I'll tell you what.....why don't you answer my damn questions instead of avoiding them? Maybe that will help rather than you yourself being ambiguous and trying to straddle the fence. Either you think that something is right or wrong or you don't. COLOR/RACE should have NOTHING to do with that decision. If you disagree, then speak up and say why. If not, then quit defending the actions of people who do that very thing. Every single person I've named specifically does that very thing.Quote:

Actually the irony is that you pointed out that neither Jesse nor Al are "leaders" according to you, yet you have failed to answer my question as to who is then.Quote:

You need to do a little research and quit getting sucked into the vortex full of lies your buddies are spitting out to any camera w/i a 10 mi radius. Al Sharpton "smart"??? Him and Jesse keeping the racial injustices from being forgotten??? Please, they have torn far more DOWN than any real Black leaders ever built. They are out for themselves, period. If you want to put them up on a pedestal on your mantle, be my guest. You certainly aren't alone, and that's exactly what's sad.
yea where were they when them Duke boys got the charges dropped
Sharpton and Jackson were the first on the scene, coalition and all
Im glad he's off the air tho, noone that fug should be on cable
How do you figure I am supporting them? I said before they were sucked into mainstream and greed, they did do good/great acts. NOW, they both are in it for who knows what reason. I was agreeing with 90% of what you were saying man!Quote:

In the last decade I question alot of their decisions, probably further back than that. Back in the King days up to the late 1980's, Jesse was doing great things. Now I do not feel strongly of their actions.
And SIX beat me to noticing the GENERALIZATION of people.......
Ummmm, see below?.... :thinking:Quote:

Your threshold for someone being "smart" must be wayyyy lower than mine then.Quote:
Al is smart, get over it.
Did yall want me to name each and every Black "entertainer" that had said something derrogatory about females, whites, blacks, hispanics, asians, cows, horses, buses?????? That would take all day, hence the generalization. It's obvious yall didn't get the real important part of what I was saying which was "don't complain if "do as I say, not as I do" comes back to bite you on the behind". So if that's all you two got was that I was generalizing, yall missed my point.Quote:

FUCK WHITEY :D
Stop chopping my post! I said he is smart and does not use it in the best manner...Quote:

Also, by me saying that they have done good acts does not mean I support them! Geez, don't twist the words.....
#1. I'll reply however I want.Quote:

Get it now? :rolleyes:
#3. So what if I said the rest of the Black entertainment industry, that's what I meant. I have NEVER seen a single producer, song writer, publicist, movie producer, actor (except Bill Cosby), rapper, singer, music store (except with the 2live Crew thing), comedian, or just about anyone associated with entertaining anyone come out and PUBLICLY and LOUDLY and PROFOUNDLY protest to music/movies/comedic shows/TV using derrogatory terms towards ANYONE. They can bad mouth whites, women, blacks, hispanics, gov't, retarded people, sex, penis size.....it doesn't matter. They have carte blanche to say and do whatever they want and noone ever complains.....UNTIL.....it is someone of a different color/race as they are. THEN the gloves come off and everyone is utterly offended and their pussys hurt because someone said what they HEAR and SEE everyday, just NOW they don't agree with it or find it funny only because of WHO said it.
That sir, is BS. Don't agree? Tough titties. That's MY opinion as I've observed it. I don't like people who talk out of both sides of their mouth. Pick a side and stay there. Don't be riding the fence and then choosing a side based on color. THAT is racist. There should not be a double standard. Name a time when a double standard is EVER good. Name it.
Dude, don't get your panties in a bunch. It's the internet. You should've said something instead of playing games. If you want to get my attention, speak up next time. :goodjob:Quote:

Regarding the "fence", I don't know what you're talking about. I meant everything I said in all of my responses. Obviously you either misread my posts or maybe you just don't understand English. :???:
I thought by saying that, any normal person would get the jest that I don't like Al or Jesse.Quote:

All of the Black entertainment idustry does not fall into the category you are laying them in. Many of them do "sing a different tune", sadly it does not play as much because it is not what America reacts to.
Stop Generalizing, please.
Oh, Hitler killed people......so not cool :no:
I don't play games. If my words were too hard for you to understand, go to www.dictionary.com and follow along next time. :rolleyes:Quote:

