Defintely not what I expected. I considered that between Jemele Hill, and Whitlock, they would of been painting this guy as the Anti Christ.

Impressive article, is impressive JWhit. Myself, a Caucasian who grew up in the hood in North Carolina, who spent many days running home from the bus stop because I was white, especially during the Rodney King riots, I have very little understanding of this. One day when playing pick up football in my neighborhood, after being called a cracker, honky, whitey all day long, laid out a guy on a pass play, and said something to the affect of, "keep your black ass down." 7 boys none white, beat my ass down. After all day of being called every white derogatory name in the book, I was stunned by this, and then I realized that race, and using anything racial just isn't called for under any circumstance.

I fought in two deployments, with Mexicans, Whites, Blacks, Hmongs, Asians, and honestly, race doesn't bother me.

What does bother me though, is late at night, when I am watching tv, and I see an add for blackpeople.com


Can you imagine a web site if it was called White people.com? Could you imagine the BACKLASH that would cause? The god father of my son, and my best friend is black, the first girl I ever had sex with, black, I have dated Mexican, white, black, Asian, and I have made derogatory remarks towards a person and included a racial tone to it. I have used derogatory remarks, all the time on COD, it slips out like a second language. "you are such a f##," on more than one occasion.

Im not homophobic, as most of the time, with my group that I run with, we have a gay guy on our team. Doesn't bother me. just something to say.

One time when Vince Carter was playing against the Timberwolves, and Wally Szerbiack (sp) was guarding him. Vince looked at the Timberwolves bench, and said, "If you leave this white boy on me, ill score 40." Its all unneeded bullshit. And I hate it. I hate it that we hold on to these racial tensions relentlessly, and make national stories out of this.


On twitter yesterday, I said in Jest, "when are the pounceys gonna be seen with their Free Riley Cooper hats."

There are people, who actually would defend Aaron Hernandez, but we crucify a racial slur as if it was murder. We as a society, need to get our priorities in order.
