So you're saying that because one person's ancestors came here volunteerly and another's came here by force, the ones whose ancestors came by force cannot learn the same way -- cannot function in society -- must be forced to associate with the majority in order to be educated?

Are you trying to imply that only the slow ones got caught and sent the the Americas -- and so their offspring, one hundred years later are still slow and need help thriving in America?

There's just no pretty way to tell a race of people that they aren't capable of making it without "our" help.

Tell the Asians they came here overloaded with advantages.

LOTS of white American's ancestory came over as indentured servants. It's not that black and white.
