					<description><![CDATA[LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!!! @otherside.  You know what&#039;s funny, you read everything I wrote and only commented on those things you don&#039;t like. This is so typical.  I can have this same conversation with my grandmother and she wold wholeheartedly agree with everything I say.  This is how I know there are class distinctions at play when it comes to black people.  Sorry to tell you otherside but most of these black people are slaves.  They are and it doesn&#039;t hurt me anymore because I stopped identifying with their niggerish behavior.  I would rather identify with the black kid who scored a perfect score on his SATs.  Are you telling me a so-called mother, who had children out-of-wedlock, is not responsible in anyway for a child who goes out here and murders some innocent person?  Only when we hold black women accountable does a controversy ensue amongst black people.  If I criticized black men only, then there would be no controversy.  Cosby is saying similar things and the only thing black people can say to him is &quot;he didn&#039;t criticize black people nicely.&quot;  Truth is not supposed to make you feel warm and fuzzy when you are being a heathen.  If this behavior is so good, then from now on, every black woman should tell black men how many men they have slept with in their careers and let&#039;s see how many black men stick around when the numbers is 20, or 30, or 40.  But you see, all black women hide this fact.  

Why?  Because deep down, even though people say people haven&#039;t been taught properly, women know deep down there is something unattractive about a woman who is regarded as a hoe.  A 13 year old girl fell to her death trying to keep her boyfriend from releasing a sex tape (damn 13 year olds with sex tape).  So if a 13 year old girl knows tries to prevent her sexual misdeeds from being revealed, then she knows she shouldn&#039;t be doing the shit.  So why does she do it?  Because when you have a group of men (black men) who won&#039;t hold these females accountable for their actions, then they feel their is no penalty for their prostitute ass behavior and you know it&#039;s prostitute behavior because these chicks wear the type of clothing hookers wear (tights, fishnets, hooker boots, etc).  But if i walked up to you and aksed you &quot;how much does it cost&quot; females will get offended.  But the bitch is wearing hooker clothing!!!!!  And gets offended by being propositioned for a tryst.  I remember when a dude I used to be cool with had this Somalian chick at his house that he had already had sex with and used to smoke weed with.  When I started talking about marrying honorable women, who weren&#039;t loose, she was shocked.  She said that &quot;we didn&#039;t know there were black people who thought like you did.&quot;  

I said &quot;there are plenty of men like me who hold similar values and views.  Don&#039;t just think because we grow up in America we agree with this filth.&quot;  And you know what happened?  This chick decided to go home and not smoke weed with my friend.  My words hit her hard because she allowed herself to be a baby mama because she started buying into the nigger shit in America, when her culture dictates her to be married and honorable.  There are people who believe that since we are considered black, that we agree with the nigger shit and judge &quot;us&quot; as all being the same.  But this chick found out I was the opposite and ran as soon as she heard my words because when I spoke, she heard her father and the men in her culture that hold her to a different standard.  I knew a Ethiopian chick who tried to date black men in my junior college years but said &quot;they didn&#039;t want to get married.&quot;  However she was wrong because when I had her number, she wanted to be a hoe because she bought into the American shit.  So she cleaned herself up and went back home and got married.  If you are not a virgin and never been married, it&#039;s hard for a woman to make the case to me as to why I should marry her.  Period.  I remember in 2008 a freshman at my college (a black young man) said &quot;if a woman is not about God, we don&#039;t have anything in common.&quot;  18 year olds have better sense than 35-40 year olds.  But like Pastor Manning says &quot;when I speak to you about not being honorable, you can&#039;t take what I&#039;m saying because you&#039;re not used to being held accountable for your actions.&quot;  

This is so true.  Liberal views on sexuality, womanhood, has turned the black woman into the national standard for whore behavior when years ago white women held that title.  At the end of the day, when you admit that your own men don&#039;t want to marry you, then you admit your own weakness as women and as an individual woman.  Marriage s not a race thing.  It&#039;s a personality thing as well as values things.  Most women want to marry a man to take his shit.  Or because it&#039;s a way to get material things.  They don&#039;t believe in adding value to a Man&#039;s life.  So why should a man marry you if you&#039;re selfish like that?  And that goes for any woman.  It&#039;s not a coincidence smart men are going east for wives.  It&#039;s not an accident that there are dating websites devoted to providing men wives whereas these american sites are devoted to women offering a one night stand.  I think I&#039;ll take marriage over a one night stand and I&#039;m a Man saying this.  So if you have women who value ine night stands, instead of marriage, then we have different values and our race is of no consequence.  I don&#039;t owe a black woman shit and neither does she owe me.  Leave that race shit in the past and make the case as an individual woman as to why a Man should want to be with you for life and for you to have his children.  That race shit is going down the drain and class is becoming more important now and with barack being in office has made the black man a much more attractive figure for all women, not just black women.  So black woman, I&#039;m trying to help you out for real.  Stop debating with &quot;us&quot; and start trying to coexist instead because your mouth and little emotionalisms don&#039;t matter anymore.  You think your sisters will be there for you when you&#039;re 50 with no husband?  You&#039;re gonna find yourself 50 year old roomates with one another while your men will be married with other women. 

