So, in today's world - Scott Adams is correct! Seems to me the safest course!The problem is not skin color, with a qualification explained later.
I've seen the graphs on median IQ. But, low IQ is not so much the problem as low motivation. The problem is the culture and upbringing (or lack thereof). No father figures in many households. Only crackpot grandma is a Christian, mama ain't. And "mama" has no moral guidance, thus the five or more "baby daddies". She had no father to teach her how real men treat women and support a family.
They listen to rap, anti-cop and anti-system. Because of peer pressure, they are encouraged to "hustle" (drugs and whatnot) instead of real work. They are not motivated to learn and excel, that gets them labeled as being "too white." They literally celebrate ignorance. But, the gang leaders are actually pretty smart, in some instances-handling logistics, etc. It's in their best interests to keep their members ignorant and pliable, and they make the "rewards" tantalizing.
The "motivation" factor was sunk by LBJ. He hated blacks but recognized the voting bloc. And the Dems destroyed the nuclear black family structure that should have been supportive.
In retrospect, we should likely have done desegregation sooner. When masses of blacks might have been integrated into a civil, European society and learned from it.
Now, to the "skin color" thing. There are many blacks that are good, intelligent hard-working people. But... there have been 3 generations (or more) that have learned "hate whitey." Obama ratcheted that way up, starting with Trayvon "could be my son". And the f'in media calling Zimmerman a "white Hispanic". We had embers before, but Obama poured the gasoline.
