Precisely, Farm, and thanks. There were a couple of exchanges between Buddy and myself early on. He lost those debates. I presented empirical facts from peer-reviewed papers published in professional journals to support my positions. In contrast, he was caught in several lies. Since then, he hasn't engaged me on a serious level. -g- Perhaps "lies" is a bit too strong. I think in his mind he honestly believed the nonsense he espoused, but there is no basis for any of it beyond his imagination and his gullibility to the deceptions from the left. He is simply conditioned to respond in the typical leftist manner by blurting out "racism" if he cannot logically refute or respond to facts. In one of those early debates, I told Buddy that Blacks commit very disproportional crime in every violent and non-violent crime category tracked and reported by the FBI in their annual uniform crime reports. There are about 27 crime categories in all and Blacks lead in every one. In fact, the contest is not close. Frankly, it's a disgrace and a very telling truth. Upon reading that, Buddy didn't attempt to issue any denials. Instead, he retorted that Whites have a higher incidence of illicit drug abuse than Blacks. In "support" of his baseless assertion, he posted a long stream of unedited and disjointed nonsense from an unknown website. The material was definitely not peer-reviewed or substantiated in any way. The amusing part is that in the large diatribe he posted, which I read in its entirety, there were sections that strongly supported my points and completely disproved his. He apparently did not read what he posted beforehand! LOL! Since that disgrace, he hasn't attempted to engage me. He'll occasionally chirp "racism" if I press him, but that's the extent of his "intellectual" rebuttals since that early embarrassment. -vbg- Sorry 'bout that, Buddy! -vbg-
