Thanks NotYourAverageDhimmi.

Sharpie has battered race card cuz he be pulling it out of his wallet all de time.

[joethedrummer]

Oh, cry me a river, Al.

Holy crap dude, you aren’t old enough to have ‘suffered’ anything by someone of another race that I haven’t.

Our differences? -I haven’t gotten RICH on OTHER PEOPLE’S MONEY from crying about it.

It is always the people OUT there that he is always blaming -——never the people IN there ——— the ones he is supposedly so concerned out.

How much has Al made profiting off the battering of his race?

So they don't have to beat us, we beat ourselves with our own battered syndrome of we can't win. I don't know what marching gonna do.

Let me get this straight - whites can be blamed for 'beating' blacks and causing them to be failures without even beating them or being near them - or talking to them or walking in their neighborhoods or ANYTHING... BECAUSE they beat themselves up in our name and blame us? OMG - the eternal blame situation has been created... Well, I'm not buying it. No one else should either.>

And "marching' stuff? It had it's place in the civil right era of the 60's... But 'marching' doesn't do crap as far as getting kids to drop drugs or get good grades or keep a job. THAT TAKES individual effort. Blacks think forcing teachers to bend to their demands will educate their kids - it won't... Their kids need to sit down with their books and study. And black parents have to STOP giving their kids an 'excuse culture'. It cripples their children.

Hate to say this, but a lot of losers from other races also have this problem.

It sounds like “the Trilateral commission controls the world”

or, “the powers that be won’t let it happen”

or “the old boys network controls it”

AND there is some truth to the matter.

In the debate over “it’s not what you know, it is who you know” vs. “it’s not who you know, it is what you know”, there is actually some truth to both viewpoints.

One obvious case is college athletics. The coach recruits a big name high school athlete who is a dud in college but that guy keeps starting because benching him in favor of the walk on who is better, would make the coach look like an idiot.

I believe most of the time when the black man whines about whitey or society keeping them down, the claim is bogus. But sometimes “the man” really is keeping them down.

Is Sharpton now attempting to speak for Caucasians? Cause if anybody’s got ‘battered race syndrome’ it's Caucasians.

[Cyber Liberty]

I dunno about old Al, but I sure has it.

[Some Fat Guy in L.A.]

Be a man Al - pay Tawana’s fines out of your loose pocket change.
