was surfing net, O'Reilly on in background....me sitting in a Comfort INN ( looks just like Flossy's

)

Then O'Reilly states " 70% of African American babies are born out of wedlock. WTH? that can't be true.

That does seem like a lot. Perhaps there's a proviso to that stat.

I work with a 23 year old black lady who has 3 kids and isnt married. Shes on maternity leave right now.

Not trying to stereotype black people, just showing my disgust for fat cows who have lots of kids.

One must be weary of O'Reilly's "No Truth...err Spin Zone" statistics.

O'Reilly is a windbag, but his statistics are correct in this case. The Great Society programs succeeded in just about tripling out-of-wedlock birthrates in America. You probably won't hear that on CNN.

You know the old joke .
whats the deffinition of mass confussion?
fathers day in black town.

My point is you can't blame the african american women .
I think the blame must lie on the dudes that get them pregnate then haul prettythang.

You have to tell who the father is here in Ma. or you cannot collect any assistance. But I don't see what this has to do with african Americans.

Why not? Did someone force them to spread their legs?

So what's more disturbing to y'all...the fact O'Reilly made a good point with valid data....or that the data is accurate?

Some of ya seem to be shooting the messenger.

the majority of them "on assistance" are AA females

if they were required to raise them on their own dime, maybe they would be less likely to have them in the first place
