That's the idea. The millennials and the generation behind them seem very responsive.
And you just can't wait, can you? Socialist utopia forever!

Watched The Battered Bastards of Baseball the other night. Documentary about the Portland Mavericks A League baseball team in the early to mid '70s.
Team was owned by Kurt Russell's pop. Great watch.

I was the right-hand man of the CEO of a large, successful company, and his heir-apparent. His only son was a worthless little shit. Spent the whole day getting drunk and throwing pickles.
Well, when the time came, that old geezer flaked out and decided to give his boy ONE more chance. He got on my nerves, and yeah, I flaked out a bit, but that's NO excuse take away my rightful place. Do you have any idea how many handjobs I had to give out to get to where I'm at?
Anyway, it all went to shit and here I am at a truckstop. Giving out handjobs. #irony
Kinda like Gladiator?

The idea of mixed income neighborhoods being beneficial doesn't really have to do with race. You can take poor white people and put them in with wealthy black people and the effect would be the same. It's about rich and poor and exposing the poor to life outside of concentrated poverty. The reason it has to do with race in this country is because black people are disproportionately poor when compared to white people so they make up a disproportionate share of low income housing residents.
You're dancing now. Before it was a racism problem that has now waltzed into a money problem.
White people racist. That racism keeps blacks down. Solution: desegregate neighborhoods where blacks move into white neighborhoods. End game: Everybody is white; problem solved.

Since none of you seen to be offering any solutions here s one.
Break up the ghettos. Shoving hoards of poor people into one small space is a terrible idea. If you had strategically placed section 8 homes mixed in all over it would go along way into improving the situation. First, hard to have gang wars when you live next to Chip and Chad. Second, it would help being in a positive environment. People tend to do what others around them are doing. Take a 10 year old hood kid and put him with a family in Beverly Hills, and by the time he is 18 he will be a different person. Third, the education will be better, especially if it's done while they are young.
People will assimilate, but they need to be in the environment they are supposed to assimilate to. A parrot won't talk if he's never heard a human speak my friend.
So take poor blacks and mix them in with rich whites so they won't be poor blacks anymore? They will assimilate into being different people? Sounds paternalist and racist to me.
Example: Whites know better, be more white and your problems will go away. Your black behavior and world view needs to change.
Y'all have railed on the ones disagreeing with you for this same line of thought. How does that make sense when you are saying it?
Ibram Kendi writes about just this type of racism. DD? He's your man and you even quote him saying the belief that once race is inferior or superior to another is racist.
Show me the math.

Back in the day my apartment neighbor was a single mom with a 4 year old boy.
She only let me blow my load on her face one time.
What about the kid?

Are they willing to move?

They must be city workers with no threat of liquidated damages for that type of schedule.

I share a driveway with aggy neighbor behind me. He's not real good at keeping up with yard / tree work. He's had a POS water oak in his back yard that leans out over the fence and into the driveway right above where I park my truck. I drive a crew cab diesel so I can't put the thing in the garage so it stays outside.
The tree is a bird sanctuary that hasn''t been limbed up for several years and I get all sorts of bird crap and small branches falling out of that danged tree onto my truck.
I ask him one day if he is ever going to trim the tree up. He' says he doesn't have a pole saw. I have one at my deer camp and I volunteer to bring it back so we can work on that tree. He's good to go with the plan.
One Sunday afternoon I come back from my deer camp with the pole saw. As I pull in to the driveway, I notice that he has an arborist out and they are just finishing up pruning all of his trees. The place looks great...except the problem-for-me tree is still in its usual horrible shape.
I ask the crew if they are going to prune up the shit tree. They reply to me, "uh, no. The homeowner says his neighbor has a pole saw and that neighbor said he was going to do that tree."
Friggin' cheap skate, dumb aggy. I pruned it up all right. I butchered that thing so bad he paid the arborist to come back out 2 weeks later and cut the whole damn thing down.

I'm white. I know where I stand. I know that the number of white men in power is disproportionate to the number of white men in the general population. The numbers tend to skew in our favor in a big way. I'm trying to change that with every vote.
You allude to just that in this post.

Nobody is perfect. Well, one guy was and we hung Him on a cross.
I think some people do work on it. Some don't. But that's up to them. Claiming that "white men in power" is on its face "racist" is sweeping generalization that's a little hubristic.

I agree with Ibram Kendi on this: being racist is regarding one racial group as being inferior or superior to another racial group in any way.
I have no problem with that. I don't believe any one race is better or worse than another. Stamped from the Beginning seems to be an inetetsing book.
Just reading and agreeing with a book's premise does not make non-racist. We all have some in us to a degree. All of us.

I vote and do everything in my power not to exacerbate the problem by being racist.
You vote. Well, OK.
You do everything in your power to NOT be racist (your answer doesn't read well but I get what you mean).
In your opinion, what is "being racist?" Overt acts? Subtle acts? Just being white? Any act contrary to the perceived general wishes of another race?
Serious. Not trap questions. Just trying to understand you.

DD, what are you doing to take responsibility for your racism toward African Americans?

UH started SWC play in 1976, and the conference broke up in 1996, and during those 20 years they won 7 times, so no they weren't a true rival. But they did win the SWC in their first year. Their best success was using the run and shoot, which was new, novel, and people didn't know how to defend it.
I would argue that the veer offense in the Yeoman days was a much better offense when compared to the run and poot. The run and poot worked against bad defensive schemes with inferior defenders such as our Horns in that time frame.

That sounds about right for Fred Akers. My best friend growing up (and to this day) was a huge Longhorn fan. Both parents and grandparents went to UT. He was heavily recruited by UT and aggy was one of his back ups. His interaction with Fred was the deal killer. Fred was pompous, arrogant and aloof; which apparently translated to his whole program and caused his own demise and our being lost in the wilderness for 20 years
It crushed my friend because he wanted to play for Texas. Even his hard core dad UT was shocked. My friend went aggy with Wilson and then Jackie showed up. He said Sherrill was plain evil but a great coach that used fear as his motivator.
So, in the end: fuck aggy.
