people in the world. But we do not care about them, they are followers, and they will be lead to water or not. We must lead now, and Paul is a proven leader.
Paul voted against the Patriot act, he voted against Bernanke's renomination, he voted against the Afghan and Iraq wars....come on, he walks the walk.
Let me point out the obvious, albeit unpopular truth: ALL of those things passed despite Paul's vote against. Which reinforces my point about Paul: resonant and effectual are very, very different concepts.
Effectual, in this congress? You are saying Paul is inefectual, because of the Congress that surrounds him? This thought lacks sound logic.
You say he's a proven leader...show me what he's led that actually has been passed. How many followers does he have in Congress? He is an isolated element, even if he's the most sane one in there.
Don't get me wrong. I think the guy is a great voice. I'm just pointing out the reality of what it amounts to in practical terms.
You're right, MK, we'd be much better off with no one like Ron Paul, because he hasn't won the battles (the War still lay ahead, however), rather than someone like him, who has influenced millions and planted seeds that will inevitably grow into might oaks.
/sarc/
Actually, I was thinking we'd be better with 454 Ron Pauls. Just turn your lens around and you'll see what I'm really saying. :D
If that were the case, I'd think you'd be lauding his accomplishments, rather than dwelling upon what you are at least implicitly alleging to be his legislative failures (which, as you and I both know, were the result of a corrupt majority in Congress and the Executive Branch, and not the fault of Ron Paul).
*have not junked you.
No, what I'm saying is that if you remove the impediment of the people around him, you might get something done. That, sir, is more practical than expecting him to overcome the current situation. Transforming him from ineffectual to effectual has to do with changing the people around him.
Eventually you'll latch on to this and realize I'm on your side, dood.
As a practical matter, don't you have to replace those people "around him" with people who have the same or similar core beliefs about federalism, adherence to the Constitution, etc., as Ron Paul?
And if so, wasn't Ron Paul's tenure in Congress necessary as the seed that sprouted into a changing of the corrupt guard?
I don't see how real, productive change is possible if you supplant the criminals in Congress of today with criminals in the future.
Just once, I wish somebody would call me "Sir"... without adding, "You're making a scene..."
You can't get rid of them.
Imagine Bartlett's statement in a boardroom in a conference. ONE guy understands the exponential. He tries to convince the group that at time X, the expectations will be 32x present. The rest of the room can't grasp it and they say, naw, it won't be higher than double now (because they did a linear extrapolation). Smart guy uses maths on the board. Rest of group doesn't get it and VOTES that their estimation is correct. The decision comes out which is provably, mathematically, apodictically WRONG.
This is the Downing Effect; it happens ALL THE TIME. I have nothing but issues at work with these people because I am expected to SELL or use political means to make the right outcome happen. The truth simply doesn't cut it.
I would wager that most of the Congressclowns have the "pure heart, empty head" that we discussed in law school. They don't know, they can't grasp, so they hide in the safety of superior numbers or else wrongly believe that such a thing is simply beyond ANYONE's grasp (because they don't get it).
Advanced mathematics strikes most people as a con job.
First post and glad to be here.
My question is how can the man be a leader when the rest of congress is a bunch of puppets? Hard to lead Congress when the majority are bought and paid for. All congress knows how to say is "yes master."
The whateveryoudodon'tvote trolls are out in force. Means some polling we don't see looks good for Ron Paul!
What do you recommend?
Focus your energy on replacing the people around him. :D
Good answer
The bigger we can make the debt bubble bomb for maximum effect before it explodes the better. I say print another hundred trillion.
LOL! Your placement in this thread is comedic timing at its best.
Why thank you very much. All a part of the plan. It's a very complicated plan and it's working. Just about ready to go boom.
That is my reaction to peak oil. Burn all that shit up FASTER!
Absolutely. Pull the fucking bandaid off, already.
The Law (the Constitution) is NOT all we have to defend ourselves from fascist governments. Laws never protect people. Laws provide a code of conduct. Governments are instituted to define this code and provide punishment for those who violate it. When the government itself is the law-breaker, we have a God-given right... nay, a DUTY to replace that government.
The two things that ACTUALLY protect us from fascist government are actually related:
1) government fearing revolution
2) revolution
Lets pray the first works, because the second will really suck.
I don't mean to get technical to the point of triviality, but I actually think it's significant that people should realize that the Constitution is more a restriction on the laws that government be allowed to enact, rather than a law or regulation itself.