 I don&#039;t see color in women anymore.  I just see woman.  If you fine and wholesome, then you have a chance with men like myself.  All your little emotional tirades and &quot;being down in the struggle&quot; soliloquies will not work in this new frame of time.  Intelligent Black people are tired of weak black people.  It&#039;s class warfare right now and I love it because I do not want any heathen niggers near me.  And by the way don&#039;t tell me I can&#039;t criticize.  Black people always trying to shut people up who speak the truth.  I can come on any site and say WTF I feel because I am my own man and unlike most pussy as black dudes on this site, I don&#039;t get scared when a black woman says boo!!!! lol.....  Black women have lost houses in this economy that has many of them and their families staying in shelters.  I left the Hawks game last week and on the corner, it was three black women outside, with their kids in the the strollers, in the cold, begging for money.  This is the future for many of you who are not commercially competent to stand on your own since you are so independent.  If you are independent, then that means you have your own banks, schools, hospitals, businesses.  How can you call yourself independent and don&#039;t own a business?  I own my own business that gives me the freedom to get on this site anytime i want and poke fun at you niggas.  

I don&#039;t have to punch no &quot;cracker&#039;s&quot; clock.  LOL!!!!  So in the end show and prove.  Sorry black people hide behind race when they can&#039;t compete with the rest of the world.  Black people showed more purpose, and usefulness in slavery, than they do as free people.  Murdering each other in the streets like it&#039;s sport.  Should have stayed on the plantation if that was the case.  But I do understand the infantile mentality I deal with when I speak the way I do.  Most black people respond like children when scolded for their low standards of behavior.  Sounds like too much liberalism and feminism in the tank.  But how has these theories made you wealthy?  How has feminism made any black woman wealthy?  Show me the businesses that feminism created.  Feminism has carved a path of destruction in this societ from baby mams, shot sons in the street, and teenage girls being strippers in clubs.  But I&#039;m harsh.  i didn&#039;t tell you stiupid idiots to be so garbage.  Feminism did and the notion of being &quot;free&#039; to do what you want to do.  But like they say, with freedom, comes many responsibilities.  So even though you say you&#039;re &quot;independent&quot; yet you still blame other people for low level of production (government, Bill Cosby, etc).  

So which one is it?  Either you are &quot;free&quot; and know what you are doing or you&#039;re incompetent, and need to shut the fuck up about what government is not doing for you, when you don&#039;t have the decency to at least do basic things other civilized people do (like don&#039;t be baby mamas).  You got people who say black women need help from their bad situations.  Other people don&#039;t ask for shit like black people and be irresponsible at the same time.  That&#039;s stupidity.  But black people justify it with &quot;but we were in chains so you have to give us a free pass.&quot;  Did your ancestors ask for a free pass or did they get to work.  Matter fact stop claiming those people as your ancestors because those people were winners in spite of their conditions.  You niggas are born losers in spite for your more favorable conditions.  It&#039;s not against the law for you to read yet you wanna be &quot;hood&quot; like that shit is attractive.  I saw college eudcated blacks embracing that hood niggas shit.  Girls walking around 8 in the morning going to class with hooker outfits on.  Who does that dumb shit?  I&#039;ll tell you who: losers.  But I&#039;m sure you niggas got some ready made excuse to justify your spiritual ineptitude.  2013 will not allow the nigga to justify his/her incompetence anymore  and use slavery as an excuse for it.  

Bill Cosby hit hard because he knows where &quot;our&quot; people came from and refuses to let these people be apart of that legacy.  If you don&#039;t want to be responsible that&#039;s cool.  But don&#039;t try to claim the ancestors who did more with less when you don&#039;t demonstrate the strength of character they displayed.  I say what i say about black people men and women included out of respect for the ancestors.  You think I give a fuck about niggas who can go to school and not have it against the law for them to read when ancestors could have been killed for attempting to read?  You must be crazier than I thought.  Black people suck because they choose to suck.  Don&#039;t tell me the white man has control over your minds because if you do then I&#039;m gonna say you&#039;re weak and I don&#039;t have time for weak ass niggas.  We have plenty of those already. 

