Some of you people watch far to much BET and believe way to many stereotypes. A majority of the black community never use it.
I'm going to partly agree with this theory. haa
I mean the older generation blacks completely loath the word and don't recommend us degraded ourselves like we continously do, but the younger generation blacks could care less and use the word amongst eachother.
I've been reading many of the post regarding this topic and one thing struck a cord in me. I think two of the posters said that
"blacks choose to be segregated".
That comment is competely unnecessary to say. First off, we're not the ones who started the segregation. Whites did.
Whites made the mess, and it's time they clean it up. Stop trying to deny and make yourselves out to be something holy. It goes RIGHT BACK to the mind-set of early Europeans.

Unless you'd care to cite examples of businesses or schools that refuse to cater to blacks or bus drivers that insist on blacks sitting in the back, I think it's fair to say that the civil rights movement of the 60s cleaned up most of that sort of forced segregation. That's really not what the other posters are talking about.
I think what they're referring to is the voluntary segregation from the rest of society that the black community has embraced in the last 25 years or so. There's been an entire subculture created since the civil rights movement that seems designed along racial lines to be "black only." You can see it reflected in many of the posters here who believe that the n-word takes on a different meaning when a black uses it casuallya meaning that it can't possibly have if a white utters it. You can also see it in the blacks who won't date or associate with whites. Theb68y don't think their opinion is racist in the slightest, but of course they see Chapman's opinion that his son shouldn't date blacks as being racist in the extreme.
It's basically the same institutionalized racism and double standards that the civil rights movement sought to end. -

You have made the white your enemy so why the hell sho5b4uld we defend you against a rude comment made by someone else?
Ust another example of an overbearing jackass who goes out of their way to piss everyone off and then you wonder why no one likes you enough to defend you. -

I
was
referring to present segregation.
Did you hear about thb68e swimming pool in the south that just recently allowed integration? Just because discrimination isn't displayed in the media doesn't mean it doesn't happen.
It happens every day.
Whether or not it's against blacks, whites, American Indians, Hispanics or Asians.

Think of present segregation as a domino effect. The Civil Rights Movement of the 60s stoped all forced segregation, but what makes you think this movement would squash bad blood between blacks and whites? Majority of Southern blacks of the time had always been with blacks. Why would they all-of-the-sudden want to become close friends with the people who they were always segregated from? The reason for the movement was not only to end segregation from whites, but to have better opportunities that the whites were provided. "Seperate but equal" wasn't a true statement. Even when the movement ended, moving into an all white neighborhood was incredibly risky.

The posters who believe n!gga is different are completely insane. n!gga, n!ggah, Nicca, Ninja. It all means N-gger. It's funny how ignorant black people can be sometimes. You would think after all our hardship we would be a hell of a lot smarter then we are. It goes back to the mindset that whites put on our ancestors, "We amount to nothing." Calling eachother beep is just a slap in the face to our ancestors.
You have made the white your enemy so why the hell should we defend you against a rude comment made by someone else?
No one makes someone thier enemy without reason. Maybe you should think before you type.

I stand by my statement in which you went out of your way to quote. I was talking to Independent butt hole and he has slewed much slander against all people in the white race and those of us who are white and not awful as he says do not like him because of said statements. So I do not need to think before I type. He has given me enough reason to be an enemy and more than enough reason to not want to defend him against another persons rudeness. He is only getting back his medicine he so freely prescribes.

You don't know what Independent has gone through in his life. What I'm saying is he has a reason for not trusting whites. I could understand.

People go through things with other people in their lifetimes. You are to base people individually. If some white bastard messed up his uncle that is only one particular group or person. To classify one race as a whole group of racist bastards is wrong. Not all of us are like that.
Trust issues I understand, not ALL the hate issues. You should give anybody and everybody their fair chance with you and then make your judgments accordingly based on their individual actions. Not based on color, Great Grandpa and so on.
