the reason is because it didnt bother me. i was just curious as to why black people are prone to outbursts in movie theaters. you seem to be in denial about that fact so i suppose i won't be getting an explanation.




Oh it bothered you.

Black people are an emotional people thats why.

No what I said was or meant to say was black on black crime is no different than white on white crime.


But black on black crime is happening at a much higher rate than white on white crime

13% of the population... 51% of murders
Vs
72% of the population... 61% of murders

Does that not make it different? I haven't run the numbers but it seems statistically significant

I'm not going to speculate on why this is, because it's multifactoral. But you may want to start by acknowledging that there is a difference

What is it with the whole 'naming' thing? These really distinctive names with a lot of apostrophes, 'Q's' etc?

Not African names, that I can somewhat understand. but, the weird arse names.

black people often favor other black people in areas/competitions/fields etc. in which blacks aren't well represented (and that's completely fine and understandable, IMO).

do you consider it racist when whites do the same? for example, if i were to say gordon hayward was my favorite player because he's the only star who looks like me, is that bad?

Yes blacks commit crime at an exponentially more higher rate than whites.

I see where we had the disconnect.

I don't know. My son is named after me and I have very white name. If we have a daughter for our next child my wife wants to name her Nia. I was like no way jose. I want her to get a job interview when she graduates.

Granted.

No. Hell, I root for white RBs and CBs to do well for precisely that reason.

No. It helps that Hayward is objectively a solid player, though. Have always loved his game up there in Utah

Naw that's not racist The problem would be if you were like Hayward is better than Lebron. And the only reason you made that argument was because he was white.

My good friend's sister married a white guy who acts black. I mean he can fricking clean and cook chittlins. He eats pig feet pig tails pig lips you don't get any blacker than that. When I first talked to him he kept calling me brotha. I was taken a back at first but he good people. I don't have a problem with him or his lifestyle.

While in line yesterday at lowes, I was wearing flip flops, cargo shorts, a knit sweater, and my hair pushed back with some maui jims.

While checking out, the black cashier said "oooh you dressed like a white boy today baby, jus too cute"

I wasn't sure if I should be offended. So I just used white privilege and said, us white boys can get away with it.

So I'm curious, on a scale of 1-10, how white was my outfit and response?