The Constitution protects inherent RIGHTS & LIBERTIES from the infringement of governmental overreaching (which are often in the form of laws or regulations), whereas laws & regulations must not offend the Constitution (and therefore, the inherent rights and liberties of citizens) in order to be enforced and/or upheld - there are different litmus tests employed by the courts to determine whether laws do or do not violate the constitution, based on the area or matter that the purported law pertains to, such as strict scrutiny, etc. (ultimately the constitutionality of which are ultimately decided upon by the judicial branch - when an appropriate challenge on constitutional grounds has been lodged).
We need not do anything affirmative to avail ourselves of the protection against governmental abuse the Constitution guarantees. The protections of rights and liberties it offers are a shield of protection, and do not have to be actively utilized, like a sword.
*2 great examples of passive protections of rights and liberties protected by the Constitution are 1) the right to just and fair compensation in the event of government taking of property, and 2) the right to bear arms. As we now know, the rights recognized by the Constitution depend on both all branches of government, but especially the judicial branch, as it alone has the ability to overrule legislative and executive branch abuses of the Constitution.
Wanker -
American animals are no different than any other part of the world. I guarantee you the animals you reside with are just as easily manipulated. Ron Paul, however, is not one of those animals. ANY society will live beyond their means when crack cocaine financed money is thrown in their faces on a daily basis. It's the age old question. Who deserves more blame...the crack dealer or the user? I say both but going after the distributor sure does solve the problem much faster.
wanklord - your post is the stupidest I've read here on ZH in quite awhile. "Americans are a bunch of stupid animals easy to manipulate and subdue." - as opposed to the people in your country right? Where all of you have genius IQs, have politicians that are incorruptable, and a constituency that is beyond manipulation right? You are an asshole if you believe the BS you just wrote - far worse then any of us here in the U.S.
Wanklord is a copy-and-paste paid shill. He has a collection of pre-written comments for a few topics, and pastes one in the comment thread of any article that is at least marginally related to one of his pre-written screeds. His lack of response to any followups to his boilerplate garbage indicates that he never reads any other comments. I doubt he even reads the articles that he comments on, other than a quick glance to see if it covers one of the topics he's paid to post about. The extent of his involvement in the comments he makes is nothing more than CTRL-C and CTRL-V.
yes, I think his masters are still pissed about all the opium their ancesotrs were forced to buy with silks and other treasures.
now for a public service announcement:
remember, dirty 3rd worlders, (and all you pall mall smoking, birkenstock wearing butch haircut having lesbos) that you're reading this courtesy of Western Males. Piss and moan and revise history all you want, but you'll not change the truth.
carry on.
autoposted on anything concerning paul... can we get this troll deleted already?
Name calling, how sophmoric. Nay, grade school. Got anything else?
Considering that the actions of congress have garnered them a record low approval rating of 14%, accusing him of not participating in the madness is hardly derogatory.
"All that lemming does is stand on the edge!"
Try again. No, don't.
Screw you wanker POS.
""stupid animals" relative to what?
Network with your like-minded neighbors and get prepared to vote each other in as delegates on the precinct level. That is how you latch on to power without having great wealth. Be prepared for some face to face confrontation with members of the Republican political machine.
Excellent post - my across the street neighbor and I are doing exactly this in Austin.
WRONG!
The public schools system WORKS WELL for whites and asians! Among industrial nations, if you exclude blacks and hispanics, we have the 3rd highest scores. If you exclude blacks and hispanics, nearly ALL of our socioeconomic indicators rise to THE TOP of the world!
Why is it that you people CANNOT take the mental risk of rejecting the MSM's message on subjects such as this??? WTF is the matter with you? You say that the schools system just indoctrinates kids with propaganda and race equality IS ONE OF THE things they drum HARDEST in the schools!
One would ASSUME that you people would make a prima facie conclusion that THIS TOO is probably also propaganda, yet you do exactly the OPPOSITE. You not only defend but REINFORCE it; castigating anyone who dares question the fucking premise at all!
I cannot for the life of me understand how you idiots REJECT water from this "MSM" well as contaminated on so many topics, but in this one particular one, you CHUG THE BUCKET of it.
lol, sure, but the other nations have to keep counting their own welfare queens.
Your hate makes you stupid. This is a good thing for the world.
