Van Lathan Fired after argument with cac co worker

[GreenGhxst]

Michael Babcock has such a punchable face

He looks like one of those obnoxious white boys with a know it all attitude

 

[GreenGhxst]

I don’t think Van is a c00n. He has a lot of “new black” in him, i.e. didn’t find out how black they really were until Afro-American Studies 101 in college, but he means well

He's from Baton Rouge, he's well acquainted with his blackness

You don't have a choice, when the schools population is 90 percent black

I knew it. Tmz racially fires a black person and instead of nikkas saying fck tmz they say fck the black person? And celebrate him being fired? And say he got his nikka wake up call? And nobody finds this even a little bit suspicious?

They won't condemn tmz, Harvey, or the white dude Van got into it with but they'll condemn Van or Kanye. If this not proof that this forum is full of c00ns and cacs I don't know what to tell you.

All the years nikkas on here said fck tmz I bet it was only because they had black people on tmz. Now since they've gotten rid of Van it won't be no mo fck tmz talk huh? Y'all can watch tmz peacefully now without having to see the black dude. Now y'all love tmz now huh? Fcking lames

i mean, if we want to be honest, no self-respecting black man should work at TMZ, let alone be the black face of it, in the first place. I see your point, but he defended a known racist (Harvey Levin) and the company numerous times. While I don’t agree with calling him a c00n, I see why people aren’t in a rush to defend him.

I would feel the same way about a black liberal writer working for the NY Post if they were unjustly fired. Yeah, it sucks, but you should’ve been looking for a new job a long time ago anyway. TMZ doesn’t even pay well.

Van is far from a c00n.

He's on his new black feminist movement more so since the Kanye exposure he got, but the last thing he is is a c00n.

For some reason people think being able to have white friends or associates mean you have to be a c00n. Not the case.

 

[King Poetic]

People calling him a c00n and talking about his co workers didn’t stand up for him

nobody produce facts of either and making assumptions

 

[G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman]

You nikkas have a low bar for labeling someone a sellout

Them nikkas work for cacs everyday while kissing ass and laughing at jokes that ain't funny just to appease cacs yet they calling Van a c00n

He might be but he strikes me as a JNCO Jeans wearer until he’s got to college.

What did he say on his podcast?

i meant to say “has”. I listen every so often and he has some good opinions about black culture but it’s often mixed in with black male feminism.

When you’re the one black dude in a sea of white coworkers you’re not getting the benefit of the doubt. All them folk took the coworkers side and cheesing up in the picture. I woulda told them to kick rocks.


That said, black men can’t make threats, especially to moist white dudes. I can already see the neck roll of the fife crying to Harvey “I fear for my life Harvveeeyyyyy....do something”

The downside of having to go to your oppressor for a job.

That’s not c00ning tho

Not saying anything and sitting idly by is the equivalent of c00ning - just as guilty as those who commit the offense -

 

[Nicole0416_718_929_646212]

Got damn, all the pressing issues in the black community and this is a topic. Tariq got suckas nikkas by a leash.

Of all the black speakers and representatives in the community, y’all stay pressed enough to keep talking about Tariq. Considering that most of the coli can’t keep his dyck out your mouth and sucking up for daps ; let’s say that we call it even

 

[Silver Surfer]

I actually liked that dude....didnt seem c00nish at all

 

[you're NOT "n!ggas"]

Damn, he came a long way.

Yeah, came a long way for an ambush breh came on cuz Van is a mutual associate of him and Amanda, and what he THOUGHT would be an even-keeled conversation. I'm not sure Van questioned her actions once but he damn sure helped her interrupt his points and keep breh on his toes Van switched to a whole nother point after this clip just to save her from answering... And all these muhfukkas can worry about is him being called a "c00n" He doesn't HAVE to be a c00n to be bytchmade

 

[Tribal Outkast]

He will be ok

 

[OG Talk]

Van is far from a c00n.

He's on his new black feminist movement

Sounds like a c00n to me.

i think part of him being fired comes from the fact that van started to become popular outside of TMZ on his own and people got jealous.
