Its a damn shame when kids can't go to the movies

[sinwagon]

Oh and just so you know I don't just target black youth, I made a post about a disrespecting WHITE GIRL who was dating one of my sons and I threw her lily white A$$ out of my house a few weeks ago for disrespect and called her mother. If I had known these kids, I would have called their mother too.

So just as I have posted about these BLACK KIDS I have posted about WHITE KIDS and their actions too. Does that make you happy?

Vari is right, you stated you walk away and do nothing. Well isn't that what leaves crime in the neighborhoods?


Isn't that EXACTLY what your kids did? They WALKED away and avoided a problem. Are they also now responsible for crime in the neighborhoods. Your kids have got more common sense than you. Seriously, you and all the other who think I'm "part of the problem" because I won't put myself on harms way - take your own advice next time and jump right in with those thugs and help keep the neighborhoods safe. Tell me how that went - from your hospital bed.



And nobody understands your points because your retarded. There you go, now I am picking on retards ok?

That's it? That's the best you've got? Retarded? Yawn. Are you really an adult?

HAHAHA! Are you really a teacher?

Oh and where did I say "Jump right in" I said that I would have called the police and had them prosecuted for a hate crime....the same way they would have done with us. You really have no clue and really have trouble comprehending the posts don't you?

The whole point was that I was proud of my kids for walking away and that its a shame when nobody will do anything about ignorant animals who act like this. That was the point!

Yes, my kids did walk away, they demanded their money back. But they are just that KIDS, one is almost 20 but in my eyes he is still a kid and thankfully they were raised with more tact than these little punks. But YOU as an adult, should want to do more to stop it from happening to someone else. I don't expect KIDS to carry that burden. It was a pack of ignorant adults that caused the problem in the first place because it is my guess, this is not the first time these jerks have acted this way and if somebody had put them in their placed then, they probably would not be acting like that now.

Isn't that EXACTLY what your kids did? They WALKED away and avoided a bad situation. Are they now also responsible for crime in the neighborhoods? My God, your kids have more common sense than you and the others on here who advocate taking on criminals. Tell you what, the next time you are confronted with a dangerous person/s, go for it, make the world safer. Then tell me all about it - from your hospital bed.

The real problem here, sinwagon, is you don't like people to disagree with you. You feel threatened, which is why you called me retarded. You want to post on an adult site, well act like an adult, and don't resort name calling. You don't like what I wrote? Fine, I can handle it; I'm an adult. I won't call you names. BUT I don't like what you wrote. Deal with it. That's what happens on a public site.


And please tell me where and when I took up for anybody. I called those kids thugs and racists. I was in agreement that should have been kicked out of the theater.

I could care less if you agree with me. There are plenty on this thread who did not agree with me. I could care less. Stop trying to act like you are so important. You are not important to me.

As for the name calling, you were wondering why nobody understood what you were saying, plain and simple it wasn't making sense. You kept picking 20 different things to gripe about.

As far as "Deal with it" you "Deal with it" you were the one crying that I should not have posted it on here but kept responding to a post you didn't think should have been posted in the first place. A little hypocritical huh????

Yeah....uh on to bigger and better things. I could care less if people agree with me. It does not bother me and quite frankly I enjoy seeing others views because it allows me a little bit of insight on some topics and it allows me to see things differently on occasion. Disagree away! I do not care....there you go ASSuming again.

HAHAHA! Are you really a teacher?

You got me. I'm really an astronaut/brain surgeon/famous actress/lawyer/business tycoon.

Beause lying about being a teacher has brought me more fame and fortune than I wanted.

Did you see that movie in the theater or on DVD?

I had a conversation on this very subject with my 15 yo daughter and was enlightened that she had two negative experiences that both ruined the movie experience as well as involved Blacks. She expressed a sort of guilt in that she admitted that she was beginning to profile and runs against the grain since over her life she has had many Black’s as friends. When I questioned her further for details on these particular disruptions what stood out was they were hostel in nature and that the kids acted in a manner that taught or dared anyone to say something I suppose because they themselves knew they where acting inappropriately. Essentially these kids are slowly teaching my kid to be a racist (in some people’s eyes) particularly certain circumstances. Tiz sad

From a few of your posts, sinwagon:

I was not "wondering" about why "nobody" understood me. I am sure plenty of people understand my posts, even if you didn't - and still can't.

I also am not trying to act "important". You brought that up. It is your own insecurity that causes you to interpet my words that way. I am only expressing a point of view on a web topic - the same as you.

You "enjoy seeing others views" so much that you called me "retarded", an "ASS", and a "hypocrite" after reading mine. Okay ....

