He did? Thats nice . Oh, and shut the fuck up , you idiotic c#nt. By all means, put your veiwpoint across, on any given manner, but do so in a responsive, non-troll like fashion, ideally, using comprehensive phrases and sentences. Otherwise, shut the fuck up, you worthless , trollworthy f#kbag.
No, it isn't the right thing to do, IMO. When they are old enough to understand the concept of race, I will tell them to treat each person with respect and without bias, regardless of their race. I'm talking about African-Americans that I have met, worked with, and lived with. I am not saying that 40% of ALL AFRICAN-AMERICANS are pricks. I'm just saying that that is my personal experience. And you know what? Friends of mine who are not African-American have had similar experiences and have said that they consider a little under half of their experiences with African-Americans to have been extremely negative, i.e. were threatened, called names, even mugged. A very good Jewish friend of mine from New York City has had more negative experiences than positive ones with African-Americans, and he's about the nicest, non-confrontational guy you'll ever meet. Heartily agree. I subscribe this to popular culture, which is overwhelmingly influenced by the whole rap scene. Hey, I had long hair as a teenager and was into the whole hard rock scene, much to the dismay of my parents. So were my friends. What bothers me about the rap fixation is the whole whitey is evil, fuck the police, treat women as bitches and hos deal. Plus when I see those ridiculous baggy pants hung so low you can see most of their boxer shorts, I just want to laugh.... I don't have the personal experience to formulate that statistic.
LMFAO. So you think if RFK was just a lib investment banker who lived in Harlem he'd never have a problem with blacks? Hell, he was murdered two months after MLK so I don't think he possessed some super-duper magical aura. One of the victims in the story of this thread was an ex-con who was on a weekly foray into a ghetto in Lauderdale giving out money to the poor on the streets. Obviously that fellow had no pre-disposed prejudice. Did his attitude keep him from being murdered? I lived in a changing neighborhood for 30 years. I walked the streets and rode the "L" at all hours of the night. Perhaps twice a decade I'd have a serious confrontation. Why? Because I adopted a "don't fuck with me posture." Criminals would rather steal an 80yo woman's purse then tangle with a 200lb young white guy who glares them in the eye as they walk past. In the jungle the weak are prey.....
From another thread, but what the hell, I'll allow myself the luxury of spamming for the first time in my illustrious ET career:
Innocent people would be better off if Pabst went rather than Al Sharpton, causing riots and the deaths of innocent Jews.
You don't think it's the generic "Al Sharptons" - along with their white accomplices - that incited the LA riots? (Or fed the logic that justified them?) Well, I suppose you wouldn't think that. Then again, we've little evidence that you even think at all.
"Brother Sikhulu -- stand up, brother -- on 125th Street. I want to make it clear to the radio audience -- and do you hear -- that we will not stand by and allow them to move this brother, so that some white interloper can expand his business on 125th Street. And we're asking the Buy Black Committee to go down there, and I'm gonna go down there, and do what is necessary to let them know that we are not turnin? 125th Street back over to outsiders as it was done in the early part of this century." - Radio Station WWRL - Sharpton Rally - 9/9/95 Sharpton organized crowds of protestors, screaming about "bloodsucking Jews" and "Jew bastards" and threatening to "burn the building down." Finally, Roland James Smith, Jr., got Sharpton's message. On Friday, December 8, at 10:12 a.m., Smith walked into Freddy's Fashion Mart, pulled out a gun, ordered all the black customers to leave, spilled paint thinner on several bins of clothing and set them on fire, resulting in the deaths of eight people, including himself. Isn't it wonderful, how Al the racist Sharpton, can throw around words like "white interloper" and "bloodsucking Jews" in public, and the "elite" media conveniently misses it again! But I don't miss it. I see Sharpton for the kind of guy he really is: a low life liberal and racist who hates Jews. The Democrat party doesn't care what Al Sharpton says or does. They have so few blacks in high positions that they are willing to justify anything in the name of diversity. Just imagine: if Sharpton was thrown out of the party, he would probably call them "racist" and say they are discriminating against him, or that they are holding the black man down. But let me get something straight, if a conservative