But we also need to realize that black culture is oppressing themselves, from the inside.

It's cool to be a total dropout, it's cool to go to jail, it's cool to wear clothing that makes you look like a thug (pronounced "Total retard"). It's cool to listen to obnoxiously loud rap music about fucking bitches, shooting guns, smoking dope in your Cadilac. It's cool to blare music through your iPhone 6 speakers while sitting on the Metro Bus... so loud that everyone on the bus hears the distorted garbage that is taxing your phone's batteries. USE SOME FUCKING HEADPHONES.

This is all anecdotal.

Rap music is more than that. I don't expect you to like rap, I expect all to recognize that others have different tastes. That's just my personal yardstick, though.

Sounds like a personal issue with someone you've experienced. I'm sorry about that.

"White culture is about chewin' tobbaco, goin huntin, wearin confederate flags, and drivin a good ol' pickup while screwin yer cousin"

See how easy that is?

I take the train for a couple hours everyday. Young black people are effectively the only people who blast music at clearly audible levels on my train. This is clear and obvious after years on the train. Should I ruin my commute by sitting next to them or should I open my eyes observe reality and avoid them so as not to ruin my commute with their bullshit? What would you do?

That's Cowboy culture...

White culture includes white boys rapping about fucking bitches, shooting, guns, smoking dope in you cadilac with all your black friends.

Apparently Asian rap music about that too...

"Cowboy culture"

Since it's just one part stereotypical part of "white culture" it's reasonable to say that those stereotypes do not apply to all "white culture", correct?

So why are imposing this stereotypical view of all black people in a generality such as "black culture?" You make an exception for whites, yet not blacks.

Trust me man, I've been there. That was before I started reading up on some history books explaining just how bad of a situation American blacks are currently in due to prior oppression. I recommend "Lies My Teacher Told Me" by James Loewen. Really opened my eyes.

Not to say you're racist, I'm just saying I've been down that line of reasoning and took it to an extreme that you clearly have not taken it to. You're just rationalizing with certain perceptions of "black culture".

You're right. I'm making a very vague and blanket statement when i say "black Culture" .. i admit that. And I should be more careful and specify .. "Predominant, mainstream, African-American culture currently hitting the Top-100 charts, creating $1.4bn of economic movement."

Seriously... but not-seriously..

No, it's your anecdotal evidence. You can't say something is the predominant culture with no sources or facts to back it up. You're making blanket statements based on anecdotes.

This supports the theory that thug culture, which encourages random sexual encounters, reaps what it sows.

I highly doubt all those single black mothers were impregnated by college educated, career employed black men who they were married to at the time.

I don't see a controlled study linked. Sad that this passes as law for some. I do believe there are certain income inequalities as well as birth out of wedlock, single parenthood, etc so assuming all is correct in this news article:

This supports the theory that thug culture, which encourages random sexual encounters, reaps what it sows.

It does no such thing. You draw that conclusion based on your own opinions. You immediately said "this stat exists so this unsupported hypothesis is what caused it." That's very poor interpretation of data. With all due respect any statistics teacher would slap you in the face for that (kidding, of course.)

I highly doubt all those single black mothers were impregnated by college educated, career employed black men who they were married to at the time.

Perhaps, perhaps not. Instead of strictly interpreting data, you just draw a conclusion based on huge assumptions. Along with that, you immediately attribute it to "thug culture" which is an unsupported claim.

Your issue is not with recognizing that their are problems. I think we all agree that black Americans are in a spot where there is inequality. The issue is that you immediately attribute it to certain unsupported hypotheses, which I believe stem from a certain prejudice.

You don't have the courage to just call me a racist?

All those paragraphs of waste and dancing around, you could have saved some time and just have said a simple sentence.

What think is even funnier is you are making an assumption that I'm coming from a prejudice, rather than coming a logical conclusion. Since it's impossible to do so, it is rather hypocritical for you to make that inference.

You don't have any data that suggests I'm a racist, yet that's what you're saying.

If I actually was a racist, which I'm not, it would be rather self hating of me to do so since I'm of mixed race, I would be proud to admit it. I wouldn't dance around and try to make a point using logic or a study, I'd come right out and say it.

Show me the Klansman who isn't proud to hold his viewpoint and wear it proudly.

I don't believe you are a racist. I believe you have prejudice towards the black race in my limited interaction with you. There is a large difference. I think you want to put words in my mouth so you can group me in with those who blindly pull the race card, and I'll tell you now - that's not the way this interaction is going to happen.

I don't think any of it was waste. I was calling you out on your immediate interpretation of single black mothers being extremely common immediately indicating "thug culture". Instead of accepting that as being irresponsible interpretation of data, you simply resorted to making my claim for me in an attempt to discredit me.

When did it become cool to generalize an entire race over a few douchebags on the bus? The Hitler card could be played here.
