because the civil rights movement made it more able for blacks to be given a chance at being treated more fairly in america on the notion that blacks shouldn't be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.
what do you think of the content of her character and others like her? what would mlk think?
it's horrible. mlk sacrificed his life trying to uplift blacks to a higher standard and advocate their fair treatment through non-violent, peaceful means. some 40 years later, here we are...
it's horrible and i wish more black people, aside from bill cosby, would open their eyes and realize wtf they're doing to contribute to the negative stereotypes and prevailing inequalities that they feel today.
I knew we couldn't have a thread about a black person with classy getting involved. Took 49 posts though, starting to slip
Its a person, not a black person, a person. Her color ain't got a damn thing to do with her behavior........People behave like that all the time, of all colors and races. Why is it so special because she is black?
That's a stupid comment. You have it backwards. This is ONE woman that is not representative of African-Americans. If MLK was alive he would want her to be criticized ON THE CONTENT OF HER CHARACTER, not on the fact that she's black. He didn't die so that all blacks could be good role models. He died so that blacks could be judged WITHOUT their skin color being a factor. I seriously doubt he would be "rolling in his grave". If anything, he'd be sad that people like you are still out there judging people based on their race.
I dont know, you tell me? You are the one that rushes to any thread about a black person like flies to shit. You dont do the same for threads about dumbass white people. Are you a racist?
Some people take a particular interest in threads about subjects that are related to them. Do you see a problem with that?

Dude your an idiot. Every single thread of big discussion I have always particpated in here on Anandtech for 12-13 years now. I defend people based on facts, not because they are one color or another. Shame your sorry ass can't do the same.

But he just said race doesn't matter, its just a color. Why would it interest him in the slightest?
What are you implying his relation to this subject is?
I feel like her behavior represents a large portion of uneducated (though I can't really be sure about this one), inner-city, black Americans. Her black skin is a common trait that these uneducated, inner-city people have. It's more of a cultural thing, IMO, than a race thing. African-American, inner-city culture being the problem.
Your a white man, not much of a man, but all those white priests raping little boys. I guess you are just like them. Hey what age is your favorite?

Only a few posts into our exchange and out comes your usual name calling. Just can't help yourself can you?
You really are a stupid pile of shit.
You are just a sorry, probably a scrawny little ass white punk who comes on the internet to talk your junk, because in real life you would get your ass kicked.
Well, that's your opinion. Can't really argue with what you "feel" now can we.
I don't really think you're helping fight black stereotypes with this comment.
Are you implying that my opinion, when compared to what you've witnessed, throughout your lifetime, is completely misguided?
Cause Nick you ain't worth spit. You are just a sorry, probably a scrawny little ass white punk who comes on the internet to talk your junk, because in real life you would get your ass kicked.
Yep. Thug life
lol. Why does he have to be at the vanguard to "helping fight black stereotypes"? Because he is black and put the word "white" in there?
