    Sorry, but you can have an unpleasant experience with people of a certain race, but a rational person won't judge an entire race based off of it.

    Unless of course, the bias was there from the beginning and they are using that unpleasant experience as an excuse.

    Dude pleeez......I live and work in Atlanta.....and I don't so much "hate" black folks as I try to avoid them....especially large gatherings of blacks. Ever heard of FreakNik? I experienced it firsthand for a number of years. Trash in the streets, people having sex on the tops of cars, streets tied up for no reason, white people yelled at and beaten, restaurants having to close because their workers wouldn't show up due to their horrible treatment at the hands of black "customers".......and I won't even get into the whole black "lack of tipping" thing. So, yeah, I've "dealt" with black folks more than most.

    Oh, my bad. Was from the article linked. Well as I said, that's still only a 4.9% margin of error at 95% confidence, even with that reduced sample - not ideal, but still pretty damn good. We can be 95% sure that the figure is between 41% and 51%.

    "an experience" would connote "one".........I have had many more than "one" bad experience with blacks.....therefore, I try to avoid them as best I can....especially when they are in large groups. Based upon the crime statistics and the crime stories I read, this is a good strategy

    Here's an example of the type of interaction with blacks that I try to avoid.......and this happens in Jacksonville, Daytona Beach, Virginia Beach, Myrtle Beach, etc. when there are large gatherings of blacks. Used to happen in Atlanta during FreakNik until the city finally shut it down after years of the Mayor telling everyone that Whites were just overreacting and being "racist" for not welcoming these nice "college kids".......I think they finally shut it down after a bunch of the thugs urinated in the Mayor's yard.......LOL

    No, O'Reilly.


    Aside from being off topic, there are numerous red states where its legal. likewise there are blue states where it's illegal as well, so it's inconclusive.

    The poll you linked has the people against interracial marriage at 29%. It is one year more recent than the poll in the OP.

    I bet your prolly just one of those wannabe black people yourself anyways. Just curious, how far down to your ankles do you wear your pants? And how far to the side do you keep your hat cocked?

    My company stuck me in the "Hotlanta" office for a year, I BEGGED to leave. The natives were still living the Civil War, and blacks were simply lost. Notice you did not provide a link to document how many had come from New York, and New Jersey, which means it is undocumented information, and has no value in this thread. Living in Atlanta for a year, I think that qualifies my opinion of that "backward sweatbox." Believe me, I know of what I speak, I am married to Texas liberal from Galveston. Frankly, I think we should have let the South secede. They would be broke and part of Mexico by now. At least they would not be an obstacle to the rest of us who wish to live in the 21st century!

    The majority of white conservatives in the deep south disapprove of interracial couples?

    We're supposed to be surprised?

    No we are not.

    And yes, skin color is irrelevant, IQ and testosterone levels on the other hand are not. This is the reason why black people are far more likely to be violent criminals than japanese people.

    I'm not surprised.

    Interracial marriage was illegal in the neighboring state of Alabama until the year 2000.

    Then they had a vote to take the law off the books and it only passed with something like 59 percent of the vote.

    Black people tend to have higher arrest rates because they are targeted more than other racial groups. A study just came out that showed that while whites and blacks use drugs at the same rates, blacks are four times more likely to be arrested than whites are. In addition, blacks are more often given stiffer penalties for the same crime as their white counterparts.

    Whites AND Blacks are more violent than the Japanese. What point were you trying to make?

    1. the reason why white drug users are arrested less is because a) they dont deal drugs and b) they're not connected to other forms of criminality. The police obviously pays more attention to criminal neighbourhoods (= black neighbourhoods) rather than suburban white kids.

    2. Whites are more violent than japanese (lower IQs and higher testosterone levels) but blacks are far more violent.

    Actually that's false. Read the study. White kids deal just as much drugs as the black kids. Also most black arrests are due to possession, not dealing.

    http://news.yahoo.com/pot-arrests-more-likely-blacks-180649118.html

    Blacks are far more violent in poor neighborhoods where they tend to kill other blacks. White violence tends to roll over into more diverse areas. Such as that school shooter in Connecticut, and the Boston Marathon bombers.
