We really won't know unless we see the test.

Maybe they just got angry because too many black people passed the test so they lied and took the test back. They will probably come up with an anti-black proof test so no black people will pass it.

@Nature Boy,

One without any bickering..I was told that is not allowed here, because it may ruin someones VJ experiance

I come here for information, all you people do is bicker

I didn't like your "you people" comment. Are you stating you have a problem with the defenders or the offenders? I would not see why someone would have a problem with someone who has to defend themselves.

Didn't you wonder "HOW" questions on a firefighter test could be race biased.... or did you just assume they were?

And again what is so different between whites and Blacks taking the test that it would predictably hinder the Black candidate but not the White?

You're asking the wrong person. The black people who took the test and passed it were told they couldn't be hired because the test was racist. DId you read the article? It makes no sense now as it did back then.

When the usual suspects stop bringing it up, it will go away. Personally, I'd just rather talk about the person or the event. But if the person is black or hispanic, some of you can't help themselves.

You got that one. Do you really want to do a post count of how many times race comes up in a thread that has nothing to do with it? The solar panel will always be my favorite though, hard to beat. If you want, I can PM you the names of the members, I'd wager 80% of their threads deal with race off the bat.

Marvin love you man.. but it's reality time.. I know you are not pointing fingers at others about race topic post counts.

I will you give you, that you have the patience of Job. But dude....You are obsessed with skin color as bad as any person I have ever seen and have a huge black chip on your shoulder a mile wide.

You are otherwise a rational well spoken gentle nice human "with a really gorgeous wife"

The reality is, it's brought up more times than it needs to be, and I'm not the cause. There's been a lot of times I wasn't even in the conversation but came in because someone started dogging black people. Or better yet, when someone posts a thread and calls me by name to come and speak on something because it's a black person.

I really don't care about skin color. I just hate hearing how thuggish, ignorant, and stupid we are. And I know what time it is.

And I'm still going to kill you when I see you :ranting:

P.S. Thank you.

We have to educate when we can. Maybe it will start a chain reaction and eventually trickle down to where we are so we won't have to deal with the mess.

Other than that, I think about getting my husband over here, my next trip to Sri Lanka, work, class, test for daughter, things like that. Pretty boring my life is. sigh....

IS that an on-line sale or a local auction, what kind of stuff is up for grabs?

Not advertising just sharing with my friends what I am up to.

It's an old Plantation home in Middle Ga. My jet setting sister who is upgrading husbands, is getting rid of 29 years of compulsive spending. I have everything for sale including--A 2005 cherry Lincoln Town Car, 3 40ft shipping containers, an 1800's antique 40 drawer apothecary cabinet, grand piano, Duck press, 100's of old 60,70;s, 80's albums, fine china, a 16ft table with 14 chairs, furniture, antique entryway bench, various tools, a whole barn full of pottery, and knick knacks, and last but not least an 5 bedroom antebellum home built in the 1830's with a enormous swimming pool and 10 acres of land.

I already sold 2 Utlity trailers,1 disc harrow, 1 bush hog.

I also have some very old ceder logs, and aged heart of pine planks.

ETC ETC

Danno it is a now win situation. How can someone say a test is designed so that Blacks do not know the answers, then lose their mind if you dare suggest a possible trend of behavior among black people and reply that it is bigoted to suggest just because someone is black they may be like another black person.

The nut of the problem is...They want special treatment and to be singled out when it is beneficial, but you dare not mention race if it is not a perk.

Kobe nailed . How can you move forward when this is the norm

What is baffling to me is this sequence-

-Test is given, Blacks on average don't score up to par.

-Some race hustler sees the results, uses some bass-akward logic to accuse the test rather than those unprepared to take it.

-The municipality caves because there is no way they are going to question our national religion that all people should perform equally.

-Willing ears hear of the charges and then go forth repeating the "findings" without ever seeing the test or even doing a little critical reasoning.

-Meanwhile people who worked harder to study for the test get bumped for a lower performing applicant (who passed but with a lower score).

Once again, you didn't read the article.
