True ... she probably has no idea who the dad even is ... lol ... I saw this black 14 year old girl on an episode of Maury the other day ... she was trying to get pregnant ... and Maury asked her "Who will pay for all of the things the baby will need?" and the girl looked at the audience and said "your tax dollars will, because my ass is goin' on Welfare" LOL the black population at its finest.
Also, 12:34, I didn't think you were being a bitch. You're the first person to actually ask a question instead of just yelling about how I'm going to hell.
omg isnt 919 a north carolina area code? since when does nc have a fucking bronx? they dont even have a ghetto. the worst part is probably durham and that isnt even half as bad as LA. the people in north carolina crack me up.
yeah it is students who need to care but i think they dont care because no one else does. they dont care about their future because nobody cares about them. at least thats what i see.
12:34, it's not that I think I'm better than anyone, it's just that it pisses me off that hardworking people, mexicans and blacks included, have to pay for people on welfare, which you have to admit is abused, mostly by blacks.
1:48 while that is true. It does NOT make it impossible. It is wrong that it is more difficult for them to succed, however it is not impossible. Also if you notice you see how noone cares, not the students, the parents, the teachers. However if you have someone in that system who really has the ambition and desire to succed, they will. Its not as easy but they will.They need to make it fairer but it is not impossible and a lot of if is just hopelessness.
12:37 No, I wasn't forced to finish school, but I was forced to work in order to pay our family's bills and forced to take college classes on top of that because they were free.
All you racist posters: people like you are responsible for the disadvantages non-white people face because of your constant perpetuation of stereotypes. You don't know what the fuck you're talking about. You're just a bunch of ignorant privileged dumbasses.
1:27, it's that exact mindset that is causing so many problems today. If a kid in the projects wants to make something of themselves, then they can pay attention and get a good education at their shitty school and make something of themselves. It's their choice.
11:37, my point is that you're an uneducated dumbass who does nothing all day and collects welfare. And belittleing someone doesn't make me feel empowered, it's just easy with you.
12:25, I know not everyone can handle it. I wouldn't have if I hadn't been forced.
12:26, I may have known what the person meant, but the correction can still be made. I already said I'm a racist, so you aren't hurting my feelings.
2:19, I agree, things could be better, but now minorities are given more opportunities than white people because all white people are apparently racist, but they don't realize that in doing so, they themselves are being racist. It's just all really ridiculous
I mean, there are white-trash bitches who would say the exact same thing to their filthy kids, but they live in the white version of the PJs. Trailer parks. Headin' for the Bronx Zoo? That's a black woman.
2:04- I know that, but sometimes it can help if someone shows that they care. I was luck enough to go to a very good public school and even there a ton of people didn't care at all about education. We were one of the 100 best public schools in the country, and about a third of my class didn't even graduate. Kids in general don't care about school unless they have a reason to, and sometimes, a good teacher can be that reason.
This is 2009, so please grow up and stop acting like ignorant children. You cannot judge people by stereotypes because they take the humanity out of people. Please respect the basic human rights that every single person deserves, and if you don't, at least keep it to yourself.
11:19.
Yes, I am BLACK AND white. & because i'm black doesn't mean I can't "spell the most elementary of words and lack proper use of grammar". There are plenty of ppl of other races who can't either. so get that bullshit out of here. & your dumbass is probably referring to the "balck" & the " for you to say that make you ignorant". Have you ever heard of a typing error? That's what I thought, obnoxious fuck
lol, 12:09, I did curse. I didn't ridicule you, just asked you if cursing made you feel empowered. And no, I don't feel empowered 'not' that I've done that lol
lol, it's funny to see that people can get so upset over something. I'm not on a high horse, just pointing out facts. I never said I was a beter human. I already admitted that I was a racist, so way to go, asshole. I'm not defensive at all and my argument isn't invalid. and 11:54, I went to public school like plenty of other people and walked to get there. How does that require providing from my family?
