"what kinda fat bitch looks like you?" -- quoteworthy
Eddie scooped by the DrudgeReport. :(
I feel dirty just chewing gum there, like it would pick up the toxins the way it does in lab. However, since there are dirty fucking people, I'm thinking there's a niche for subway hotdog stands.
Rat w/ mustard, anyone?
Hmm
I think you're right.

I dont get it when I was 20 interning I use to crush slices of pizza late night on the way home and not think twice about it-- guess its a black thing haha oh well. But seriously if you ever worked in a casual dining restaurant you have most likely served dirty (less than clean) food to the four top sitting in the booth.
I put back some Mickey Ds on the subway every once in a while. The disgusted looks people give me are priceless.
I'm eating a radioactive, fake meat, fattening, delicious McFatty burger. Do you think I care about health at this moment? Keep staring, you're jealous
So that's why I get all those funny looks on the PATH train when I'm sipping my 24-oz PBR. ;-)
"SHE GROWN. WHY CAN'T SHE JUST HANDLE HERSELF." Honestly, hoodrats. shudder
Savages. Always looking to beat someone up, can't just have a fair fight the friend always has to jump in.... and black women wonder why black men act the way they do....
Wow, "blackfinancier", for someone who is so eager to advertise his race not only in his name, but in 3/4 threads, I find it interesting that you of all people would be the first to generalize this as the behavior of black women. I think that's worth some monkey sh*t, but I'm not familiar with the site to not too sure how to do that.
Generalize, or talk about first hand experience......
Unfortunately this one doesn't culminate in a fight, just a guy going crazy, lol...

You have no idea unless you black its absolutely ridiculous, the things black women say

Since I don't know what that is, I am likely not one...but could be...again, I don't know what it is, lol.

It's worse being mixed. You get shit on by everyone. Black women ... ugh. It's so sad because there's so much that could've gone right but didn't, and instead it's a bunch of lazy people far too eager to get into a fight in public, shake their overweight ass in a club, scream if someone (white) dares insult them, yet completely happy to dance to music with lyrics like "Biiiitch, biiitch, shake that monkey."
hahahaha.
I'm not condoning any of this, but there's trash on both sides of the spectrum. Have you seen "Jersey Shore"? Get over it.
Lol first off, no I am not keeping myself down txjustin. I'm doing just fine.
Honestly, do you think calling a group of people Savages is really going to do them any good? If someone really wants to improve the state of the Black race, volunteer with children, women, etc. - understand the plight of the people and develop an approach to help change their circumstances rather than insulting them. Insults never go far in creating change.
Nowhere on here did I condone the behavior of these girls. I don't surround myself with people who like to fight and argue in public - no matter what race they are. I'm a peaceful woman =)
Let's look at this video:
Or this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZkMs8SmCQfE&feature=related This one maybe?
Or maybe the thousands of similar videos of caucasian girls fighting. But somehow I know no one will start saying "White Race Needs" or "White women, [ insert sterotype here]". I don't think seeing a video like this should prompt anyone to make such sweeping comments, which blackfinancier made, and with which I take issue.
As far as racism, "What the Black Race" needs is to be free from steryotypes. "What the Black Race" needs is the opportunity to work to prove themselves without the notion that they are somehow priviledged for being Blalck or another minority. A Black person who is in any position of power is often looked at as being there only because they are Black or a URM. Behind this thinking is the inherent feeling that, without affirmative action, Black people would be nowhere. Its evident on this board in a lot of different forum topics. Oh you got into Harvard? Congrats! I'm sure 98% of the reasoning behind that is that you're black. You're in banking or consulting? Oh...it's because you are Black. Man, I wish I was black so I could get that edge- you know, so I could be unqualified but succeed! I'm not saying affirmative action does not help minorities (and White Women - the main beneficiaries), because that would be a ridiculous statement. I know I'm going to catch a lot of heat for this, but oh well. Affirmative action is there to help those who have historically been underpriviledged. Although it would be a lot better to do so with socioeconomic status, race is often times tied to socioecomic status. And, contrary to popular belief, not every black person is there because of affirmative action.
Trust me, racism exists. Its not the same kind of racism that causes people to lynch Black men or harm Black children. Most of America has moved WAY beyond that, thankfully. The racism that exists today is the less overt kind - the kind where Black people are looked at and thought of as less than equals in ability or in mentality. The kind where someone can even look at a video like this and believe its appropriate to talk about "Black womanhood".
I'll address these points one at time, #1 Justin is being annoying passive racism exists, I have been blatantly followed in stores and what not.
Do I think that calling a group of people savages is doing them any good? Of course not, I think its actually pretty shitty of me but people who act the way that the women in ALL of the videos that have been posted on this thread are savages. White, Black and Asian doesn't matter the color. Improvement starts by stating that we have a problem; we as a black community have a problem if you don't believe that you live under a rock. I posted a link to an article in Psychology Today to how everyone holds there own prejudices, in that article it states that many of there responders tribute positive things to white people and negative things to black people subconsciously...do we ever think why that is? Like I said prior and I will say again sweeping generalizations aren't good aren't positive but there are some truth to stereotypes or they wouldn't be there in the first place.
Affirmative Action without it....only God knows what Wall Street will look like... Think about it like this the debate of whether prep preschool-->Prep high school----> HYP----> Wall Street v Non- Target---> Wall Street will always remain... which person is smarter... But if you think about it those who prepare at a young age are already at an advantage versus everyone else. Now what are the %'s of black people v white people who have adequate knowledge of a young age of a career in Wall Street and how lucrative it could be with adequate preparation and discipline? Its the whole not knowing factor there are many people who are smart enough driven enough ambitious enough to succeed on Wall Street but they don't know about it or there talents have gone to waste because they were pushed by there parents to succeed. Race and socioeconomic status are mutually exclusive. You're right not every black person is there because of affirmative action but you're missing the point, affirmative action doesn't mean you are stupid so they hand you the job because you're black its more two qualified people one is black one is white, black one gets the job because of Affirmative Action... the white person doesn't thats why people are up in arms about it.
I never said affirmative action means you are stupid. I argued quite the opposite. If you don't believe that socioeconomic status is often times tied to race, look at page six of this US cencus report (pg. 14 of the PDF). Take a look at median income levels by race. http://www.census.gov/prod/2010pubs/p60-238.pdf
Preach it sister.
There are so many things that I want to say here I just...can't
When you are hungry, and the people you see with money around you are the gang bangers, its hard for a young person to see the exit from that lifestyle. Why worry about the future when hunger can kill you today? I have witnessed many of the traps that lead people to fall into the cycle of poverty. No, people do not want to be poor. Even in ghettos, people strive for the optoins that they view as attainable that will get them the most money, even if its a high risk option.
It is hard for middle class America, and more especially, those born into the upper class, to understand that many of the people in poor neighborhoods were never exposed to the path of Wall Street or becoming a doctor or lawyer. That's like me saying to you, "Why didn't you go make millions in oil in Texas?" It wouldn't be a fair question because you do not know the way to get there, nor do you have the network to steer you in the right direction.
That being said, I'm a major proponent of personal responsibility. I don't believe everyone deserves to succeed, regardless of race or socioeconomic standing. What I do believe is that everyone deserves an equal opportunity to work towards that success. Don't condem the child living in the Bronx dodging bullets for not going on to be the next software genius when he has never seen a tangible way to reach this. In the case of people like your brother who have had the opportunity to make something of themselves and instead choose not to, that's another matter. The difference between those that make it out and those that do not is that those that do often have someone - a caring teacher (difficult to come by in the inner city), a friend, a cousin, anyone - who exposes them to other paths than what they see on a daily basis. If someone is given the opportunity and the guidance necessary to succeed, and they do not take it, that is a reflection of his or her personal character. I feel no sorrow whatsoever. However, I don't believe those that never get that same chance should be looked down upon or assumed to be lazy.
This is one of my favorite poems. You may or may not find any merit in it, but I hope you at least read it with an open mind for the perspective of someone in poverty.

