If that be the case, then you tell it how you think it is from an extremely left wing point of view.

Dude, you're the one that only criticizes your own race. People of all races have faults, not just blacks. Criticize all of them, and stop giving other races a free pass.
Also, I'm far from extreme, LOL!! If I was so extreme, why would I point out that Bush went through the some of the same stuff that Obama is going through now with being compared to Hitler? See this post. http://www.tspnsports.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1547953&postcount=39

What do you think about the video and how Carl Brashear "REFUSED" to let race get in the way of his success? Did you hear what this great man said about his father? He said his dad told him to be the best, I say again............be the best. Did you hear Carl say he got his drive from his father who had a 3rd grade education(54 second mark)? Did you hear him talk about how the white sailors tried to make him quit by using death threats, but he "IGNORED" the white sailors and remembered what his father told him...........be the best(3:15 mark)? It's a dayum shame our community don't show documentaries like this to inspire our young black kids............a dayum shame.:shame: What's even more sad is 2 young white girls are doing this documentary on this great black man, when it should have been 2 young black kids.:lecture: We are so dayum far behind in our own history and heritage, I don't know what to say..................:noidea:

Nice diversion. And since you want to divert, what do you think about this video? Include me and many people that I know in that 60% of blacks that have experienced stuff like this.

And another thing. Look at the Hollywood support that Roman Polanski, the child rapist, is getting. I can guarantee you if that was a black man that did that to a 13 year old white girl, those same white folks that are supporting Polanski, would not be supporting the black man the way they are supporting Polanski. They'd wanna be the ones that strapped him down to the chair.
Michael Vick's sentence for dog fighting: 2 years
Plaxico Burris' sentence for gun charges: 2 years
Roman Polanski's sentence for child rape: less than 2 months.

..........that's why we're told to follow God's instructions because the judgment of men isn't fair. God doesn't judge by race, gender, and etc......it's cut and dry and applies to all mankind; therefore this dude should get whatever the bible says he should get. In fact, God even went so far to tell men that if we as human beings come across a judgment that's too hard of a decision to make in our life, then we are instructed to pray to God and ask Him to judge.
BTW, Hollywood is mostly liberal so I don't know what you're complaining about, but then again, most democrats don't stick together anyway and that's why Obama is having problems passing the health care bill with the majority of his party holding power.:shame: Having said that, what you're implying is that white democrats in Hollywood support their own race, but won't lift a finger for a black democrat. I wonder why?:noidea:

I'm still waiting on your response to the video about Carl Brashear and him "IGNORING" racism, and not using it as an excuse to reach the highest enlisted rank in the Navy. What do you think about this great black man and his mentality towards racism and discrimination? Would you advise your kids to take advice from this great man?

It's not that they don't care but many of them understand the consequences of thier actions. They are doing something about it-BEHIND THE SCENES.
Where do you think some of these laws come from? Amber Alert? They fight it in the government by campaigning for new laws. Watch Lifetime Movie Network-how many movies feature true stories that featured some white person being a victim and getting lawas passed to save others?
Kids in Plano died of drugs-they fought back with new laws. They went out and got those dealers. Safe & Drug Free Schools didn't come from us. Drug sniffing dogs in the schools didn't come from us-the Hispanics fought for that.
They fought with VOTES, MONEY & EDUCATION.
You think they would wait on rappers to speak out on a honor student getting killed like was saw this week? No they would be working behind the scenes to get new laws or something done to stop that from happening again.
That's what we need to do.
Then we need to band together and not protest but find someone running for office or in government to band with to get that changed.
We want to fight racism-we need to fight it right. Walking the streets or beating up white folks won't cut it.
Documentation is a powerful weapon. White folks FEAR it. Even if you fail-that paper trail follows whoever it is.
Look at what they are doing for a living RAPPING. Now let them try that outside of sports or rapping and you can forget it. You might get away with it if you are a writer.
A lot of those guys haven't left the game, they just glorify it and keep getting in trouble with the law in most case.
Remember there is a reason they are getting thrust down our kids throats instead of guys like Dwanye McDuffie, Hill Harper, Tim Ried or Chris Priest. You keep showcasing guys that get in trouble with the law to misguided kids. You know what you get?
Jails filled with black boys recieving LONGER sentences then their white counterparts for lesser crimes. Some are guilty and others are not (at times).
Black schools with high dropout rates and AEPS PACKED with us because out of control behavior is acceptable.
We are just playing into their game. Promote the negative of us, our kids buy into it and it's easier to control everything. Look at Bow Wow and Soulja Boy-who would hire them the way they look? Shawn Kemp and his 11 kids out of wedlock? A cough syrup abusing Weezy? Even if they had degrees?
We have to learn to play with the big boys. We have to know who we are fighting. Some as Royal Blue pointed out have figured it out.