2:12 I know what you are talking about but like when I was in the project schools it was a higher percentage. I didn't finish high school there but finished in a pretty good suburban school and even there, you had those who didn't care. That is why it really depends on the students desire to succed.
11:59- It's not just about going to a certain school... chances are you went to a better public school than many people have a chance to go to. And you probably had a (somwhat) stable family. Also, I'm guessing that, if you worked in high school, you didn't have to work at all to support your family and some people are forced to do that just so they can survive. I imagine it would be hard to succeed in school in that kind of situation
Its funny how much one or two trolls can wreak havoc on a thread. Its obvious that no intelligent person can be that racist; so he/she is either kidding or is extremely unintelligent.
12:02 This is 11:19 & 11:57...Sorry, Lol. I'm a she too.
11:59 whoa! Did you just curse? HA, that seems to be the same cursing you ridiculed me for. Do you feel empowered not that you've called someone an asshole?
My family's from the Bronx and I have to agree with the woman! The shit's expensive at the Bronx Zoo!!! Can someone with a minimum wage job afford to buy her toddler a $40 stuffed animal in a recession? Sorry kid!!!
HAHA, delivery could have been nicer though!
First off, I am considered white and I make a shitload of spelling/grammar mistakes. But, according to your logic, I am neither ignorant nor uneducated right? Because I am not black.
Hi 11:41 here, lemme rephrase what i said earlier, juuust to clarify
"Hey 11:19, i bet that 11:10 DIDN'T go back and read what he said 20397 times just to make sure that he spelled everything right like you did (because if you DIDN'T, you would have lookked like a damn moron), get a life you racist fucking prick, burn in hell"
Im a "she" btw 11:57 hahah
12:03, I see what you're saying, but I really didn't go to a better high school. I actually went to one of the worse high schools in our area while having to work a full-time job and dual-enrolling(going to college at the same time) to get courses done because it's free. Not saying bow down and worship me, just saying I wasn't spoon-fed everything.
I was on the subway heading to the Bronx the other day and a mom slapped her kid's hand away from his nose and he shouted back, "But Ma! I got a booger!"
1:59, I know it used to be that way, but now-a-days, other races have all the special things handed to them just because they aren't white. And I love how everyone thinks that white people are the only ones being racist....
First 1:05, same here.
Second 1:05, I never said that white people are a supreme race of amazing english professors. We have our retards too.
1:06, I know it doesn't necessarily mean that, but it sure seemed like it to me.
im so sick of people sayin whites are more privileged then any other race.. im white i cant even get financial aid from my college, and i need it just as much as anyone else.
12:32- just out of curiosity, why are you a racist? What makes you think that you are better than someone else because of your race? I'm not meaning to be a bitch, I just don't understand it.
I'm a white girl and must admit that black women like the one in the post scare the shit out of me.
And yes, I assumed she's black since I've only seen other black women also verbally abuse their children so blatently in front of me.
racism = high horse
you think you are better than another race/another race is inferior to yours.
what if you were born black? or do you think God somehow created you especially to be white, that you were chosen and meant to be one of the privileged white ones?
2:12- I'm certainly not trying to say my school is lke a school in the projects, I'm just trying to show that it's not unusual for students to be that way.
Agreed, 1:54. I'm in the same situation. However, just from sitting in line at the financial aid office, seems like everyone else has all these 'special' scholarships set up because they aren't white. It's ridiculous.
By making excuses for why blacks can't succed they prove the stereotype to others that they were trying to disprove in the first place. How do people not see this?
And 11:41, I'm guessing that you meant 'didn't'? Typing errors when you're trying to yell at someone sure make you look like an ass, don't they? And I didn't read it over at all, I can just type because I'm actually educated. I am indeed a racist. Call it what you want. I doubt I'll be burning in hell, but I'll make a call and save you a seat.
11:30 Not at all, I just have a potty mouth so get the FUCK over it.& I see that TRYING to belittle someone makes you feel empowered. Lol!!!! Yea but I apparently spelled it right in the other sentence, so obviously I can spell. Yes, I am halfrican, what the fuck is your point? Oh right, you don't fucking HAVE one.
