My GF is half-black. I have to restrain her in public from chewing out people attacking “ghetto”.

That's right, there are stoopit white people too!

Yup and every last one of them voted for obama. the reason they voted for obama is twofold, first they are stupid and second because the R's ran a D.

Hey!!!

I resemble that remark and offended by your tone, as well your anachronistic thinking.

High time we start blaming the responsible party’s for the ridiculous percentage of descendant of slaves in the USA

WASP slavers, abolitionists, and the GOP led by the Dictator Honest Ape Lincoln.

The communists merely turned them into the gibsmedat army.

Up until 50-60 years ago, a French person entering Eaton's in downtown Montreal and speaking French, was often asked to "Speak White!"

Lol...not all Black people are dumb like what we see on the media or in popular music. They make the wrong choices in life as far as beliefs, just like any human. I’ve been schooled in the proper way to say “breakfast” from a Black waitress. Being from Texas it’s always been “Brake-fust”...I was told (in a friendly way) it’s pronounced “brek-fast”.

97% of the black people I have ever known have spoken proper English. Of course they all have jobs. Go figure!

One day as I was sitting outside of a hospital. I saw two nicely dressed (jogging attire and good shoes) black men strike up a conversation. At first it was all “ebonics” but when they learned that one was a lawyer and the other an account it swiftly changed to “good” English.

It was astonishing to me that bad English is what each expected of the other and they didn’t want to speak down to the other.

Whenever this subject comes up, I always ask,

“Have you ever heard a REAL black African (recent) immigrant speak English? Let alone a domestic multi-lingual African speaking English?”

The answer is almost always “yes”. I then ask the obvious follow-up question:

“Do they sound ANYTHING like cliche’ urban ‘African-American’ blacks when they speak English?”

You all know the answer (it’s usually silence from the party with which I’m speaking).

(don’t get me going on Jamaican blacks...let alone ‘white-ghetto’)

Even HR CLINTON has been known to go ‘ghetto’ in speeches too certain crowds.
