This is NOT hip hop culture. Hope you get better.

there are thousands of youtube videos of people of varying ethnicities doing really dumb....dangerous...slutty and illegal things. It is what it is...but its fun to talk about how blacks are leading the way on the road to perdition. Keeps em warm at night.

MOST of us are nothing like these buffoons and they embarrass the hell out of most of us! There is no F@#$%&^ black community. So since I don't live in the ''hood'', my community is not my community?? Yeah...right. ATS has definitely changed over the years.edit on 12-6-2012 by poloblack because: (no reason given)

"Black community"...first off, people are a product of their environment and secondly, you don't have an innate predisposition for "ghetto behavior". If someone is born into an impoverished area where gang violence and drugs run rampant, what do you expect?
In order to stop it, you have to fix the environment in which all of this is happening, or it will continue to perpetuate itself into future generations.
That's been my point in multiple threads Advantage. These morons don't represent me or the majority of black people. Thanks for your input bro.

Dont get upset about it. Teach people whats what. Mainly whites see blacks as whats represented here. Help people understand that this isnt ALL blacks. I think a lot of ATSers are " I have a black friend" types.. they have no real understanding. Take a deep breath and help them understand. Even if its rejected or ridiculed, you never know who is lurking and reading that you can touch and maybe plant a seed of understanding.

But the morals and tenets that a culture choses to place importance on makes a big difference too.
And I'd like to add that this tenet, this behavior, may have been popularized by people who lived in the ghetto, but it has been adopted by many youths in America who do not live in the ghetto. It has evolved into an American youth problem.
