Ronaldinho abuse reveals soccer racism in Mexico

If you really want to be impressed, beg X to give you fi him answer! LOL!!! Anyway, you bring up a good point. Most developmental problems are within our control, but not all. There is no question in my mind that elements of the system are rigged to keep minorities from advancing and the most important one is education. I may NOT be 100% right on this, but as I understand it, K-12 public education is funded primarily from property taxes. Therefore, rich neighbourhoods can afford better schools. Now, tell me, how can the problems of poor neighbourhoods ever be remedied if the "haves" don't want to be fair? One solution is to make sure that the best among us don't move out of the "old neighbourhoods" but who wants to live among the bottom feeders, like kind or not? It is a problem.

Good chat, sah!
...in the context of ignoring source of funding for schools, the fact of the 'monied class' having access to best schools is fact of live. Who among us having the means at our disposal would not motivate like persons to develop & create 'best schools' for our offsprings? ...or attending best available school...and who among us would not wish to live in 'best communities'?

Does not take money to keep a poor neighborhood clean or free from crime.

Those two factors alone would attract well-to-do outside Black investment.

I am impressed with your philosophical approach and answer.

From my position, black-on-black crime occurs by the fools and idiotic among our "kind".

I maintain that >75% of our developmental problems are within "OUR" control. It does not come from outside.

Take Chicago as a case study: The Polish, Italians, Hispanic, Chinese, Koreans and other groups have carved out unique economic and cultural niches.

Compare that with Black (who have roots in this great city long long before the above mentioned groups.

depends ..... there were 2 words missing in the original post

"it might be an extension of the preference of own race by the way how does that account for black on black crime in places with cultural diversity like the US and GB and possibly even Canada?"

[HL]

My theory is that it is probably because "self preservation" and "selfishness" are both truly only about "self", and not necessarily "own kind". Blacks involved in black-on-black crime anywhere, are not unlike whites involved in white-on-white crime, each only interested in themselves first, not their "kind" first. "Kind" is probably only of interest when "self" is fully taken care of and protected...or severely threatened on a macro-level, whether that threat is perceived or real makes no difference.

Did I just 'hear you' right?
...mmmm?

I say that I hear you...but if I could become more perplexed on the issue your take just adds to...or at very least keeps me puzzled.

Have always been puzzled on why minorities are racists?

I understand there is an inbred...embedded...preference for/of 'own race'...but what is there in the past history of minorities that puts one minority group against another purely because of 'skin colour'? Just cannot understand the logic or reasons for root cause.

My thing is rubbing salt to a wound temporarily majes things worse,after that you still have The wound.
When the purchasing power is far more greater for a brown skinned person than it is for a dark(darker) skinned...then that is The wound,and being verbally hostile is the salt...
One continent,who gets the guns,who gets the good trading regulations,who fah land get tief whey,who fah border looks like clearly marked enemy lines in WW2?
Misdirected anguish in Mexico,akin to when people proudly declare they have the blood of the slave master.....,my confused "brown" fellow Jakans.

[Paul Marin]

i have been among mexican fans (at games) on many occasions. They are at best a rabid group.

Recall whenever the opposing GK kicks out the ball...the mexicans all hold their hands up, jiggle their fingers and shout Puuutttoooo ( a profanity I think of sorts).

[Gamma]

when dem call demself ape that will mitigate the situation .... when man call demself donkeyman is a likkle different.
