[/qb][/QUOTE]That is the part where I part ways with his philosophy. I am from the south. The deep south. And it is a completely different ball game there. Completely different. So the generalization cannot be made on a global scale. Because in some areas it is just a step above the "Mississippi Burning" days. In those very areas there are some serious set backs based on skin, gender and national origin. Peep how I added other forms of segregation/discrimination. It is bigger than black or white. I can understand the impoverished soul and the struggle behind it as I grew up really really poor. And it is as easy to pass judgement as it is as easy to say it is very hard to see the forest because of the trees. But like Pac said "And they say its the white man I should fear, but its my own kind doing all the killing here". It is that truth where I understand this dudes (and Bill Cosby's) point. But you cannot say the inequalities do not exist. To say so is just ignorant. And anytime inequality exists, you can all but assume a uneven playing field. [/qb][/QUOTE]So here is were it differs, maybe you will get my point but not being white probably not, maybe that "chip" on your shoulder will blind you, who knows. If I was a poor white kid living in Oakland I wouldnt be able to have a corner to sling my rocks on as they would kill my cracker as in a heartbeat, but since I dont have a "chip-excuse" on my shoulder because my daddy told me to work and not blame anyone for my mistakes I came up with PLAN-B get the hell out of the ghetto, find a job and work. I hope you will see the correlation between Oakland and the South. You may of had a chip on your shoulder but Im sure you never used it as an excuse to quit-maybe try harder but not quit. Not every white guy back then had slaves and many white people lost their lives freeing slaves, but those facts are easily left out when teaching children how to carry "chips." [/qb][/QUOTE]I think you read my post(s) but failed to comprehend them. Please read them again, before you quote me and write such a ignorant statement. Or did you quote me on accident, in reply to the guy that challenged your threads? [/qb][/QUOTE]Like I said, you may miss my point, and it appears you did. None of the above happens to white folk as they are all born ahead of the game, I mean, dont I have a college fund just because Im white? Fuck NO! I get nothing except the idea of "work for it" from my father. Did you not comprehend the correlation between Oakland and the "South"?. Dont play dumb. If my reply was so stupid please explain why. Im gonna vote for Obama just cause Im hoping to be a Canadian resident soon but people must look at England and Africa as a backround source, it isnt the piece of land that makes a country its the people. The U.S. is going down and going down fast... People are bitter, jealous and hateful, we werent like this 20 years ago. Enjoy our downfall. P.S. Gun ownership is good! [/QB][/QUOTE]
