When will people wake up and realize not all black people play the victim role; in fact most don't. You claim to have first hand experience but I'm black. .trust we aren't thinking like that. The media loves to perpetuate that myth by interviewing the jessy Jacksons of the world because it's good tv. Last edited by ThatRaceCardGuy; 08-02-2013 at 10:31 PM.. |

For the record, i dont claim anything here i havent personally experienced and never will, i refuse to be a lying shit in real life and refuse to be one on my favorite website. I'll give you another example of my gripes... a few weeks back i posted a link in the zimmerman thread from a site called Bossip, a black joint, in multiple spots in the comments section an actual site administrator was telling obviously white posters with strictly non-vulgar, thoughtful posts "why dont you just leave and go to TMZ or some shit, we dont want you here". There was NO room for another take, just a bunch of barely legible nonsense. |

Mods do that all the time. You think an anti gun guy would be treated well on a pro NRA site? Same thing with a Republican posting on a Democratic site. Take away race and its people being people when it comes to a topic their passionate about. |

Ok, i'll give you one three year slice of my perspective from a one car dealership.
In my three years there, we had a minimum of 10 black dudes come in asking for applications, God as my witness all but one was wearing a t-shirt and jeans, some nicer looking jeans and t-shirts, some not so nice looking... but still, a t-shirt and friggin jeans into a professional environment, hands in the pockets, looking at the floor, mumbling. Of those ten, there was one single dude who obviously had his shit together... dressed sharp, engaging personality, chatted us salesmen up before his interview, big smile... this guy knew how to get a job. To a man we wanted this guy hired, "hey, i like him, he could be a good one"... but the owner was a hardcore old racist... Now, does that tell you that "yep, every whitey is a racist who'll never see past it"... or that seven other guys were like "yep, i can work with him?' Like i said earlier, there is no perfect world, but seven out of eight wanted that guy hired on the spot and grumbled amongst each other after he wasnt, because we needed another man, the owners excuse was "no car experience"... but do you see whre i'm going? for every example of whitey being a true turd, MOST are fairminded people who recognize a man when they see him. |

And I think Stephen A. Smith can be irritating because he thinks he has a great vocabulary when he oftentimes misuses words or uses too many fashionable words and phrases. But I saw what he said on today's show, and I do not know why you got any impression that we was claiming to be a spokesman for a larger group of people. I think he made a fair point because I am not convinced that there is any good reason to continue using the N-word, or any other racial naughty word in any form by anybody. If there is a such thing as a black community that unifies over issues like the killing of Trayvon Martin or other issues, successful and psychologically sound black people ought to remember just how many unsuccessful, troubled black kids are growing up to become unsuccessful, troubled adults. If the black community wants to do something about that, I think teaching young people better habits and better values would help and a lot of the music that they listen to ain't helping; and the way some of the parents talk to them ain't helping; and the way that some of their peers talk to them ain't helping.

Maverick, the reason this is getting more backlash than even Zimmerman is because the Saul Alinsky Media recognizes that Cooper is a full fledged 'caucasian male' and not a white hispanic so now this 'roasting' will get to the 'charred stage' for sure and will go on for who knows how long |

You're making a sweeping judgement about a genre of music and the people who listen to it. I think that in any situation if a person isn't raised right, they're going to have trouble assimilating into contemporary society. Regardless of race. That's more of a class thing to me. The "Black community" can unify over Trayvon Martin, but I think there were a lot of people unified over that incident. Not just black people. And that's really my point. That's what I was saying about Stephen A. Smith. All black people don't think the same. And all black people don't care about other black people. I don't feel any responsibility to teach these little mother****ers anything. **** them. Like if you see a white kid that's a punk you're not gonna be like, "Let me steer this young man in the right direction" **** him. I don't know that little mother****er. Now, there's no stereotype associated with white teens and young men, so maybe it's different. I know My family and the people I associate with are good dudes. And that's really all that matters to me. I think it's more important for Fathers to be in the home. I think that's huge. |

Given that there was a system of institutionalized apartheid for about 185 years in a swath of this country, I'm cool with giving them an extra word in the vocabulary.
