No, I didn't. As I've said, I don't follow or know much about him. Fine, just replace the "is" with "was"; as in "his mom was smarter than all of your direct ancestors combined..." What's so hard about that? Dead or alive, it doesn't really change the fact that his mom is/was smarter than WFO and his family combined, for he usually assumes the worst of someone because of his/her race (specifically black and hispanic).

If you preface any argument about race w/ "I'm not racist b/c (insert BS)" you ruin your entire argument b/c the overwhelming majority of people do that b/c they indeed are racist. Or if they are not racist they are definitely prejudice.

If you're not racist you don't have to say you're not racist. If someone says "I'm not Gay bc (insert rainbow BS)" just the fact that you had to say it means its HIGHLY likely that you ARE gay. Works the same way. And that gurl could have been Malcom x's granddaughter, he still would have went up on that stage. Jay-z is Beyonce's husband and Jay was the dudes good friend. He was gonna campaign for beyonce regardless.

He's an asshole b/c he's an asshole, not b/c he's black.

Most people who also complain about rap music don't even know wtf they're talking about. Thats like saying the NFL or American Football is horrible b/c the only games you get to see are against the detroit lions. Don't generalize a genre b/c you're not knowledgeable about it. It shows ignorance.

Call the presses! This D-grade student can read and write (barely). Ownage, my ass! Simply replace the "is" with "was".

You're from Lacey, WA and claim to have black friends? The only people in Lacey are rednecks/farmers.
Don't get mad because someone else made you feel stupid.

You must not be from Washington because if you did, you would know Lacey isn't like that. Ontop of that (if I recall right), you dont know me. So how would you know if I have black friends or not? Also, just because I live in Lacey doesn't mean I was born in Lacey.

Again, way to shoot yourself in the other foot like you did the first one on the post mentioned.

While I agree with the statement that I didnt have to mention that, I completely disagree with the fact that I did means that Im a racist. The comment I made might have been ignorance to the misunderstanding eye and mind, the comments you made in this post as well soul_fly was ignorance.

I dont know how much of this quoted post was directed towards me, but Ill take it that all of it was. First, I never said he is an asshole because he is black. Thats just misunderstanding or just putting words in my mouth. He's an asshole because he's an asshole. My statement was simply saying that I feel his action towards Taylor swift was a reaction to his Bush comments and past lyrics in his songs.

I know quite a bit about hop hop music and culture, not so much the new stuff because I dont like much of it. Im an oldschool guy, and not just talking about straight mainstream. Souls of Mischief, Del the Funky Homosapian, Camp Lo, Mobb Deep, Black Moon, Pete Rock (w an w/o CL Smooth) is just the tip of the iceberg of music I listened to in the past and still have to this day and listen to. Again, judging a book by its cover that you and soul_fly decided to do over a comment you two misunderstood.

How do you know Im not racist? The first is simple, you dont know me. Two, you dont have proof I burn crosses in front yards, sport a nice white body sheet, or have a swazika tatoo'd anywhere on me or posted anywhere in my house. From what I have watched and read about racists and supremesist, they are very proud of their views on this sensitive subject (I dont fit that catagory). Three, how striking and ironic it is that I own Jordan shoes, have a Filipina wife, I own a Honda and out of the 24 cars Ive owned, 22 were imports, and last but not least, Im quarter black....

Not very characteristic of a racist ya think? Either that, or I have one hell of a good cover up going on.

I think this has gotten a bit rediculous.

I don't know you, but I know you're a liar. Why? Because Lacey does not have any black at all.

So, not knowing everything about Kanye's personal life equates to stupidity? I only read that his mother was a professor and made that comment; everything else would be irrelevant. Did you know that one of my distant relatives died a few months ago? No? Then you're stupid.

You may not have swazika tattoos and signs, but maybe you have swastikas.

D Grade, I'm really happy for you and ima let you finish, but that was one of the worst "I'm not racist" responses of all time. ALL TIME.

I wasn't referring to you directly or else I would have quoted you, but since you responded obviously you feel self conscious about my post. I never said you were racist nor did I ever say you said "he was an asshole b/c he is black". Reading comprehension is at an all time low on this continent.

Reread my initial post. Key words such as "majority" and "likely" are used. If I wanted to call you a racist I would have no problem calling you a racist. It appears you got a bit uncomfortable when I merely mentioned a flaw in your argument that detracts from your message. The only thing that has become ridiculous is you feeling the need to preach from the peak of Mount Sinai all the qualities that apparently make you not a racist when NOT ONE PERSON has called you a racist.

But just for kicks I have a few questions. How does being married to an asian woman and driving asian cars aid in your argument about not being racist against black people LOL. You do know you can be racist against only one race right? I guess racist people wear absolutely nothing from adidas, converse, reebok and nike b/c they are primarily endorsed by black athletes. Quarter black? did you put that on your SAT I'm sure you didn't mark "other" and write all your races down did you? Didn't think so. So just stop embarassing yourself, you were not called a racist.
