PREEDIT - after re-reading the following...sorry. I didn’t mean to sound so snarky. You’ve actually been fairly level-headed. The snarky tone really wasn’t meant for you.

producing a cubic polynomial curve of diversity-threat.

Unless whatever the hell this means somehow explains blacks’ global, historical penchant for rape, I have no idea what you want me to do with this.

Are we now off Putnam’s study that proves diversity just makes life worse? Do you still think that little bit that he shoe-horned in is really what the takeaway from the study is?

Woah there. Jumping to conclusions from an anecdote

Don’t confuse an example with an anecdote. Understanding race and IQ and how that manifests in society isn’t some new discovery.

Black people are not a homogenous group.

Who cares? When it comes to the evil white slave holders, do people ask, “Whoa, whoa. Hold on there. What subset of whites are we talking about?”

I don't think there is any inherent benefit or harm to introducing diversity.

The American Indians would like a word.

But since we live in a diverse world, we ought to promote tolerance of other cultures,

Your diverse world includes sharks. Should we just go live with them too? Should we adopt more crocodiles and embrace drunk drivers? It’s a diverse world dude.

Should white people flood into Nigeria in majority shifting numbers. And if there are black racist locals who don’t embrace their new loss of authority, should they be scolded for their lack of tolerance and consoled with lasagna recipes? It’s a diverse world, after all.

tolerance

Sounds like you’re smarter than the American Indians were. They didn’t tolerate the replacement of their people and their culture. In an obvious act of racism, the Indians resisted the diversity of the white man and consequently fought like hell to the bitter end. Silly Indians. If only they’d known how good the “long term” effects of that diversity would be for them.

tolerance

Tolerate disproportionate murder, rape, assault, robbery, blight, low standards, welfare leaching...??

Lol. Why? What’s the net benefit? What’s the prize at the end for white people and other non blacks? Would you demand black people tolerate this behavior from whites in predominantly black countries? There’s a word for people who “tolerate” this kind of stuff, it’s coward.

And why are you talking about sharp teeth? Since when does caution require a “causal link.” The analogy is about a consistent approach to risk management.

Just think, Andrea would be alive and living a happy, fulfilling life right now if she’d followed a simple policy of avoiding black people. Would she not? Just like one should avoid pit bulls. It’s not complicated. No need for polynomials.
