> [@scratch\_llll](#): > > 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? How about one less “sure sounds like a backhanded swipe at black culture” instead of more attaboys? ---

> [@Miller](#): > > If that were true, you wouldn’t be whining about people thinking you’re racist. Whining? If you think my defending myself against accusations of racism is whining then you have a problem decerning what whining is. But okay. I quit. ---

> [@scratch\_llll](#): > > 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. > > And if the whistle brings a dog that’s cool. Yes, because the Mafia isn’t romanticized in countless movies and TV shows. Look, it’s obvious that black men terrify you so you’re probably not all that rational but compare the number of movies glamorizing black gangs versus those glamorizing the Mafia. ---

I also never called anyone a name here or tried to stifle conversation by claiming anyone was whining but you have at least shown some fairness with the last acknowledgement. I am sorry I derailed the thread though. For that I apologize to joebuck. I have to admit to being a bit of a dope for that. ---
