[QUOTE=DSTCHAOS;1348475]So? He's doing his thing. Does it automatically make a black person a coon or a sambo just because they are doing something against the grain or something that you deem ignorant? If so, then you're conforming to white folks' labels.
Why can't Flav just be an eccentric, old ass man who plays up some of the more outlandish parts of his personality to make that paper?
He can be and he certainly is.
coon n 1: an eccentric or undignified rustic; "I'll be a gone coon when the battle starts" 2: (ethnic slur) offensive name for a Black person; "only a Black can call another Black a nigga" [syn: nigger, nigga, spade, jigaboo, nigra]
