When someone wants to get loud in a store and gets the cops called on them, Black. Ive seen this happen time after time, and then I see the Caucasians walk in and out without a problem. Many times I want to ask these Black people if they realize what theyre doing. You want to complain about racism but then act a darn fool all the time? What is that? Why cant you walk in a store and act like a human being, act civilized, why must you act loud and rowdy and trash everything? Kind of like what Ive been told many times, look at the ghettos. You see how run down they are? This is why the White Man wont let the Black Man have anything. And the people that told me that were Black. Not Mulatto but 100% Black. Ive been told that time and time again, even in the ghettos by Black people who want better for themselves but look around them at the drug dealers and gunfire. Theyre disgusted by it. Those drug dealers, the guys doing wrong by their families, they would be called the 'n-word' and Im sure Ive heard them called that many times. Am I so wrong to be disgusted as well?

The worst part is that one reason racism may still be around is, sure, stubborn people. I dont doubt that. The other reason is because people keep seeing these guys on TV, these guys carrying on acting fools and getting arrested, whens the last time you saw an episode of 'Cops' that didnt involve some African Americans, and then they say 'Stupid n-words' and think everyone is like that, making it that much harder for the respectable African Americans to make something of themselves. Why? Just because of the color of their skin theyre lumped in with that crowd and honestly, I dont think many like that at all.

Then again its a Black neighborhood. I think this is, again, all in where one lives.

EDIT:

I thank you for your prayers but where did I take this wrong turn and how? If Im wrong please tell me how. Im more than willing to discuss this. Im not racist at all, Im just saying what I see.

I have a college education. I grew up in a HOUSE, not a HOOD. If you want to know why some random black person was arrested and is on Cops, I suggest you go ask them. I have no idea.

Asking me about ghettos is absurd. Should I ask you about trailer-parks?

The sad part is that you are so happy about your bigotry. You don't know me but want to ask me about the actions of the people in YOUR neighborhood simply because we share skin tone??!

BTW - people who aren't racists don't have to make announcements.
