I have never asked you the question before that I posed in 58 last night. If you can prove otherwise, simply do so with a link or reproduce it.

Otherwise, why can't you answer the question?

I do not want your love - only a direct answer to the question.

you have my love anyway......i can only advise in that you read older post of mine where you have asked me questions before........... and i have answered them.
 
I guess polls can close after a while because I can't vote in this one. Of course white americans have benefited, it would be silly to think otherwise. First improved rights for part of the population is improved equal rights for all of us. It simply can't work any other way. Secondly there are now parts of my family that are mixed. Civil rights is also responsible for me having friends, lovers, co-workers, classmates, teachers, coaches, employees, employers, contractors, doctors, nurses, politicians etc etc that were minorities. Minorities have been involved in ground breaking inventions, studies, discoveries break throughs etc.

So yes white americans have benefited, there's nothing that says otherwise unless of course you are a white american that thinks minorities shouldn't have had rights, then I'm sure you have plenty of reasons to deny the benefits or think they aren't really benefits hahaha. The thing is though, you are a loser.

Why would I search your past posts in other threads when the question I posed to you was asked here for the very first time last night in #58?

all it takes is one direct answer to one direct question...... and why would you criticize me for asking the question and insisting on an answer rather than criticize EB for refusing to answer it? Perhaps because you are both on the right side of the political continuum?

Oh please, you ask the same idiotic questions over, and over, and over. They've all been answered a million times. Nothing new here.

Yes they have. As a general cosmic universal rule, if those beneath you benefit and become better off then all those above them benefit and become better off even more so and I'd say that has largely been true. It's the basic universal life algorithm of "The rich get richer" no matter what. The same rule applies to justice. The less injustice in traditionally impoverished communities means even less injustice in the traditionally wealthy communities. (Because obviously, if Jamal or Ruben have less incentive to steal from Mr. Smith, then obviously Mr. Smith is better off). In the end (and this can be hard to stomach for a lot of social leftists), if a minority gets a pay raise hypothetically speaking then a non minority likely got three pay raises hypothetically speaking. Obviously that's a "good thing" for the non minority just as much as it is for the minority.
