African Americans more likely to die from coronavirus ...

April 6 (Reuters) - Early data from U.S. states shows African Americans are more likely to die from COVID-19, highlighting longstanding disparities in health and inequalities in access to medical care, experts said.

Now the virus isn't only deadly but it's racist too.

Now the virus isn't only deadly but it's racist too.

The article clearly explains why that is but you of course missed it.

In New Orleans there's a lot of obesity. I like to believe they had a lot of fun putting all that weight on. New Orleans seems like a fun place.

But yeah, if you're fat, don't go outside. Live off your fat reserves for a few months.

It does explain why. Basically, it lays blame at the feet of institutional racism and once more seeks to convey to Americans just how awful we are.

Yep, this fact was confirmed by an "expert".

Racism has led to a lack of investment in African American communities...

Money, of course, could fix that "lack of investment".

How come extremely poor Hispanic communities are not facing alarming rates of Corona Virus? Or White Trash Trailer Park Communities in the Ozarks?

As long as that money goes into the hands of the "community organizers".

Because more black folks are packed into inner-city ghettos.

Maybe they should elect demorats who will immediately tax the rich and fix that. Oh wait...

How stupid. They are. But white people are not disproportionately poor like black people because of slavery and decades of racist laws.

There are more poor white people that poor black people, so your argument is a loser.

Why are black people disproportionately poor?

Because white people literally taxed the life out of them and left them penniless. White people then instituted racist laws for decades, further preventing black people from achieving proportional power and wealth.

Black people are disproportionately poor because white people taxed them.

But white people are the victims, right?

How stupid. They are. But white people are not disproportionately poor like black people because of slavery and decades of racist laws.

So the argument should really be that poor people are adversely affected by corona virus... not black people.

I loved it when Kirk and Spock would head down with some Red Shirts... you knew that those guys were always gonna die. :lol:

The article highlights the disproportionate poverty suffered by black people as a result of white people's racism. Does that bother you?

Well, if corona virus is going to start killing PM's and the like then that throws out a Conspiracy angle...
