"shoeshine boy? if you want to insult malik; please do so...but don't insult a whole race of people in the process."

I shined shoes for extra money as a kid. I'm white. What's with this PC crap? Only a hypersensitive liberal would assume that something like "shoeshine boy" was a reference to race. Malik probably isn't qualified to shine shoes anyway. If anything, it was an insult to those of us who have been in some way associated with the shoe shining industry.

That's true too. I'm white and I used to pick watermelons from my grandfathers garden as a child...well, not even going to go there.
