YOU SERIOUS?  Hmm.  Thanks for that info.  Are you seeing this post?  Bob,
you asked me to email you.  I did - to the email addy I see on these posts
for you.  Just to let you know I did do that.  Did I email the wrong place?
I'm at nakived at juno dot com.  Hope spam bots don't read that.

Actually - whoever said that - yeah, there are ways to explain that kind of
behavior in NOT ALL blacks, but enough of them to make them stand out.  It's
actually a kind of small percent of them - but they stand out moreso than
say an Irish person would stand out.  How many white criminals and etc etc
are Irish?  What percent of Irish are here?  And etc.  For one thing, they
DO stand out - noticeably.  Self hate can explain all of it.  Individual
people that behave that way have it, no matter who they are - they hate
self, hate life, etc.  Not all self-haters act out that way, but combine
self-hate with scape-goating - and you got MY theory on it.  Psychological.
Well behaved blacks agree with that - and there are a lot of well-behaved
religious blacks I run into.  As for the OOW thing, well, didn't The Man PAY
them to stay home and pay them more for each kid?  Yeah, that was done.
Stupid thing to do.

That would be chemistry, Bob.  Hmm.  Sardines -  the kind in a can, like
King Oscar brand - they have HIGH sat fat - but eat them every day and you
WILL get raised HDL good cholesterol.  Raise the HDLs if you can't really
lower the LDLs.  Also, they are finding that raised LDLs are there for a
reason in people that don't really DO anything or EAT anything that would
account for high levels.  Too low LDL is bad too - something about cortisol.

The whole cholesterol thing is a can of worms that had to be reopened.
Alchohol raises HDL, lowers LDL - and they don't know why.  Science journals
report it.  Doctors will NOT tell patients this.  SOME sat fat gets
converted to HDL - they don't know why.  Statin drugs lower LDL - but they
don't prevent heart attack or stroke at all - the rates are still the same.
Stress causes cells to grow in heart as if heart was stabbed, really
injured.  Very Bad.  Transfats in foods (any kind of hydrogenated vegetable
oil) that claim to have NO cholesterol of sat fat - they raise LDL, LOWER
HDL!!! and raise triglycerides.  Triply bad.  They only JUST found that out.
So then, people have been eating poison and thinking it was low cholesterol
food.  The experts don't know TOO MUCH when it comes to this.

Nim said, awhile back, to get a C REACTIVE PROTEIN test if you want to know
if you are really at risk of heart problems.  I have no clue what that is -
but you can get the test.  People with low cholesterol might have high risk,
and so forth.  Cholesterol tends to go up in women during menopause, too -
no one knows why.  Some research shows that LDL goes up when body is
injured, like soft tissue stuff.  So trying to lower it with no sat fat
food - is not gonna work.  And it doesn't work.
