Yeah that was kinda messed but why should kids feel like they need a $200 video game system to be happy? What does it have to do with being Black? When I was 11 I worked in the grapes over the summer and with some of that money I bought a brand new NES with a bunch of games. No one gave me a fucking expense gift and I lived.
This thread again proves skinbasket won way too many participation awards growing up. He doesnt understand what it is like to not get his way. Good thing he comes to PR to find out.

Ouch. What a stinging rebuke.

I see your point and agree it was unnecessary but the fact the kid cried over an XBox is messed up in itself. The video isnt something I would do unless I was planning on really giving the gift later. The parents where asses doing it and more so for recording it and putting it online. Ghetto as hell if you ask me but it has nothing to do with being Black. That part of your point I dont get. This was about cruelty not color.Originally posted by SkinBasketWay to totally miss the entire point on several counts.Originally posted by MadtownPackerYeah that was kinda messed but why should kids feel like they need a $200 video game system to be happy?

Hard time? Sounds like you already got your ass kicked by the Brotha man. If so I can understand your bitterness. I hope you get your revenge someday.

The xbox was disappointing for him no doubt but I don't think that's why he cried.Originally posted by MadtownPackerI see your point and agree it was unnecessary but the fact the kid cried over an XBox is messed up in itself.

I don't think he was crying over the video game. I think he was crying because he was just betrayed by his family, who for the most part were either constantly mocking him with laughter, or telling him he's too poor for an xbox, which is probably why he got so excited to see the box in the first place. The fucking kid holds it together longer than I would expect any kid to considering it's either his dad, older brother, or some other witless fuck related to him in some way that keep laughing at him when you can tell the kid is hurt. Who cares why he's hurt? Kids that age want lots of shit they shouldn't/can't have. The fact is he is hurt, and on fucking Christmas, all he gets is people he's powerless against laughing in his face and telling him he was dumb for believing they could afford an xbox.Originally posted by MadtownPackerI see your point and agree it was unnecessary but the fact the kid cried over an XBox is messed up in itself.
They were black. It was an example of what I think is a problem in black society right now. I used the video to illustrate the point. I didn't come to that conclusion because of this video.Originally posted by MadtownPackerGhetto as hell if you ask me but it has nothing to do with being Black. That part of your point I dont get.

Fuck, with family like this, who needs to get revenge on anyone?Originally posted by MadtownPackerHard time? Sounds like you already got your ass kicked by the Brotha man. If so I can understand your bitterness. I hope you get your revenge someday.
Through volunteering and my wife's work, I get to hear a lot of stories about what's happening in poor black families I simply don't hear coming out of white or Latino families in similar or same positions. I know the Hmong up north act like assholes, but they believe in family and supporting your own, not knocking them down and rubbing their broken little hearts in it. I would say maybe my experience is limited and skewed by my economic, social and racial make-up if it weren't supported by the media and the empirical evidence of hordes of black kids roaming the streets and shopping centers with guns and grills acting like fucking feral animals."You're all very smart, and I'm very dumb." - Partial

All the Black homies I knew growing up would have stolen the Xbox for their lil bro or kid if they couldnt buy it. Not saying they all did just that they felt that strongly about family.Originally posted by SkinBasketI would say maybe my experience is limited and skewed by my economic, social and racial make-up if it weren't supported by the media and the empirical evidence of hordes of black kids roaming the streets and shopping centers with guns and grills acting like fucking feral animals.
As for kids roaming the malls with guns, guess what, only the White ones are pulling them out and shooting everyone in site.

I don't think the cruelty has anything to do with color. There is plenty of white trash out there that treat their kids like crap. I have a freind that I've known for 20 years, and he was treated like crap many times by his dad. Once when he was around 10 years old on his birthday his dad told him to go out to the front porch, and that he had something out there for him. My wife had been wanting a new bike so that is what he was hoping it was. Instead there was a shovel waiting for him. His birthday is in December and it snowed that day and his dad wanted him to shovel the driveway. He never got the bike or anything for his brithday. A new shovel was what he got. Another time his dad punched him in the face and broke his glasses. He had to go around with brokern taped up glasses until his dad bought him a new pair. He had many other bad childhood experience, and later in life he told his dad he was an fing a-hole. Chewed his dad out pretty good. He even gave his dad a list of the things he hated him for. In the end his dad apologized for everything and they have a good relationship. So, I do not think it's a racial thing.

Goddamn it you fucking queers! I already told ya'll the video is not meant to show that cruelty is exclusive to blacks. Only to show an example of why I think there's so many fucked up black kids pouring right through the public schools right now and into the streets. Because this is what they get at home. This is the level of responsibility, compassion and family connection in an alarmingly high number of poor black families. Families that are now more familiar with the terms "baby's daddy," "bitch," and "nigger" than "father," "girlfriend," and "friend."
But there's no problem with the poor urban black community. Or at least you can keep telling yourselves that because you're afraid someone will think you're racist for saying otherwise."You're all very smart, and I'm very dumb." - Partial
