From VDARE<\/a>: A few thoughts apropos of Steve Sailer\u2019s post, which included<\/a> Muhammad Ali\u2019s IQ, 75 and linked to Phillippe Rushton\u2019s <\/a>piece, which explained how<\/a> mystified college professors are when seemingly engaged, prepared, intelligent, garrulous and entertaining black students fail objective tests that measure learning.<\/p>\n

Rushton called this the \u201cwinning personality,\u201d and I called it a \u201ccocktail party personality\u201d in my piece about newsman Vester Flanagan\u2019s murder of two white colleagues, who worked with him at a television station in Roanoke, Va.<\/p>\n

Also linking back to Rushton, the piece explained<\/a> that many blacks in the news business are in over their heads; that is, they are mismatched<\/a>, meaning hired for jobs that do not match their skills or intelligence. They are hired not only because of affirmative action but also because they possess that winning or cocktail party personality. The most successful black journalist I\u2019ve hired was quite the opposite. He was surly and morose. He did not have a winning personality.<\/p>\n

Anyway, when self-awareness kicks in, and a black employee realizes he cannot do the job, the first instinct, particularly given the anti-white hate the media spew every day, is to blame whitey. Then, to maim or kill. The Man must be punished.<\/p>\n

Of course, the glib Muhammed Ali achieved great success, despite his IQ of 75, which psychiatrists call<\/a> \u201cborderline intellectual functioning\u201d and is just a notch above mildly retarded. Such an IQ used to be called \u201cborderline deficiency\u201d and was only a hair above what the professionals used to call a moron.<\/p>\n

One wonders what would have happened to Ali if he hadn\u2019t been a boxer, but instead had been pushed through college and into a job requiring even moderate intelligence. In the ring, he had only to fight and could release his frustrations. In college and then an office, he would have had to think, and would have been frustrated much of the day.<\/p>\n

Would that have led to another Disgruntled Minority Massacre?<\/a><\/p>\n

COMMENTS AT STEVE SAILER<\/a>:<\/p>\n

* Even as far back as 1996 (google his interview with Ed Bradley), Ali could barely mutter a few words.<\/p>\n

I wonder how Ali (when he was young) would\u2019ve reacted if he was a shown a video of himself as an older man.<\/p>\n

* M.A. in 1971 \u2013 Life is too short for me to be catching hell for something like that, I\u2019d rather be with my own, and have a beautiful daughter, beautiful wife, both look like me and we are all happy and I don\u2019t have no trouble. I ain\u2019t that in love with no women to go through all that hell, there\u2019s no one woman that good. You understand?<\/p>\n

Interviewer \u2013 I understand, I do understand, I think it\u2019s sad \u2026.<\/p>\n

M.A. \u2013 (Interrupting) It ain\u2019t sad because I want my child to look like me, every intelligent person wants their child to look like them, I\u2019m sad because I want to blot out my race and lose my identity? Chinese love Chinese they love the little slanty eye, pretty brown skin babies. Pakistani love their culture, Jewish people love their culture, a lot of catholic wanna be with Catholics and want the religion to stay the same\u2026 who would want to spot up yourself and kill your race? You\u2019re a hater of your people if you don\u2019t want to stay who you are. You ashamed of what god made you? You think he made a mistake when he made you?<\/p>\n

Interviewer \u2013 I think that\u2019s a philosophy of despair, I really do<\/p>\n

M.A. \u2013 Philosophy of despair? Here let me tell you, listen. No woman on this earth, not even a black woman in Muslim countries can please me and cook for me and socialize with me like my American black woman, no woman, and last is a white woman\u2026 can really identify with me and my feelings, and the way I act, and the way I talk\u2026. it\u2019s just nature, you can do what you want, but it\u2019s nature to want to be with your own, I want to be with my own.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
