Oooooh......... A pit of fire! Let me jump right on in:
In 8th grade myself along with many white kids who weren't into rap and whatnot were picked on by black kids who were. There were those white kids who were into it as well, doing the same picking, but with ignorance on my side, I decided to be racist, to myself and a few friends of course. We hated 'em, wanted to see 'em dead, blah blah blah, all that retardo crap.
Having now actually lived life for 6 years on my own, wisened up, and not preaching the end of the world (just awaiting it
), I understand how ragna would post such a topic.
I live in Fayetteville, NC. Black people are a dime a dozen, it's a fact, what, living in the south and all. Most of what I observe is your typical thug gangster, pants below the ***, hanging around gas stations with peers. Then again, white preppy scum with their noses in the air and thumbs up their butts are a dime a dozen too....
I realized somewhere along the line that it wasn't black people that I hated, it was the, what I call, 'thug culture' that repulsed me. The arrogant, **** you all, thug & drug thing is adopted by all sorts of people, not just blacks. However, since all the popular spokes persons of said culture are black, and the majority of people living that lifestyle are black, it has in itself turned into self branding. I don't think anybody can deny that.
I'd like to dive deeper into the 'problem' of today's black youth, and society itself, but what I'd rather see is someone here labeling ragna as a racist actually experiance the things that he has, then try tip-toeing that fine racist line trying to talk about how much thug culture sucks.....
