You out here telling us what race this boy REALLY is, as if you know better than his own mother, as if you think that there is some strict system of classification which excludes people with a white parent from the category "Black". I'm half expecting you to prove he's a criminal by whipping out some calipers and measuring his skull.


This comment about racial science, because I believe that describing her son as black in this context constitutes "race-baiting", is a low-blow and I believe is in bad faith and constitutes flamebaiting.

Democracy extends the sphere of individual freedom, socialism restricts it. Democracy attaches all possible value to each man; socialism makes each man a mere agent, a mere number. Democracy and socialism have nothing in common but one word: equality. But notice the difference: while democracy seeks equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in restraint and servitude.

Not actionable. Also bad faith only applies to moderation and a few other locations.
