I bet if you could account for black families consisting of married mother/father living under the same roof, the gap narrows significantly

One of my fav restaurants is in BR. Very humble owner and staff. That said, I completely avoid any establishment that advertises the BOB BS. It's simple racism at it's finest.

Exactly.

After that is accounted for, what remains is cultural differences in the purpose and value of money.

Everyone should note that response - “every other month” - when people lecture about how there is no such thing as white culture/history.

It’s been a convenient villain for decades, but now that some people are slightly less shy about owning it you’re hearing “wait, what is this ‘white culture’ thing you claim exists” (see Sen. Chris Murphy).

Being a veteran means that they served the nation, signed up and accomplished something.
Locally owned means possibly supporting your community
Made in the USA supports your fellow countrymen
Almost everything else is just divisive or panders in a way that goes against what the group stands for. The various groups want equal treatment, but special space and special consideration. Want to be able to freely exercise their beliefs, but not be held to the same standards as others. Be able to say I don’t believe in that so everyone else must bend to their whim. It gets tiring.

Great question. When I see a sign that says support black owned business I will not shop there because I am afraid that I will be discriminated against, especially if it is a restaurant, because I don't want the Jesse Jackson "special".

If I know it's a black owned business and it does not have a sign or is not promoted as a black owned business, then I feel everyone is welcome, I have no problem supporting that business. Good business and money is color blind.

Exactly.

Lol, at people having difficulty understanding difference to these and what skin color a person has.

Same thing as saying Veteran owned business... Some people have a preference, so why not play your cards and get some extra customers?

I refuse to shop at places that advertise as Black, woman, LGBTQ+, or whatever silly box they want to put themselves in. Its just stupid in 2026 to advertise such.

Any one of the progressives who says “no” is blatantly lying.

Liberals and progressives have infantalized blacks in their minds to the point that they're convinced that blacks can't function at the most basic levels without assistance and guidance from the Great White Father. Unfortunately, they have convinced a large subset of blacks this same idea.

There are endless examples online of the agonizing caused by “it’s ok to be white”. Liberals would even call the police:
