Whats with blacks not eating swine aka pork
« on: December 06, 2004, 09:07:22 AM »
Now, if they were muslim that would be normal, but I've seen this numerous times. Non-Muslim blacks talking about not eating swine. Xzibit has mentioned it, he says something like, "mother you taught me better than to waste my money on swine". MC Ren says something along the same lines. Another mention of it is in Boyz N the Hood. When Tray comes home from the BBQ he brings back some food for this father and he says, "this isnt no swine is it". Anyone know the history behind this?

how about another.. Samuel L Jackson in Pulp Fiction.. "the pig is a dirty animal".. even though of course that line was likely to have been written by Tarantino

I think his dad is supposed to be Muslim in the movie, and that's how they were trying to portray that.

It's a result of the Nation of Islam's influence upon Black america.  Even those that don't wholly believe what the Nation of Islam is pushing, or even those that are Christians and not Muslims, still adopt some of the ideals of the Nation of Islam to help set themselves apart as conscious objectors to the status quo in America.

That's because Xzibit and MC Ren are both muslim. And it's a fact that pork is dirty, at least it's unhealthier than any other meat product, it's common sense.

Yea basically. The NOI has a big influence on potentially racist rappers.

actually white meat is better for you and all meat is held to the same health standards as other meat, you never hear of cases of mad pig disease, or no one dying from food poisoning in pork

in other words, stop making shit up or check your sources again

Yea the argument of not eating pork because it's unhealthy is extremely useless nowadays.
Not eating pork but other meat in times of foot and mouth disease and the mad cow disease. Hilarious.

yup.. there is nothing wrong with pork.

this whole stigmata is because both muslims + jews banned it because of plagues back 1000s of years ago...

That shit is old. It was a whole movement back in the 90's for black people, but its hardly practiced anymore. I know I love my pork.

I don't eat pork for a number of reasons. 

1.  Pigs are Filthy animals
2.  After that whole Robert Pickton thing, I don't wanna eat pork ever again.

Actually, the main reason why Muslims don't eat pork is because we only consume meat of animals that are killed a certain way. That method involves the knife cutting across the jugular vein, so that all the blood exits the body of the animal in such a way that none of it gets to the meat. That way the meat stays clean, but this is not possible to perform on the pig due to its natural anatomy.
