I can understand why some people become racist

[MechDeus]

People need to learn that you don’t always have to escalate the situation at hand. If somebody looks at you wrong, look at them wrong. You don’t have to get physical to solve every problem you have with another human being

Yeah, except that almost every single time someone wants to start something about someone looking at them wrong, they weren't. It's just the asshole trying to act tough for no good reason.

That said, stereotypes wouldn't exist if there weren't people out there perpetuating them every single day. Everything Brisco says is true, and I feel the same way...I love my black brothers, it's niggers I can't stand.

There're my feelings right there. I have to deal with the "Ghetto black" crowd every day at my job ten times over. All they care about are their car stereos and their Sprint phones, even though most of them live in the trailer parks across the street. Is everything status or something to them?
I have to basically struggle to understand what they're saying half the time, too. They also seem to have something against referring to change over a penny as a plural, too. That annoys the hell out of me.

That's just because they don't suscribe to the belief in vowels, but really they're only trying to help make things more efficient. Ever see the Yakki Doodle episode of Harvey Birdman? Same thing.

Going from experience as a Pizza Delivery driver I am damn glad I'm working in the Red Neck area as opposed to the African American area(Interestingly the areas don't really have a lot of racial integration, some parts of town are entirely puerto-rican, all whites, etc). Cause with all the African-Americans in the AA area I wouldn't make a freaking dime.

They are some of the flat-out lousiest tippers around, and for some reason I always get sass by them.
"Yo This pizza ain't hot."
"What's yo problem?"
"What the fuck took you so long?"
"I don't want this shit."

And basically I get that and some other bullshit, not to mention most of the time they're dressed like extras from a 50 cent video. Granted it's not like I haven't run into my fair share of bad tippers from other races, but they are never outright rude to me at least.

Don't even get me started on rap music lately. All I can tell right now is that "The New South" style is a fucking joke, and there has yet to be even a single worthy talent out in what? The last two or three years? Granted it was bad enough with the Eminem-wannabes but now we have a thousand nonsense guys from "Tha Derty Sauth". Nelly is still making CDs as well, proof positive of the hole rap music is in. Guess I'll just have to wait for the next Eminem CD and maybe just maybe Dr. Dre will have something out within the next year(I mean he is doing something right? Goddamn).

EDIT: That list posted earlier is really good. I do enjoy some De La Soul and Tribe as well, along with Gangstarr, NaS, J5, and hell even B.I.G. before Puffy ran his name into the ground(bad pun). Granted all I hear nowadays are "party themes" and even then I still think they're shit compared to the stuff in the late 90s early 2ks. Whatever the case, 2004 has been a disappointment for music in general..at least for me

I remember the time I went to China Buffet and this fat black lady was screaming at the top of her lungs at the poor Chinese worker because she wanted them to bring out more lobster tails and she paid her goddamn $6.95 and they damn well better get her that shit now.

Well, dude, your store is right on the border to the ghetto. I'm suprised there hasn't been a drive-by on your store yet.

Seriously, Chaoo works at a Radio Shack in a nice shopping center, but if you walk right behind the stores it all turns into a total welfare neighborhood. I remember back when the entire shopping center was boarded up and looked like the South Bronx...then a Caldor opened, the it was transformed overnight into a decent place. Yeah, Caldor was their savior, weird, huh? Then Caldor closed, and it just seemed to suck all the life out of the place. It's not like it once was, but it's only a matter of time.

Get out, Chaoo. Get out while you still can.

Hehe, That sounds familiar.

I went to pick up some Chinese the other night and a big' ole black lady was yelling and complaining because there wasnt enough food in her take-out box. She wouldnt leave until they filled the styrofoam box to the point that it was overflowing with food and could not even be closed halfway. I felt sorry for the people that worked there. Took my full box of food - which was like half of the lady's ( and usually lasts me for a couple of days) and left politely.

I just dont understand the assinine attitude of some people. Whenever I go out to the store,restaurant,whatever I treat all of the workers and employees with respect because Ive worked in similar places before and still do.

I would love to go to this fat lady's place of work and just raise hell to see how she likes it....

Wow...great thread let me get started by introducing myself.

My name is...well call me genki. i grew up in the bronx i think this gangsta shit your talking about isn't about black people i grew up poor in a bad neighborhood i dont act like that. Not to toot my own horn or anything but if someone was to make me angry enough i would have no problem shooting them i've done it before and i'll do it again if i need to. but i know how hard it is to live somewhere like that i dont know why anyone would like to live there i've been through alot of shit in my life but i dont use that as an excuse i know i did alot of wrong stuff and i'm sorry for them and if i had the chance i would take them all back. the whole act black thing isn't about being black or white or whatever, its about being ignorant and disrespectful i know alot of killers that would kill someone a second but they have enough respect to know not to curse around children, respect their elders. me myself i'm low key, most of the people i know think i'm the nicest person they know. i'd rather make a friend than an enemy know what i'm saying? i dont know where these kids today get this stuff i wish parents would have more responsibility.

and not all rap is bad here you go this is the "good stuff":

Tupac
Kanye
NaS
B.I.G

damn too much stuff on mind now cant think straight gotta go calm down.

[Korly]

I hate black people in the movie theaters. They never shut up and they're always young black people. I don't fucking get it.

If that makes me racist, sobeit.

IAWWTP

Binary Star
Hieroglyphics
Mystic
Mos Def
Talib Kweli
The Roots
J Live
Little Brother
J Zone (funny as hell)
Common (Sense)

Just to name a few. If your are at all into hip hop you'll find something you like. I hate it when people take it as though hip hop is all garbage when they are only looking at the surface (mianstream, MTV & radio), but I guess that can be said about any genre in music.

Add the old APC and Gang Starr CDs to this list, and we have a winner.

Tupac

Incorrect.


And besides, aren't we talking "anti-thugg" right now? Isn't Tupac a big reason why these kids act the way they do?
