    Don't tell me racism don't exist cause you would be ignorant to say that it doesn't. There are people in power right now who have admitted to being racist cause of stupid stereotypes. An owner out here said he wouldn't hire no blacks to work at his company no matter how qualified they were. The irony is his nephew tape recorded his azz.

    You have nothing to back this up. Which leads me to believe you're simply making an assumption. Why are you making this assumption?

    I never said that black people are hated because they are black. I said being black makes it easier for people to hate them. This thread is a prime example. Someone could make a thread saying spewing all sorts of racist and mean spirited things about blacks and they wouldn't be criticised as much as I am in this thread. Keep in mind that nothing I said has been mean spirited and I haven't even made any accusations racism.

    You wasted your time this overly long post that is barely relevant to my point. Never did I mention anything about being opressed or held back. Here is my point again, people in general do not empathize as well with people outside or their race as they do with people within their race. This generally leads to people having a more negative viewpoint of people outside of their race than within. Does that mean that we're all a bunch of hardcore racists that hate eachother? Of course not. However, that does not stop us from having our racial bias. Mayweather's race does indeed play a role in how he is viewed.

    That's the problem with you and many others who have jumped down my throat. You view everything to the extreme. Me pointing out that racial bias does exist and has negativley impacted the image of the black athlete has somehow become equivlant to me making widespread accusations of racism. That's not the case.

    Of course people are racist.

    And...

    Is this anything new? His mother ****in JOB is to box. If he ain't gonna box, then what the **** is his JOB?

    I mean, you talk all that **** sayin your gonna fight Pac or Martinez...and then you don't fight.

    Now it's because of racism...etc....

    And?

    Is he that scared he's gonna lose? I mean, what the **** happened to his balls? All the other athletes subjected to racism....PERFORM. They don't cry about it.

    They do their job and earn their paycheck.

    If he don't wanna fight Manny, then appologize to fans for sayin you WOULD and that's the end of it.

    PERIOD.

    Being black makes it easier for whites to perceive you as a dick. Guys like LeBron, T.O, and even Michael Vick, are much better received within the black community than they are the white community. There's a reason for this. I lay most of it on the racial history between blacks and whites along with cultural differences.

    Why the **** are ya'll arguin about this? Of course some people are racist...

    That's LIFE.

    You gotta learn to accept that **** and move on. You think Johnson stayed in bed like a coward when you had ALMOST ALL THE WHITE people in the US hatin him?

    No, he got up for it and whupped some ass.

    And that was RACISM. I mean, that was SERIOUS RACISM.

    So why the **** is this dude cryin?

    Should I just stay home because people are racist at work?

    Come on...

    QUIT MAKIN EXCUSES and FIGHT.
