We are killing ourselves everyday, it makes no sense but it is what it is. As long as someone points a gun at someone they will point back and there will be bystanders who are effected also. Endless cycle.

The Article I was going to share talked about San Deigo more than LA, it was from earlier than year, and said there had been like 8 murders confirmed as Ethnic killings. It also said that this just isn't happening in Southern Cal either, its happened in Dallas, San Antonio, New York City, Detroit, Toronto, San Fransico, Hamilton, and Denver. The basics is that the whole thing is over drug rights, who gets to sale them and for how much. both the Black street gangs, and the Latino street gangs want control of the market and they began going to war at it. than the Latinos began to kill blacks for no other reason than they are black. since 2002 somewhere around 500 killings have happened.
Im not trying to make a racist statement or anything...but cities with large black communities generally have high crime rates...

Yeah, at our local fireworks, a local hispanic gang called 'The South-side Jokers' threatened over 911 over a dozens times they were going to shoot people when the fireworks started. And we're only a 17,000 population city of 95% whites. It's everywhere.

Everyday you can't turn on the news without hearing about a black male killing another black male over drugs or money or something as stupid as who gets to tap a girl. I don't want Justice coming in here trying to decry this, but its another reason and effect of why black males are generally seen as bad fathers and men overall.
http://www.alternet.org/story/46855/There is a link about what I was talking about. this one isn't as good as the other one though.

Ok the Wyomingians having sex with sheep is true, but you know what I mean.
I dont believe its something in your DNA or something...haha...in my opinion, its like that cause of poverty, which technically you can trace back to racism and all that stuff.

I'm just saying that that is the general perception of black males, a perception that I believe is partially true (at least in my neighborhood and people I know). I know that there are lots of males in our race that do right. As crude as it might sound, my grandma always said theres a difference between a nigger and a man; the niggers are the disgraces of our black males and the men are the opposite.

Okay, this is the post BALLA deleted cause he thought I was arguing with Primetime....I hate the word "african-american". If your black, you get labeled this by people cause they feel it isnt racist...but in reality its very ignorant. Just becuase your black, it doesn't mean you have ancestors from Africa. Theres native people form South America and several other areas thats not in Africa who are black. And even if your ancestors are from Africa...that doesn't make you African, so why are black people called "African-American"? Its like calling a redheaded person from America "Irish-American". The way I see it, if your black and your from America, your either "black" or your "American". Not "African-American". Just my opinion....EDIT: All Im saying is, ive heard people in Boston are generally mean to each other. Asking if its true...sortve like southern hopitality...just the complete opposite.

People everywhere are assholes. I don't even know how to answer this. People are assholes everywhere. It's not like where is some unwritten fact that everybody in the Boston area is an ***hole.

I know the sports fans are assholes, but the people here love sports.I don't think most people would go out of their way to help other people though. I'm pretty sure it's like that everywhere like Boston and New York.