 I&#039;m born in the same land as you and I&#039;m not weak.  I have the discipline to read the same banking books that affluent families do to stay in a pristine position economically.  When your economic policy as a woman is &quot;child support&quot; then I&#039;m gonna tell you and your heathen lineage to get the fuck out my way and don&#039;t talk to me about no black solidarity.]]></description>

1.	Ramses says:
January 16, 2013 at 2:42 pm
@OtherSide I have seen so many black mothers support their monstrous sons out here doing the most heinous things. Howver, I do leave room for women such as yourself who support men who turn out to be boys. And herein lies the problem. You have some demonic black women raising demonic children.(HIS MOTHER IS WHITE and he was raised by her and his half-white stepfather, whose mother was a white alcoholic).
 I was one of the few brothers coming up whose father raised him. Most of my friends coming up had some mothers who were let us say very challenged in their moral capacity. So many females end up like Rihanna and we are the ones who are expected to be healing agents as black men. (God saids a man that finds a wife finds a good thing;  many people seek healing for different reasons … if a woman needs healing, the man that finds her wont mind healing her if that is what is required and she might return the favor).  Most of the time, simply not being weak and willing to break down an emotional wall of protection is all that is required for “healing”.
However the wall that many black women put up is impenetrable. Understandably a wall is up. But the next man should not be expected to bring it down. I will admit to you that the black man is weak. My ex said years ago that black men have no standards and I agreed. But she was referring to black women when she made this statement.  Some black women have standards but I have learned that many do not.
I would agree with Terence that there is a sickness that peervades black people’s psyche but they better find a way to cure it. I suggest to black women myself, who are of sound mind (many are not but think they are) should not be beholden to these weak cowards and I mean it. Black men on this site don’t even respect strong men like myself speaking truth on here because the bitch in them will not allow them too. This is why I keep saying you have to really know people’s families because people come from some sub-par families out here and before I have to pull the tool out and lay a mofo family members out I choose not to deal with these degenerates. It’s gotten that bad. My grandfather told my grandmother back in the day that he believed “the enemy would penetrate our family.” He didn’t say white people. He was talking about niggerish blacks. (I had many of my child’s father family members in my home …including his mother who has chosen to forego relations with her grandchild…possibly a blessing in disguise. Agreed – get the squares out ur circle.)
People used to say my family was uppity because we had standards. These were black people. But you really wanna know what it was? It was jealousy because our family had a standard about themselves and they knew their family didn’t. There is a lot of poor black trash out here, even if they have money. (All equal in God’ eyes; different people have different standards … I am sure your family’s standard might not work on the ‘other side of town’.)  
How many black women out here carry themselves with the elegance and grace of a Michelle Obama? There are men who carry themselves with sphistication like Barack, but a lot of times they don’t get respect. A friend of mine told me that he already has 4 instances in 2013 in which black women have all disrepsected him on some blatant shit. 
(My mother had her hip replaced; a Black man sitting in his car told my mother he was waiting on riding cart.  As graceful as she is, she said fine and waited for the next.  A cab driver in Vegas was getting read when he let a white man interrupt our discussion to let him know he needed to shut up and get driving.  He chose to relay a story of how he is unable to see his 2yo son because he cannot deal with the mother … weak.)
He says that sometimes he imagines a woman coming up to him and just embracing him with a heartfelt hug like some shit you would see in the movies. It’s that sad out here. Now I’m not telling you to run out here to a white dude at all. There are some black women who think running to a white man will solve all of their problems and are sadly mistaken and end up bringing their sorry behinds back to black men (I dated a white guy with blue eyes and a penchant for black women with a racist mama.  He met a Colombian that looked like me (light skin with curly coils)and went gaga and cheated on me.  His father died and they were alcoholics.  He has 3 kids now, one with autism. Hawaiian blue eyes was most sensitive one night stand ever in Vegas no less, so I am equal opportunist... not a race issue, addiction seems to be the core issue in most failed relationships). 
I myself am open to white women, of a certain quality???, but that’s not my default pick. Other women interest me instead based on their culture. However, if a white man comes your way, and is willing to honor you, and you two vibe with one another, I say go for it. I’d be the first to tell you that you don’t owe black men the opportunity to stomp on your face along racial lines. I never would have said this in 2008. But love trumps race all day long. In my opinion, most black women do not offer what I am looking for and that’s not the end of the world. (narcissist? … )
Nature dictates you adapt to your surroundings to survive and I have chosen to do so. I will not sit here and say black women are less attractive than any other women because all groups of women have pretty women and ugly women. However, personality wise, this is where the separation comes into play for me. I want to be with someone I genuinely like. I don’t know what your personality is like so I am not directing this towards you. But the ones I’ve come across have not been lovable and I’m a very loving man. I’m very mature enough to give love and have always. Most black women are not mature enough to receive it. Most mistake lust lust for love. Love is actually being willing to tell you about yourself when others won’t. (Love is patient love is kind…what have these Black women shown you? That is what I show ….Rihanna says it best to me in shot a man down when she asks what was she to do when she was disrespected in such a way but to reach for her protection from continual victimization.)
Most black men on here who come off as if they really love black women really don’t because a lot of them feel the same way I feel and know much of what I say is true about black women in general. But because they want to get in your drawls first, instead of teach, they attack me to make themselves look strong in the eyes of black women which is why so many black women won’t change because too many black men are saying there is nothing wrong with black women (because they are only looking at them as sexual objects). Most of them are scared to tell you how they really think of you because some don’t want to hurt black women feelings. But what I say should not hurt feelings because it’s not about feelings. What I speak of goes to your ego.nar
Many black women mistake feelings for ego. When they see a black man with a white woman, and gives him a scowl, what is that? Ego.  (((No ego; lack of self-esteem and outright jealousy.
