More fulminations from the fevered neronal clump named Bob Whitaker:

Actually, a really clever person might well have concluded that there's
little evidence for much agreement by the persons discussing race and
genetics here beyond a possible agreement that you've demonstrated no
familiarity with any of the issues being discussed, and that you've got
this tendency to use phrases like "Politically Coirrect" [sic] when you
have nothing of substance to say.

Your reading comprehension seems a trifle lacking here. For those of us
not living on Planet Bob, what seems apparent is that you've made both
claims and not come with a single bit of evidence to support that view.
Zip. Nada. Zilch.

I'm sure that there are folks who'd *love* to be challenged. You may have
noticef that several of the interlocuters have done exactly *that.* But
(and here's the secret part, Bob) in order to *do* that, one must be
prepared to back the assertions you make. You've not done so. I'm really
curious about why that should be so difficult. All you have to do is to
give us the *name* of one of your authorities "fired" for their views on
race. Of course, your assertion will be a little tougher to prove since
a couple of folks here have actually given *you* the names of folks whose
views *are* considered questionable who have *not* been fired. You getting
the hang of this, Bob? Remember that sequence: Assertion-Evidence-Rebuttal.
You've forgotten 2 and 3.

The pesky business for you here is that the "authorities who deny them" refutes
your claim that anyone who holds a controversial view is fired. Since those
folks still have their jobs, your initial claim has been shown to be false.
Those things around your ankles are your pants, oh Whitless one. Would you
care to either modify your initial claim (i.e. "Some persons who hold
unpopular views have been fired) and name some names? I thought not

What sort of academic *were* you supposed to be, anyhow? It sure can't
have been anything that required a grasp of logic, rhetoric, or grammar....
Rejoice always,
Gregory
