He's quite obviously talking about individuals, not groups. And that is the entire reason, as far as I am concerned, to care about libertarianism at all. The intense focus on individuals and their rights and not groups and their rights.

As a Korean American, one thing I noticed was that no matter how much I contribute to society (because it is my personal belief to be a good person/citizen.. not so much because I want to "fit in") such as joining the army after 9/11 and going to Afghanistan to fight, volunteering for numerous community services, paying my taxes, working in healthcare, etc. the overwhelming majority of Americans I face on a day to day basis look at me and treat me like I don't belong here. I'm used to it.

If he we correct, this channel wouldn't be shadow banning info I want to include in the comments. The speaker wouldn't have to ignore history that proves him otherwise, he wouldn't have to dodge debates with people capable of refuting his arguments. This website wouldn't censor and shadow ban differing views they do not want people to discover.

I love America, it's people and it's national culture 😄❤️🇺🇸

[@SCHaworth]

Hmm... a fair point. Respectfully - I pose to you an honest question. - While I agree you can determine by average, what groups will under-perform; can you account the circumstances responsible for the individual and/or minority out-liars?

[@Cennedi]

You speak the truth.

[@Pasovineyard]

Wow! Nice spin.

[@almulla]

talk about collective judgment of a nation or race of people, so much for being libertarian...most of what you mention relates to a fault of government that wants power than a fault of people who just want a better life for themselves and their family.

Do Somali Muslim UN refugee immigrants undermine American values? That's a question specific enough to answer. Google "Somali gangs" and get the facts and decide for yourself instead of relying on vague platitudes and positive stereotypes about ALL immigrants. The whole point of immigration policy is to determine WHICH immigrants to let in.

[@Stoicgenuis]

Just because you don’t like something doesn’t me they should be banned from coming in