If she really loved the brother and saw that he was happy and just happened to be with a white girl, then she should be happy. I don’t see black women with white men and mean mug them. If she’s happy then cool. Better her be hapy with him than make my life miserable. The black man is a walking credit card.  (Several of the men I have been involved with were broke opportunists.)
He can go anywhere on the planet and find a wife. So my options will never be limited unless I limit them myself. A friend of mine told this black chick he knows that he’s closed the door on black women and she begged him not to do it. Why – once less fool …
It terrified her when he said this because this cat has been in every black organization you can imagine (Nuwabians, Nation of Islam, Moorish Science Temple of America, 5 Percenters). Organizations or cults?
Even black people are tired of black peoples excuse making. It’s tired and old. Rihanna’s situation proves that black women like abuse, for the most part. Now I don’t know why they got back together. COuld be for publicity. All I know is that negro beat the brakes off of her and I can only deduce to things occurred. One, Rihanna did something that was so reprehensible, she felt compelled to be with him because she ultimately knew she was at fault. Or, she likes being with abusers. Or it could be both. In the end, all of it’s garbage because i always say this: if you have to put your hands on a woman, to keep her in line, then that’s not the woman for you as a man if you are a man. There are some dudes who are abusers and they are not men to me. I’m talking about real men. Please send me the template to understand which is which, because I do want to avoid these dudes parading as men.  She is trying to forgive him publicly so she is recused of being responsible for his demise … twisted system of domestic violence cycle where the victim has to own the forgiveness so that victim can move forward loving herself and feeling complete whether he is there in the end or not.  
I’ve seen black women in my lifetime who push you more towards the end of abuse than not. I don’t care what’s your background. When any woman deals with me, respect is first and foremost and there is no compromising on that at all. I don’t have time being a woman’s personal psychiatrist. That drains energy like you would never believe. I really don’t know what to tell black people at this point. I don’t have any answers for them collectively. I see a train wreck coming and I chose to jump off. I go out my way to not have any conversation with black women because I don’t want any confrontation with them. Then why are you commenting ad nauseum?
Because I know me and that disrespectful tone that comes natural with them has ran its course with me. Might have been cute at 16, but when you’re in your thirties, not so much. Black women would be surprised at how far kindness would actually go with black men, but too many are too in love with their ego. Not saying you @other-side but many of your female counterparts are. It saddens me that you had to go through such a horrfying experience and I do hope that you allow yourself to heal and find happiness in the future if you haven’t already. A friend of mine said to me that you would rather lose your ego for someone you love than lose someone because of your ego. This would be very wise for black women to take note of.  My lesson was you can lose your ego, but if in doing so you are actually idolizing another, you are putting that before God and yourself, so that can never work anyway.  When you both love God the most, neither would dare hurt the other for fear of God’s correction.  
As for me, I;m not just interested in what someone’s personlaity is like. I want to know what their family is like. I ask questions thoroughly. And if your family is just all screwed up all around, then chances are you will be too. I have a family legacy to protect, and that trumps racial notions. I will not bring any heathen black people into my family destroying the fabric my grandfather and mother worked so hard to construct. It ain’t happening on my watch. Once a woman is my wife, she is my family, especially when we have children. If she is white, who cares. As long as she can give me some beautiful children inside and out then that is all that matters. What if they are ugly outside?  I thought my family’s reputation was pristine, but learned a lot.  This is not a black white issue ripping at the seams of our families – it is drugs and alcohol.
i don’t have the time nor patience trying to elevate the minds of women who want to have babies by mexicans and white men because their kids come out pretty like a dark skin black chick said to me and some friends years ago at Clark-Atlanta. Yes a black chick at an all black school was saying this!!! Ironic indeed. Every individual person has to find out who they are first before they make any demands on others as to who they should be. I don’t try to change black women anymore because they are free (for now) to be who they are. I decided to change me, which was a whole lot easier. Instead of me getting angry at them for being a certain way, I opened up my possibilities in terms of suitable mates. My Creator would not put me here on this planet and leave me without the possibility of a wife. That would be cruel indeed. My Creator is not cruel. In my lifetime, majoirty of my conflicts have been with black people, not whites. I have had plenty of whites open doors for me when blacks gladly shut the door in my face. Black people will never get me on that black shit. Never. I love myself too much to reject love based on sill, outdated (and unscientific) modes of racial superority. Cheik Anta Diop (a scientist) in “Civilization of Barbarism” stated there is no superiority in the tones of skin. One is more conducive to certain climates as well as the other. Difference doesn’t mean superiority or inferiority. The real matrix out here is the black/white paradigm. Last time I checked, Condoleeza and George Bush worked well together. And they even named an aircraft carrier after her I think. I’m about winning first. I am not about believing in tired 20th century concepts. For those that do, then they will stay in the 20th century. Exactly where they belong. “Get Rich or Die Trying” … and there is even a picture where it looks like he is kissing her on the cheek at a ground-breaking while his wife’s back is turned… a lot like the image of the slave sucking the master’s phallus in the portrait that was removed from that museum.  SHE IS NOT NOR WILL EVER BE HIS WIFE.  AND IT WILL TAKE ANOTHER MILLENIUM FOR A MIXED RACE COUPLE TO BE IN THE WHITE HOUSE.  And that is the truth that you should take into account when you look at continuing your great family legacy.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Black people don&#039;t realize the  connection between spirituality and economics.  When you have a group of people who are known to hate themselves and each other, how will they invest in each other?  White supremacy does not exist at all because Asians are showing  that when you have pride, and strong families, you can compete with anybody.  You&#039;ll don&#039;t think Chinese people were beat up by caucasians?  Look at some of those old Warner Bros. cartoons and you will see how much Chinese people were disrespected by whites.  And that goes for Indians and other people as well.  