You just in essence contradicted yourself. Either you want to claim libs/dems are racist for causing African-American men to abandon their families and kids not learning to read English, or you blame the people themselves for not taking personal responsibility for such things. Which is it?
As to calling bullshit and shenanegans, it once again points to the fact that you categorize groups of people and can't seem to conceive that among them are different people with different beliefs. ALL libs have to fit into your narrow category...so what are they if they're Democrats, liberals, believe in many of the liberal beliefs, but think affirmative action is no longer a good idea? Where do you lump them THEN?
If you cared to bother, you'd end up with about a million different "categories" to lump people into. Too bad it's easier for you to lump us into a couple and ignore the differences, and that you have no desire whatsoever to recognize people as INDIVIDUALS.

"and that you have no desire whatsoever to recognize people as INDIVIDUALS."
HAH!
Thats what I've been driving at for so long.
You have no idea.
Individuals, learning to think for themselves, to see the good and to disregard the bad.
But, granted, you have to read through what I am saying to get that.
You have to drop your OWN prejudices, to see that.
Granted, it's hard to do that. To drop party lines, to drop preconceived notions, and start seeing the truth of things.

Meh, I thought the whole idea of disliking this person or that person for someone else's reasons was idiotic when I was six, and my opinion of it ain't improved any since.
That said, I'd advise against discussing with me just how "persecuted" Christians are, believe me, one reason you would never, ever want me in a position of political power is that one way to keep or advance such a position is finding someone to kick to the bottom of the ladder and stomp on, and they'd be my first damn choice - cause like any other pack of scumbag bullies, most of their whining about "persecution" is them being pissed off at having their own persecutions blockaded by either law or human decency, two things that belief has historically, no respect whatever for - and these ARE the folks that brought the burning times, the crusades, the inquisition, book burnings, campaigns against literacy and medicine, and of course hypocrisy and sex scandals galore - not to mention involvement with the hellcamps.
So don't even get me started by pretending Christians are some kinda persecuted minority - I had my way, they'd find the fuck out what REAL persecution IS - remember one side of my ancestral line hearkens back to some of the nastier Saracen folk, who unlike Saladin, didn't think much of the idea of offering mercy to treacherous backstabbing gits who would simply take it for an opportunity to slam a knife in your back.
Lions ? ha! - I'd be bringing back wooden stakes and torches for a little poetic justice, cause what has that belief ever brought the world but misery.
That said, I am not especially intolerant, but I do have a keen edge to grind against a belief seemingly based on the puerile malice of a vicious demon-god who apparently feeds on human misery and revels in bloodshed, hate and intolerance - most of whos followers aren't at all shy about wanting to see anyone who isn't THEM dead and roasting in "hell" - and who think they got some kinda divine right to ram their beliefs down the throats of others on a pike.
So don't come whining about "persecution" of Christians to me, not now, not ever.

Who is talking about the "persecution of Christians"? Personally, if your belief system cannot stand up to the harsh light of history and truth, then its not really worth it.
The Christians murdered innocents, Jews learned from the Nazis (Palestine), MLK was an adulterer... history is messy.
But again, there is always something good from the bad.
Its rare that things are easy, and completely black and white.

Modern racism is no longer about hurting or insulting. These days it is used almost exclusively as a weapon to destroy or attempt to destroy a person or organization's reputation. It seems the biggest racists today are Blacks and liberals. Liberal political correctness has put everyone who isn't a white Christian male into a special victim's category. Dare ye tresspass into that area and you will certainly get accused and besmirched. Some even go as far as stating that if you disagree with Obama on anything you are a racist. And liberal mouthpieces like Olbermann, Mahr & Garafalo blame Obama's failed policies, his plummeting poll numbers, and general ineptitude on....racism, of course. How handy to have that around! Now Obama himself is too clever to jump on that theme, and he doesn't have to. He simply blames Bush for everything. The whole lot of them are despicable. It's like they have a little checklist....oooh that's racist....oh that's ok...oooh another racist, well he's a Dem, so ok....yep racist... no not racist...on and on 24 hours a day. Thank God we have people who can label others for us.
