If I Was A Black Man I Wouldn’t Fear White Devils -- I’d Fear Blacks

If I was a black dude I wouldn’t be sweating getting offed by some pasty skinned white devil who listens to Cold Play and shops The Gap; or some buzz cut, “creepy-ass cracker” cop wearing Aviators.

Why wouldn’t I sweat such Caucasians?

Well … as a 52yr. old “black man” it’s primarily because of these six things:

-- I’m not selling narcotics.

-- I’m not carrying a switchblade.

-- I’m not shaking down store clerks after they catch me stealing fists full of Swisher Sweets.

-- I’m not beating the stuffing out of a cop after I dared him to run over me as I defiantly slow-trolled down the middle of the street.

-- I’m not looting stores.

-- I’m really not breaking any law (aside from an occasional speed limit) or hanging out with anyone doing shady stuff.

Ergo, as a hypothetical brother, I wouldn’t fear a Caucasian at anytime, anywhere, for anything. I’m cool … you see?

However, my teens were a wee bit different story chocked full of phobias. Righteous phobias, mind you.

As the theoretical black teen and twenty-something, I definitely would fear The Cracker because, back in my day, I was hell on two skinny legs.

Yep, as a “black teen” I would dread the white man, or any man for that matter, especially those sporting a badge -- and here’s why: I did stupid, lawless, evil and wicked stuff with great regularity, that’s why.

Indeed, my fears would’ve been justified because I dealt drugs, burglarized homes and businesses, vandalized property, treated people like dirt and got into enough trouble for twenty punks.

It took a collision course with Johnny Law and Jesus Christ to wake my dumb-butt up.

What I’ve learned after over half-a-century of schlepping this third rock from the sun is this: If I don’t do whacked stuff then, generally speaking, I don’t have to fear people or police … duh.

That said, continuing with the “if i was a black guy I wouldn’t fear the white man” motif, I must say, given the empirical data of late, that if, as a black man, I had to fear anyone for anything at anytime it would be a black person – because the black on black crime is way more a threat to a black person than any thing a white dude is currently doling out. Read this if you think I’m full of crap.

Finally, I will let Chris Rock explain what he, as a law-abiding black man, truly fears. Remember, he said it. I didn’t.

If I was a “Black man” surrounded by “Romans” and their culture, I’d start actin’ Roman or prepare to fight in the circus with the other heathens.

Life in Rome could be very difficult if one wasn’t a citizen. Sometimes I think our black citizens forget their responsibilities to us, the other citizens of different color and heritage, and to each other.

It’s called actin’ responsible, not just white, brown, or black! And while one is at it, learn to speak the language and be thankful for your opportunities. Join us as citizens of America, and not be actin’ like slaves on a plantation.

Is the author illiterate of does he just write that way when discussing race issues?

It just seems condescending - like a literary form of wearing blackface. “I'm trying to address black men, so I had better sound like Chris Rock.” Except he's not Chris Rock and doesn't sound like him. He sounds like a 52 year old doing a poor imitation of him.