Black people need to stop thinking that they have a monopoly on pain.  Black Wallstreet was bombed no doubt.  But Japan was nuked.  Which was worse.  I would think the nuke was worse in terms of comparison.  Black people should have had their own militias to protect themselves back then.  That was our fault.  It&#039;s not like we couldn&#039;t own guns back then.  I was reading this book where this black woman was talking about what her daughter might possibly do as a career and someone suggested she go into advertising or entertainment.  The black woman responded &quot;my daughter is not going into that. we have enough black women singing and entertaining.  we need black professionals.&quot;  Black people you are a gullible people, just like your African ancestors back in the day.  You believe anything the white man says to you.  The key to white supremacy is to get you not to believe in yourself so you won&#039;t compete.  When you don&#039;t compete, it gives the illusion that white people are superior when the reality is, they just compete and you just sit on your hands.  Black people talk this hate whitey or hate this cracker shit but the truth is, if white people disappeared right now, niggas would not know what to do.  You can&#039;t build hospitals, you can&#039;t farm, don&#039;t know banking, don&#039;t grow any food, don&#039;t have any schools, and hell don&#039;t even know how to get married!!! Lol....I mean we are not talking about children on here are we?  We are referring to adults.  We have to break down the most simple things like self-reliance and marriage?  We have to teach black people that business is important?  For all you black people who hate whitey or Republicans, I can guarantee most of you are probably employed by both.  You probably work for a company that is owned by someone who is white who votes republican.  How ironic is that?  Lol....  And that goes for black men and women.  If you really didn&#039;t like being under the yolk of white men, then you would embrace the notion of business but most of you don&#039;t because as the brother has stated on here you don&#039;t put your money together and invest.  You are a irresponsible group of people who make successful black people feel bad because they won&#039;t give you any of their money.  &quot;Well the problem is that when black people get money, they don&#039;t come back and uplift the community.&quot;  WTF?  What community?  Baby mamas?  I&#039;m not helping anyone who doesn&#039;t help themselves. Black people have said for years &quot;God helps those who help themselves.&quot;  That sounds good to me.  You have a group of women who prance around in the most objectionable clothing you would ever see.  The average black woman dresses like a prostitute.  The average black man is a thug.  What the hell is there to invest in?  If you&#039;re morally bankrupt, chances are you will be economically bankrupt.  And for all you black people who think I&#039;m harsh go read your Bibles.  Since you&#039;ll like to play with religion so much open it up.  God wipes out when the people are so filthy that even he can&#039;t clean them.  There are passages in the Bible where even God says he&#039;s hurt.  You know how wretched you have to be as a people for God to say he&#039;s hurt by what you are?  That&#039;s why Bill Cosby spoke the way he spoke because when he speaks, he&#039;s speaking with God in mind.  When we speak from scripture, God speaks through us.  And if black people have a problem with that, then let them stay in their atheist categories and stop fronting like they are so holy when they are not.  I&#039;m not trying to marry a woman who has screwed the whole football team, but now sees the errors in her ways.  Why you didn&#039;t see it beforehand?  When you have 13 year old girls falling to their deaths because they are begging their boyfriends not to release a sex tape, you know you are dealing with heathens and I do not feel sorry for them.  If their own families don&#039;t then why should I.  You people think that because you live in America, and it allows you to be morally bankrupt, it&#039;s ok to do so.  No it&#039;s not.  But what&#039;s sad is, when people like myself, or Bill Cosby speaks truth, you&#039;ll say we are being harsh.  I haven&#039;t gone into the streets and blew a black man&#039;s brain out.  That&#039;s harsh and cruel.  I say the things that hopefully will keep someone from doing the shit.  I lost a close cousin years ago when some coward shot him in the back.  You think I wanted to show mercy to that nigga?  Hell nah and he was black.  I wanted to bury him.  I don&#039;t care what your color is when you hurt mine.  Niggas want to get away with hurting you because they black like you.  What kind of logic is that.  &quot;Well black people got problems but we can&#039;t leave the brothers and sisters behind.&quot;  Shiiiiiit.  These niggers aren&#039;t my brothers and sisters because they definitely don&#039;t live like they understand brotherhood or sisterhood.  How can you be worthless yet complain about what you don&#039;t have?  You have so-called scholars who make a living off of writing about the pathologies of black people.  What kind of profession is that to have?  How can you make any real money writing articles about the stupidity of a people?  That&#039;s some dumb shit.  I don&#039;t care if you can prove to me that black people&#039;s problems stem from slavery.  I don&#039;t give a shit no more than I give a shit about the Irish being criminals because the Brits stomped them years ago.  WTF are you doing now is the only important thing because last time I checked, none of you niggas had your babies snatched from your arms, or killed in front of you.  It&#039;s reprehensible that a group of people would try to justify their stupidity (and baby mamas are stupid) and low moral fiber on the pain of people who lived before them when these people responded to that situation by building.  How can you do that?  Like Pastor Manning says &quot;you have no honor.&quot;  You would use the dead souls of those people to justify your ineptitude?  You bastards should be ashamed of  yourselves.  You got black women selling ass on the internet when she could be married to plenty of single black men.  Selling ass is better than marriage?  Collecting child support is better than being a wife?  Black women married broke black men after slavery so don&#039;t give me that &quot;oh he don&#039;t have enough money for me&quot; shit.  Child support is nothing but legalized prostitution.  If it was up to me I&#039;d let these fuckers starve.  Kids included.  The same kids who will go out here and blow your brains out?  Please.  You think God didn&#039;t know the hearts of the kids in Sodom and Gomorrah when he destroyed it?  I have come across black people&#039;s kids who I wanted to choke the life out of.  This one black chick i was dealing with son was so weak I couldn&#039;t stand being around the fucker.  I mean a spoiled crybaby ass lil nigga.  Greedy as fuck and sorry as shit.  Ponk ass nigga just like his weak ass dad.  I fought to hard on this planet for my existence to allow some group of people to tell me that &quot;we&quot; are weak because of slavery.  You niggas must be out your cotton picking minds for real.  You niggas cower to the challenges of life while I welcome them.  That&#039;s why niggas get on my nerves.  They don&#039;t show that they want to exist.  