opens his mouth to speak the factual truth, he is called "racist," "fascist," or "homophobe," but if guys like Al Sharpton say things that would be objectionable coming from anyone else, they are called "activists." According to CNN.com, July 13,1998, in the article "Winner in Brawley suit says victory is bittersweet," Tawana Brawley, a 15-year-old black female, was found in a garbage bag with dog feces smeared on her body and racial epithets scrawled on her, after disappearing from her home on November 1987. With the help of Al Sharpton, she claimed a gang of white law enforcement officers had abducted and raped her. One of these accused men was former prosecutor Steven Pagones. Eventually, a grand jury pronounced her story a hoax, exonerating Pagones. The jury found Sharpton liable for $65,000 of the total damages for making seven defamatory statements about Pagones, many of which included Al Sharpton calling Pagones a "rapist." Sharpton never apologized for his remarks against Pagones. The case was obviously racially inflamed with the help of Al Sharpton, who demonstrated his unrepentant hatred toward whites. According to a Jewish Forward article "The Crown Heights Riot & It's Aftermath," January 1993, by Philip Gourevitch, a car driven by Yosef Lifsh, a Hasidic Jew, went out of control in Crown Heights. A black seven-year-old, Gavin Cato, was killed, and his seven-year-old cousin, Angela Cato, was badly injured. When the driver stepped out of his car to help the child he had hit, angry black bystanders beat and robbed him before police could reach the scene. As the ambulance arrived to help the Cato children under the car, medics decided that Lifsh should be placed in the first ambulance. Seeing this, the black crowds began to gather, crying "racism," and chanting "Jews, Jews, Jews." Later that day, the angry black mob came upon Yankel Rosenbaum, a twenty nine year old Orthodox Jew, shouting, "get the Jew" and "kill the Jew." Rosenbaum was stabbed and beaten. Later that day Rosenbaum died after receiving medical treatment at Kings County Hospital. True to form, Al Sharpton rushed to Crown Heights. He called for the arrest of Lifsh, and even pressured Brooklyn district attorney Charles Hynes into convening a Grand Jury, which found no cause for an indictment. Al Sharpton then spoke at Gavino Cato's funeral. A horrific three-day, four night attack on Jews in Crown Heights neighborhood followed. Angry black mobs attacked Jewish homes, and held up signs that read, "Hitler didn't do his job." Many Jews throughout the community lived in fear - fear that was perpetuated by Al Sharpton's finger pointing gestures against Jews, which he referred to as "diamond merchants." Why isn't the "elite" media exposing Al "anti-semitic" Sharpton for stereotyping Jews? Is it because he is a minority? Is it because he is bleeding heart liberal-Democrat? Why don't they persecute him like they would a conservative? The radical left, through their control of the media, is not printing both sides of the story. We live in liberal times, where liberals like Sharpton can say all the racist, anti-semitic comments they want, and the media will "accidentally" miss it; but if a conservative dare say anything that could even be construed as hateful, that will be front page headlines. Are Al Sharpton's comments about Jews just an accident? When he's walking with people carrying signs with extreme anti-semitic comments, is that just by chance? Sharpton has built his political career by attacking Jews and whites. In other words, he is the very racist that he claims others to be! According to the Jewish Post of New York, article titled "Burn the Jew Store Down," by Hy Drusin, The Jewish Post of New York, January 1996) The Reverend Al Sharpton organized a group of protestors in 1995, that began two months of protest outside Fredi's Fashion Mart, a Harlem business owned by Fred Harari , a Jewish man. At the time, Sharpton was the head of the National Action Network. The protest centered on the eviction of Sikhulu Shange, owner of the Record Shack, who was subletting from Mr.Harari. In months leading up the Harlem Massacre, Al Sharpton used black radio stations (WWRL and WLIB) to attack non-black Harlem storeowners: "Now, many of us are involved in various levels of struggle. One of the things that our Buy Black Campaign, and Brother Morris Powell and I are engaged in, is there is a systemic and methodical strategy to eliminate our people from doing business off 125th Street. It started with the vendors, now they're going to the actual merchants. One of our brothers who has for years been a backbone in our community, who has not only been an entrepreneur, but has also been a activist and involved in the struggle is now being threatened with not having his lease renewed."
