That one went out of style in the 60s or so. Very few Blacks of today practice it and it certainly isn't the dominant culture of Blacks today. Sorry.

Sorry, but you have no idea what you are talking about. How about you come to some middle class black areas and find out truth, prior to spewing forth ignorance when it comes to blacks of today.

you mean ghetto black culture is in a league of its own. but, since that is what the media likes to portray, that is what people think is the norm.

Actually, posts like this feed into white racist stereotypes. Out of the hundreds (possibly thousands) of black people in the MOA shopping and minding their own business, there were a handful of idiots throwing chairs and fighting. Most of the other shoppers, were either trying to get out of the way and a handful appeared to be trying to break up the fight. People who look at situations like this and see it as an indictment against black people or "urban youth black male culture" (whatever that is) don't really need a reason to hold racist views.
