Racism

I kinda get what you've been saying but you're making it seem as if Blacks are the only people that get you upset. As if you only see skin. What about white crime. Like White collar crimes. They steal billions of dollars mostly from other hard working decent whites yet you overlook that and worry if that Black guy over there's gonna take an 1.99 valued xbox game cover.

Just put things into perspective. Or maybe think that they act that way towards you cause you act scary towards them even if you look like you're not acting scared or looking cool. You subconsioucly give of an aura of xenophobia that humans can inately sense and that cannot be faked. Just talk to them as you do your white boys. I talk to white boys like i talk to my regular boys. And it works for me.

And the crime thing, just move to an all White town or city then since i'm assuming you'll feel safer there cause you'll think they'll be no crime there either. You got the Moon too. There's zero crime there. That or die of fear stress.

Which is how? Do you get in their face and say "What did you just say, punk?"?

That's a lot of comment to edit out. I answered your question. Yes, to get in their face.

In fact, I'm suprised you would ask such a question as it illustrates that you think me incapable of having any balls. And it's based on the same conclusion these people often reach. You do the same thing they do. They see a short, skinny, white, *** and mocking him from a distance makes them feel superior and manly and impressive. What they don't expect is that same *** to ask them to put their ass where their mouth is. And they have always proven the two don't exist in the same place. My disagreement with you about your religious choices doesn't matter when it comes to a mutual respect I assumed existed between us. And I might stand up to someone for being a baseline bigot, and I might get my ass beaten for it, but I will do it. I have done it. I'm sorry i didn't take pictures. Perhaps you'd like to regale us with tales of how many uppity queers you've smaked down for daring to exist in the presence of "real men".

So was mine actually. The only fun I ever had at that job was when me and a couple other coworkers that I was cool with, used to hot-box the projector rooms.

Can you really blame them though? Stereotypes exist for a reason, and let's be honest; how many flaming sissies do you know personally that could last in a UFC ring?

I've never beaten anyone up for race or sexuality. I've kicked a lot of ass, but for other reasons.

i dont like any crimers but its mostly blacks that cause it in my city. i get scared if im in a bad area and i have to pull over gas or something but if im in a secure public place or something and theres abunch of blacks that doesnt bother me. and actually i have to watch every customer on the floor no matter what race. mostly children i keep my eye on cause they dont put crap back where it goes

You seem mad uptight to me for some reason. Like paranoid. You don't give people the benefit of the doubt.

A cool Black dude would come into your store and you'll give him a stiff tight lipped half smile with deer in the headlights look and say "hi" or "can i help you". Like he's about to jump over the counter, put a gun at your temple and demand cash and a 360 wireless controller, lol Relax..

I'm not saying not to be mindful or not to keep your wits about you. But just be cool. It's ok. No one's gonna tell you to "Break Yo Self!" over Guitar Hero, lol.

You look like you get startled easily. Do you even engage any of you Black customers? Like when i go to gamestop, the white teller dudes there always talk to any and everyone about games like they've been boys for a while, it's to try to get a sale mostly, but they always try to get me to reserve the next great game, and i'll say "nah, thanks, i won't be reserving anything for a while" or something, but ill ask about another upcoming game and they'll get too into sometimes. Sometimes you'll have a couple other tellers butt in the covo to offer they're thoughts sometimes enthusiastically, sometimes not. And sometimes even argue about and/or discuss the game as i leave the store.

You look like you'll just give the shipping date with the tight smile, and that's it. Just chill, lol.

"Hot-box" a projector room?

What, like break in it and watch the movies or something?

No, sealing it up (tape over the door cracks, shrink-wrap over the smoke detector) and smoking weed in the room.

Honestly, how did you not know that?

Which is exactly what I was addressing earlier. Very, very few confrontations are an actual result of race. They might often go there, because of desperation, but they are rarely the end result of racial dispute.

?

Was I supose to know that?

Anyway, all it is is a different term. We call it fishbowling here. That's if you're in a car though.

that's human. But don't make comments based on the entire race, if you don't actually have an issue with the whole race.

That's right; fishbowling is in a car, hot-boxing is in a room.

The fact that you're a black man and don't know weed terms is a sacrilege. I think Kat Williams will back me up on that one.

a treat all my customers equally no matter what race age or sex. and i know i do good cause ive gotten good reviews with customer service. i had a black customer today and he liked me alot and he was cool i helped him find something he liked even though we didnt have the game he came in for. THIS IS THE LAST TIME IM GONNA SAY THIS I JUST DONT LIKE THE BLACKS THAT DONT LIKE US. IF SOMONE IS COOL WITH ME IM COOL WITH THEM. IF A WHITE GUY DOESNT LIKE ME I DONT LIKE HIM.

Then how about saying you don't like people that don't like you. Since you're including Whites in the fray, as well.

Deal?

We smoke in places or rooms without sealing up smoke detectors and door cracks with clear wrap. We just light up. And real talk, i never heard of that term. First time.

And the fact that i have to know weed terms because i'm Black, is sacrilege.

That's like saying if you don't drink Coronas or have never thrown back a Tequila shot, as a Mexican man, it's a sacrilege.

Well from what I have seen and not trying to make generalizations. Inner city blacks don't have the home structure, school finesse, and interpersonal skills learned from leaving their surroundings. Language skills are lacking in most inner cities which puts them at the judgements of others. This is why schools emphasize it so highly.

There is somewhat of a difference.
