i feel what your saying M Dogg but personally i dont think a college environment is really representative of a white-majority community. A college is the best and brightest (and sometimes richest) of society. There are a lot of white communities where nobodys going to college, either because they havent had a good edumacation or because they cant afford it (eg: me)

I understand your point tho, if most people at your college are white that would suggest whites do have a better upbringing with more chance for success. but i think proportionately there are as many white folks thats going nowhere as there are successful ones.

unfortunately the same cant be said for minorities, as we all know there is large number of 'minority communities' with a bad education system etc, most likely more than prosperous minority communites where people are given a fair shot at life

but is that really the fault of those communities themselves? i think the government is more to blame for not installing the right basis for success.

phew, hope that makes sense  :)

I just think minorities should try to follow know succesful whys of bringing up their communities. That's what I take out of rappers saying, black people need to stick together. That's all. It works in building strong, succesful communities. And by working together, schools, and law inforcement can be worked with. But an indivual by himself can't do it. That's what I think about when I say stick together. Because to improve the country, and other communities, white or minority, first a community must help itself. We aren't racist, just trying to get a piece of American Pie too, and I don't mean the movie, but the dream.

Yeah, Your Main Point Is Dead-On, I Swear In My Opinion The #1 Problem With Peeps Today Is Stuff From Their Childhood.  Think About It.. When you're A Kid You Learn Everything.

You Know How Through The 9th Grade Or So, You Learn New Stuff, Then From There On Out It's Review? Same Thing In Life, You Learn What You Use In Life Early.  If You Got A Screwed Up Family, Or You Ain't Treated Right As A Kid, You Ain't Never Gonna Be Straight.

Drive a wedge? Man the first thing to getting rid of the wedge is to first see the differences between mentalities. The Human mentality is cool, but it's not reality.


 That's for real!  We should atleast recognize that not everyone is tha same... The sooner people recognize it, the sooner people will learn to live with each other.

  You put a white, black, hispanic, and an asian guy in tha same city and all four of them are gonna go through different struggles. They're all gonna struggle, just in different wayz. And what I'm trying to say is that none of them will be able to FULLY understand the next man's struggle.

   What Trauma said about gettin' pulled over and the cops lettin him slide.... that's for real too. Like he said, "Open Your Eyez"... people WILL treat you different simply because of the color of your skin... yeah it's fucked up but that's just tha way it is....

Yet Criminal called me a future Remy......


  LoL.. yeah I remember that.

  GO LOOK AT WHAT YOU WERE SAYIN though dawg!! That whole post was like if you tellin' white people to beware black people.

  In my first post I wasn't tryna say that because some white guys blow up a building or burn down a church it means the whole white race does that... that would be ignorant as fuck.... I was just pointing out to BigJakeDoggyDogg who said that Minorities were "MORE racist than whites" that if you look at tha HATE crimes (Not just crimes) that have been commited in tha U.S. (Not T.J)... most of them have been commited by white people.

  BigJakeDoggyDogg : about tha airplane ticket thing... Bakersfield is about 3 hourz away.... I go down there like ever year.. I know what it's like. I know there's a grip of Mexicans out there. It aint right to say that they're all lazy and drunk off Corona'z though cuz when the people who DO look down on us think of us.... THAT'S what they see.

Yo, Crim, all I said is blacks and shit are just as bad as whites...

Didn't say beware the blacks. Shit man, most my friends are black...

But I have a HUMAN mentality. I don't have a "white" mentality...I don't have a "black" mentality. You make your own mentality, as I already said.

Anyway, peace man...Crim, our kinda-beef squashed man?

But on a final note, this could go on forever...You have to look round the world...Uganda, Zimbabwe, Mexico, the U.K., German, Spain, India, Rwanda, Australia, ANYWHERE with more than one race.

I think that if you're in a minority you get to a point where you come to the conclusion y'all should stick together. livin as a pole in germany i experienced a lot of racist shit too but what i learned was that you simply can't say that everyone who's in the same minority is automatically good and the whole majority is bad. i mean i'm cool with many germans and foreigners and i don't give a fuck where s.o. comes from and that's the way it should be. there's always some punks doin dumb shit but you can't blame the entire race for it. you can't generalize it and you can't say: one black did a drive-by so they all do it. that's the most ignorant and racist attitude possible. there ain't nuttin bad about unitin but you gotta keep in mind that other peeps been brought up in a different way and got a different culture and you gotta respect it. plus it's scientifically proven that ALL people originally came from Africa and the skin color is just an adaptation to the environment so why the FUCK do some people still care about what others look like.

The whole coast-related dissin stopped a while ago.
LL does collabos with Dre, Snoop, Xzibit, Dre worked with Nas on The Firm etc. Wu-Tang even did Got My Mind Made Up with 2Pac when the East vs. West shit reached the climax. But what the fuck does it have to do with racism dogg?
