Personally, i'm tired of hearing the word "racist". Any black person that blames their problems on me or racism can go fuck themselves. There is absolutely nothing stopping anyone from NOT picking up a gun and shooting someone, from NOT stealing, from NOT going to prison multiple times, from NOT running out on a child/pregnant girl, from NOT breaking the law and from NOT working hard, making good choices and busting your ass for what you want.

i got his point. that's my point. him and others like him simply convolute issues. one thing has nothing to do with the other and the argument of trying to emphasis one issue by de-emphasising resolving another issue is simply wrong. the fact is that the symbolism behind the flag is an entirely different matter from black on black problems.
