De Beauvoir Cycle Gang Strikes Again

Can I just write something serious for once? Just so you know what's my real opinion.
Some things I said could be interpreted as racist or socially unaware or whatever, but it's actually the opposite. I don't care - who knows me knows what I'm about.

Personally I find all the excuses patronising and racist.
Why? Because most of the kids from estates are Black. Now, giving them an excuse, because they are Black, confused, from poor families, from deprived areas, left to their own, with a baggage of slavery and discrimination is just not very ethical. And it's, frankly, racist.
You should expect the same from those kids you'd expect from everyone else. You can't say "Oh, they robbed a hipster, but it's ok, because their area is deprived". That's like Chris Rocks said - low expectations ("He's done well for a Black guy. He's never been to jail".

[ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Eric_Dyson"]Prof. Dyson [/ame] once said, that the worse thing which will destroy the whole Black culture is a belief, that to be Black you have to be street. For some reason, all the kids from estates, no matter what race and ethic origin, don the same philosophy - you have to be street, you need to be hard, you need to be aggressive. And everyone allows them to be that way, because of the "hardship" they encounter on the estates.
Well, it's not on. There are more unfortunate people on this planet who live in** real hardship **and they don't steal, rob, stab or rape.

Whoever think the opposite should come up to one of the guys from the forum and say in their face: "You have job and never been to jail. You've done well for a Black guy/someone from a council estate" and see what their reaction would be like.
