I don't know the situation though. I don't know what to believe either.
I blame rap music.

I concur.

Few...
90% of them act "gangsta dawg"
At least in my age group.
13-25
Then they get more mature. (At least most)
Now there are many african americans that I do, actually like. I just hate the "strait thuggin g's out der"
People like Al Sharpton make me laugh, ALOT.
He whines and complains about Racism... His mind is still in the 50's.
I hate those "fair treatment people"
They are usually the racist ones, themselves.

I treat blacks the same as I treat whites. I sit by a black Canadian in my French class. We are good friends and he helps me with French.

It's all about perception. Racism has never faltered. Just tabooed. Rights? They got the same as anyone else does. Affirmative Action itself is one of the rights entitled to minorities that isn't entitled to anyone else. It's a fucking joke. The workplace should never look to race as a part of qualification, only skill, and social skills where needed. As a White Minority, I've heard enough of the "Colors of the Rainbow" Speech held to near gospel status at school. It's not just Black Rights, as the topic suggests, but Human rights in general. What right do blacks don't have? From what I've seen in the surrounding neighborhoods, like Compton, Lynwood, Watts, Bell, and Huntington Park, it's the black people themselves that are holding themselves back. Of course there are the few that do break the mold, but the fact that Black people get their own set of rules, and play the race card when they lose is just Asinine.

I think that the Jews should be complaining, not the blacks...

No one should be complaining. It's called life, no matter what race, or religion. Some one out there hates who you are and what you stand for.

It might just be the little bubble of a world that I live in, but my Judaism has never become an issue.

That's a completely irrelevant point to the topic, and it seems like you're just trying to incite arguments. Let's drop it.

Can I see the survey you did to come up with that conclusion?

It could be how he sees the people around him, which is personal opinion. Of course he's not going to interview everyone in his age group.

It was based off observation. I doubt he went through and tallied everyone.

Uhhuh, so it's a made up statistic?

Anyways, I really don't like it when people call black people "African Americans". I'd like to see how many have actually taken one step in Africa.

Also, I doubt rap music makes influences anybody's life greatly.

The percentage, yeah.
It was used in a sarcastic manor, in that he knew it wasn't a solid number, as it was based off just observation.
I could say, based off observation, that out of the 5 black kids at my school, all of them act like they are gangsters with that same horrid attitude. It's not a solid survey, just merely an observation.

Yes, but his was based off of a large age pool of people he has probably never met.

Your talking a lot about statistics, yet you say something like this... Mb you should do a little statistic checking yourself, eh?

Ok, how about this? From my experience : talking with people, nobody turned "gangster" because they listened to rap music. It has mostly been their own choice to act like that.

My comment on rap music was completely sarcastic.
Kinda like blaming Marylin Manson for the Columbine shooting.
It may somewhat influence actions, but it's not the sole cause of it all... It's mainly just idiots.