Tmosley the commentator is correct. I know facts are hard to digest. Just like the MSM likes to mock Texas's education system but when the hispanics are stripped out of the equation in Texas and other states Texas wins and has better scores on these stupid tests. I do not live in Texas but I do accept facts even though the previous commentator is caustic.
Herein lies the problem when facts are presented most simply ignore them and call people names. Go check the statistics yourself and you will find the same facts.
THEY DON'T HAVE THEM, YOU FUCKING IDIOT.
THAT IS PRECISELY HOW all-white nations like Norway are at the top every year. They DO NOT HAVE blacks and hispanics as 25% of their population causing their violent crime rates to be more than quadruple what they would otherwise be nor dragging down their average scores and achievement levels in schools.
Blacks at EVERY INCOME GROUP trail whites in the same group in average SAT scores by 140 points. Again, IN EVERY INCOME GROUP. Rich black kids score as well as POOR white kids. You can very easily look this shit up.
As far as crime goes, blacks commit homicide at 10x the rate of whites. One group of 5% of the population commits more than half the crime. Hispanics commit the lion's share of the remainder. In an integrated city like NYC, well in excess of 90% of the homicides and shootings were by these TWO GROUPS. The numbers of them committed by asians or whites was almost statistically NEGLIGIBLE.
I have no HATE, you fucking RETARD. In fact, no sooner do I say what I say than YOU SHOW UP to not only DEFEND, but REINFORCE the MSM message of racial equality.
You can either trust the MSM on this or you can trust the DATA and your lyin' eyes. I find it ODD that so many of you can't get through a paragraph without blasting the MSM for having a propaganda agenda and being nothing but prevaricators and yet, ON THIS ONE TOPIC, you not only say they speak the truth, but you go even further to excoriate ANYONE who questions it.
The whole educational system needs to "go down", too. It is proven to be a globalist/communist/Agenda 21 indoctrination mind-control Tavistock dehumanizing prison system.
The only way to "return to America's greatness" is to destroy the current "education" system and allow free individuals to create TRUE education. I have learned more in my 5 year self-education than I learned in all of my years of INDOCTRINATION!
but then people wouldn't believe in racial equality and we cannot have that.
Freedom would be the right or ability to admit the real, as opposed to the wished.
"Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows." - George Orwell, 1984.
Trouble is he'd be blamed and demonized for the systemic failure by the O'Reilly's and well the entire Mainstream forest.
That's if he didn't have a sodium-morphate apple-pie heart attack first.
Ron Paul is the only sane voice in the chorus of global madness.
Umm...not really. He isn't the only sane voice, he just happens to have a particular platform and stands out because he is surrounded by drones. But irrespective of how correct he may be, I don't think it's a particularly far-reaching voice because it emanates from within the system. Paul makes for a nice hero, but I think it's misplaced to marvel at him as a solution.
Again, irrespective of how correct he may be, he's not going to be the next President. He's not shaped any legislation that actually gets passed. The fact is that things have gotten markedly worse since he's been a Congressman. Is that his fault? Of course not. But it gets to the heart of whether he can be anything but a sane voice.
Just my two cents...
Why do you think he can't get any legislation passed? Huh?
Answer: Because the entire Congress is a bunch of bitches for the New World Order and a traitor of the Constitution.
What do you want? For him to gain "consensus" and compromise his principles simply to get an f-ing bill passed?
Ever heard of the Hegelian Dialectical Process? That's your homework for tonight!
Settle down, dawg. If you want to solve the problem, follow your own advice (see your 'Answer') and work on replacing the people around him. That has a higher probability of success than wishing Paul into the Presidency.
Sorry for being truthful and practical.
BTW, I'm sure you're aware that the first record of Hegelian Dialectic occurred during Paul's second missionary journey, as recorded in the book of Acts. Might be interesting for you to review how Paul and Philo dealt with the Sophists. :D
I can only "solve the problem" of Congress in the smallest of ways, restricted to my own district. Others would have to participate in this "change", but unfortunately, the electorate is extremely ignorant of the true principles of liberty.
Glad to see you know your Dialectic info! I will be honest that I did not think about Paul's interaction with the sophists (Acts 17) in that way. Of course, I am sure they had quite the lively discussion in Athens. I know he tried to appeal to their form of philosophy...trying to "speak their language". He was only partially successful.
Touche, Mr. Smarty Pantz.
