I’ll just state upfront this is more of a “let’s make fun of this guy for being an ignorant ass” thread than a real pitting, but I feel he’s deserving of the snark and vitriol that’s usually found in this forum.
Anyway here’s the story:
**
Skinhead picks fight with boxing champ and loses**
And the punchline is after being released from the hospital for facial fractures he was booked into jail for malicious harassment.
When I saw the picture of this guy I thought it looked like he got off awfully easy had he actually been clocked by a boxing champion. It turns out that apparently it was just a T-shirt, he isn’t a boxer or affiliated with the boxing club on his T-Shirt.
The proper punishment for “The Great White Dope” would be to have his mug shot permanently tattooed on his forehead and each cheek. That might discourage others.
Instant karma indeed. It’s too bad gangs can’t get that sort of karma. Instead they jump those of another color not one on one but gang on one and get lauded in rap songs and it becomes ingrained in the less intelligent that they are tough for doing so rather than quite obviously chickenshit. As bad is this dick was it was one on one.
I’m glad he got what he deserved, I just wish everyone did.
So I’m the racist for recognizing the nature of ALL gangs? Nice. Perhaps I should have added the qualifier SOME rap songs but I figured it obvious. Nice insinuation. Good job. Hows YOUR nose Simplicio?
You were doing fine until you dogwhistled with “rap songs”. Not a lot of White, Latino, or Chinese rap songs, but there are plenty of racial gangs associated with all three.
I suppose you get a pass for the Russians, since they have gangster rap now.
Sure I could have said I hate the romaticization of gangs in popular culture which is true. I dislike the mob and the cool factor which media pins on them as they are just heartless criminals worthy of nothing but disgust, however the thug life culture and popularization of it is doing the worst most widespread damage to low income communities and I suppose I just don’t understand the glorification of damage. I want those communities to do well and that starts with culture.
Can you imagine if the KKK were promoted through music and had a cool cache’? It’s had a time when it was through movies and southern culture and it was damn wrong. The time to point out something isn’t right isn’t after it’s popularity is past. I’m glad nerdcore has a rap element but I just don’t see it catching on in some neighborhoods. I hope I’m wrong. But yeah gangsta rap is just a refection of what is going on in the hood… and a feedback loop.
I can’t say if you ARE a racist, but when a story about a black man defending himself from an unprovoked assault by a white supremacist immediately triggers a rant about gangs and rap music, despite the fact that neither gangs nor rap music have anything to do with the story, it sure as shit makes you LOOK like a racist.
And I don’t care what it makes me LOOK like. I know what I am. Look, if you read the other things I said in the same post you can see that I’m glad this assault was one on one and he (the racist) got what he had coming. Exactly how many attaboys do you need?
I’m damn glad the idiot couldn’t find a few more idiots to gang up on the man. It would be nice if that were true in all instances.
