I don't understand why blacks would be upset at that. Someone complimented your race.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, by saying you're dumber. Who wouldn't be flattered?

[/ QUOTE ]Who said anything about being dumber? AFAIK, the guy just said blacks are faster.

[/ QUOTE ]

He said whites are smarter, somewhat implying that blacks are more stupid [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].

[/ QUOTE ]Not the OP, the guy in the news, who said blacks are faster runners, also said whites are smarter?

[/ QUOTE ]

Ok, I don't manage to disagree with somebody with such an avatar [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img].

Seriously, read the other thread before you spout your brain here. Jaylear has an excellent post which will speed up this discussion, and there's other goodness in there too.
