The problem is that there are no high-profile black people refuting these irresponsible comments. When all we hear are irreponsible comments by Jesse Jackson, Jesse Jackson, Jr., Al Sharpton, Kayne West, Sheila Jackson-Lee, Julianne Malveaux, Maxine Waters, the idiot congressman from Harlem, whatever his name is, and the like it is very easy for non-thinking white people to attribute that thinking to blacks in general. These idiots spewing their venom is horrible for race relations.

Why should someone black have to apologize for an idiotic comment someone else who they don't know who happens to share the same skin color as themselves? That is the same silly logic that calls for reperations.

Between this train of throught, and the idea on this thread that we should "punish" Kanye West, a multi-millionaire who will go home to his warm mansion, by withholding donations to the victims of this disaster of all races who have lost everything, I swear that some people on this board has gone completely goofy.

We're tired of the hip-hop mentality being looked to as a place of conscience and moral direction. They are viewed by the MSM, Sports writers, Hollywood, etc. as if they are the great artists of our time. Hog wash! We will find other places to donate, places that recognize the hip-hop mindset is nothing more than spoiled and defiant.

Like it or not, these idiots are the face of black America today. Respectable black America needs to organize a "You don't speak for me tour."
