Chuck Barkely talking about black people... again...

[urbetterthenme]

 
Yes, his opinion is wrong. All Black people do not do anything, because Charles Barkley doesn't know ALL Black people.

Is Barkley down in Ferguson supporting the Brown family? Are Black people in Ferguson supporting one another?

That answer is a resounding yes.

So who is Barkley talking about, some idiots in that locker room?

If so, that is who he should be talking about, not ALL Black people.

of course not all black people, but there are black people who do it.

 

[phuzzy badpheet]

Not necessarily disagreeing with you (are Barkley), but you fail to address that your first (knee jerk) response was a very misguided one, IMO

It fit the circumstance and comment. If stupidity is the standard, then everyone should be judged by such standards. 

In regard to racism, which is nothing but the purest form of stupidity, to have stupid people chosen to discuss that and the circumstances of oppression, really does not do us any favors when it is filtered through the media as fact.

of course not all black people, but there are black people who do it.

All Black people are not responsible for the actions of all Black people, are they?

If Barkley is going to throw all Black people under the bus, then let it be because nobody should listen to the likes of him.

Obviously barkley isnt talking about ALL black ppl

But hes right in regards to the majority in this country

man you acting like Charles a self hating urban fellow. He ain't. Dude spoke the truth and now yall sensative. It does not speak in regards to all black people, but the fact that any black person could treat somebody that way is whats upsetting.

Then Charles Barkley should learn to specify his comments, so that he is not manipulated to speak in such an unintelligent manner.

That's why black people ain't gonna get nowhere

Where are Black people supposed to go, Charles?

no u need to learn to not be so sensative bruh because if you were intelligent you would understand Exactly what hes saying

 

[aksuited]

So what side does Charles Barkley think he's on? Because I never looked at him as being on the intelligent side.

I think it's mainly the way he talks. And I don't mean his vocabulary. I mean the way he actually says words. It makes him sound kind of dumb, but when you really listen to a lot of things he says, he's not as dumb as he "sounds"

Okay, let's flip it, remember when he said this?

"that's why I hate white people."

Thoughts?

I mean, if you are really intelligent, you'll understand exactly what he means.

Cuz Charles is black and he's talking about black ppl.

It's not even that the worst characteristics are associated with black ppl. That's a flat out lie you just made up. I can think of a lot of horrible characteristics associated with other groups.

 

[getyashinebox]

You still don't get it but by all means keep flapping your gums...

 

[Master Zik]

Where are Black people supposed to go, Charles? 

To a more prominent and self respecting position in society?

He was largely talking about the crabs in a barrel mentality.

I meant in regards to the group of people.

For instance...a LARGE majority of mass shootings are young white men.

Is the entire race denigrated for that?

 

[urbetterthenme]

Can't even respond because most of yall against charles statement are the self hating urban people he talking bout

That quote isn't meant to be taken in the most consistent literal sense. I'm sure if you quoted the whole thing he'd be giving his reason for why he "hates" white ppl and then we'd get some context but if you don't want to do that okay.

 

[phuzzy badpheet]

Let's take a close look at this, very close.

Why is he talking to a white audience, about what Black people should be doing?

Isn't he doing, exactly what he claims other black people do?

Throwing all black people under the bus, is not necessarily productive.

Did you watch it? The link is right there.

He said exactly what he meant, literally.

Depends who you ask. White ppl love to pass that off like it's a mentally ill/disturbed problem but if you look at the stats that school shooting stuff is strongly associated with white ppl.

If you asking me, yes. Any time I hear about some place getting shot up I think it's a white person. Usually a surpass when the person is not white.

The funny thing is yall dudes witness this stereotypical **** everyday but wanna get emotional once someone popular speaks on our culture

 

[tunnel vision]

man you acting like Charles a self hating urban fellow. He ain't.

Debateable. He damn sure wont ever be confused for pro black.

Either way a successful black person should know the struggles of others like himself. We were born into this, some get caught up, some don't.

I'd rather blame the system, not the other victims.

From another board:

To be 100..... I don't want to hear anything white girl worshipers have to say about the black community....

You not for the black community.... why are you talking?

Agreed 100%. You don't even want to extend your black bloodline.

You're not concerned about us, but you feel the need to criticize us......to a majority white audience.

If Barkley himself wasn't good at putting that ball through that hoop, those same people asking for his opinion on these matters would just look at him like another no good "N".

In short, koons gonna koon.