They are cool with just getting by.  When a bitch wants to collect child support, it means she wants to just get by. When he sells drugs, it means he just wants to get by.  These out of control women are flooding the market with junk bonds (bastard children) that they can&#039;t provide for.  And then unleashing them on unsuspecting black people who think along racial lines in terms of loyalty.  2013 is a new year and calls for a new way of thinking.  Me and my family used to watch The Cosby Show every thursday and I have more in common with him than I do with you excuse making niggas who try to justify baby mamahood because many of your mothers were loose as a goose in the streets.  But be the same weak ass men who will hate your father for not being around.  But you never ask your mothers why wasn&#039;t she married to your father when she gave birth to you.  I can look on my birth certificate and see my mother and father with the same last name.  That means something to me.  Damn would you rather be a bastard as opposed to knowing your father?  You ok with your mama being so selfish she ran your father away and commenced to abuse you mentally, sometime physically for 18 years?  You mean to tell me a grown WOman does not know the consequences of having a child out of wedlock in 2013?  How many baby mamas black peopleneed to see before they realize the policy of bastard kids ain&#039;t working?  Crimes got so bad in the 90&#039;s, they started charging black kids as adults because of all the armed robberies and murders.  I didn&#039;t realize that the 500 murders in Chicago in 2012 was believe the average of 900 that existed in the 90&#039;s.  You average 900 murfders a year as a city where you have black leadership and you have the nerve to talk about Obama?  Get the fuck outta here with that bullshit.  Barack is not the reason why you niggas ain&#039;t shit.  You niggas are the reason why you niggas ain&#039;t shit and go home and hold your mama accountable first before you check anyone else because it was her personal policies as a woman that kept you from having a traditional family, not government.  The US government is not preventing black women from being honorable, chaste women.  Black women and their lack of a moral center keeps them poor and their chidren poor.  You don&#039;t love your children enough to enter into a union with a man before you let him skeet in you?  What kind of woman does this?  A real woman will not do this.  Michelle Obama didn&#039;t.  I&#039;ll be the first one to say don&#039;t let any sorry nigga get you pregnant black woman.  I don&#039;t defend no weak ass black men because I despise them niggas, but what I do have a problem with when the majority of you (80-90%) have kids with them and then judge all black men as being sorry when they don&#039;t produce for you when it&#039;s you the one that&#039;s sorry for not screening them properly.  You&#039;re the ones who go ut here irresponsibly, have babies, and then embarrass yourselves in court begging fro child support from a nigga who never showed any initiative in the first place to do anything.  This is absolute stupidity.  Or in some instances game ran by women who use a system to be lazy and not work.  So you have women who are willing to sacrifice their children for a child support check basically.  You will gladly keep a man away so you can get a check.  So you want a man&#039;s money, but you don&#039;t want his authority?  If you&#039;re so Independent, then work bitch.  But you can&#039;t cause you&#039;re lazy and sorry.  And this is what Bill Cosby is referring to when he questions a woman who has 8 kids by 8 different men.  You have some women who collect multiple child support checks from multiple men and are not embarrassed by it.  I would love to see a black person come up with a plan that will solve this shit because I don&#039;t see this shit changing.  Cosby is tired like so many of us with this niggas shit and that&#039;s why I look to other shores to put my seeds in because I will not be in court behind something that comes from me biologically.  I ain&#039;t with that shit.  Any black woman that puts a man on child support is a devil to me because according to their own words &quot;they are independent and don&#039;t need a man.&quot;  And if this is true, then take care of your child bitch.  But you can&#039;t because deep down you really do need a man but are not woman enough coexist with a man without him wanting to stick his boot up your ass because of your disrespect yet you get upset when he gets a white woman who submits to his authority.  Well it&#039;s a whole lot of other women out here you have to worry about getting your black man besides a white woman let me tell ya.  And black man stop being a ponk.  In 2006, I asked this 18 year old black girl do black women, in a general sense respect black men and she emphatically said &quot;hell no.&quot;  This girl was 18 saying this.  Yet you get mad at Bill Cosby because it&#039;s a man checking you and we all know that the black commnity does not respect strong black men.  They have a history showing this.  When dudes get offended by shit I say or men like Cosby or Pastor Manning, I say &quot;it&#039;s not the man in you that has a problem with what I&#039;m saying, it&#039;s the bitch in you.&quot;  Too many black men have a bitch in them programmed by their mother which is why they go out into the streets emotionally and blow each other&#039;s brains out because of this emotional program that&#039;s why you need a Man around you telling you to suck it up when you experience pain.  It&#039;s ok for your mother to put a band aid on you when you&#039;re three.  But when you&#039;re 15 and she&#039;s still kissing your boo boos, then you will be no goood for any woman out here who needs guidance from a strong man.  What kind of woman wants a weak ass man leading her.  Oh I forgot, the black woman!!!  LOL.  No other group of people has their sons killing each other the way black sons do.  Killing each other because the are programmed to be emotional wrecks, just like their mothers.  This is why you can&#039;t get any money because when you have this level of psychosis, nothing positive could ever get accomplished.  And Marcus I meant what I said]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Black people don&#8217;t realize the  connection between spirituality and economics.  When you have a group of people who are known to hate themselves and each other, how will they invest in each other?  White supremacy does not exist at all because Asians are showing  that when you have pride, and strong families, you can compete with anybody.  You&#8217;ll don&#8217;t think Chinese people were beat up by caucasians?  Look at some of those old Warner Bros. cartoons and you will see how much Chinese people were disrespected by whites.  And that goes for Indians and other people as well.  Black people need to stop thinking that they have a monopoly on pain.  Black Wallstreet was bombed no doubt.  But Japan was nuked.  Which was worse.  I would think the nuke was worse in terms of comparison.  Black people should have had their own militias to protect themselves back then.  That was our fault.  It&#8217;s not like we couldn&#8217;t own guns back then.  I was reading this book where this black woman was talking about what her daughter might possibly do as a career and someone suggested she go into advertising or entertainment.

