Nah.

...you do realize that people went without paychecks for a month right?

Bro, what are you even talking about?  And, no, the previous commenter with actual experience on the issue is not “missing the point.”  You’re just deadset on pushing your point even when it falls apart in the face of reality.  In homes for emotionally disturbed kids, even if they don’t have cops on staff, the staff…

“After that, there were some nights when I went out into black areas in the city looking to be set upon so I could unleash physical violence”

yeah, except we been waiting for that change since the mid-20th Century, at the very least. 

I just don’t understand the ingratitude. I take this woman off the streets, bring her into my house, put a roof over her head, (and a bed, if family is coming over), threaten to harm her if she tries to escape, and all she did was complain that she wanted to leave and then ran off to a neighbor’s house while I wasn’t…

I want you to come back to our Dance Party in about five minutes. In honor of the First Friday of Black History Month, I’ve included a segment with James Baldwin getting interviewed about being black in America. He tells the story of how the discrimination is different when one is “up north” instead of “down south”,…

“The Salvation Army had initially gotten a request for housing but soon learned that Payne and her team had taken care of those who’d been displaced.”

She was smart to reject that ride because he either would have killed her or tried to extort her into sexual favors to get the car back. A cop tried that shit on my sister when she was in college and got pulled over late at night.

From a grey in this thread...

I was not a ladies’ man by any means in this era, but James Ingram and Peabo Bryson made me feel like there was hope. They put romance into plain words without the bravado of rap that I could not pull off. Thanks.

No lie, I was talking to a dude in line at the store last week who is a professional therapist and in the middle of the conversation, he was like “Man, you seem like you the type to hold grudges....” and will all the seriousness in me, I looked back at him and said “and you don’t?!?! That’s on you. How will I know…

“He just sat in here and watched basketball all day,”

If you can’t take a women seriously because she knows how to shake what her mama gave her, and maybe enjoys doing so... that’s not a shortcoming on her part.

I didn’t realize we should vote for presidents we wanted to date...

No, I remember Chappelle and Brennan’s writing in the sketch exactly the way he explained it. Dave’s joking intro and outro was kinda like, “ None of us can believe Kelly is so flagrant yet hasn’t been caught up!”

You are wrong. Statutory rape is a strict liability crime. That means it doesn’t matter whether the adult knew the age of the victim or not. All that matters is whether sexual activities happened with a minor. Knowledge of age can be taken into consideration during sentencing.

Hair volume may not exceed 2 inches away from the head? So...no natural hair at all, then? 

You gotta learn to spot the “anything not explicitly pro-israel is anti-semitism” crowd. It’s a waste of time pointing out that there is actually no evidence to support their position.

C’mon! Is this the same White House where JFK screwed anything walking, where Nixon planned his dirty tricks, where Betty Ford was an alcoholic and where Reagan so famously “didn’t recall” for YEARS before finally claiming Alzheimer’s when he was safely out of office?! Oh, how quickly we forget...
