But as Ive said before..if you wanna talk the talk, you better be prepared to walk the walk. Treyvons ego wrote checks his ass couldnt cash....
:confused5: He was kicking Zimmerman's ass so badly Zimmerman felt his life was in danger. That check not only cleared the bank, it was certified.

If you (or more accurately, they) choose to live their lives with a chip on their shoulder and not take advantage of all the things this country has done and continues to do for the black man, they're fools.
:iagree:

Black on black crime started when blacks sold blacks to the slave traders. If there is ANY chip to be on ANY shoulder, it needs to be within their race.

In the words of Billy Joel..."We didn't start the fire".

While that may or may not be true, using the "But he did it first!" argument falls flat on its face. It also plays right into the blame culture we all need to put behind us.

It is a stronger argument than "You're great great grand-daddy did it to me, so I'm taking it out on YOU.

Truth could very well be that THEIR OWN great great grand-daddy was an active participant in the slave trade.

It's always so easy to make negative assumptions and so hard to make positive ones.

I guess my point was we need to stop pointing the finger entirely. It serves no purpose at this point.

I wish we had a couple black people here to weigh in. :D
