[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are many many dcps students that travel to school in large packs. During certain times of the day you can assume an African American youth is a dcps student with about 90% surety.

Stereotypes on race aside. Normally they are pretty poorly behaved[/quote]

Well, yes - most teens moving in packs are pretty poorly behaved in one way or another.  A friend and I made the mistake of going to Busch Gardens on Band Day.  There were hordes of teens (mostly white) that were obnoxious and loud as hell (sound familiar?).  They were cursing, impolite, blocking paths so that people couldn't get by...

We laughed and reminisced about being a stupid teenager and kept moving.[/quote]

I call total bullshit on this story. A bunch of lily white band kids are at Busch Gardens acting like asses? Where were their chaperones? No employees spoke to them about that behavior? That behavior elicited giggles from you and your companion??? Cool story bro. But keep running that "but white kids..." narrative, as if it will change anything in the black community or how the community is viewed.

For the record, nobody's going to simply giggle and reminisce at the sight of a bunch of black kids being loud, obnoxious, cursing and blocking paths. And with good reason too. Many will shoot you for simply "disrespecting" them. Again, I can't believe you didn't think that fantasy through a bit. I mean, the football team perhaps, but the band kids???? They are not known for being the roughest, toughest group in school--in any community, black or white.[/quote]

So white teenagers (and the nerdy band kids) don't act like teenagers?  LOL, cool story, bro.

You're obsessed with white teens. This is about band kids. Your story's a crock of bull. But in your attempt to demonize white kids and normalize the horrible behavior of many (innercity) black teens, you told a story that just doesn't have a ring of truth.

And the fact that you think being loud, obnoxious, cussing and blocking paths--especially in a public, family friendly place populated with small children is somehow acceptable says a TON about why the AA community is in the condition that it is in now. Usually when obnoxious teens behave in that manner, it's when adults are not around.[/quote]
