Stelvast, It IS fact...i don't care whether some PC magazine has put out an article or not...of course they wouldn't, in the last 20 years, it's PC not to. Would hurt their subscriptions to say anything non PC.
You may be black, that's ok by me...i have a few friends who are black...they know they can run faster and jump higher than me...and that's ok by me...they also know i'm smarter than them, and probably that's ok by them. Why are you offended by this? You KNOW blacks are faster in general and jump higher...but would you SAY that? Probably not, because you fear the PC crowd. What makes smarter better than jump higher? Who said it was?! I chose a career where high IQs are necessary...but i make less than 1/20 of ball players who can jump higher and run faster. (there are FEW of my colleagues that are black) The jump higher/run faster professions pay a LOT more. See my point? I never said smarter was better, though i like it, rather than to jump higher or run faster.
Asians as a race are smarter than most races. It's a fact. Doesn't bother me.
I don't know a heck of a lot about football, but how many black quarterbacks are there? I'd guess not many. Why are most quarterbacks white? And most running backs black? Getting the drift?
Basketball...how many blacks are in the starting 5? It's all fact. They jump higher, run faster.
Chess...how many past champions and masters are white? Fact.
I understand...you've been brought up in an extremely PC environment, and taught that saying "some race is smarter" is BAD and racist. .. definately not PC...
So by trying to label someone as ignorant and racist...well, who's being ignorant?
On another note...Susan Butcher passed away a few months ago. RIP.
Now back to Ice's thread...what I said, WAS relevant...
Too bad there's NOT as much profiling at the airport...Congressional Medal of Honor winner, 80 years old, pulled aside and treated like a common crook, because he wouldn't take off his medal. A small woman and her little 12 year old girl taken aside and frisked because they had a tube of toothpaste. Yet, middle eastern men walking right through without batting an eye.
