Such a foolish post.
Son comparing comedians making movies to this.
In come the white ppl wanting to be victims, devil advocates, and straight up ignorant trying to make all things equal to prove a non-point. Yes, please tell me more about the years of oppression on the white man and the endless amount of unchecked hatred and prejudice towards white ppl.

So much going on in this thread I don't even know who's response I should quote first 
Young Money = PATHETIC .. This excuse is unacceptable, "legitimately adopted the culture of the hip hop, African American culture" WHAT? The **** he does is NOT the culture of hip hop nor is it African American culture. Great way to sound like a complete ignorant idiot Mack, just keep giving them more fuel for the fire

I'll just wait for news that he's losing endorsements for these actions. His fan base is still gonna rock with him and rappers are still gonna kick it with him because he's profitable.

Right? My closest boys and I are all different races (Latino, White, Asian) and we all crack lighthearted jokes about each other's ethnicities. But there's a huge difference between those types of jokes (I'm pretty sure most of you know what I'm referring to, but I'm not gonna post them because some idiot will accuse me of being racist and report me) and what Bieber said. I don't even know what kind of people find that type of @#$@ funny

Reading statements out of context doesn't do much. A person can make that one statement offensive one sec, threatening in another instance, and offensive in yet another way. So that's not saying much.
It's not about race of the person it's how it's delivered in context whether you're hearing it or reading it. There's tone and intent that MATTERS in these issues.
I could (mis)quote a Jewish person saying the Holocaust didn't happen, make a thread to see everybody react one way until the full dialogue is revealed to reveal it was a joke being made or that person talking about somebody else.
Your example is in no way comparable to either of the Bieber race topics.

Nah he would have made wayyyyyy more staying away from hip hop. And the "Donald Sterling" types are upset that he's messing up the money train hanging with "those people"

I don't see it being brushed aside, I'm seeing this **** everywhere. beating the story to death isn't going to do anything, for anyone. fans will be fans, supporters will be supporters, people will continue to ***** about him. he apologized, will apologize again, will probably do some good publicity grabs, and it'll be right back to normal. just like when Eminem's old stuff leaked.
dudes don't eem talk about that anymore
dudes actin like we ain't know racism existed yesterday. like we ain't know young white kids say stupid reckless **** at any given moment.
dudes stay ready for the witch hunt on here. there are known racists working in high positions around the country and yall ready to put Bieb's head on a silver platter.
massa got yall lookin foolish out here.
LOL @ TMZ with the ill extortion game.
Once again this sin't about bieber it's about racism still being prevalent and the people who tend to act like it's not there or as if it isn't much of an issue. So when someone with the name and celebrity of bieber are involved it's an open platform for people to discuss the biggest divide (Maybe religion) in humanity.
It is way too common for people to try and downplay the concept or subject of racism and that isn't healthy for any side involved.Nobody is expecting Bieber's career to be destroyed or for people to boycott his stuff (that's a personal decision).
So yes young kids say stupid lil **** like this all the time, sitting here and watching as someone they idolize says it and not discussing the wrongs about it or not showing ramifications to the situation is what allows them to go from stupid little comments to the Racist in high positions that you speak of.
If people are sitting here saying oh it's not that big of a deal, it's okay suddenly it becomes a thought that this kind of behavior is acceptable & that black people just over react to this stuff, which is a sentiment that is clearly shared by some in hear.

Your right about that point but the fact of the matter is he was obviously interested/ positioned to go that route and so he did & just like that people are accepting of him & calling hyping him as one of the best in current R&B (That's all subjective & a whole other topic). either way that money train is still very heavy wit $ and he's momentarily using hiphop culture to drive it.

