You are right on! all those other fools putting you down like taht CTcutter guy or whatever, they are just trying to trap you. you are 100% correct. these fools take something like being ghetto, and say it's our coulture. Hello!! No it isn't. all it is is an excuse to be a drain on society. people need t educate themselves, stop being so damn ghetto, and stop looking for handouts. next thing they will tell you is, "come to allah" that he is for black people. We'll someone better tell the millions of white muslims all acoss the planet that they joined the wronge religion. as a matter of fact, the only place you see black muslims is in america, and a select few african countries. don't be fooled by those idots. you need to be an example to black people, and the rest of the world

YES, you do contribute to the problem. If you don't understand the problem how can you fix it? ALL you did was state an untrue stereotype that white people already think about blacks. Just to reinforce their belief that ALL blacks are like this, etc. When you think of it your help create more stereotypes, that are untrue by the way. Brilliant!
Kinda like what they did to Africa: They took one indigenous tribe in Africa who still had traditional or what they call primitive culture and said this is how ALL black skin people are., they are poor, starving, dying, swing from trees and have no written language. Have plates in their lips, have HIV, and always sick, no civilization, and slaves.
And they use this to describe a entire continent of VERY different groups. Which is again untrue, Which is exactly what you did, you label ALL blacks as pulling you back because some live in the Ghetto. So you just slandered against people who do not have anything in common with your stereotypes and generalizations.
See where I going with this

First of all, congratulations and I wish the best for you for trying your hardest to educate yourself out of the ghetto. You have the right attitude!
I agree, some black people on here ask dumb questions. But so do some white people, and some Hispanics, and even some Asians. There are black people (unfortunately some of them are very influential in the black community) who think that it's OK to remain in the ghetto. It is not OK to limit your opportunities and not do your best to improve your life.
My sincerest hope is that people like you can convince others who live in the ghetto that education is the key to success and self-respect.
In my experience, there is no higher a percentage of dumb***es in the black community than there is in the white. I've met dumb***es of every shape, size, and color... ;)
Dr. King put it best: we should be judged by the content of our character, not the color of our skin.

Racism is real, no doubt about it. You are not the only person who wants a good life. Many leaders in the 60's challenged racism so that future generations could get educated and have good careers. Wherever a person lives, they have the right to make the best of it. No one wants to live in poverty, but when a person does, it is natural to make wherever one lives a good thing. If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem. Rather than being self-righteous, think of what others who are not as fortunate as you have to deal with day to day.

Some white people on here ask the same type of questions, maybe it has nothing to do with color just ignorance, Ive seen dumb questions from all sorts of people, and at the same token smart ones also.
Furthermore can you really tell someones race by their icon on here, for all you know it could be a white person or a Jewish person for all any of us knows, the same thing goes for whites it could be a black person. Who knows, the question is only a reflection of that persons ignorance not thier skin color.

You have plenty of white folks that do the same thing and it's because they are ignorant! What people (black and white) don't seem to understand is that we (black and white) are bound forever by our history, for better or worse, therefore, should be helping one another; not opposing, yet somehow still remain stuck on stero-types, prejudices, and ignorances.
Keep climbing and be proud, because someone is watching and gonna follow the good examples you leave them.

ya i know what you mean. All "groups" of people have ignorant individuals that take it upon themselves to solely represent their "group". i find that most of theses opinions are way off base with reality and their thoughts are tied strongly to irrational and over emotion arguments .
Here are some of my favorite ignorant comments
"All Muslims are terrorist: " Christian's hate gay people" "White people hate black people" etc...
the point is don't worry about it, because it bothered me for a long time too. but i learned, in the end people are going to find their own truth, whether it's from the media or god or pokie man or rocks?, ya know , people believe what they want to see The secret is, were all just people, that's the whole joke of it all in the end, were just a bunch of people.
you don't have to read any more but imagine this, imagine the whole human race was scatted throughout the whole entire universe, you find your self completely alone, in worlds completely foreign to you. but one day you find a person, in the seem of things, does it matter where who or even when the person belongs to?

Hear here! Black people got here under less than ideal circumstances. But you ARE here now. America is about freedom and moving ahead for yourself. Go for it! Stop letting Liberal White Guys lead you around by the nose, taking advantage of you as they make noises as if they really cared about you. Only pets need handouts. Adults just need a chance. You have it now! Take it!
