A tiny percentage of negroes are very successful at sports, particularly track and field.

You may well do, but directing it at one person is one thing, at a whole group it's something else.
Of the 7 billion people on the planet 15 - 20 million are jews. About 50% of the billionaires on the planet are jewish. How can that 50% come from a teeny weeny itsy bitsy proportion of the human population?
I'd say it's reasonable to conclude that jews are very good with money, and that their skills at negotiations are, in general, superlative.
May we have a reference for this 50% figure? I'm loathe to search for wealth rankings on the basis of ethnicity, as that has proved a troublesome metric historically. More problematic still is how one identifies these "Jews" in regions not defined by religion, say Asia? Is there a register for religion in this database you allude to? Why don't you share what is really on your mind with us all.

Far more successful than whites, for example.
Would you agree?
Do you mean people of African descent? What does your phrenology website say about this anthropologic conundrum?

Have you swallowed a dictionary this evening Jethro?
Your pc indignant radar doesn't miss a trick on here does it, as soon as colour, religion or race is questioned, you're all over it like a rash. Is it just in cyber space you are like that? or do your ears prick up and home in on such matters when you are out and about, having a beer or cup o tea, whatever. I suppose what I am saying is, are you a full time pc policeman or just a pc special constable?

I have an education, if that is what scares you so.

Again, you are talking about outliers.
Anyway, my impression is that black or "of African descent" are preferred terms. Terms for something which is pretty hard to define when you start looking at it closely. Of little "taxonomic significance" as some would say.
Personally, I'd rather consider each person as an individual rather than according to some label. Then I won't prejudge anyone.

Are you at all surprised to see the twelvie edgelord use outdated and, in some cases, racist terms?

On that basis, Kevin Myers's opinion is equally as valid as yours.
It's nothing to do with outliers. Spot the white boy.
As well as setting the fastest times, why have blacks consistently dominated the Olympic 100 meter dash?

They're called negroes. Does that word bother you?

PC policeman indeed, and yet he effortlessly uttered the racist slur "cracker" on another thread.

You think olympic sprinters are not outliers?
Show me the stats which show that on average all dark-skinned people of african descent (not just those from certain parts of Africa) are faster sprinters than people of different skin colour and you will begin to make your case.

See! Porno has-been Tom Baker has 'em all at it.
Speaking of Tom Baker, I was told by a Brit I know that back when BT had his voice reading texts sent to landlines, he, as an awkward teen with a girlfriend, sent her a particularly steamy text message. But in his teenaged ineptness, he accidentally sent it to her home number, where her dad had a landline phone right next to his bed. Long story short, he's responsible for the dad of his girlfriend at the time getting a particularly dirty phone call from the 4th Doctor in the middle of the night.

FFS! When Tom Baker was a teen they were still sending dirty telegrams.
