You did not quote the my whole answer to you, because it was obvious I was addressing a particular neighborhood in California.
Then you ping people who will only see a sentence out of context in their comments' window.
Nice touch.
I also like to know where I stand with people.

Sometimes we write things without thinking we have to explain everything to the world. At first when I read your post, I was like.. um he doesn't believe that there are areas of hard working black folk? THEN... I reread the article. I had to laugh when the author wrote that. South Central LA is an area of hard working black folk? Esp. with the big boom of gangsta rap... He seems bitter to me. There is a lot of envy against immigrants in general by black Americans. He tries to blame the downturn of the neighborhood on hispanics when it's really 'his own proud race's fault'. I didn't care for how he continually separated himself from the rest of society. Being so-called "proud of one's race" means also being able to admit problems of one's own "race".
So I think I agree with you...

Hold up. I traced the replies back to #134, but that is not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about this statement made by you. Out of context? Hardly.
IF you meant what you say you meant, then you sure have one heck of a way of explaining it.
