I apologize. I meant to say "simian-americans". :rolleyes:
I was going off the fact that the distinction between black people and ni**ers was already made in this thread. I hate to pull the "I\'ve got a lot of black friends" thing, but I do. I have a studio, and produce hip-hop tracks for some local guys. They\'re real cool people, and would NEVER act like those assholes did. They all have jobs, and they would never come back later to rob my studio. I could never imagine those cats acting like monkeys.
And let me qualify that, too. These pricks were actually jumping up and down in the theatre hooting, grunting and waving their arms around. No f*cking joke here. I was shocked, I thought "don\'t they know what they look like?"
So I do sincerely apologize to anyone I offended, but that\'s how I saw it. I wasn\'t calling any of the people here those things, and I never would. Even though we may have different ideas, I respect everyone here. I guess I just get tired of having shitty stuff happen to me caused by people like that.
Where I live is a nice neighborhood in the city. My apartment complex is expensive, so it\'s full of young doctors. Most of them work at the hospital on the "east side". Every week 4-5 cars get broken into for pocket change, and if they can\'t find any, they just litter our lot with whatever\'s in the car. We have it all on tape. Guess who? Yup. People just like the ones in the theatre. And when they end up shooting each other, who patches \'em up at taxpayer\'s expense? The doctors they stole from. Every crime ever comiited against me has been by people like that. 3 cars broken into, an apartment broken into in broad daylight, and 1 mugging. How am I supposed to feel?
I\'m not a "priveleged white kid" either. I grew up poor, on food stamps, no college, (couldn\'t afford it, and no financial aid, \'cos I\'m white. Thanks, affirmative action!) and I worked my way to where I am today, starting out cleaning toilets & ovens in apartments that my company owns. Now I\'m doing well, and I\'m sick of having my shit ruined by people like that.
