Did anyone else watch this? What are your reactions?

To put it shortly, I felt like it was a big excuse-fest. Shows like this only aggravate and increase the problem by making a distinction. As long as we keep making a distinction in race, the problems will only expand. I have to admit that I only made it part way through. I understand disparities exist, but it really seemed like the people brought a lot of these problems on themselves.

It's just a big pity party, I seriously get pissed off watching this. Look, slavery sucked I understand but it's no excuse because it's been over for quite some time. My family was in Poland getting there asses kicked by Hitler but you don't see me complaing about my failures.

Zeh world is full of cry babies. They pretend like they have been abused and everyone is out to get them. That's when you just say "Okay, whatever" and move along.

Lol, I loved the commercials where she said "America is going to know what it's like being black in America" when 1/6 of us already know.

But, my dad is watching it, anyway. >_>

the goal of most cry babies is to obtain reparations such as land, money, etc.

A black girl asked me if I was racist once, because I was glanced at her after she was screaming in the cafeteria... I love the reverse racism. I wonder if there is anyone that actually feels guilty after an instance like that and says to themself "oh dear, how racist of me to stare at a black person for screaming".

I believe people have the freedom to hate and I believe those that are hated have the freedom to hate back. ^_^

Let's spread the hate! No, on second thought, let's not.

Exactly what I was getting at... reverse racism is a tool for re-assurance when acting like a dumbass

xXBuffJeffXx

Did it make the distinction, or did it simply acknowledge that one exists?

Also, we did not bring the problems on ourselves, but I do wish us to do more to fix them.

But I also want all the other world citizens that Europeans have nearly destroyed to unite and seek justice. Sadly I think it is too late for that.

I love how Black people always act like victims no matter what... Like when black guys beat up a white guy and they get charged for it, the black community tries to protest it, because "DAS RACIST".

If racism ended with the end of slavery you would have a point. We were still being killed by racists while our government looked on just 40 years ago. And unlike most others, we can not just change our last name like europeans and assimilate to move up. The fact that we are black is impossible to run away from.

Wow, another thread about how black people are nothing but lazy racist jerks out to make trouble for the white man, and how the USA's history of institutionalized racism against blacks became irreleant in the mid 1800s.

Yeah, I neer thought I'd see such a thread on Gamespot. :roll:

I'm sorry if I offended anybody. That was never my intent, but if we aren't willing to put race aside, if we keep bringing it up and making distinctions the problem is only going to get worse. Look at some of our most powerful politicians: Barack Obama, Colin Powell, Condaleeza Rice. Look at Affirmative Action. Look at all the black interest groups. To say that an INSTITUTIONALIZED mechanism for racism exists in America is ridiculous. Most racists are just individuals with an opinion or marginilized and irrelevant groups of idiots. The program got me upset because it was like the people weren't accepting responsibility for their choices. It was like they blamed some arbitrary external entity on their woes. They didn't choose to do crack, not get an education, etc. That was my only point. Bill Cosby has asserted this. I think Obama has recently implicitly said it in a speech.

SPESSMAHREEN

Eery ****ing WEEEK I come here and see threrads by white people blaming black people for their problems.

"Boo-hoo! My black co-worker sucks at his job! It must be affirmatie action!"

"Boo-hoo! My black friend called me 'that word', but I can't say it back because I'm white! How can I call people 'that word' without white people disliking me because they think that I'm racist against blacks?"

"Boo-hoo! The blacks hae one channel! Sure, that channel portrays blacks in a negatie light by catering to eery single negatie stereotype that anyone applies to blacks, I'm STILL mad! Not because I want a channel that portrays us white people as buffoons, but because I want a channel called WET'!"

"Boo-hoo! Why did eeryone get mad at Michael Richards? He's not a racist, he was just stickin' it to the black man!"

I come here OFTEN. Don't beliee me, check my post count. I come here and I can count on ONE HAND the number of times I'e seen black people playing the ictim. Usually, on pretty much a weekly basis, it's white people blaming blacks for crime. Or white people blaming blacks for poerty. Or white people blaming blacks for why the white TC got turned down for a job or didn't get admitted to a certain school. I hear white people complaining about how they shouldn't hae to be taught about black history in February.

Don't ****ing DARE talk to me about blacks playing the ictim. Don't een ****ing try it.

Yeah, thats all we do. All day. :/

well except for picking up your welfare checks and getting some forties

Do they still even MAKE forties? I wouldn't really know. I don't drink. I am also a vegan. I bet you thought they were all "hippies" didn't you?

I also bet you didn't know that most people on welfare in this country are southern whites. Look it up. Knowledge is power.
