Kids and the N word

No, I don't view myself as a stereotype and my problem is how alot of people say black people as a whole are this way when its an actual subculture(like I said in one of my first posts). The problem I have is how others who don't know any better might get stuck in the mindset that they are a "Ni99er" and there going to be nothing more because of how they were raised. Same thing could be said for any race.



Sorry I used your post as example. It wasn't supposed to be taking on anything as just as a broad example. I wasn't trying to slam you its when what you said is used in the wrong context. This is just one of my views from growing up and living in the same area as you. I don't see how im using the racial card when it has something directly to do with a racial issue. n alot of people few my race, as in all of my race, in a negative way because of a subculture. I have had problems in the workplace because of my race and I have been "overlooked" more on my work because of it. The only way that problem was solved was by busting my ass. I could go more into detail but I would rather not.

In a way your proving my point as how sometimes how I have to be careful how I have to react otherwise I will be viewed as using the racial card. I dont think i was but I apologize for that. Maybe the problem is that I care to much about how people treat each other.

Edit:


Wow Lanien that sucks

Burne you seem like a good fella. I was by no means attackin' you but more-or-less tryin' to make you realize where I was coming from. You're a good guy who happens to work and hang around the wrong people if you get overlooked in your work and life in general. Hell, if you're truly bustin' your ass for your company I'd bring it up to the boss, lay it all out there and give your two weeks notice. If he doesn't straighten up, go find another job. There are plenty of places out there who love to have hard workers of any race and people like you, hard workers, rarely have a problem finding a good job. If you're really like this about it all, you're just around the wrong people. They're just idiots.
 
Come here to CO. You'll develop a hatred for wetbacks real fast...

My only perspective of Mexican people comes from that in the North Texas region. I've heard horror stories about Mexicans in California and Colorado but I can't use them for any excuses or "slams". Out here they work hard and are nice people. Now, we do have Cholos, basically "ni99er" in Mexican terms, but they are far and few in between. Even cholos aren't as bad as ni99ers out here. They're still good natured and the only trouble you get out of them is usually trouble you bring on your own. They aren't about startin' trouble, they are about carryin' out their lives and punishing those who bring them trouble.
