I didn't really come in here to argue. I understand Usher releasing a statement, other celebs that have caped that don't make $ off him or have any affiliation is what I don't get.

They potential is there..You dont get Baby or Wayne or Floyd caping ? They benefit from that relationship.
Hes insulated in that world,very few people are gonna speak out on him,only ones that will are people with nothing to lose...and there opinions will be laughed at anyway...

Its funny how Jonah Hill was made to publicly apologize for using the word "feggot" once, when he was angry at some guy recently. And feggot is a word that half the time is not even used to describe a gay person. That goes to show the kind of pull these LGBT people have. I wouldn't have even apologized. I woulda said "How the fukk is this even news?" With everything that's going on in the world, you're mad cause I said ONE word, that doesn't even have the kind of power the N word does.

And then the public apology. And all these so called public apologies don't even sound like a sincere apology anyway. Its a speech your PR people wrote for you and told you to memorize.

Wild part is all of this will be forgotten by football season. You kats acting as if Justin Bieber's career is over. I don't understand your logic. I don't appreciate his tasteless comments or jokes but he has basically already been given a pass on all this. Not by many here but we run little more than our mouths from a financial standpoint. It's not right but it's coming to pass. Has come to pass really. You can read my post and scream c00n or whatever all you want. I'm not giving him a pass at all but it's not my call obviously. I was never a fan from jump street so boycotting is out of the question. Look at all these powerful folks coming to his aid. Their opinions matter like it or not. They will continue to do business with this kat. His career is light years from being over. :to:

Whoopi Goldberg says Justin Bieber’s racial slur ‘doesn’t mean anything in Canada’

The View co-host Whoopi Goldberg has weighed in on a five-year-old video of Justin Bieber using of the “n-word,” claiming that the singer’s gaffe can be explained by his “youthful ignorance” — and the fact that he’s Canadian.

“You know, Canadian words — I’m going to say the word so get ready to beat me,” Goldberg said on The View on Monday. “N—-r doesn’t mean anything in Canada.”

I'm not even big on conspiracies but it's almost like he's apart of some fold that we aren't privy too. This pass he is getting is really kind of phenomenal. Even when you factor in money. Isn't it all a bit surreal?

You being in denial doesn't change the reality of the situation. You're defending an white kid who's been exposed as being a racist. All that "he was 15 and could've changed" bullshyt is your defense argument. My position here is much bigger than that individual cracker Beiber his exposal just so happens to solidify my position. Whites are racist, period. The sooner that blacks come to grips with that the much better off we will be. Giving whites the benefit of the doubt when for hundreds of years they've shown us who they are is bytch cowardly shyt at this point. There's really no excuse for giving whites the benefit of the doubt anymore. There's absolutely little to no chance that this boy has "changed" since those recording so there's really no point in entertaining that bullshyt unless you're trying to deflect. Beiber is a white male and he knows that. That's all the proof that you need to know that he's racist.
I'm not defending bieber.

I'm acknowledging what he said 5 years ago and not pinning that against him as a 20 year old.

This isn't about the benefit of a doubt, but you have no evidence to suggest he's the same person.

ALSO age does matter so when you're doing trying pin shyt on a dumbass teenager, let me know.

We as a people have no more pride...nikkas like Pac is needed in the industry..

Pac would be best friends with Justin and caping for him too if he were alive... He'd probably be flabby Larry Holmes status as well

Bruh...EVERY POST you defending him.

What evidence do you have he changed? All the money he got you think he suddenly got better?

1.) Sure, but why does he deserve the benefit of the doubt to assume he changed for the better? Maybe his views/jokes got more extreme?
You're speculating. You don't really know this.

If Usher says he tried to educate and mentor the young man, then why do you think its impossible for him to change?

Thats the entire point of even talking about this stuff, right?

If you're not trying to eliminate racism and bigotry through education and awareness then you're wasiting your time.

2.) I think somebody who is culturally groomed by family or surroundings to hate people of a certain race and grow up and educate themselves that it's wrong, but I don't think that profile fits who Bieber is or his upbringing.
Bieber at 15 came otu of the backwoods of canada and was thrust into a world where clearly he couldnt harbor those views anymore...not openly at least.

I think the kid learned SOMETHING. You seem to think thats not possible.

3.) I don't, do you? And if not, why do you think he deserves the benefit of the doubt now? I don't know what he thinks now, but I know he's on videotape making a joke out of "killing ******s" and that's enough for me to draw my own conclusions.
He's on tape saying something stupid 5 years ago. And as a 15 year old. Its disgusting, but that has no bearing on what I should think of him as a 20 year old.

You gotta understand the type of racist that Bieber is. He's a racist in the same way that Donald Sterling is. He will use black people so long as they can give him something in return (power, money, popularity).
You keep calling him a racist, but you have no indication of IF he is still this way. YOu just want to believe he is so you can retroactively "hate him" for shyt you didn't even know about. Its pathetic on your end.

And Sterling ACKNOWLEDGED he uses black people Bieber said some insensitive hurtful corny shyt.

Bieber is not someone who I believe hates black people.
same here

He has black friends and obviously spends a lot of time with them, but that doesn't change the fact that behind closed doors he treats them like shyt. Jokes about them, calls them a ******. At the time these videos were filmed he was a popular musician who was already very close with Usher, had black bodyguards, etc. He was surrounded by black people already. And all we have is two videos, what do you think he does when the cameras aren't around?
You don't know that and you're speculating.

Your best evidence is footage of a 14/15 year old saying dumb shyt.

thats like looking at those Westboro Baptist kids saying all that garbage at 12 and 15 then coming back at 20 and 25 assuming they're the same people.

A lot can happen.
I think Nasir Jones best described the type of person I think Bieber is toward black people:

"Talk about me, laugh behind my back but in my face

Sure. At 14 and 15.