Images of any consumer market segment should be refreshed at least annually using the new census results. But this is an imperative for marketers trying to reach Black consumers especially because their portrayal in the entertainment media is so often not who they really are.
Here are 10 facts from the 2010 Census about Blacks in the United States that may surprise you:
1.More than 1 in 8 U.S. consumers is Black, totaling 42 million (some identified as both Black and another race).
2.Their growth is well above average—up 15.4 percent vs. 9.7 percent total population rise since 2000.
3.Black consumers are younger: Their median age is 32.4 years vs. a U.S median of 37.2.
4.A larger fraction of Black adults (35 percent) are Millennials than the 30 percent U.S. average.
5.Of Black householders, 44 percent are younger than age 45 vs. 38 percent of all householders.
6.Census 2010 counted 14.1 million Black households, second only to White households.
7.Since 2000, the number of Black households grew faster (up 17.2 percent) than the U.S average of 10.7 percent.
8.Seventy-five percent of Black consumers live in the nation’s top 100 metropolitan areas vs. 66 percent all consumers.
9.The Black consumer populations grew most rapidly in the South and West, up 18 percent in those areas since 2000.
10.Fifty-five percent of Black consumers now live in the South, where they are 1 in 5 consumers.

Black Americans are a very important component of the U.S. consumer marketplace for several reasons. They are younger than the total population, and more of them are in their prime household formation and heavy consumer spending years. Blacks also have been increasing most rapidly in major metropolitan areas and in the South and West regions where jobs are expanding and economic activity is rising.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Ujima – Collective work and responsibility – 

