I have and still do at times.

What he is saying is not completely untrue, though it doesn't apply everywhere or for everyone, obviously.

There truly is, in some cases, a systematic belief that they are owed something by society as a whole. I liken it to the sad state of First Nation folks in many pockets of Canada.

Like anything else, there are extreme cases of this everywhere, but that doesn't mean its the norm. Often it's a cultural thing, which i have yet to understand. They really do make things harder on themselves in many instances, which is so unfortunate.

And to anyone that does not believe that blacks, and other minorities, are not capable of rascism, give your head a shake. I have seen it multiple times and it is just as ugly as it is when its whites on any of them.