Enjoy some bananas on me
Question: how come broke ass Vietnamese boat people come over here and do better in one generation than African-Americans in the 10+ post-slavery? I mean, in the scheme of American racism, both groups get shit on pretty hard, but one is doing better economically than the other.
Racism explains much, but it can't explain everything. Being set back at the starting line explains much, but again, not everything.
Honest question.
I'll answer this after work, but what i will say not all black people are created the same the phrase "African American" is used so loosely that its just a PC word. Not all black people are African American.
Hey don't get all PC on us. The group you are referring to is plain black, or black American, not African Americans. In my opinion, African Americans do nearly as well as the Asians that are FOB because they know what a shitty situation really is...not the "suffering" that is the black community in America who still has access to an education, food, transportation, Jordans (lol) and many other things that would be deemed a luxury to the first generation Americans.
Case in point, I had a taxi drive a couple weeks ago that took me back to my buddies place out in the burbs (so a lengthy ride). When I went to get in his cab, he had an introductory to calculus book sitting on his seat that he quickly cleared off for me. I asked him about the book and if he was in school, etc. Come to find out that he is a first generation American, grew up in Nigeria and has been in the states for 9 years. He's going to school to become a nuclear engineer and he was driving to cab to earn money while going to class. Eventually the conversation spun into how lucky he is to be here where he has to opportunity to be something great. At this point I am curious as to whether or not he seriously wants to be an engineer or if he is an Al-Qaeda sleeper cell agent that is training to be able to destroy us from the inside out, lol. So I was asking probing questions and his response was simply he love America and this is the place where anyone can come and make their dreams come true because there are so many opportunities, etc. He ended up on the subject of blacks in America and basically said that he is ashamed because they have the chance to do anything they want and they are lazy and don't want to work...which was okay with him because he would take the jobs they didn't want until he graduated from school.
Again, we come back to the question, how can someone with little to no English language training come to America with basically no money in their pockets manage to find a job, earn a living and go to college but people who live in America already can't figure it out?? And I'm sick of hearing the bullshit argument that blacks don't know anything better because you can't honestly tell me that someone from Nigeria has a concrete idea of how lucrative a job on Wall Street would be, etc.
Regards
Funny that you bring up Nigerian's my parents are FOB Nigerian and basically this story, well is the same story my dad told me other than he was a dishwasher when he first moved here and not a taxi driver but other than that its all the same. Many of my dad's friends took the route of starting off as a taxi driver to earn more money, so they could better their lives. Like I mentioned before African American is a bullshit PC term created for all those people who feel hurt being called "black." So I personally think its ridiculous and a lame excuse for black Americans to say they know no better. Also today at work I asked some people I work with who are from the ghetto how to change the ghetto and they told me simply this " people act the way they do because they don't care." Now what does that tell you...
yeah this should clarify blackfinancier's point about differentiating between black americans and african immigrants. in GS my trini friend said that her dad would accept nothing less than a perfect SAT, becasue the test is a joke and anyone should be able to get a perfect score. now that is some tiger parenting right there.
in my mind, with obama's election, you have got to say that the country is not nearly as racist as it used to be. no more excuses. you can be any color and be president. how good is that? the oval office now has more diversity than some golf clubs in georgia, but fuck em, why would you want to join a club that disrespects you? be like the jews and start your own, swankier clubs in LA or NYC.
we should change the system of accounting for years. instead of 2008 AD, that should be the year 0 YBP (year of black president). So 2004 is the year 4 BBP (before black president) and now we are in the year 3.
YOu bring up a good point cphbravo! I recently took a gmat prep course and my class consisted of 2 Indians(who were both engineers), 3 Nigerians, 1 from Turkey(who went to Stanford UG and was an engineer), a South American, and 4 white Americans. I know this is a small sample size, but wanted to add that. Oh, all of these people are 1st generation Americans.
Way to hijack the thread. Anyways, this is the most awesome subway violence video of all time...

