Being black..., ...Is no excuse for failing. Options

[Kontroll]

Listen, I'm not racist. I'm just bringing up a topic that I know is on alot of people's minds.

Everynow and then I see these movies, or whatever...people saying that black people can't get anywhere in life because they are lazy, or because they are black they can't get anywhere in life.

I was sitting infront of Jeremy's house waiting for him to answer his friggin door. I was thinking about Albany(Where I live for the most part) and how it's just run down. Most of the people that live there are black.

I was thinking about how I see all this crap about how black people always say they might as well as just give up and deal with what they got. In movies, or even in real life. It pisses me off because the color of your skin does not affect your brain at all. It's an excuse and not a reason...

...if it was a reason then every black person would be in poverty. Is this not true? And you can't blame it on your environment because there have been many black people who have over come it. So, why do some black people just give up and don't try to succeed?

I know not only black people do it, but I'm just bringing this one up first. I'll talk about white people some other time just to be fair.

Input please. If this is in the wrong forum, just move it. Thank you.

Okay, I had this post typed up..but I'm going to take a deep breath and try again later.

ooo...I guess we'll have to hold our breath too. I wonder what you'll post about. Well I'll give a little preview.

If you're not black, you're a rascist!!!"

Seriously, Black people have every reason to be proud of being black, and every reason to be ashamed. Its the same for all races. So stop trying to say anyone who talks negatively about people are rascists and ignorant, they're voicing their opinion based on the info available to them. True, there are lots of people who are for whatever reason unjustly biased against blacks or whites or spanish. But these ignorant dumbasses can't use computers(they're too stupid) so stop trying to make the people here feel guilty for your own misgivings about society.
