African-American Appreciation Thread - Highlighting contributions from our most productive citizens

I know it’s “the bigger they are the harder they fall” but you really have to pick your battles wisely with some of the bigguns out there. 😆

The idea is to make sure they don't fall on top of you




I work at an convenience store. I asked the boyfriend for ID.. he says his ID is broken so he didn’t want to take it out of the case. Finally he pulls it out, he then proceeds to threaten me and then his girlfriend (with a baby in hand) starts trashing the store, tried spitting on me me and threw a soda can at my face

She broke a 1500$ register which is likely a felony. Got their license plate and called the police. Man I can’t even feel safe at My job. All I’m trying to do is my job to make ends meet, I shouldn’t feel threatened on the job.

Cops also pulled cameras in the store so they got everything. Lady is probably going to jail. Her boyfriend was just threatening bodily ja but didn’t attack me like her. She chased me around the store so I went in the back and hid

So what's the story here? Did two school girls really find new mathematical proofs of Pythagoras theorem, or is this a bunch of hype like the list of black inventors?

i wouldn't at all doubt that a college student could figure out something that entire schools of mathematicians couldn't, no matter their race... there's some damn smart savants popping up now and then, and intelligence statistics don't affect the intellect of a single individual
however
1. mainstream news is gay and i wouldn't believe them so easily
and 2. the way they go "theehee yeah we just figured out a bunch, and then a bunch more (: but like, maff is totes haaaaaawd (:" makes me think it's a load of shit bullshit
