ESPN: "Floyd was given a pass because he's BLACK"

[Loocifer101]

whites are the ones that started racism (as we know it) in this country and are the ones that have maintained it up until this point (check foxnews for examples).

American whites are the one that created racist laws and expected ********** to abide by them (remember jim crow?).

I don't recall any african americans legislating racist laws forbidding whites to vote, read or forcing them to sit in the rear of public trains, buses, etc...

I don't recall any african americans hanging innocent white men from trees, lynching them, raping and destroying their family structures.

The last i checked blacks aren't importing drugs into affluent white neighborhoods. Conversely, how is the coke getting into the ******s of america? The racist law makers don't care about that though. What they care about is creating petty drug laws that are meant to lock up young black males and remove them from the streets. Whites don't have to deal with **** like that. Yet some of ya'll want to complain about mayweather's rant. Lol!

The last i checked the top 10 wealthiest humans in america are all white.

When i get on xbox live later on tonite, guess who's probably going to be calling me a n (racial slur) for no reason? Some racist ass white boy that's who. Why don't i have these issues with other races of people?

I'm 33 years old and have consistently dealt with or observed racism from whites to just about every other race.

Racism is still overtly practiced in major cities in the us (chicago, boston).

Did i mention the racism blacks have to put up with from the police department as well?

So to the few butt hurt, whiny, white guys in this thread complaining about blacks can get away with saying racist things, get over it!

That's one of the few things blacks are allowed to get away with in this country without being totally crucified or punished. The playing field between blacks and whites are still far from being even, so complaining about mayweather not being punished for his comments is ignorant.

There are bigger issues going on in this country regarding race than mayweather's comments regarding manny pac.

Howard stern, mancow muller, bill o'reilly, rush limbaugh, etc... Consistently talk bad about black people, make fun of black people and harshly judge black people, yet they're still making their money and for the most part have gone unpunished.

I bet i cant find one white guy that would like to change races with a black person. Not one! I wonder why? The answer is that most white people know exactly how racist and evil their own people can be towards black people.

bump!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think Mayweather got a pass, I didn't condone his comments and I'm sure a the majority of people didn't agree with his sentiments. I even created a thread to apologize and express my dismay. For my trouble I was insulted and called an "uncle tom" for trying to make nice with the pinoy's. Since when is it wrong to just be nice? So the only reason I can see people bringing this topic up over and over again is because they don't want it to die. While I think Mayweather's comments were out of line and betray some deep seated prejudiced beliefs, I don't think we need to keep ****ing our heads against the wall over it. To the people who think Floyd was given a pass by whom? Black people don't have the pull or power in this country to give anybody a "pass", even when warranted.

Black people get away with a lot of racist comments. Its the truth. No offense 2 ya but imo, its true. Floyd said all that stuff. Hopkins once said he would never lose 2 a white person. Had it been the other way around, Calzaghe would have been looked at like the ultimate racist. In Baseball, Torrii Hunter was asked about the high # of latinos in baseball and he went 2 call the dark skinned latino's "imposters" used by the MLB because they want 2 pass them off as black players. 100% garbage. Does he 4get in latin countries, they live for baseball? And right about now the avg black kid doesn't give 2 shyts about baseball? And don't say its because there isn't any black players cuz there are. Black star players at that are winning MVP's. Jimmy Rollins, Ryan Howard, Torri Hunter himself, Prince Fielder, Brandon Philips, CC Sabathia, rookie star Justin Hayward, the Upton brothers. Blacks aren't dominating the sport but they are making an impact. Compared 2 the ammount of white AMERICANS in basketball they are having 5x a bigger impact. Who's the best white AMERICAN player? Mike Miller? Lol. Kirk heinrich? Kevin Love? C'mon and that doesn't stop white AMERICAN kids from watching, so why has black kids stopped watching baseball????

Just check out the poll. 90+ yes, 30+ no. Rather 1 sided won't you agree??? And they can't all be "Floyd haters" or Pac-Tards, Farts w.e. ya call them.

Why can't they be? Based on my experience here, there's no shortage of of Mayweather haters and Pacquiao fanatics.

The author of the article will be a giving a pass for writing this article...because he is black. If a white person wrote this, there would be public outcry.

Works both ways, buddy.
