Let's see if I understand you correctly John. What you are saying is certain conservatives on this thread aren't worthy of seriously discussing the relation between race/ethnicity and academic achievement because they are only capable of angry, hostile, or abusive responses (flaming). However, if there were to be a discussion, you would have to be the arbiter of what research is germane to the discussion & which is not. Additionally you will decide what needs to be extrapolated out of certain research. However, even that might reduce the strata affecting the reliability of the results. Therefore, you need to be able to eliminate even more research from discussion as you see fit. And too many variables make it too complex for certain of us conservatives to draw conclusions from, so you must be able to exclude even more research from the discussion at will. Even under these circumstances, you still have serious reservations about a serious discussion about race/ethnicity & academic achievement. Why? Because so many folks on this thread hold stereotypical views on race, so you doubt this thread would be able to accomplish anything noteworthy. Please correct me if I misunderstood what you said John. TIA