When did WSO become Stormfront?
wha???
even ANT, our resident conservative curmudgeon, is pro-fixing the schools in the inner cities even at extraordinary cost.
Only watched the video but I always tell people (dont mean to sound racist at all but there's truth to this) that there are blacks and then there are niggas. Tiger Woods is a black. Obama is a black. That MD that just gave you more work is a black. Kevin Garnett is a nigga. Rasheed Wallace is a nigga. Akon, 75% of Rikers, and the guys that cant seem to shut up in the movie theaters are niggas. They become what they're parents helped them become and their children will become just like them. Until one of them decides that they want to change and contribute to society, the cycle will continue into perpetuity.

Other than appearing like you have some kind of insight into "black culture", can you point out the reasoning behind this post? Thanks.
Could you also explain how the post isn't racist?
In his defense it isn't racist because that is pretty accurate.

Kid, you DID make several good points in your posts but, on principle alone, I doubt I'd respect you as a human being if we had this discussion in person. This has little to do with you not supporting black people, but more to do with the fact that you're this disdainful of your heritage. Not even Bill Cosby, whose statements I wholeheartedly agree with, was this quick to dissociate himself from black people.
First off if we had this discussion in person it would go COMPLETELY differently as I could point out visual references, and online you have to exaggerate the point a bit to make it in person there is no need because you have other ways of seeing the person making a point. Also umm Bill Cosby did dissociate himself with black people who aren't trying to make something better of his there lives. Bill Cosby has been distanced by major black party leaders ill provide links on the bottom of this, because of his comments about black people and black AMERICAN culture. I dissociate myself with black AMERICAN because that isn't who I'm... the fact you wouldn't respect me as a human being because I have an opinion is unbelievably simple minded. But to each his own.

Yeah man, there is something so wrong with not wanting to associate yourself with thugs, drug dealers, dead beat dads, unemployed welfare moochers and baby mamas who pop out kids like it's a reality tv show contest.
So many people want to look at this situation as though it is solely based on race...and it isn't. It is based more on socioeconomic status than anything. I don't make excuses for the white trash that lives in trailer parks who can't pay their child support but can afford booze and cigarettes. I don't associate myself with people like that regardless of whether or not they have the same skin tone as I do...and successful blacks shouldn't feel/be obligated to associate or identify with other blacks who don't want to help themselves. This isn't about brotherhood and struggling through an era where there aren't equal rights and opportunities. The play field has been severely leveled...even if it still isn't perfect...yet the black community seems to be getting worse. I don't recall if it was this post or another recently, but someone posted some statistics (if I reccall correctly) about the percentage of blacks that are employed and it's dwindled over the years...despite more help and more social programs and less (overt) racism. Why does NONE of that add up?

Can we actually go back to thorough analysis and due diligence of the sample materials posted by Eddie and cphbravo96?
I think a few topics desserve to be covered before the pitchbook can go to the printroom, e.g. :
-Why on earth is the girl on the 3rd video (raw at taco bell??) wearing f***** bikinis??? -Is there a relationship between the woman that gets assaulted and the dude who covers her at the end in Eddie's video?
-What's the Zangief kid's view about this?