The depth and shamelessness of racist denial in this country never ceases to amaze me.
It's astounding that anyone can sit here - even from behind the coward's firewall of the Internet - and proclaim that we live in a "post-racial" society while this sort of FLAGRANT racism is considered commonplace. Really, this is EXPECTED behavior from a 14 year old child now?
Normally, this is perhaps the ONLY sort of racism that the general public is readily willing to label "racist." For crying out loud, we're dealing with the invocation of both America's "cardinal slur" and the terrorist organization that has become synonymous with White Supremacist hatred. Really, what more does someone have to say or do to qualify as "racist" in your eyes? It's as though one not only has to commit a racist act (harm someone because of their race, use racial slurs, etc.), but they themselves have to admit that they are racists. Otherwise, thousands of "non-racist" people will somehow find a reason to excuse a Paula Deen, a Justin Bieber, or a Duck Dynasty patriarch. They have to be guilty "beyond a reasonable doubt," and then confess their own guilt on top of it.
If only it were so difficult to be branded a "thug", or an "animal", or a "****", or an "official" slur, for that matter.
It's as though the worst thing you can do in America - they VERY worst thing - isn't to take someone's dignity, someone's life, or someone's liberty; it's to call someone a "racist." That we even TRIED, in this case, is apparently more scandalous than the hate speech itself. What a country.
Ask yourselves, "non-racist" Justin Bieber apologists, why did you feel the need to spring to his defense? If it's "not that serious," why seek out this thread - out of thousands - and devote time to publicly excusing, minimizing, or dismissing his behavior - out of any number of possible uses of that same time? It was serious to you - serious enough to make an uncommon effort to defend someone you don't know, who was TWICE now (ON TAPE ALONE), used denigrating language and "joked" about murdering a Black man for no other reason than racial hatred?
Some of you really need to take a good, hard look in the mirror.
Do you actually identify with what he said - or, in defending him, are you really trying to defend yourself?
One user came right out and admitted that he makes racist and homophobic "jokes." He doesn't want to be called a bigot. He thinks "everybody does it." As long as you and your friends laugh about it, it's all in good fun and anyone who dares to take offense at their own denigration is "soft."
I've always believed the opposite. Being "soft" is being afraid to stand up for yourself, your family, or what you believe in. Being "soft" is caring more about fitting in than your own dignity. Being "soft" is refusing to rock the boat for fear of unwanted attention. Being "soft" is standing by and watching a bully abuse someone to avoid becoming their next target. That's being soft.
Not only do we have people adamantly defending blatant hate speech, but some of you are doing so in ways that are self-evidently racist. Think about the strategy behind bringing up Michael Jackson. What are you saying with that? "You're hypocrites. You people instinctively defend your own kind, too?" Such a tack is, at best, stereotypical and entails defining an entire GROUP of people based on the statements or actions of a select few. The same goes for the ubiquitous "what about all the racial slurs in rap songs" argument.
I hate to break it to you, but nobody elected L'il Wayne (or l'il anybody) as a spokesperson. If you're White, does Justin Bieber or Donald Sterling speak for you? Do they speak for anyone and everyone similarly complected? No? Then you can drop that tired argument - and apologize for summoning the gall to have ever used it to begin with.
There should be some common ground in a shared desire among all people to avoid being defined by the lunatic fringe. For that to happen, though, you have to first denounce - rather than defend - what should, in 2014, be indefensible.
This should have been a teachable moment. This should have been an opportunity for the millions of young people who once (for reasons that I find incomprehensible) looked up to Justin Bieber in awe to now look down on him in pity and learn from his wretched mistakes.
Instead, the big takeaway - at least for me - is that "racist" is apparently the most heinous racial slur in America.
In an episode fraught with inappropriate morbid "humor", that may be the darkest joke of all.

And that's what doesn't make sense to me. What he said was 100% the most absolute racist thing you could say to a black man and he said it 3-4 times clearly. How could any of you guys with any amount of self respect defend him ? disgusting

Read Meths posts...searched online to find video...found video...watched video...didn't care. It was clearly a joke. As someone who makes racists jokes on the daily, I haven't a single problem with it. It was def stupid. It's not a good career move, most people are super sensitive, but, I really don't think Justin Bieber is any more racists than any other person.
Everyone has made an offensive joke, everyone has said somethings in the company of their own that others would find offensive; I'm not getting outraged because he was caught on video, I'm more outraged the joke wasn't funny than I am that he said it, I'm upset we're even talking about it. I'd grill him as a dumbass kid. His actions and choice of friends lead me to believe me he's not anymore racists than me or most other people, which to me, a certain level of racism is expected, hell even welcomed.
I've never really cared about racists talk anyway, even though it is a lot harder to kill an idea than a person, I'm not prosecuting someone for whats inside their heads...now, racists acts matter to me. I guess you can count me in on the boycott...but it's like the Barney's boycott, I wasn't listening to him anyway lol.
long story short...nothing about this offends me...now if he was to say "I won't hire a black man" he's within his right but that would be racists.
