When Bill King came back from the war in Afghanistan, danger followed him all the way to San Francisco. You could say I live an exciting life. I would rather watch it on television. My name is Bill King. A month after I moved to California I was sitting in a bar in San Francisco’s Mission District. At about 9:00 I decided to go back to the apartment of the friend I was staying with. When I left the bar I heard a man yelling obscene insults at two Hispanic women who had just left a restaurant. My parents raised me not to be that way. I thought he should not be that way either. I walked over to talk to him. “Why are you yelling at those women?” I asked. “They’re Mexican.” “So?” “This is our country.

He was the co-inventor of the transistor, which is used in all modern day computing, and electronic technology. He was a professor at Stanford, and at one point became very concerned with the problem of dysgenics in society.  He started to do research, and he found evidence that suggested that Blacks tend to be less intelligent than Whites on average, and that intelligence is largely hereditary.  He also found evidence to suggest that Blacks seem to have a higher rate of dysgenic fertility than Whites.  The graphic he liked to use showed that the fertility rate of rural and less educated Black females was much higher than that of the college educated Black females. This ratio for Blacks was sig...