My favorite, though, is how you justified your own kid walking away after criticizing me for wanting to do the same. You said he's just a "kid". I read your description of him in the OP. He's bigger and stronger than this small, middle-aged woman - the perfect candidate to save the neighborhood. But you and Vrail...(sorry I fogot your name) wouild prefer that I handle it - or consider myself "part of the problem". Makes perfect sense.

If you keep posting "20 different things", I'll keep responding to them. It's just too damn easy - and too much fun!

Yeah, you know what....you are exactly right about me! Thank you for that, I appreciate it!

As a friend who private messaged me, and as my momma taught me, you can't argue with a fool (or someone trolling the boards) so I won't. Thanks mom, that really came in handy!

I don't understand your question.

It is sad, because we all raise our kids to be fair, decent people and then when they are targeted and the culprits always fit the same profile, it can start to make you feel differently towards every person of that race, religion, sexual orientation whatever.

I don't want my kids to ever feel that way. My 20 year old has alot of friends as I said, many are black and they don't agree with it either and considering they were raised properly, they were just as out raged as he was.

My 16 year old does not know many people here yet. He just moved here in February (he is actually my stepson) but he came from West Virginia where there were not many black people and I don't want him to get the wrong impression from a sorted few he has come in contact with and start to form an opinion based on those people. Thankfully as I mentioned we are very close with a black muslim family and my kids refer to them as "aunt" & "Uncle" and hopefully he can draw opinions of black people from them and not a few knuckleheads that thought they would put on a show at the movies.

Wheeee!!!! In addition to being retarded, an ass, and a hypocrite, I'm now a fool. How do I respond to such cleverness? I am so unprepared for your wit. I never saw it coming. Hats off to you, sinwagon, I truly have been bested! You .... are .... awesome. I mean, damn, why didn't I think of calling other posters names like I used to do in elementary school. Silly of me, really, to think that was something I left behind with childhood. Please, please teach me the fine art of name- calling. Do I only do it when I can't think of anything intelligent to say?

 

[Sharon]

I don't understand your question.

That's ok I can't explain it because now because I forgot the name of the movie.

 

[Sharon]

For you

It's on the house.

I just cannot believe Vrai is not doling out infractions and banning anyone for all the naughty words..could it be...just maybe...playing favorites? Or just not on the rag?

I don't think that will happen. If you raise your kids with the idea that a few bad apples don't represent the whole barrel (and it sounds like you have done just that) than she will remember your teaching and not give into stereotyping whole groups for the behavior of a few of its uglier members.

No one can teach us anything we are not willing to learn in the first place. No one can make us be something we don't want to be.

Well, good, because I can be called "retarded" for free elsewhere, you know. I didn't know you all charged.

 

[GreenHornet]

Uh-huh... and what's 10 White kids - a church group?

I've taught in schools that were both predominantly white (Southern Maryland) or predominantly black. (in Annapolis)
Guess what? Neither group was a picnic. The sense of entitlement
shown by the white students (yes, I'm white) was breathtaking - and sickening. Even worse was the attitude of parents who backed their kids to the hilt. Could their child do something wrong? Nah, it's always someone else's fault. Could their child be deserving of a poor grade? Nah, that teacher doesn't know how to teach my child.

The OP's boys did the right thing. They left instead of making a bad situation worse. I do not blame them one bit for feeling threatened. I do question why an adult would feel it necessary to post this on a public forum and make it an issue of race. (READ CAREFULLY: I AM NOT CALLING HER A RACIST) Kids of all races can be jerks. Believe me, I know. Everytime I've been to a movie that was disrupted by teenagers, they turned out to be white kids who didn't seem to understand the difference between watching a movie at home and in a public place with other people. Am I blaming all white kids? No. Am I blaming only white kids? No.

I know in which direction opinion is blowing on this thread so ...flame suit now on.

I won't be flaming you but I will say that 10 white kids is simply ten white kids going to the movies unless they start wearing baggy pants hanging half way down their ass, speaking in ebonics and threatening to beat up irritated movie goers for telling them to be quiet during the movie. If this were the case I would just call them ten "wiggers" trying to be cool. You could also call them a gang though but only if they had the "complete" costume donned. By "complete" I mean they must have the matching doo rags on their heads as well as "bling" around their necks accompanied by a few rings and wrist bracelets.

fact is that most black kids in groups will be treated and viewed this way because that is the image they project to those of us around them. If they don't like it than they should change their clothes and act accordingly. Another fact is that black kids are more likely to dress/act in this manner than white kids... Why? Because it's cool to be a gangster! (and of course they need to fit in due to peer pressure and other cultural biases that you're too white to understand).

It's okay I can say all of this because..... You guessed it I'M BLACK as the night! I worry about the future of my race when I hear so many of these stories. Peace out.
