Who are these people who write this shite?

It's like they are talking to kids who yell out something about someone because they don't know any better.

It's all about context. I would think most adults would know what is appropriate to say based on their relationship with people and this doesn't just apply to black people.

There are things on here that I would say to a black person I am friends with, but it's all about in what context I say it.

quote:

I love NWA

quote:

NFL players shouldn’t take a knee


Whoever wrote this, have they ever been around black people? And if they are black, did they grow up only around white people?

I grew up listening to NWA, if someone ask me if I like them I will say yes, because I do. And if I am naming groups I like to a black person, I will say "I like NWA....". If that offends them then I am not the problem.

quote:

NFL players shouldn’t take a knee


And not every black person supports NFL players taking a knee. In fact, a lot of older black people don't. It seems to be kind of racist to assume every black person supports NFL players taking a knee.

In fact, it never really bothered me at all. I said that in a conversation in which a black man was involved in and he said "Nobody cares about Colin Kaepernick. Him and all his little followers need to stand up and bring that bullshite somewhere else".

quote:

You should join our company basketball team.




No all black people like basketball, I would think someone would say "hey you play basketball? We have a company team if you want to hoop with us".

But i do love NWA. Of course black women dont wash their hair nightly, just like white women, or brown women etc fricking etc. I AM scared to get pulled over man tickets are expensive and some cops are dicks. Whats wrong with trying to find a fricking common bond to break the ice with? Not every black person thinks they will be summarily executed if the police pull them over. They are worried about getting and paying for a ticket and higher insurance. Who thinks all black folk are Baptist? Sounds like someone is just hanging about with some dumb arse white chick and needs to get far away from her.

This might be one of the dumbest things about race I've ever read.

I usually get a good reaction using the phrase "You people." Or "Those people."
