AND so I asked, what is the solution...close them NOW?

This is getting us nowhere...oh, and I'm really weary of being mocked...

I'm done with this for real...go ahead and have the last word.

I see no problem with traditional black colleges and universities, as long as they don't exclude people from other races. If a black student feels more comfortable attending one of those schools, so be it! I see these as cultural schools in the same way that an Apostolic student may choose an Apostolic bible school or college.

BTW, Tennessee State University is a public university that is considered a black university because it is 90% black and is located in a black neighborhood in Nashville. Since white students are a minority, they are given scholarships and other financial considerations to attract them there, much like a black student has at a university where blacks are a minority. This is what I call fairness and equality.

Criminal profiling vs. racial profiling

LAPD officers will utilize crime data, including ethnicity, to identify possible suspects. But there is no place for racial profiling in law enforcement.

Profiling vs. Racism
Former Los Angeles black police Chief Bernard Parks, defending racial profiling, said: “It’s not the fault of the police when they stop minority males or put them in jail. It’s the fault of the minority males for committing the crime.

Criminal vs. Racial Profiling
Racial profiling is not the same thing as criminal profiling. Racial profiling is any police-initiated action that relies on the race, ethnicity, or national origin rather than the behavior of an individual or information that leads the police to a particular individual who has been identified as being. or having been, engaged in criminal activity. Criminal profiling is any police- initiated action that used the compilation of the background, physical, behavioral, and motivational characteristics for a type of perpetrator that lead the police.

Your emotional opinion has always been pretty apparent, every day, by your billboard, er, I mean your signature line. All you need is flashing lights to go with it.

And your emotional opinion on making fun of the speaking of some black people is very apparent....as is your apparent "Christian" attitude.....you are one of those "kinds of people" I live to avoid~ All you need is a neon sign above your head that says what you truly are~I will not respond to anymore of your blatant pathetic remarks or posts so knock yourself out arguing with others who are like you and think like you!!! auf wiedersehen

I'm never going to defend, "Don't tell us we is ignunt!" especially coming from the racist pimp, Al Sharpton.

Then don't start with the *sigh* and the words "silly" if you don't like the responses you get to your own version of mocking others first.

I will. Please next time you decide to resort to mockery and pejorative comments don't be offended when someone reciprocates.

*SIGH*
