<< You know gets me. You see some white person who just has this attitude towards blacks. But every time you see them they are a shade darker from going to "Hollywood Tans". >>



You don't hate whitey do you? I can tell by your attitude that this is true....not!
>>

HEHE, its always us against them with this guy, who knows why.
>>



Man I am only joking. Us against them? Hmmm well that might be a little difficult for me. See I crossed over to the "Light Side", get my drift.
>>

All i'm saying is that you are very argumentative when it comes to blacks for some reason, just something i've noticed. Hey, to each their own, I get along with all races. Some of my best friends are black:D(yes, that was said jokingly as a jab at white people who always say that)

<< No offense, but when do white people try to look black(except for those kids that want to be a black rapper, you know, wiggers)? >>



None taken. But I was kidding. Hell do I care if people get tans? :D Seriously, race is such a small thing to me. I've met complete arrogant a$$holes who are white, black, asian, etc. And I've met incredibly wonderful people who are all those races as well. The only person trying to look like a different race I have a problem with is Michael Jackson. But he's just freaky.

Inner city kids don't shoot people at school, they just pass out xanax to their fellow classmates (happened yesterday in a philadephia middle school):)

Actually 80 % of rap music is purchased by suburban white teenagers. 90 % of their concerts are filled with white kids. Anyways, about the serial killer thing, a kid in my school did a report on this very issue. It seems white males make up more than 90 % of all active, current, and dead serial killers. I think it is something genetic, but nobody really knows because there is no conclusive evidence.

Same reason I'm currently listening to country music. One must understand the enemy. :D

Actually, I think it has a lot to do with anger. A lot of rap (not all, but a lot) is about anger and alienation and disenfranchisement. And thse feelings are universal, therefore, even white kids who supposedly "have it made" go through huge phases of being able to identify with the underlying pain.

Or good marketing.

<< Why is the majority of rap music purchased by white suburban males, aka "white boys"? >>



You're a tool. It's like the argument that "whites" are taking advantage of black athletes. It fails to impress me. If they weren't buying the "black" CD's you'd be crying discrimination.

Give me a freaking break today!

Does the theory it's genetic suggest that it's not their fault (my genes made me do it!)?

Sounds like bullsh1t to me.

Actually, if they weren't buying "black" CDs I'd say they were smart. I can't quite figure out rap's appeal.

I'll admit, I'm white and I like country music. Guess I'm not pissed off at the world or feeling disenfranchised.

I'm lucky though. My parents aren't rich, they were there for me, and they didn't spoil me rotten.

I don't recall when exactly, but I remember reading in SI that black people have longer ligaments in their calves, allowing for the higher average vertical leap. Though I think I got shafted, cause my vertical sucks.

No, every human is responsible for his or her own actions. It's called accountability.

<< Rap sucks >>



In general, I'd agree, but there IS some good stuff out there. Tribe Called Quest, for instance, is exceptional music. As are SOME Tupac songs. But spare me that P.Diddy, Jayzee, outkast, Snoop Doggy Dogg crap. Bleh.

Thought: I'd like to know the percentage of the white population commiting serial kills as opposed to the black population doing the same.

That would be interesting.

Something like that, anyway. There are a few anatomical, mostly physiological, reasons that blacks make better athletes (generally speaking). The research is there, but its obviously forbidden professionally and politically to talk about it. They also have better teeth than Europeans.

You do notice there is a difference between American black athletes and Kenyan athletes, eh? Jimmy the Greek was fired for telling the unadulterated truth. Granted, he was drunk when he said it, but the truth should never be punished, whether or not someone is drunk when they say it matters not.

That's one of the biggest problems I have with this culture. If anything could, in any small amount, be seen as racist, regardless of whether it's the truth or not, it's seen as taboo. That's crap, IMO. I'd rather face a hard truth than be ignorant of it.

I'd wager money that one of the reasons for the difference between American black athletes and Kenyan athletes has to do with slavery, and the change it caused in the physiology of slaves.

If you've got the facts to back it up, then I'll listen to you, no matter what it's about.

Oh, and I'm glad I inherited my father's teeth instead of my mom's, as I have no cavities and she's got quite a few. She told me I was lucky, too.

Somebody asked for the statistics on serial killers, here are a few selected ones:

  • 84% of US serial killers are caucasian (includes hispanic, asian, etc), 16% are black.
  • More than 90% of serial killers are men.
  • 65% of the serial killer victims are women.
  • The vast majority of serial killers do not kill outside of their own race, only about 1 - 2% of serial killings are racially motivated.
  • 76% of all reported serial killings in the world (only includes modern countries who keep reliable records on such crimes) come from the U.S, with California having the most serial killings of any state. Maine has the fewest, with no known serial killings.
  • Among European countries, England [28%] accounts for the largest percentage of serial killings, followed by Germany [27%] and France [13%].

Right. Care to explain?


Hehe sure. Regarding the "84% of US serial killers are caucasian (includes hispanic, asian, etc), 16% are black" statistic. You have 16% black people and then... everyone else.... apparantly mexicans, asians, native americans, and otherwise are all caucasion now, and they all neatly fit into the category. Then you got those "black" people with their 16%.... it just doesn't seem right!

Or maybe I'm just a weirdo lol
