That's the stupidest bullshit I've ever seen. When I start feeling inferior to a race that has the highest crime rate, highest illegitimacy rate, highest incarceration rate, highest out-of-wedlock birthrates, highest illiteracy rates, are predisposed to completely ****ing up the English language due to a warped cultural environment, are predisposed to vote for a party hellbent on enslaving me, own their own ****ing continent, but it's the most completely ****ed up three ways to Sunday continent in the entire world, I'll kill myself yesterday.

If that offends anyone, I do not ****ing care. Perhaps the idiots at "BlackPrideUSA" need to work on addressing all that bullshit before attempting to tear down another race and continue the perpetual "race war" on image.

Come to Memphis, Cyrus. You know, where MLK was killed.  Check out these people.  They look nothing like what you posted pics of.  NOTHING.



I thought MLK was a American hero?

I searched Memphis Blacks on Google Images and found these:


I do not know much about American Blacks but I think I have always respected Africa for being the birth place of humanity (that is all I know about Africa).

She didn't say anything about MLK. He was an American hero and his words of wisdom have been COMPLETELY ignored and replaced with a "you owe me" entitlement mentality. She said something about the projects of Memphis, of which there are many. Memphis is a VERY dangerous city so this BS about black people being the best thing to come from America is as asinine as saying the best thing to come from America is white people.

That would be a wholly media-driven image.  Black people run the gamut from being stick thin to being as fat as a parade float (probably more in the latter group than the former).  If you paid attention to what popular media and advertising showed you, white people are portrayed the same way but it's obviously not true.

I just searched "fat black african american" on Youtube and one of the results was this:
[youtube=425,350]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_irMu4Yrcw[/youtube]

I never knew the fattest group in America was African American women. Interesting.

My google search of "are black men fat?"

Brought me here:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100321132948AAxf0pc

Allow me to quote one of the responses:
I don't think anyone can answer this on facts. Every person is different. Although, black people are notorious for eating a lot of high-fat greasy foods. I suppose it's just tradition; to eat hardy home-cooked meals!

This explains it.

No it doesn't. The reason is because the majority of the black population lives in the South where the diet is heavy in fat and where fried food is king. This skews the results. That's southern, not black. If they were equally dispersed, that BS study would show something completely different, unless they still consumed the same diet due to culture or having migrated elsewhere, but keeping the same traditions. White people in the south are on the same diet.

Oh Bull shit, this poster is trying to twang our magic twangier frog----- Buster Brown program in the late 1950's.

This dude is doing their best to get us to make raciest remarks, and use them to prove Conservatives are raciest.

So has he mentioned the number of Irish children with red hair, the fact that the Brits have less then perfect teeth. He is fixated on the bodies of black men,    Get a clue????

I think you're wrong, Vesta.  I don't think Cyrus is anything more than an Iranian who is interested in American culture.  If I'm wrong, I'm wrong.
