    There are black majority towns which are very nice, rich even, but D.C. is a place where you are either rich and some how connected to government or you are very poor. If you are a well paid government worker or lobbyist then you move to Northern Virginia and only come into D.C. for work.

    I don't know anyone claiming any day now as we are less than a year into this and it took two years for Watergate to slowing drip-drop to the end. I expect the same timeline here. Now, Republicans will try to make up excuses for the indefensible, they will keep trying to smear law enforcement, but in the end the evidence is going to be too great and they will drump Trump to try to save their own diseased skins.

    Stop lying you dumb racist fuck. You said welfare not food stamps. 3/4s of those on SNAP are children under 18, elderly and working poor so doesn't apply to your dumb racist comment about ability to go to jury duty.

    Take it up with USA Today and the company. Which did the quoted research, troll boy. It says the rate is 22% at least for that one program.

    Are you too drunk to do math you racist fuck or just too dumb?

    No. Of DC residents on TANF:
    https://www.acf.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/ofa/2017_recipient_tan.pdf
    DC pop:
    https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/DC/PST045216
    Rate: <1.5%

    Additionaly, 70% of those on TANF are children so wouldn't be eligible for jury duty (the supposed reason for your dumb racist sidebar).

    On a different note there are a lot of government workers in D.C. and government workers usually get paid jury leave while most private sector does not unless someone is salaried and even then they try to tell people to get out of it if they can.

    I see you remain functionally illiterate and unable to read. Thus why you keep postong garbage which has already been explained away. Hint: Read the link about food stamps I already provided, you shitty person. Food Stamp rates are 22%, that is welfare, you were wrong, get over yourself and stop trying to move the goal posts, you fucktard.

    Or, you know, keep ignoring the evidence which proves you wrong and keep mouthing off like the dishonest fool you are, which ever works for you. :shrug:

    Now, since Anc wishes to continue showing everyone how wrong he is, about so many things, let us look at unemployment rates in the D.C. area as we have already established some welfare programs are truly highly used there (the highest in the nation, in fact).

    Black unemployment in D.C. was right under 14% at least in 2016. Those are the people who say they want to find a job. Want to guess what some of the other UI types show us? Of course you don't, you'd just lie and make up excuses any way. The other out of employment figures show around the 30% range and up many on disability which is a widely abused system.

    I give Anc this; he has perfected tge art of being righteously indignant while being completely wrong. It is kind of his schtick. That and screaming and crying we he gets caught being wrong yet again.

    So, yes, much less likely to be gainfully employed and much higher rates of welfare usage among the black population of D.C. Those are simply facts. Sadly, facts make Anc upset so he behaves like a fool but what else is new?

    It seems you are mentally broken and incapable of honesty. Yes, food stamps are welfare, one of many forms of government welfare, apparently just not the welfare program you want to cherry pick just like you ignored who is not working. I am sorry your dishonesty prevents you from admitting that basic truth about D.C. but some day maybe you can improve yourself and learn that facts are still true even if you dislike them. Clearly, there is much work for you to do at self improvement, my lying troll of a friend, but with hard work you may actually start to recognize reality again.

    I don't think that anyone argues that stating demographic statistics constitutes racism. it's the cooked in implication - particularly in the leaked quote - that said people by definition cannot be trusted to be fair.

    Total crime vs violent crime. As I linked above D.C. was tops in murder (Baltimore is runner up) and very near the top on a number of other violent crimes.

    On that I agree completely. People should be trusted to be fair until evidence comes to light showing they are not being fair. The claims made by the Trumpers on that score are simply unfounded. As for demographic statistics, yes, sadly Anc and people like him routinely claim simply pointing out demographic statistics some how constitutes racism and anyone who makes such an unfounded claim is simply a clown who should be laughed at. Crying about imagined racism and name calling is pretty much the go to with a large slice of liberals; kind of like how Anc retardedly claimed anyone who didn't vote for Hillary must be a misogynist during the last election. That was just a stupid position, which he has never owned up to, especially given that many of the people who did not vote for Hillary ended up voting for the other woman running in the race.

    It is just a really ugly habit from some people who are extremely intellectually lazy.

    http://www.businessinsider.com/trum...one-meeting-was-obstruction-of-justice-2018-1

    The former spokesman of the Trump legal team actually quit because he believed statements Trump wanted him to say was obstruction of justice. Specifically, it was the statement about the Trump tower collusion meeting (which even Steve Bannon has said was treasonous) where Donald Trump personally dictated a statement he knew was false ordering his spokesman to lie and pretend the meeting was about adoptions from Russia. The spokesman quit rather than do what he felt was obstruction of justice. He was right too.

    I typed that on the keyboard at my work PC. You will note the typos only really happen on the tiny cellphone touch screen.

    As for ignore, yes, as I told you I have had you on ignore for some time now. I decided to take a quick look to see if you have improved at all, but, sadly, you have not.
