Way to take a stand, po

I don't really understand some of the previous comments. Black people can't be racist? Is that what you're trying to say?

I don't think he's racist, I'm not making that assumption. I'm just saying that the statement itself was a little racist. My main point was that if a white man said that about white people, al sharpton and Jessie Jackson would lose their ****, as mentioned above. It would cause a big stir about racism.


Another example is a couple years ago, espn was flooded by stories about there not being enough black coaches in the NBA and NFL. That's fine, I don't have a problem with that discussion. On the other hand, nobody says anything about the lack of white players, primarily in the NBA. If someone did, it would cause controversy and this person would be labeled a racist.
