Is it ok? Do you think she's a racist? Should she lose her job?

I never heard of her until just now. I object to her choice of language. But, she appears to be black. Can one black person be racist against another black person? That's probably a discussion in itself. I don't really care if she loses her job or not and don't have an opinion on whether she should.

So in other words, you're taking a pass on answering because she's black. That's racist in itself

Who is she? Is she someone important?

Damn it seem like every thread longer than 10 pages somehow ends up on the subject of black-on-black crime.
WTF???

If racists don’t soothe themselves with the allegedly inferiority of minorities, they haven’t done their job.

I've read this entire thread and nowhere have I seen any poster allege "inferiority of minorities." Could you please point that out? Thanks.

Whatever you say. If this is you best counter-example to Roseanne, you really don't have much to work with. Make the most of it.

Bullish!t. Take responsibility for the violence and crime in your own neighborhoods and stop pretending it’s everyone’s fault but your own.

This is racist thinking. All black people are responsible for anything done by any other black person? How do you know what neighborhood that poster lives in? Not all back people live in crime-filled neighborhoods.

The past few PPs have been discussing violence in black neighborhoods. Please don’t be purposely obtuse. Again I ask: what is it that blacks would like whites to do about black people killing other black people? If we speak out about it, we’re called racists. If we say and do nothing, we’re accused of ignoring the problem. What exactly should white people do about violence in black communities and why are we blamed for it? Do you have an actual answer or are you just going to continue with the PC non-answers?

WTF?! When are you going to take responsibility for white people killing each other? WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF NOT ALL BLACK FOLKS LIVE TOGETHER.

Last I checked, we DO take responsibility. We’re certainly not blaming other racial groups for our faults.

You are a damn lie.

That's a response? So articulate!

So is expecting whites to feel guilty for it

Exactly. And ftr, I don’t feel guilty about it. Nor would I expect anyone else to feel guilty about problems in my community that have nothing to do with them.

What happened to "OUR COMMUNITY"? Black people, white people, Hispanic people, Asian people - we are all Americans together. What happens in Chicago or rural West Virginia matters to me, because it's OUR country. That's OUR community. When someone bleeds in Chicago or West Virginia, we feel pain across the country.

This is one of the biggest issues today: atomization of the American populace. Something happening on Fox News in Chicago doesn't resonate with most viewers because they don't see it as part of "their" existence. That is what is truly sad - people only view life thru the lens of their own curated bubble.

Sorry, you could be talking about poor whites in Appalachia or poor urban blacks in the inner city - neither one is "my community." My community has other issues though - different ones that those in Appalachia or the inner city can't relate to, nor should they have to. The point is that I don't blame other communities for the ills of my own, and refuse to be blamed for their problems. It's called PERSONAL RESPONSIBLITY.

We white people cant use certain words that AA people can. It doesn’t bother me that the n-word isn’t for my use; I never wanted to use it. There are phrases and insults we can’t use. I’m not upset about it. Why are you?

No one said all blacks live together. We’re talking about neighborhoods in which there is a lot of violence, perpetuated by and against blacks. And as predicted, you have no answer for what you want white people to do about it - other than accept the blame for this violence that has nothing to do with us.

We want all people to care about all people dying due to senseless crime. To care about anyone that violence touches. Can you do that? Is that an answer for you? Not matter what your race is, your should care about black on black crime, white on white crime, human against human crime. But no one seems to care about the crime that is disproportionately ripping apart the families of POC. That's what I want white people to do. Care about little children in the hood dying like you care about the overcrowding at the JKLM schools. Care about the 13 people who were shot
in DC this past weekend. Care about the families of the nearly 4700 POC who died in PR. I mean c'mon, is it that hard to say I don't want children of any race to die due to crime and violence? And that want your government to do everything they can to put a stop to it? Nobody is blaming white people for the crime in Chicago. But some people stay with the us against them mentality.

That's why America will never be great (again?).

I see what you're saying and I agree that we should all care about children dying, no matter their race or geographical location. Of course. However, can you tell us why crime is "disproportionately ripping apart the families of POC"? I want to know why this is. And whether you're going to blame people *other than the people living in those areas* for the disproportionate amount of crime there? Who, exactly, should be held accountable?

I looooove to see hypocrisy called out! Too bad she wasn't actually called out on this crude comment when it actually happened. B'bye , Monique.

But black people are free to use any slurs they like, without fear of repercussion. Why is that?

Oh, she was called out on it all right. And wrote a column of excuses on why it's ok for HER to say it

The actual perpetrators of the crime are the ones who should be held accountable. Not all of black america. And I don't why specifically it is happening, but I want it to stop and I want my government, the government that I pay taxes to, to actively do something about it, to care about the people and stop calling it black on black crime. I want you to stop a calling it black on black crime. Because maybe if you did, you actually would care about the people that are affected. Does it make some white people to feel good to blame the black children for the suffering that happens in their neighborhoods? What does it do for you to separate yourself from those children? Do you think it's okay for poor children to dodge bullets and just say well they just should blame their circumstance? Is okay that these children don't have up to date books, or dilapidated schools? Maybe that's why the crime happens? If your learning environment is like a jail, who wants to learn there? I want MY tax dollars to help poor people. I don't mind giving them a hand out. I don't want my money going to more military, more banks or more rich people.

Why are you so quick to accept that black people can use a racial slur against another black person?
