I will never understand why people who have such a deep seated hatred for Black people spend so much time and energy discussing us.

They weren't doing anything productive with those resources, so we took the bull by the horns. Be jealous.

Because we're rebeling against the government, Hollywood and the mainstream media by keeping the truth alive.

Say what?! Can you be a race while being an ethnicity or nationality or commonwealthian? I believe you can.

If they attacked her because of her appearance and not her hair or skin color then why did they attack her? What aspect of her appearance? You know it's because of her color, hair and features and because those are closer to white than black. As far as her being mixed there is a high probability because she is Puerto Rican but not absolute. You just hate to think that black people can be racists. There's no avoiding it. And you don't have to attack a white person or asian to exclusively be a racist. The victim can be Latino too who might have african ancestry. Afterall the same (false) accusation of racism was made of Zimmerman and he's 1/4 Black Black Black. Oh it's ok when you make the accusations but others meh not. Puhlease.

Ssy what?! That has no bearing on the video or what we are talking about. That's like saying that white racist hate crimes don't exist because white people attack other white people all the time.

Because Africans and Indians were so kind and gentle towards their own.

My grandparents were Polish and Hungarian immigrants...they were treated like **** and worked in life threatening conditions...but still made it work and didn't whine about it.

Is that the awesome white experience?

Actually, no. West Of Encino didn't do anything in this instance. You act as if HE didn't something to be seen as bad. He, like me, is just sick and tired of all the people out there complaining about Black people. It is not doing anything to improve race relations. All it's doing is alienating people. It creates more problems. If all you wish to do is complain, then you are wasting your time. What has complaining done for you?
