Don't you see your hypocrisy...the double standard?

BAC baited me with "motherfucking racist" for pages & pages of this thread. Nary a comment from you & the minions, save for "get over it, Thing."

I bait him with that ONE post (which worked by the way - and was a lot more innocuous than "motherfucking racist"), and I'm disgusting, and belong in the 'asshole hall of fame.'

Go figure.

I saw this posted several different times on Facebook. I didn't post this because of the trial but because it reminded me of being young and some people I grew up with. A lot of people do dumb things when they are a teenager. A lot of people look back and say "what was I thinking"? And there are some very successful people today who will tell you that at one point in their life they were headed down a very dark path until they made a change. (Of course there were kids I grew up with that were punks and thugs and never changed and are now just old punks and thugs). Yes Trayvon liked to smoke weed and fight. Not exactly traits I would encourage young people to follow yet millions of kids have gotten in fights and smoked week in their life. He was not unique that way.

This post reminded me of being 17 and remembering what I thought at the time and what my mindset was.

From The Wall Of Mr. Corey Shy:
I am Trayvon Martin..
The picture on the left was taken when I was 17 years old, had just graduated from high school, and really didn't know what I wanted to do with my life. Based on my appearance in this picture, you probably would have labeled me a thug or a trouble maker. I only graduated in the top 50% of my class and I took my ACT 4 times. A promising future in college doesn't look too well... at this point does it?

But at age 17 (Trayvon's age when murdered), I didn't realize how much I would be judged and stereotyped for the clothes I wore and my physical appearance. Two months after that picture on the left was taken, I entered college and quickly realized that I wasn't pushing myself to be the best I can be. I hardly studied in high school but as as freshman in college I began to study daily. As a matter of fact, I did so well that I was able to participate in a summer medical internship at Yale University. I then went on to graduate from Prairie View A&M University Magna Cum Laude and in two weeks I will be attending Texas A&M Health Science College of Medicine to become a medical doctor.

The picture on the right is where I am now just four years later at the age of 21. The reason I am sharing this with you is because I COULD HAVE BEEN TRAYVON MARTIN!!! The defense team could have gone onto the internet and found pictures of me that were similar to Trayvon's pictures and characterized me as a thug. They would have then portrayed me as the aggressor and as a result it lead to my death. If that would have happened, then I would not have had the opportunity to reach my true calling, which is a medical doctor. My White Coat ceremony is in four days and it marks the next step in my journey. I could have been laying in a casket with a black suit, instead of being in a white coat trying to save lives.

When I was 17, no one would have imagined that I would be doing so well and on my way to medical school. Who is to say that could not have happened to Trayvon Martin if he was still alive? He could have been the next doctor, lawyer, engineer, teacher ,etc.

My prayers go out to his family and friends.

Please share my story so people can be more conscious of their racial profiling. Everyone has the potential, as long as they are alive, to achieve greatness and make a positive impact on this world.

Look at this dark, evil racist post I made Desh.
 
Oh no these threads from back then give me PTSD attacks. And force me to think about when I started hating Grind. And I also don't want to reread my fight with Onceler.

I refuse to reread them because I just don't feel like thinking about all of the ways I could kill Grind. I've learned that she who controls her emotions controls her enemies...and rereading these threads might really task me!

If you, tekky & Darla REALLY cared about racism, and really saw it as a serious issue - you would think that falsely accusing someone of racism, or calling them a racist without any justification whatsoever, was serious as well.

So, pipe down. I wasn't going to just sit back & shut up after BAC called me a motherfucking racist for the umpteenth time. I was going to defend myself, and do so passionately.

And screw "respecting" BAC. You have to earn respect, and he's a major league fraud & hypocrite.

why I used to love wack
 
Uhhh, is somebody seriously trying to draw parallels between the inhumanity done to Emmit Till, and what happened to that thug Trayvon Martin?

Even worse, are they now trying to expand it to the child rapist, domestic abuser in Baton Rouge who tried to pull his gun out on two cops?

Hey, it happens.

I can't believe some of the shite that she, you, tekky, Rana, et al. have expounded on the past few days. I really can't.

So yeah - it's been an eye-opener. I don't really believe that Darla lacks intelligence - she's articulate & one of the best writers here. But her opinions & posts on this issue have betrayed that intelligence. And she has crossed some lines that you can really never get back over again.

Nah; I was pissed because she wasn't the smartie that I thought she was.

She's just a hack, and a fool. The groupthink among you guys & gals has really been something to see the past couple of days; it holds up to anything that gets thrown at it, even stark truth.
