Black Mamba or Black Racer? One is very venomous and one is not. Do you think you might be a little cautious before you just decided to walk up to this thing?

This isn't a race thing either. It's all about the type of person you present yourself as to the world.

No shite, Malcolm. Except the part where the government doesn’t prioritize them. That’s fricking absurd, despite it not being the government’s job.

All these stories do is continue to make people think black people are lesser than white people.

Wait. Is he saying this as if it is some radical concept? Because self-reliance and responsibility are the foundations of our country. If Corona causes a large part of our population to start focusing on taking care of themselves instead of relying on the government... then this pandemic was long overdue.

I mean, there is some truth behind why we think n that.

I saw a black dude get out a blue hoop tie the other day at ghetto arse Monroe Wal Mart with a white T shite and red banana around his face and for 43 years of my life, that meant someone was getting robbed. His lady friend them got out the other side wearing a more typical style mask and I realized what was up. But for about 3 seconds....

Some of that is their own fault.

If three Nuns would have got out of the same blue hooptie wearing bandannas, I would have thought I missed another holy day of obligation, Don’t Show Your Face to Jesus Day or something.

I don't know how anyone can take anything that CNN puts out as newsworthy.

I went to Sams club yesterday and there were way more black people wearing masks than white people. I wasn’t even intimidated at all.

God I hate CNN.

Their sole mission is to rip the Country apart even during a plague.

That's bullshite. I see just as many black people with masks on as anybody else, other than Asians which are near 100%.

Black and white people are about 50/50.

Republicans have preached this for decades and we've been told it was racist.

Well, professor why don't you start by helping build a better community instead of pointing fingers?