It’s a disgrace to our ancestor’s sacrifices that we (community activists, stakeholders, religious and political leaders) continue to overlook this most important Kwanzaa component due to individual’s cowardice and self-centered mentality in our community.  

We continue to talk about our individual’s achievements or failures in life. We are great talkers about nothing (the white man, African American male/female blame game and what we should or wouldn’t do as a people).

We fail as a community to unite for one common goal; that is why we continue to fail as a people. We lack courage to collectively fight together to change our blighted condition. Regardless of the fact we have the available resources in our communities (270,000 plus African Americans spending billions of dollars plus in Jacksonville annually).  The number one crime in the African American community is Apathy. The lack of concern for education, healthcare prevention, entrepreneurship (that pay more than a living wages to the Executive Director – too many Non-Profits hustling off the pathologies in the African American family).

If we would only embrace education, healthcare and economic prosperity like we embrace a chicken wing, fake hair, 50” big screen TV’s, Red Lobster on Friday or use that self-inflicted fear energy most have for the white man, we could change our condition within 3 to 5 years. 

The correlation of those collective goals (life education, healthcare prevention and generational economics) will have an impact on decreasing crime, single- parent female households, divorce rate and a major impact in developing personal and community self-respect and develop a progressive positive value system among our youths.

Negroes,  when will you stop talking, put your personal self-serving agenda on hold, stop wearing your feelings on your shoulders and come together without worry about who or whom will get the credit, call me. 

For now, as my son says “he and I are not feeling you’re Real Talk BS”. 

Happy New Year to all makes it count for humanity especially for African Americans.
