Aiyo King Solo...step in ...peanut gallery fall back

IP:

Okay...here's an excerpt from your OPEN MIC on Racism

People could answer the question but they couldn’t give an explanation
I admire people who speak against it trying to inspire the next generation
In my opinion it’s a crime and those who are racist deserve to be shot
The answer to the question is simple…………………………
The only way you are better is if a racist you are not.


^^ That's certainly respectable...nicely worded


But...How do we fall so far and fast from grace


From that...to calling someone a chimpanzee

Let me give u a little back ground...IGNORANT FUCKS sit down and shut up...

The word Chimpanzee itself isn't racist. The problem is this...

Historically, black people have been considered sub-human in this country (USA). We were called everything from coons, to porch monkeys, to lazy MOFOS...So, though racism can be as blatant as calling someone a NIGGER and flat-out refusing to treat them fairly. There's also a more subtle form of racism and discrimination that exists in things as small as words...

For example..BLACK and UGLY...u never hear

We associate even the word BLACK with darkness, ugliness, dirty, or bad.

So, while some people who aren't black might find this all trivial, it is relevant to anyone who wants to get passed the bull shit that has held this country back for centuries.

Also...some people could argue that me using the word "nigga" is racist or wrong. Truth is...that's the difference between two women calling each other BITCHES and a man doing it, Or, two fags calling themselves FAGS and a str8 guy doing it...

It's not a big deal. but, when I read you making fun of his lips, that did it for me. Black people traditionally have larger lips than white people. Thats a FACT. And, they have often been the object of ridicule. So, add that to your earlier remark about MONKEYS and you see why I had cause for concern.


NUFF SAID...

If ur not a racist...fine...but plz stop making racially insensitive remarks...

Trust me...we all have them...its just better left unsaid
