is black america so uptight that a joke by a shock jock sends the media into a racial frenzy. it seems so ridiculous that a simple joke can stir up such a controversy that has now turned a little known shock jock into a household name. it just seems like it's the black people that help to fuel the racial fire at times. i have many great black friends and have never been racist in any way whatsoever but have had to deal with alot of nonsense over the years with black people playing the race card. i think more black people than white are the true racists in america and everyone is too afraid to admit it. here is just one instance happened to my family in just this past few months:
my 10 y.o. daughter comes home from school crying and i say what's wrong she tells me she got in an argument with some black kids and she tells me the whole story. it started in the lunchroom where she buys her friend who is black an ice cream and they start debating what flavor is their best, mine liked vanilla her friend liked chocolate. so everything is fine... they laugh back and forth arguing which is best and then my kid says they should have never invented chocolate. this other girl all of the sudden flips out and turns it into a race thing now. she says what are you saying, black people shouldn't have been born. and now my kid is dumbfounded and perplexed like huh?? where the hell did you get that from? i didn't raise my kid to think like that and she would have never associated the two flavors of ice cream with a race, so she was at a disadvantage and stumped speechless. i also didn't raise her to be a crybaby wimp either i always told her not to start fights but if hit first to do her best to finish. so she was hit first and ended up victorious in the physical fight with the one girl which led to the entire black population in the school against my innocent daughter trying to lynch her because she is now a racist because she likes vanilla and not chocolate who bought the damn ice cream for her now former best friend who was black in the first place. also not one solitary white kid stood on my daughters side nor did the white principle or teachers see my point. the black kids were willing to defend chocolate but the whites didn't help vanilla at all. who is teaching the black children how to react like this is my question?
Oh dear dad
Can you see me now
I am myself
Like you somehow
I'll ride the wave
Where it takes me
I'll hold the pain
Release me

    damn, that sucks.

    i prefer a mix of chocolate and vanilla.

    i guess that means im okay with my kids dating black people.

    anyhow,... i think there is a tendency for white kids to be scared of black kids, especially at a younger age. i know i was a minority in middle school, im white, and i got fucked with a lot for being white. but that is a complex situation with a lot of variables that i don't fully understand. i hope it all works out for her.

    Stereotypes are the racists

    i've seen similar instances and i agree with you. i've been called a nigger lover enough that i shouldn't be labeled a racist but i've been convinced that it's the minorities that are the racists. my daughter got tired of it and found a way around it. no one working under her will ever play the race card again. she can spot the troublemakers and documents every mistake. play the race card with her and you're fired. her documentation has always stood up in court and she now has a great crew working under her. it's just a matter of weeding out the good people. no matter what their race is.

    True, so long as the can is not open. Then I wonder, if I bury the can of killer bees, will that end discrimination?

    How can it end discrimination when you are discriminating against killer bees? They have suffered enough pain at the hands of the honey bees.

    Now, spiders, those are some real filthy bastards.

    There can be no defense for spiders. Any questioning of that will only prove that you are a spider lover ;)

    take another look... Black people didn't send the media into a frenzy..

    Frenzy is what the media is...

    i get what you're saying. but she did try to reason with the girl unsuccessfully before the physical fight started. she kept saying i just don't like chocolate ok and then bang she was attacked and assaulted. she has her own temper and reacted. after school she still didn't understand what bothered the other girl so much about the flavors until i explained it to her at home. she and i both laughed about it at that point because of how stupid the whole thing was. and if the other girl wasn't taught to think racist thoughts she wouldn't have compared flavors of fucking ice cream to skin color.

    I prefer strawberry. Who knows what that means.
    Just that maybe I like pink and the ice cream flavor tastes yummy to me.


    And I've been hit for being white. I was born to white parents. Nothing to do with me. Hell there have been girls raped in Australia for being "skips"
    I've got no problem with anybody, but I'm sure there are people that would like to make out I do, just because of my skin color.
    But that's their bullshit. Not mine.

    This whole situation sounds very sad to me and I'm sorry this happened to your daughter ses.
    NOPE!!!
