Africa pre Berlin conference was filled with successful empires and kingdoms.

Unfortunately for them, their leaders were willing to be subservient to handing over their continents wealth to foreign nations.

You can generally find two things in these nations. 1. Foreign powers sucking them dry of their natural resources. 2. Corrupt politicians all too willing to allow it for their own personal gain.

Black individuals are the same as whites or any other ethnicity on a genetic level. Any two humans on Earth are 99.9% genetically identical. There is no difference between us besides the melanin in our skin.

I will add, those black nations werent innocent. Their participation in the slave trade greatly contributed to their current state. But Im not going to condemn an entire subset of people over the sins of their fathers.

Is there a problem with black "culture"? Absolutely. But I'm not buying the propaganda that black people are just inherently evil people. There is a massive array of legitimate societal reasons for why black "culture" as we know it today exists. We should be addressing those issues, not condemning our fellow man. And with such contempt. It isnt healthy. And it certainly isnt Christian, which so many of you claim to be...
Your first sentence is completely wrong objectively. Africa was an economy of slavery and subsistence farming.The different family groups would create tribes and war against other regional groups. They would take slaves and sacrifice some of them them to whatever God they believed in at the time. That could become quite contentious and result in further violence. Africa as a continent has never been a beacon of humanity.

Where in that statement did I say their empires were morally righteous? I said they were prosperous. And I even pointed to their participation in the slave trade later on in the post.

1. That article is 12 yeads old. 2
Theyre looking at cumulative total over years vs the annual number of forces actively serving. Thats called cherry picking data sir.

Here's an equally old article calling out that cherry picking of data.


Got anything from post-Pelini to support this claim?

Still ambiguous.

Are you referring to the tweet referencing 12 year old claims that have already been debunked? You sure tried to change the topic away from the validity of the claim quickly.
Im talking about the mass takeover of the UK with Muslim foreigners

The statistics....😅🤣😂

So the data you present tries to make the claim that the percentage of mass shootings mirrors the percentage of the U.S. population. This is factually incorrect.

White people account for 54.8% and account for 61.6% of the American population. (-6.8%).

Black people account for 21.5% of mass shootings and only account for 14.4% of the American population. (+7.1%)

Hispanic people account for 9.2% of mass shootings and account for 20% of the American population. (-10.8%)

Asian people account for 5.4% of mass shootings and account for 7% of the American population. (-1.6%)

Only one ethnic group accounts for a larger percentage of shootings than their percentage of the population.