You make great points!
Yes, they are rapping, but that is a good job to have if one has the God given talent.........it's not easy. God didn't put everyone on this earth to be and do the same thing, He gave everyone their own special blessing to show and tell for those who enjoy it. Having said that, Jay Z, Master P, Diddy, and others have business ventures that white folks not only took a chance, but invested heavily into their ideas. Correct me if I'm wrong, but they did get away with it outside of rapping. Did not 50 cents invest in vitamin water in which he sold for over a $100 million?
I think you missed my point, but I will explain myself better.......My point was that if uneducated criminals can start from the bottom and work their way to the top without racism being used as an excuse, why can't folks who aren't criminals or uneducated produce the same results or better without excuses? That was the only point I was making; I wasn't saying these guys should be role models for our youth.
I love the passion and fire in your post, bro. But what is it with you and Hill Harper, man? :lol:

Jackson Teenager fatally shot
Just the day before, Mary White saw 15-year-old Da Zagon Simmons riding a scooter near his home on Valley Street.
On Friday afternoon, he died. Da Zagon was shot in the head at his home around 3 p.m. and died at the scene.
"It's awful," said White, a neighbor. "Those kids were out there (Thursday), and I watched them playing."
A 16-year-old whose name was not released was shot in the hand and treated at the University of Mississippi Medical Center.
Jackson police have not released details about the shootings at 231 Valley St.
Hinds County Coroner Sharon Grisham-Stewart said a determination has not been made about whether it was intentional or an accident. http://www.clarionledger.com/article/20091003/NEWS/910030354/Teenager+fatally+shot

I don't hate Hill Harper. THe guy has 3 best sellign books and stars on a top rated show yet you never hear about him in the black community. Maybe he
should have stayed on Married With Children for more than 1 season.
Add another to youth being killed-
http://www.nydailynews.com/news/ny_crime/2009/10/03/2009-10-03_13yearold_killed_in_cambria_heights_shooting_2nd_teen_wounded_in_leg.html
True in some cases but white folks will link up to them because white kids are the ones buying that music. Also what are they promoting to our youth? They promote the most expensive stuff to our kids. Look at what they wear, drink, eat or drive.
You got kids dressed in 200 dollars worth of clothing and can't afford a meal, glasses or real stuff to live.
However I don't know how much money they are really making off of them because I've seen G-Unit, Rocawear & Sean John on clearance racks in BULK.
I'll see Southpole and Romeo clothing on folks before I see those other brands.
Folks tend to support that criminal so they can brag about helping a guy get back on thier feet. We see that with Vick, Pacman and others.
While the one that stays out of trouble and works hard gets ignored and struggles without support. Some make it and others don't.

What do you think about the message in the video below?
Master P vs C-Murder

Somebody call Lt. Uhara to translate that. I could barely understand him.
It sounded like he said screw his brother and his brother put himself in that situation. And that you can save everybody.
Because when all that happen with C Murder-where was P? On Tv with Romeo, getting Romeo in college, creating a tv network and so on.
Now think what would happen if P rushed down there and acted a fool? He would be in jail or dead. Where would Romeo be? How many doors woudl get shut in his face thanks to that?
P isn't doing anything that most folks are told to do. Get away from those that don't want to improve or do right. Like the three kids I know tha had fullpaid tickets to college but let the hood get to them and 1 is dead, 1 is locked up and the last one-graduated from DEVRY-after losing scholarships to schools in the Big 12, MWC, MEAC, SEC, Pac 10 & ACC for commiting a felony.