12:12 your educated self has yet to prove your "valid" argument. and you keep pointing out others spelling errors because you know what they MEANT to say so get over it.
wow, 1:48, I'm pretty sure I never said anything about it being their choice to live in the projects. All I said taht it's their choice to make due with what they have. Ohh, and I love how you refer to it 'white america's youth'
1:48 & 1:54- you guys make me want to get a teaching certificate and move there to work with kids and try to get them to care!
1:54- In general, whites in the US are more privileged than other people, not just money, but in status/respect and many other opportunities. But I'm sorry that you can't get the aid you need.
when you are treated like shit from the time you are an infant by your parents who are supposed to love you then that is what you learn and that is what you grow up to be. I admire the ones that can break that cycle and climb above it no matter what their race is. People should have to fill out applications to have children!!!
Who cares about the racist comments, we've all done it before. Caucasians Hispanics African Americans- everybody does it to eachother, so stop playing the victim. And the demographics of the bronx are that it's a primarily black area, not opinion, fact so everybody stfu
11:46 what does being educated have anything to do with typing?
Fourth graders can type, so you've made, abosolutely, no point. You don't sound educated to me, & you are the ONLY looking like an ass
Most of you probably haven't even been to the Bronx.
There are actually a lot of really nice parts,
and not even close to everyone who lives there is Black.
So stfu you racist pricks, and stop assuming the race of the person who said this.
Uhmmm wasn't trying to yell, just stating the truth, sawwwwry =/
Grow up, i love that you actually format your sentences now lolol.
"Look at me Mom, I can capitalize the first letter of sentences! Wooooo!"
2:03- that is true to some extent... and I suppose it depends on where you live, but there are still a lot of people who don't give minorities options just because of their race. At the same time, though, I do think it's racism when non-white people get opportunites because of their race. And honestly, right now, most country is not very fortunate.
i do agree that there is a large amount of hopelessness in students as well, and that there are special cases where students are ambitious enough and work hard enough to get out. but by and large kids dont have any hope and i really dont think its their fault, i think its america's fault.
1:19, I try to be a cool person lol And that's cool that you don't agree with my views. If we all agreed with everyone, then we couldn't have any fun arguing, right? lol Plus, there would be no debating, which would be boring. and by 'from 1:05#1 and 1:06', did you mean that was you posting those or you though those were my views? Because neither of those was me.
12:42, I did that because she jumped onto 8:06 and I was implying that because the person was black, they couldn't spell or use grammar properly, not because I thought I was better than them.
2:12- However, when people are told over and over again that they will never amount to anything, they start to believe it, and then they make it true of themselves.
Hey 11:19, i bet that 11:10 did go back and read what he said 20397 times just to make sure that he spelled everything right like you did (because if you did, you would have lookked like a damn moron), get a life you racist fucking prick, burn in hell
1:59 this is 1:54 and I'm sorry to tell you this but its not so much the teacher that needs to care, its the student. So long as they don't care it is pointless. I have seen many of the teacher I had going to school there truly care. However the most of my classmates took education as a joke. Now so many of them are in jail or in bad situations. Still trying to help some of my friends finish high school.
First 1:08, I have no problem helping people who actually need it. If we get universal health care, we're utterly fucked. How will it be funded? By the government? Because they can just print more money, right??? No, it'll be in the form of more taxes
12:36, if you don't think your better than anyone, then why did you correct the spelling errors of 11:10 out of the blue? I'm just assuming that you're the same person. If you are, then what you just said doesn't make any sense
I agree that our government could do a better job. However, I think there are definitely equal opportunities for black and white kids. Sure, you have some exceptions, but generally, things have evened out.
wow...it doesnt matter the race of the parent but the manner in which she spoke to her child. Verbal abuse toward children spans all races. I pray that this parents way of talking to her child is not indicitve of other parental issues taken out on the child. Happy july 4th.
