Alright, then, for the kinky people out there, I amend my post.
Just because you pay someone $20 to slap you upside the face doesn't mean that you shouldn't not be a pain. There. Happy? >.< |

I don't think it's unreasonable for me to assume that when I ask to return to the topic of the thread, people also do me the curtesy of not ignoring me.
So please, back on topic, everyone? [EDIT: If anyone misses them, yes I deleted some off-topic posts since my last warning.]

I wish there was a way an originator of a thread could ask to close it down.
Or maybe I should say never post when vexed. The old timers here know I have traveled a bit. And it is not a racial problem it is a HUMAN problem. Where people look the same they disparage something about them. If they are of the same religion they disparage something about them. If they are the same sex they disparage something about them. It is simply in-groups bias. I doubt that in EVERY country that I have been to that there is an Illumnati that has as its sole aggenda to keep "those" people down. It's not a !@#$% conspiracy it's human nature since day one. There are those who fit in the system and those that don't. There are some who what to keep some out of the system and some who don't want to be in it. Because I am black it makes me angry and sad when I see "ghetto stupidity". Soley, because I hate to think that someone would place me in the same cast. Blaming the goverment and crying victim will not change it. You know what, in-group bias is part of human nature. No matter how many degrees I attain or how well I fit in, I will still be a nigger in somebody's eyes. On the flip side I will always be a white-boy oreo sell out to somebody. I doubt that there is operation "crush niggy" Or in Korea operation "crush Cholla-da" Or operation ( crush the oatmeal savages) in the UK Look at the UK and the "rivalries" there. Do you think that Tony Blair is out to keep the Geordies down? I am NOT saying the goverment doesn't do bad things but that I doubt there is a conspiracy behind "EVERY" thing that YOU don't agree with. AE

I just wanted to add that I am not affected as much by Barrio stupidity, or White trash stupidity, "Tong" stupidity. I don't have the same emotional hurdles there that I have with "ghetto" stupidity. When I see "white trash" culture I just think stupid. The race does not measure as much. But when I see Black people " embracing it it irks me.
And the biggest difference between "ghetto stupidity" and other low class cultural behavior is that the entertainmet industry makes a lot of money off and thus its more in our faces. But Barrio, white trash, tong, ghetto stupidity is all equally bad. Poor English, poor education, violence, broken homes etc... It is a human condition not a veiled conspiracy

Maybe seeing how others are actually laughing AT them....and NOT with them....will help instill that it is not cool or desirable to be "stupid" anymore....example, the new "Flavor of Love"....that show is so bad this second season.....there is not one girl on there I am interested in knowing more about....and the guys are just using the girls to laugh at. I'm not sure how much of that show is "let's make fun of desperate young girls with zero morals" or "lets make fun of young black girls" ....
(geez...the season opener ends with a girl defecating on the floor.... ....)
