I know and it's bullshite. It's not like these potential criminals aren't racist...I'm sure if I wandering in the wrong area of the city at night I'd be 100x more likely to be messed with than another black kid wearing a hoodie. It's just basic street smarts to evaluate an area and tell if you belong or not. Living in NYC definitely taught me to make quick decisions of if I belonged in an area at night or not and the places I occasionally was in at night couldn't hold a candle to some areas of the country.

If the white guy decided to keep his hair cleanly cut and avoid the tattoo parlor, does he still pose a threat?

Is there a good way to read a twitter conversation? I'm 23 and feel like an idiot when it comes to this site.

I don't fricking know? Ask Marc Cuban or your other racist friends on here. I don't give a frick who you are, no one is going to scare me to the other side of the street because of how they look or especially dress. Pussification of America.

Nice diversion though.

Basically he's getting the public ready for the fact they aren't going to vote to remove Sterling.

So you, like Cuban, admit you have a preconceived bias against someone you don't know?

He said he would walk to the other side of street late at night if a black kid in a hoodie was approaching, but covered himself by adding he would do the same thing if he crossed a white dude with tattoos.


Hell, I'm black and I would do the same thing too

There's no greater example of the pussification of America than the PC police and the idea of holding back your opinion because it could hurt somebody's feelings

Here's a link to Cuban's twitter: LINK Just below the tweet you can click on a link that says View conversation, its pretty simple to follow from there.

Considering Sterling made those comments in private I don't agree with the NBA. But what Cuban said was nothing close to the same. So no, I don't think the NBA should or will do anything.

I'm black and I agree. I do the same things he was talking about.
