Can I ask you a question? Do you know any black people that feel the system is keeping them down? Or are you basing you opinion off of the claims of the NAACP, and the Black structure that exists in the media? I'd also like to tack on that MOST of the people incarcerated in America (regardless of race) are non-violent drug offenders. So while I agree that there's definitely violence associated with drugs in ANY poor area (Regardless of race). The idea that the majority of black incarceration is associated with violence(Whether associated with drugs or not) is just not accurate. |

I also think that in ANY poor area (Regardless of race) Public school is going to be shitty. That's just how it goes.

I hadnt seen him for 20 years then moved back to my hometown and bumped into him again, we started hanging out until i found out he was a crack dealer... always wanting a ride somewhere for something... a prospect that made me nervous as hell, thats why i cut off all contact with him shortly thereafter. Superfluous info here, but he had a chance to be so much better than he is now, his mom is the mother of one of Ken Nortons kids and she tried to put him on the right path with her connections. Drug violence? sorry, i'm not buying what you're saying, black neighborhoods are the most violent in every single place i've lived. |

I can honestly say I've never leveled that word at anyone identifiable or any identifiable group. I have said it in reciting a joke I heard or read, but I make no apologies for my love of aggressive shocking humor.
And I have the background for [and, winning in the end, against] it. My two best friends were jacked in the Crown Center parking garage when they were 16 by a prowling group of AAs, put them in the hospital, ended up with a settlement from Crown Center. My mom's side of the family is in the deep south and it was as simple as saying someone's proper name. I can remember as young as 5-6 playing with kids at the laundromat and my grandma whispering salaciously 'get away from them n___s, boy.' I watched my uncle throw half of his stepdaughter's stuff out on the lawn because she was running around town with a group that included a couple n___r boys. That last was particularly ironic as he had no problem with his step-brother coming around with his black twink boyfriend. Even my mom went into a tizzy in the early 90s when there was a house on the market on our block and a black family came to check it out, peering through the curtains and muttering under her breath. But they gave me a shit ton of leeway as a kid growing up [amazing because they stayed out of my 'romantic' life as well, while my younger sister got the eagle eye throughout puberty and never had a closed bedroom door from age 13 on], and I made friends with the minorities as a matter of course, tastes in music, love of soccer, BMX-skateboard culture all contributed. Then in college I had a black roommate for two years who subverted every stereotype, dude was Count-RY!! Studying for a pilot's license, pledged Alpha Gamma Rho [the farmer's frat], music major with agriculture minor, listened most always to classical music. Funny story, his dad was even more nerdy than him, and showed up at the end of the first year to take him home wearing a t-shirt with a huge triangle with a rainbow inside it he'd found at Goodwill, Jamaal had to explain to him he was wearing a LGBT shirt.

This is off topic from the Riley Cooper incident, but I recall Whitlock being extremely critical of Andy Reid from afar when he was still coaching the Eagles. The national media has always loved Andy Reid and criticized Philadelphia for wanting a change at coach, but Whitlock was never an Andy Reid fan.
What has he said about the hire from the Chiefs? I know Whitlock used to be a KC writer(KC Star I thought?). I don't know if he is anymore. I don't follow him all that closely.
