This post is the stupidest post I've read in 6 months.
=I know I had my a$$ handed to me on a silver platter and now need to repeat something I said before such as:

Quote:
So a white person whose family wasn't even in the country during the era of Slavery should be forced to endure the stain of it because of "his white skin"?
Only change a few words so I don't like like a complete yutz.

Quote:
Who is being racist now? You don't see any white guys in here blaming black people in Oakland for Somali piracy just because both groups are black.
No, what you see is a white guy who does his best to make American blacks look as bad as possbile. If you can repeat yourself, so can I. Oh and to answer your question, you are being racist now, thanks for asking.

BTW, learn what quoting actually is. You simply copied and pasted Alexus' post and had no response for it what so ever because you know you can't argue with it.

Here's why you look like a bigoted a$$hole:

Quote:
His point though that black dominated communities have lots of crime is spot on. That can't be denied.
Harp #1

Quote:
That aside, black communities tend to have higher crime. That's a fact.
Harp #2 (same page)

Quote:
so how long do black people get to use slavery as their scapegoat to explain all the problems in their community
Quote:
Al Sharpton rants.
Quote:
Slavery is a tired cop out, plain and simple
Quote:
I think blaming black crime on slavery is actually more disrespectful towards black people than anything the KKK could come up with.
I could have gone on and on but you get the idea and this post is long enough.

oh ok. They've changed those routes a lot over the years. I used to take it from downtown to the lake once I got to downtown from Berkeley.

This is what young black culture has become:




How can you possibly blame this on all white people? It's not white people buying these CDs in droves, it's primarily young blacks.

And ROFL at you talking about hip hop... those subjects weren't even in Hip Hop until wealthy white record executives finally realized that hip hop wasn't a passing 80's fad and that the same topics that sold rock (sex, drugs and rock and roll) could sell hip hop. Hip Hop is about a whole lot of things... it's as big and expansive of a genre as rock. For you to pigeon-hole it based on your limited listening experience is ignorant... I could just as easily make a generalization about any other genre. Trust me when I say that I know more about the subject than you...
This highly respected black guy begs to differ:

ROFL... you obviously have no idea just how wrong you can be. 70% of hip hop's consumer base right now is suburban white teenagers (and particularly teenage girls). It's been that way for about 10 years...

America's Holy Hip-Hop: America's Holy Hip-Hop

"Although hip-hop got its start in black America, today a staggering 70 to 80 per cent of hip-hop albums are purchased by whites."

Seriously. Stop talking about subjects you know absolutely nothing about.

That statistic is uncited and it doesn't state what research metric company posted it. Article dismissed.

How Hip-Hop Holds Blacks Back by John H. McWhorter, City Journal Summer 2003

Don't see citations on this article either.


And if you need more articles...

HSAN.org | Billboards

"Today 70 percent of hip-hop is bought by white kids."

Sales of Rap Albums Take Stunning Nosedive - Celebrity Gossip | Entertainment News | Arts And Entertainment - FOXNews.com

"While rap has been in essence pop music for years, and most rap consumers are white..."


Even Fox News knows that white people are the majority of hip hop sales. Face it... you don't know what you're talking about.

Translation: "I'm going to stand by citing a comedian for being a credible source."


In that case...



YouTube - Jeff Foxworthy's Redneck Definitions



YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.



YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.


All poor white people are illiterate rednecks who live in trailer parks and live off of welfare.


What you've been saying:


All poor black people are illiterate thugs who live in the ghetto and live off of welfare.


Seriously... get real.
