If the USA is such a racist, terrible place, then why do so many black and brown and others migrate here?

FOX had some guy on last night that made that point and ten others. Millions from Africa in the last ten years.
You can’t be racist if you are ”Progressive”. You are most assuredly racist if you are ”Conservative”. Unless you are black. No blacks are racist...but most whites are. Some say all. Especially if you are a police officer.

If blacks are racist then their daily use of the word nigger is not a racist word.

You should test out that thought and get back to us when you can.

No need to test the word, they title their books after it.

No excuses! Prove it works for you instead of buying into what someone else says all the time.

Pontification isn't your strong suit, but feel free to think so.

Maybe even as flawed as we are...it beats where they are coming from.
But that is no reason to quit working on our flaws.

Isn't pontification its only suit?
It's a troll and a caricature...a caricature of a troll.

This is such a racist question/statement. Why would someone make a decision to relocate their family and their entire life based on one single aspect of life? Job opportunities, educational opportunities, more opportunities for the children, escaping civil war and Islamist terrorism - there are LOTS of reasons to move to America, even if racism is an ongoing problem.
Besides - WE hold ourselves out to be free of racism - it's in the brochures (and by that I mean the founding documents). So it is reasonable for immigrants to have an expectation that there will not be racism here. Those such as yourself apparently do not appreciate the 200+ years of hypocrisy of the whole "all men are created equally" thing which was never true.

You suggestion to move is ridiculous, and you know it.
Why pursue that line of discussion further? It was a childish suggestion from the start.

I've read many of his posts and I'm confused as to why you think he knows it's ridiculous. It obviously is, but I see no reason to believe he knows so, or much of anything else.
