Whether they were valid, whether you agree, whether they are debatable are all questions that would be worth raising. Instead you chose to head off on what you thought was a humorous rant against a rather obscure group of people, complete with sweeping, unsupported and insulting generalizations (and misspellings).[/quote]
I supported it with two books. Statistics are not as easy to come by. You have to dig a little deeper and connect a few dots. And no, I didn’t mean for it to be humorous – because it’s not. As I said in a later post, it is about class – not race. Though certain sub-cultures display similar decay. So, I think it is an apt analogy and worthy of closer analysis.

And then you made a little smiley face, for reasons that didn’t make much sense to me. [/quote]
Agreed, the last line was a piss-poor attempt at humor that did not work. Mea culpa

My response to you was intended to be as well thought out as I thought yours was to the comment to which you were responding. That was what I had to add.[/quote]
