This whole convo kinda reflects the gaps in our own society between the haves and have-nots. Middle class morality vs. a ghetto mentality.
Lovelyivy84, I agree with Chris Rock 1913%. In the African-American community, there ARE two sets of people: Blacks and Niggas. It's totally embarassing. I absolutely can not STAND an ignorant, loud-talking NIGGA. It's sad to say, but it's true. One of my peeves is the awards shows, yes the AWARDS SHOWS. It may sound trivial, but it's true. I hate seeing people like JaRule, Dre from Outkast, and a lot of others get up there and act, talk, and look like FOOLS. YEAH, YEAH!! WORD!!! KNOW WHAT I'M SAYIN'!!!! PEACE!!!! YA HEARD!!!! FOR REAL!!! KEPPIN' IT REAL!!! The grabbing of the crouch. The hats on in the building. The gangsta-gangsta outfits. The fifty-million gold teeth. The gang signs (you know, with the fingers). YADDA, YADDA, YADDA!!!  I just get sick and tired of seeing that mess. Can we all atleast ACT like we have some decent and respectable home training????
Just by looking and listening to them, one would NEVER even THINK that they were MILLIONAIRES or even from very respectable backgrounds. IT'S A SHAME!!!

Sister Greek korkscru, thank you for this post. This ill-behaviour that some of us show is disappointing and retromingent.
Many people, however, don't have good home training and just don't care.
I thank God every day that I had good home training and parents who taught me what's right. And frankly, I'm happy to be middle-class with a college degree and NOT have kids I can't take care of properly. It's called personal responsibility, people.
I am just so tired of those who think acting and living like a n@&&$ is something to be proud of.
