  • No, but like we know him, my family does. It just pisses me off, because I'm a white person (Obama supporter) and I've grown up with black people all my life, but when this shit happens my mouth turns into David Duke and I don't know whether I should be okay with that or not.

    Is it wrong to find it funny that someone named Malcolm X was just robbed by a black guy?

    welcome to planet earth, how long have you been sleeping?
  • if a white guy broke into your place would you make that distinction as well?
  • Race thing aside, I'm sorry to hear that. Maybe it was for drugs.

    Ahh no, white trash red neck I'd find somethin'. Its just in general, My neighborhood used to be a nice place to live, now its over run with shit birds. It just pisses me off because I do my best to help the poor and the have nots, but they never do (most of them) do shit for themselves.

    Not sure, there may be a waiting period.

    This is something that always bothers me. No offence to the OP, I'm sorry for your ordeal and this really sucks but I don't see why race even enters into it.

    :rolleyes: Well maybe. I just didn't want to lecture the poor guy since he's just been robbed. :rolleyes:
  • Ah I picked this name because I think we both have very similar views of society. Yet I still do drink, and eat pork and drop F-bombs, and I'm a Catholic.

    I guess if he were here, he'd say "Ah don't worry, he was just an Uncle Tom".

    I can't speak for anyone else here, but my concern was when he stated that he turns into David Duke when something like this happens. Usually, those words and thoughts don't just materialize under pressure.

    I don't know who David Duke is but when my boyfriend upsets me, I suddenly become a man hater for a short space of time, although I'm not really.

    What does being Catholic have to do with eating pork and drinking?

    What the fuck are you talking about?

    the issue is that had a white person come into his home and stolen money, he most likely would not have posted "A white male broke into my place..."

    sucks that you got robbed, i just find it annoying when people only make a distinction of race when its a person of color doing it.

    I think you're off the mark here. If he was attacked by a white guy he would probably come on here and say "Some guy attacked me in my home today". Not "some white guy attacked me in my home today". I am not saying the OP is racist at all, and I feel for him and send him my sympathies for having to go through this, it's just indicative of the general feeling amongst some people that black people have some sort of predisposition to criminal behaviour. That's not true. It's a social problem, not a racial one. It just manifests itself as a racial problem because of the social implications of being in a minority.

    Well you sure have a high opinion of the people you are trying to help. Maybe you shouldn't use words like "white trash" and "red neck" to refer to those you go out of your way to help...

    And this statement makes it appear as if you are calling black people poor.

    I think maybe you guys are being harsh on thread starter, he's already proffessed dissapointment in himself for his verbal reaction. I wonder did this low life ball sack of a being pay any attention to what was said?
    MCKB makes a good point, we all go off on one in certain circumstances, just say for example 'wee man' from Jackass came up to you and kicked you in the nadgers..there's every chance you'd blurt out somethingthat alluded to him being smaller than the average person. e.g. "You short arse M****** f*****", you wouldn't normally use that sort of language to anyone, spesh not a 'little person', but anger makes us act out of carachter. So, go easy on the guy.
    P.S. sorry to hear this, I hate stinkin criminals....I so do.
    I came, I saw, I concurred.....

    all I want to say is, I'm sorry you got robbed, and I'm glad you're okay.. which I assume you are, since you're posting here.

    Its shitty when these kinds of things happen.