Again, neither you nor Airmax have bothered to answer any of my questions directly.....like how would YOU like it if someone came in and got YOU fired for something YOU said that made THEM angry?
I promise you don't want to try to go there with me.Quote:

I said you're riding the fence because in one post you say one thing and then in the very next post you contradict yourself and say something else. That's why I said to stop riding the fence.
One minute you say that it wasn't that big a deal, the next you say that it was racist. Pick a side. Racism IS a big deal.
Finally......there we have it.Quote:

This is the exact reason why there is and will always be a divide between every race here in America. I'm glad you finally admitted that you DO ride the fence.
If I'm exactly right as I put it, I'm just right. I'm not Spanish right. I'm not Brown right. I'm just right. Right? You even agreed with me on that, right? Right.
So then how come you suddenly have a case of IBS of the mouth and spout out what you just did. So let me get this straight; You will side with someone, even when you KNOW they are wrong, just because of the color of their skin or where they came from????? Again, go to www.dictionary.com, look up the definition of RACISM, read it, and see how it applies to you.
Wrong is wrong my friend. REGARDLESS, not BECAUSE, of color or race. So if you think that its right to side with someone based on the color of their skin, you are no better than Al nor Jesse or any other racist because that is EXACTLY what they do.
I used big words, but I gave you reference points to go find out what they mean. If you need additional sources of help, let me know. :rolleyes:Quote:
I hope this post is concise and to the point. I tried not to use any big words so it would cut down on the confusion. :goodjob:
And you may be absolutely right about that, as a matter of fact if you look above you (my reply to Six2Six) will see clearly why it is that certain things get the lime light and others don't.Quote:

Dead is dead. Riots incited by rants of racism have KILLED people just as dead as the Jews that Hitler gassed.Quote:
Oh, Hitler killed people......so not cool :no:
Again, I can't explain how the ANALOGY still escapes you. Hitler killed people due to his racism. All the race pimps encourage people that already have racist tendencies into having an excuse to do harm to other people, including killing them. Do you honestly think that any side (black, white, brown, or yellow) has not used the excuse given them by such instigators to commit murder???? Look up your history books. Look at what happened during the Civil Rights era in the South. Why did both Black and White people get killed? Racism. Why did Hitler kill Jews? Racism. Why did people die during racial riots of the 60's and even the 90's? Racism. ALL of which was what??? Further instigated by someone that played on existing thoughts.
Get it now?
Most of the folks who are putting al the pressure on him about getting fired and getting punished. Said that its kind of messed up that hes really being used as a example, because this has happened before and happens allt he time like u all say. But when he says some idiotic stuff trying to be funny it was just that time to really say enough is enough since most folks have been gettin a slap on the wrist and everyone forgets about it.
And abo the whole duke thing, that everyone keeps blaming jackson and sharpton. it was really the North carolina DA, that rushed the guilty talk. And tried hard to get those guys locked up. Because he was tryin to get the black vote in NC, and was using this case to stay in office.
True. I hadn't really looked at it from that angle. So you're basically saying that it has to start somewhere, right. If so, +1. :goodjob:Quote:

Damn it!!! Just as I was about to +1 you for the previous statement, you go and do this. :D
Yes, the DA is a tard and is probably gonna get disbarred for it. Good! Serves him right. He was trying to send some innocent guys to prison. But do you not remember Jesse Jackson coming in and immidietly promising to give that girl (that as it turns out was lying) a scholarship for her "ordeal"??? Al Sharpton also chimed in on that one too if I recall correctly. So they were in the fray too. That's the point, they can't keep their noses out of anything that has a Black person and a White person as the actors. It's like automatic. :screwy:
I'll have to find the video somewhere. I saw them on the news when they announced that they were dropping the charges. Unlike their 2 hours worth of coverage for the Imus thing, it was only like a 3 sec blurb as part of the Duke story.
I'm going to find it to post it.

BTW i always try to delete the media factor out of all the situatsion thats why i never mention anything about them. because there intentions are never good.
