A Clockwork Black

'The newly formed Equality and Human Rights Commission, successor to the Commission for Racial Equality, said it was studying Dr Watson's remarks "in full". Dr Watson told The Sunday Times that he was "inherently gloomy about the prospect of Africa" because "all our social policies are based on the fact that their intelligence is the same as ours – whereas all the testing says not really". He said there was a natural desire that all human beings should be equal but "people who have to deal with black employees find this not true".'

I dare say that there would be many Cape Republicans who would agree to the above statement. Part of this is due to the fact that the black man has never invented anything. He also doesn't understand negative statements, like 'no' “Don't break the fucking hammer” will result in a broken hammer.

But let us not harp on that one shall we?

Truth is: no-one starts off the same. Some of us are born into poor families. Some of us are born into wealthy families. Some of us have genetic disorders. Some don't.

Take it further. Some who are born into poverty uplift themselves to great riches. Some don't. Not all of us have the same abilities – I can make a really good cocktail. Can you? Sure, my accounting abilities may be lacking – but I make no claims to being a rocket scientist because of being a shaker-nator.

We dare not treat everyone the same. It simple doesn't work that way and it never will. And yes. One can claim that all the above statements are 'racialist' in nature – the exact thing I would expect of someone who is being PC.
