I could lie to you and tell you I love "black" people, but I don't!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love ALL people! Just to call my status correct, in which it's a shame I have to! I come from a very multiracial background. My father is half African American and Anglo. My mother is half Native American and British. Due to this, I have educated myself via my father and grandmother about the history of our people more then single racial families and individuals that I have encountered. One thing I need to say,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, black men,,,don't claim to nothing about "taking care of yours", and enpowerment in being a stong black man untill you educate yourself and can look at yourself in the mirror saying with honesty, YOU can honor ALL women the same!Bless your heart if you simply can't do so! But also, SHAME ON YOU if you simply choose not to do so! What about this? If you are a man in a store that is getting robbed. The gunman is shootin down everyone. You have the chance to save someone and take the bullets. You see an African American woman with her three year old child about to get shot by the suspect. You also see what appears to be a White woman with her three year old child about to get shot by the suspect. You have the "Man Power" to jump in front of and take the bullet for one of those families. Both same distance away from you. Whom would you choose???????????????????????? ????????????????????? If your answer is I HAVE NO IDEA? Be proud! Your a good man and thanks for being on this earth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you immidiately choose one over the other, I pitty your ignorance!!!!!!! Also this "takin care of minz", or calling a respectable woman "ma", or requesting your woman be a "freak", I can understand urban phonics. However, open up a first grade English book! You hold pride to our first "ethnic" president, Obama? Follow his lead on how to carry yourself as a man! Obama isn't perfect, but he sure isn't tacky!There is a HUGE defining line when it comes to being proud of your own race, vs. being disrespectfull to others that you have no understanding of, but maybe sadder, those you refuse to understand! That is relavent to ALL people! To the mother of your child, to a 78 year old woman in Iraq fighting for her life because she fell victim to an attack by accident by her own people just because she was at the wrong place at the wrong time! One more thing. There was a point in history in which it was constituted for the word Negro to be capitalized in which I think is a blessing in human respect! However, nobody used that word anymore. They use "other" words. Everyone knows what word I'm refering to. Just a personal request, next time u use that word, MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHAT IT MEANS! Because most don't know!
