First off, the brother is far from ignorant. He made some very valid pts most of which was summed by the stmt chronicling the avg person in this country (white or otherwise) would be hard pressed to walk in the avg person of color's shoes. You can't reverse or rationalize slavery, the three-fifths clause, jim crow laws, rampant discrimination & segregation, the draggings, the hangings, the raping & pillaging, the inception of the kkk..hell, you can't even reverse or rationalize what's happening w/ the Jena 6 case where you have (at best) simple assault (with all parties involved..black & white) for first time offenders who at worst shouldve either been fined, rec. light probation, or in all rationale..the charges thrown out. All b/c some mofos couldnt sit under a ****in' tree. Im not an "angry black man". The facts speak for themselves..it is what it is. White folks were some dimented..cold bastards back in day. As for today, the racism & discrimination still exists but the format is much diff. Im personally not phased or interested in what the avg caucasion thinks of me cause he or she is in no better position than me. They dont effect my paper or my standard of living. Im more concerned w/ the powers that be (which just so happen to be white) who will **** on other whites, blacks, latinos, & whoever else in order to get what they want. Bush sent everybody (all races) over to the middle east (for his own personal crusade). It wasnt just one particular race being placed in harms way.
As for Bhop's comment, it may have been in poor taste. I personally wouldnt have given a damn if joe c. had responded by saying "I wont allow a black man to whoop me either". It wasnt like he said 'whitey', 'cracker', or 'pale face'. You not calling me out of term by referring to me as a "black", brown or whatever. Calling me ****** or coon might get you put in a hospital bed or a box, but other than that **** what anybody says. Everything is this country used to be firmly about black & white..now the black & white has taken a firm backseat to green. At the end of the day, both hopkins & calzaghe take home multi million dollar checks for an hour's worth of work (or less)..so who gives a **** about black man this or white boy that. Talk about the fight..not the politricks.
