I SEE NOWAre we really surprised here?
Was a South side resident for a long time out there . **** goin up that 48st hill. Glad they opened more businesses in south mountain.As a black suburban Arizonan, let me shed some context to the situation. In the southern part of Phoenix there is a mountain called South Mountain. On the southern side of the mountain there is the community of Ahwatukee(suburbs), which is where these girls live. It's really isolated from the rest of the city and as you can guess is inhabited by a mostly white crowd. On the northern side of the mountain is the community of Laveen/South Phoenix (urban), which has a sizable black population. Ahwatukee's official motto is "the nice side of the hill", which tells you what you need to know about the attitude of the people that live there.
No defense for this kind of behavior in my opinion, the state of AZ needs to hold this L for this
Tucson >>> Phoenix
We'll all forgot about this in a month like we forgot about those frat boys that sang a racist song on their bus.
Maybe because my family raised me with all races i dont care to join the bandwagon of outrage just because......im one of the folks that think everyone is racist at some point..maybe not blatantly but we all say racist ****...from jokes to when we hang out with certain friends.....some people can say **** you and some wanna fight.....it is what it is...all i know is i am never surprised because i never expect, therefore am not let down.
You don't take the power out of something by ignoring it. The simple wrongness of enslaving another human being and treating him/her like property being ignored is why the Native American population was decimated, two thirds of the Jews that resided in Europe systematically exterminated, and the African/African American population kept in chains until less than 200 years ago. Slavery, segregation, the inability to vote; you take the power away from something by confronting it head on, showing everyone that it is wrong, and ensuring that no one ever forgets just how wrong it is. In the instances when someone does you then confront the issue again, and again, and again every damn day, every ******* time until it is finally not an issue anymore.I forgive you too, racist. I love you as a human. Gimme a hug !

What about remembering atrocities so it festers into rancor and perpetual hate until the cycle of violence is repeated, again and again. So yes, you do take the power out of somethingby ignoringthrough forgiveness.

1. Its Arizona. Nothing good comes from Arizona.
They're comfortable doing this because they know as black people all we do is pray cry and forgive
Are we really surprised here?
Yeah it looks way better than it did back in the day.

I just want this to be seen again. This x a million. Rusty, take these reps sir.For most of America history, blacks were property, not people.
For most of American history, it was illegal for black to build wealth
For all of America history, blacks have been oppressed in some way. Either physical, socially or economically.
For all of American history, some form of white supremacy and systemics racism has existed.
Wake the hell up. The present is the way it is because of the past
And I love how somehow speaking about racism, makes somesome "pro-black" and not interested in practicing brotherhood with the next man. Or that somehow is twisted into putting black people ABOVE others
That is the same nonsense logic behind the "All Lives Matter" deflection
Black community has been asking for equality, and shared prosperity for hundreds of years.
And they have been rebuffed for hundreds of years.
But somehow, the problem is our attitudes
Wish _____ would stop asking massa for your god given right
They would flip it and act like he is not supportive if he leavers herWhat are the odds the boyfriend stays with her?
^ You're still at it ? You're not black, why do you have so much to say on what's what^THIS.
the perpetuation of the idealism that the white man is holding me back will continue to hold you back.

Not saying you can't have an opinion because of your ethnicity, but you're WAY too opinionated on things that don't directly effect you.
The resemblance... "G"enius execution
I think I spot what just transpired here.

I think he should keep his opinion to himself since he's basically telling black people how to react to white supremacy
