elaine said:I don't know what "us" you're supposed to be, but anyone can succeed now. Just some people get more handouts than others.
Vince said:Why aren't we focused on the issue of crime instead of which color is performing the criminal acts? High crime rate is the issue, and not if the criminal is black, white, yellow or green.
juggy4805 said:I have to raise the flag on that.
rdkarob said:Why because now you will not get any help? Will you succeed...oh and by they way.....
Myspace????? what a joke.
rdkarob said:This Thread has come to exactly what todays problem is with blacks and whites...focusing on the past instead of what can we do with the future...How bout we start all over and make things even and see who succeeds...I would love to see what that outcome would be.

It has nothing to do with section 8 and handouts. It is all about the menatality of the country. The mentality that blacks and whites have. It has nothing to do with handouts.
chernmax said:OK I'll start:
1- Get your a$$es in school
2- Get jobs
3- Loose all the PRO black gear, (we can ask you if we are unsure you're black)
4- Stop shooting and killing each other over stupid sh!t
5- If you live in provety, you have no need for 2,000 dollar rims or 300 dollar sneakers, buy books, a computer and start an educational trust fun.
6- Instead of selling drugs on corners, sell condoms...![]()
OK, that should be a good start.
Also, I am now a purple person so my opinion is because some suck at life better than others and need that chair kicked out from under them regardless, even if they dislike purple people...
elaine said:Why?
juggy4805 said:I retract that statement. I don't wanna have the mentality that someone can't make it. Belay my last.
rdkarob said:Great word...... I will use it
MENTALITY
SamSpade said:Because none of the crime is perpetrated by blacks at all. It's just a great big racist scam to keep the black man down. Cops just hassle black kids 'cause they can.
Sheesh. Ask a stupid question!

keekee said:Most of my early childhood was spent living on U.S. military bases, outside of the U.S. As a child, I had heard about racism, and was shocked and disgusted that there were actually people in the world who hated others for the color of their skin. I was raised that this was WRONG. But I was raised in communities where your neighbors were like family, whatever their color. (I miss that about the military). I was very sheltered from racism.
Then, I moved to the U.S.
I still believe that a person's skin color has NOTHING to do with their downfalls or their successes. Don't we all agree on that?
But... I'm sorry to say that I quickly learned to be cautious of black people. I learned this from black people, NOT from white people. I was treated like *%$& enough times that I became very aware of color. This problem is fueled from both sides. And I agree Juggy, it is EVERYONE'S problem, because we are all Americans.
The fighting and finger-pointing needs to stop from BOTH sides, and we need to look for solutions that work. I don't know what the solutions are, maybe that is the core of the problem... no one does.
