I work for a tax company dude so you can’t teach me about American tax laws. I do people’s taxes every year. Google TurboTax we the biggest tax preparer in America. So it’s laughable that you think you can teach me about a law I see almost everyday . Dude use sense. We go back and forth with the irs every year because of these laws J111333: 2 Likes |

Last time I checked 95 to 4 was the vote which means republicans and democrats cane together to vote. Also last time I checked black community leaders had discussions with Biden asking him to create a tough bill because the crime rate went up by 40%. Also the black BB congressional caucus supported the bill. All these different black groups did interviews before the election defending Biden and talking about how they pressured him because they needed to fix the community. If you want to blame Biden for speaking to black leaders and supporting a bill that black community leaders supported go ahead thebosstrevor1: 1 Like |

awulio: Indeed, my comments are based on movies. Anyway, i am suprised this is coming from you. I have an idea of race relations, don't tell what i don't know. I am sure you have lot of victim mentality. The whites are against us, they are out to catch us, suprisely, even with lot of programs like affirmative action to meet up. You are damn funny. Don't blame white people for the inability to be successful in life even in the midst of plenty, blame yourself. |

Again you just proven you know nothing about how America works. Before you can build affordable housing aka projects you need city officials to vote.if they say no then you can’t build affordable housing in that neighborhood. For example I live in a white neighborhood now and they have rejected all plans for affordable housing. They rejected a train station because they believed it would bring more black ppl to the neighborhood. Ppl have asked my family how a black family was able to get a house in this white neighborhood. So a lot goes into building affordable houses in a white neighborhood. America has laws and rules that must be followed J111333: 1 Like |

When he became a senator he took a train every day for 4 hours because he wanted to be around people of color so that he can better understand their plight. They used to tease him and called him Amtrak joe because he did that thebosstrevor1: 1 Like |

awulio: Lets get the facts right. The Senate initially passed the bill by a 95-4 vote; the final conference report vote was 61-38, with just two Democrats voting no. The House passed the final bill 235-195, with nearly three times as many Democrats supporting it as opposing it. President Bill Clinton had to meet with the CBC to garner enough votes to get the bill over the finish line. The Baltimore Sun reported on Aug. 18, 1994, that at least three members of the caucus had switched their votes after meeting with Clinton at the White House. Before that meeting, “10 of the 38 black Democrats in the House voted against him when the crime bill, in an embarrassing setback for the administration, failed on a procedural motion. They were protesting the application of the death penalty to 60 more crimes. I hope you know many black leaders were against the bill. |

codemaniacs:First of all, there are first generation black Americans and you gotta have to respect that fact. A second generation American who migrated from Nigeria, got series of degrees and have just gotten his citizenship after only a 5year stay in America can not wake up one morning and apply for a job at US Secret Service that requires lots of security clearance and expect to get hired simply because the requirement says the job is for all "American citizens with college degree". Trust me, even black bosses treat fellow black employees more terribly than white bosses. |

Lol I don’t have any victim mentality. I live a blessed life, I have a degree and I’m getting my masters . I have my own stuff and I’m still very young. I have white friends and we get along fine. Don’t assume to know me dude. Fact is black ppl work harder to get promoted here. Yale was literally sued for accepting white ppl with lower marks than black ppl. Yale accepts a white man with 75 score but declines a black boy with 85 score .... that’s a race issue thebosstrevor1: 1 Like |

It battles me how some evil religion zombies in Africa are blindly supporting Trump against this man. Trump never stepped foot in Africa, even though some might argue he has some black folks in his ranks. But this is a man that has a very low opinion and biased assumption about anything that looks different from him, especially blacks. |