Actually, Paul has a very good chance of defeating Obama IF he wins the GOP nomination. His huge, passionate support base combined with the GOP faithful should be more than sufficient to unseat the current occupant. Without his support base, the GOP has no chance with any of the "top tier" ruptured ducks they parade as candidates and the big O is virtually assured a second term.
It's all a matter of just how bad the GOP wants Obama gone.
@ Redpill, NO TRUE!

I have my Dow 12000 hat (purchased in 1999) and my Ron Paul hat out.
Which one should I embrace and wear?
The Dow 12000 hat is frayed and shabby looking from being put on and taken off so many times, and it reeks of rat & cockroach infested garbage (the kind found in the dark recesses that lurk within allegedly grandiose Manhattan skyscrapers).
The Ron Paul hat looks just purchased, despite being quite old, and has an aroma to it reminiscent of [m]ayflowers, freedom and rationality.
*Ron Paul - One of the select few, and possibly only, legislator in the modern era who has remained steadfastly respectful of the Constitution of the United States as the ultimate check on government expansion, the concept that the United States is a Republic that is governed by law based on Constitutional principles & Constitutional RIGHTS of the citizenry, and not the varying opinions or decrees of men, and that the government is to be retrained, and not empowered, by our Constitution. Whatever one thinks of particular opinions Dr. Paul holds, it can not be denied that he forms his votes based not on popular sentiment of the time or corrupt lobbyist/corporate/MIC/CronyKleptocratic influence (or even his own personal, individualistic beliefs), but rather, he forms his votes based on an objective analysis of what our Constitution either states or does not state (and speaking of 'states,' Ron Paul is all for the federalist notion that states should be far more free of federal mandates, also consistent with the Constitution).
I have been following RP media blackout. Compared to most major news outlets, I think NPR has given RP decent coverage. If you are only looking at internet news, you will notice most of the RP coverage is on small fringe news outlets. The major outlets cover him in their second tier blogs, but rarely in their main page or in print.
But...you're all aboard on some things out of the MSM, right?
Shit like stormfront is "fringe"...so when it's RP, fringe = good, MSM = bad, but when it is race-related, fringe = bad, MSM = good?
Got it.
You lost me trav. Maybe fringe wasn't the right term.
It seems to me that people who only consume MSM get negligible Ron Paul exposure even though you find plenty of RP coverage on the web if you are looking for it.
Boy, you sure are stretching it today.
What's wrong, a darkie step on your new Keds or something?
if by that you mean I am fucking two black chicks, then yeah, "darkie stepped on my keds."
See, I have no hate. I treat individuals as individuals.
I know that people like you are simply not intelligent enough to do this. DO NOT WORRY, I am not going to genocide anyone. I know that you would, and stupid people like you have brains that are incapable of holding more than TWO possible outcomes.
I can find a solution point in between murder them all and do nothing.
Holy shit Trav "Stormfront" fucking really?! REALLY?!!!! Wow, just wow. Not sure how you can be so on the mark about so many things and then just stupidly racist. Your pap about race essentialism above is bullshit. If you rearrange those stats by health and wealth of individuals a truer picture emerges. Poor white trash is just as uneducated as poor black people. Environmental (eg dumping grounds for waste like east at Louis) and structural rascism explain the numbers you are pointing at far better than your racist essentialism. It's all about structural poverty and related health and educational opportunities, along with cultural values and legacies not melanin count you jackass. If you want to argue cultural values you might have a point but race is meaningless.

Coming from one of the original badass posters from the "junk" days means a lot. Thanks.
Fuck you too, then.
You fuckers back your shit up with some evidence. Back it up.
Don't tell me we're all equal, prove it.
I can point you directly to EMPIRICAL STUDIES where blacks trail whites in every income group by around 140 on the SAT. Blacks who earn 200k+ per year, their kids trail whites in the same income group by 140 points. They score about as well as POOR whites.
Everything you believe is WRONG.
Let me ask you something, Ms....just exactly WHERE WAS IT and on WHAT BASIS did you come to CONCLUDE these things that you believe? It sure as fuck didn't come from studying any data.
It came from the MSM's narrative on this topic. And, like I said before, YOU GULP THE BUCKET while in your next breath claiming these mfers are nothing but LIARS on everything they say, nothing but poison water.
It is as I said the first time, you people exist in a state of cognitive dissonance. You refuse the red pill; in fact you're like if Neo got a gun out and SHOT the mfer for even suggesting that his world wasn't real.
