I see no one addressed my comment. EdwardA, you are partly right. Yes many Black have fought and achieved gains in this country and abroad. What you should have also said is that it does not do the black community any good when we are stereotyped and lumped together because of an individual's action. Which is again happening in this thread.
I'm having difficulty finding tea party on my voter registration card and as a moniker to these people you speak of. My tinfoil hat isn't strong enough perhaps?
Your a tea party supporter. I listed both members and supporters
It has a lot to do with it. In particular the same bahavior exhibited by Black Americans vis a vis flash mobs, wanton violence and generally uncivil behavior in the US is now being exported internationally.
I maintain the Black inner city culture is a cancer among civilized peoples and is having a disasterous impact on the healthy development and comportment of many young black people.
What's sad is this young man on the surface seems to be educated enough to land a teaching job overseas but his adherance to this assinine, destructive culture has now made him a pariah in a lovely country.
Part of the problem is discipline is not handled equally at our public schools amongst the different races. I've been in education a long time and have seen it first hand.
If a white child exibits misbehavior A and a minority child exhibits the same misbehavior, often times the minority child receives a harsher consequence.
At majority white schools, the children generally don't have to wear uniforms and have more freedom at school (i.e. don't have to be guided to lunch, dismissal times etc). I've seen a lot of majority minority schools where the children have to wear uniforms and are punished for every little misstep.
This extends into adult law enforcement where minorities are punished more harshly for the same crimes. Part of the reason for this, of course, is that whites generally can afford better legal representation. The police know this. This is why the police pull over the poorest looking people. They know they have a better shot of meeting a quota since the poor person will have to go with a PD in court.
Point being, we should not forget all of the factors that contribue to the culture this poster is referring to.

I see you're still trying to parade yourself in front of white people, saying, "see? I'm not like those Black people! Please treat me like I'm different! I'll do anything!"
And it still doesn't work. Keep on trying though.
