Some of things that are important in white society are not so important in black society. Same goes vice versa. Who's right? you are, i am, they are, everyone is. Only you can decide how to live your life and what is important to you. As soon as someone starts telling you how you must think... that's when its time to pack up your shizz and hit the road.

On a side note, and perhaps something that helps us to understand where black society comes from.... have a look at the movie "the butler"

Great movie, and does a reasonably good job of explaining a black persons life. I didn't particulary care for the way the movie became political at the very end.. but the rest of it was good film.

Hi ace. Pull your pants up past your knees, that's prison lingo and only your fellow ex-cons have any interest in obliging you in public. Turn your hat around so the bill is facing forward as it was designed to do to keep the sun out of your eyes. Turn the blaring noise down which sure as hell has no resemblance to music. I'm not telling them how to live their lives, common sense and respect for yourself showing some intelligence instead of fashion and ego? My shizz ain't going anywhere. Sorry if I misunderstood your intent in the post. I have no intentions to watch "the butler" as I don't want to hear all the excuses they cry about. I'm just guessing......"the butler" could have been another Allen West or any of millions of other black people that have made a great life for themselves in our today's America without all the moaning and crying. But that's just me.

so just to clarify what your saying, there are no black people who are worth anything? They are all worthless money grubbing ex cons who wear their hats backwards, keep there pants around there knees, and play gangster rap to loudly?

Please read my statement again, and this time actually read it.... I am not making apologies for people of any color who choose to live like hoodlums. I am simply stating that there have been, are now, and will continue to be some damn fine folks who happen to have colored skin.

If in point of fact you are saying that any person of color is worthless, then i would suggest you go take a long walk off a short cliff.

If however your suggesting that a thug can be a thug regardless of their skin color... carry on.

By the way "the butler" is not a movie about someone finding an excuse to act a fool. It happens to be a movie about a man who played the best game he could, regardless of life dealing him a very ****ty hand.

That's a lesson we can all take to heart. Regardless of the color of our skin.
