I keep waiting for this to hit the public. This is a huge deal IMO and one that this democrat cannot defend.

I think that for every white person you find that has a negative opinion of blacks, you can also find a black person who has a negative opinion of whites. It's a vicious cycle that hopefully, one day, will die out.

 

Agreed.

Nope. And sadly I am not surprised at all.

 

Just goes to show each side participates. One is just better at hiding it.

:lol:

 

And your last sentence is just as racist as associating blacks with welfare.:idunno::ohbrother:

 

Again, it's naive to believe that your beliefs account for all of white people's beliefs. That's like saying just because you wouldn't vote for Obama for political reason that some white people won't vote for him because he's black. There are thousands who wouldn't and CNN found some here in Ky brave enough to say it on camera.

 

I wasn't offended by Biden's comments either. They were laugh out loud funny and idiotic. Nobody defended Biden. I'm not offended by Romney's ad but after the birther joke and now the welfare ad I can definitely see the racial undertones and the people he is pandering to.

 

So being associated with hip hop music or the NBA, both of which are dominated by minorities, is the same as associating a race with poverty and taking handouts? I guarantee you not one NBA player would be offended if you said the NBA is dominated by African Americans. Thats just idiotic.

Yeah. No argument there.

That wasn't what you said. You said, "I associate black people with the NBA and hip hop but not food stamps."

 

Those are your words. If you meant it differently or worded it wrong then so be it but those are your words which imply that you think of Lebron James and Jay-Z when you think of black people.

 

And yes, they are all stereotypes so yes it is the same.

It's long been a stereotype that all blacks can do is sing and play basketball. His last post reinforces that stereotype that blacks desperately want to get away from. I guess he thinks all these baskeball players and rappers eat fried chicken and watermelon all of the time as well. He's pretty much saying when he thinks of black people he thinks of the NBA and hip hop. When you think of whites you think of swimming?

 

What? Where is this world you are living in? All black people can do is sing and play basketball? I have never heard that all black people can do is sing and play basketball. Once again, it can't believe you could call anyone else a racist.

Where did I call anyone a racist? I said your sentence was racist. Never called anyone a racist. I need more proof than a sentence.

You do realize there are more white people on food stamps than black people? You can't say the same thing about the NBA or hip hop music. That's the difference. Just like there are more white farmers and swimmers. I hope you see the difference.

:lol:

Did I take that the wrong way?

Did I take that the wrong way?

 

Yep. I even used the words 'your last sentence.'

 

You don't associate blacks with food stamps so where am I calling you racist? I said,"your last sentence is just as racist as associating blacks with welfare."

Yes. You do realize that there are more white people than black people in our population and that is likely the reason why. The latest number I saw said that 39% of white are on welfare and 37% of blacks are on welfare. While there may be more whites on welfare as a total number the percentages show that a larger proportion of the black population is on welfare compared to whites and that may be why some, a few, most, a couple of white people tend to believe that more blacks are on welfare. Because everywhere you go it looks that way.

Given the fact that there are more whites than blacks in the general population it's all the more reason to associate a minority with an industry they dominate. How is that offensive? I'm not calling them murders or rapist just basketball players and entertainers. So if I get your logic black people would be just as offended if I called good basketball players and singers as they would if I called them food stamp kings or queens. Correct?

Yep. I even used the words 'your last sentence.'

 

You don't associate blacks with food stamps so where am I calling you racist? I said,"your last sentence is just as racist as associating blacks with welfare."

 

Ok, good enough. Usually is someone says something preceived as racist they are branded a racist or a best as playing the race card. I think that's how this thread got started.

 

Just so I'm clear only my sentence was racist but I'm not?

Yep, we are pretty stupid.

 

When you associate with LRCW you suffer the ..... nevermind I can spell it.
