He still stuck on that Cuban said he said black and white dude comparison. But he still hasn't answered the question, why can't black people wear hoodies without having people getting scared? Why would a black person wearing a hoodie elicit the same fear as a white dude with a face full of tats?

Exactly. Nobody is addressing the crux of the problem. The unemployment rate in the black community is doubled because of black people saying youknowwhatimsayin? He is actin like every black man with a tie and bachelors degree is guaranteed anything. Trust me, there are educated brothers and sisters who cant catch a break. He is chasing his own tail. He already admitted there are political "land mines" out there, but won't fully address what they are and who is setting them. Then turns around and says that blacks are creating the land mines because they don't conform to the people who he initially said are setting the damn mines. if you're gonna preach, then preach the full gospel.

All he is doing is helping Cuban with his ultimate motive, deflection. You wanna say everybody has prejudices? fine. You wanna say that Marc Cuban should be applauded for his honesty? cool. NOW let's address the ill effects of such prejudices and who GAINS from perpetuating them. SAS is spittin all in the camera saying if blacks do this and that, you'll get a job. What he should be saying is if Bigoted and prejudiced people in power stop doing this and that, No--NEVER STARTED DOING this and that, MORE blacks would already have those jobs.

Only a fool thinks the systematic discrimination that has been placed on blacks for hundreds of years could be erased with a neck tie.

Many more respectable black people who arent c00ns preach that message everyday and much better.

Why give credit to Stephen A c00n for it? :yeshrug:
Oh I'm not giving him credit for it, one of the brehs was asking a question on what he was talking about.

Exactly, it's a simple fukking question, but he decided to change the subject and go on a diatribe about black blaming other races for shyt. :mindblown:

Because this is white America. If it was black America it would be the other way around

But I can listen to Umar Johnson over Smith any day. Dr. Johnson has 6 degrees and works in the community. Smith just speaks on the same talking points that white people use when describing young Black men. Dr. Umar speaks on the millions of Blacks with Master's and Doctorate degrees who still can't find jobs, but Smith won't talk about that.
He won't talk about that because it's a sport show and he did mention the black unemployment rate and not finding jobs. For that platform on TV I check Roland Martin's show. I as well listen to Dr Umar, Dr. Claude Anderson, and Joe Madison just as I listen to Armstrong Williams or any other black conservative that make sense.

its just false equivalency - look at his language. "a black man in a hoodie is dangerous, just like a white man with a shaved head and tattoos is dangerous!"

yeah well what about the white man in a hoodie? no one automatically thinks "threatening thug" there. it was way easier for him to characterize the scary black man, whereas the scary white man has to be an extreme example (Nazi).

this (commonly right-wing) argument is used as a straw man to purposefully obfuscate the real issues. yes, everyone has stereotypes and preconceived notions, but that shouldn't stop us from combating systemic racism

How did Stephen all of a sudden become a voice for the black community? The fact that people are cosigning him so hard is mind boggling. :snoop:
