I agree with you a lot, but pitch that to black people and you'll prolly get hurt. they are a proud, ignorant race.
Bill Cosby says the same thing and people put him down and call him an uncle tom now.
So when someone like Tookie says "too many black people have been brainwashed into believing these stereotypes" he's right, but what most people fail to realize is where that message and those stereo types come from. It's easy to blame the white devil, and a lot harder to look in the mirror.
I hate to break it to you, but the "white devil" still holds at least SOME share of the responsibility

I'm just saying it's much easier to blame someone else rather than look at oneself. The following is more ramblin and not directed at Eihtball specifically since we seem to be pretty close in opinion on things.When we start blaming others (whether true or not), we have given up. At some point in our lives we have to grow up and stop blaming Daddy Who Wasn't There, Crack Head Momma, Uncle Pedophile and President Cracker. Most of us have some dysfunction in our upbringing. We can let it fuck with out heads forever or we can choose to grow out of the manure and bloom into something greater and hopefully break the legacy given to us.
