Peace,


I can never be an accomplice to racism, and I don't embrace being a victim...

As an example, it's like a Brother who has three kids. He just lost his job for whatever reason. His three children at home are starving. Can he realistically look into their eyes and tell them that the reason they're starving is because of "white supremacy/racism"? No, a man will not make those types of excuses nor let such events set the agenda for him. He's going to do what's necessary to feed his kids/tribe.

Once again, I don't know if you did it purposely but...you failed to address the real USA problem with any reasonable rational response my friend. That's why DocEmoDweeb came coSigning you, bcuz he hates Black people so he loves it when any one here puts forth arguments which disregard realities and ignore forces which are factually acting upon The Black American Experience.

See, here's a real life example...similar to your own analogy which you presented;



I lost my job due to racism, once, and I went home/look into my kids eyes and told them that the reason we're going to have to economize for a few weeks is because of "white supremacy/racism". Then I broke it down to them how this same future treatment is waiting for them, if they get darker. Yes, I did in fact do that.

And after putting them in the bed, I woke up the next morning and went found me a new job. Got hired 2 days after applying. But when I got hired, I told the Senior Partner that I couldn't start right away.

It was on a Monday.

So I started that Thursday, because I needed those 3 days to go perfect my racial-discrimination complaint down at the local EEOC office, via the job I had just got fired from. Well, that perfected complaint wound up winning me a "finding" of racial-discrimination, and all deserving compensation thereof. No Black person who I know of, views that situation as one which features me making excuses. It was a situation where I fight against racism while still working hard to feed my family. It's called Multi-tasking.



Now, I know you're not going to respond with a tangible nor viable reply, because your real life experiences don't delve this deep into reality in order to speak to that example. And it's no fault of yours, of course, but please do just read/embellish my experience -----as yet another ounce of proof of "that America" which you have to start accounting for, if you expect your gameplan to ever be productive for aiding USA Black males.

ps

ever heard about the scorpion and frog story ?..... ``its my nature"

let me refresh your memory

The Scorpion and the Frog
One day, a scorpion looked around at the mountain where he lived and decided that he wanted a change. So he set out on a journey through the forests and hills. He climbed over rocks and under vines and kept going until he reached a river.

The river was wide and swift, and the scorpion stopped to reconsider the situation. He couldn't see any way across. So he ran upriver and then checked downriver, all the while thinking that he might have to turn back.

Suddenly, he saw a frog sitting in the rushes by the bank of the stream on the other side of the river. He decided to ask the frog for help getting across the stream.

"Hellooo Mr. Frog!" called the scorpion across the water, "Would you be so kind as to give me a ride on your back across the river?"

"Well now, Mr. Scorpion! How do I know that if I try to help you, you wont try to kill me?" asked the frog hesitantly.

"Because," the scorpion replied, "If I try to kill you, then I would die too, for you see I cannot swim!"

Now this seemed to make sense to the frog. But he asked. "What about when I get close to the bank? You could still try to kill me and get back to the shore!"

"This is true," agreed the scorpion, "But then I wouldn't be able to get to the other side of the river!"

"Alright then...how do I know you wont just wait till we get to the other side and THEN kill me?" said the frog.

"Ahh...," crooned the scorpion, "Because you see, once you've taken me to the other side of this river, I will be so grateful for your help, that it would hardly be fair to reward you with death, now would it?!"

So the frog agreed to take the scorpion across the river. He swam over to the bank and settled himself near the mud to pick up his passenger. The scorpion crawled onto the frog's back, his sharp claws prickling into the frog's soft hide, and the frog slid into the river. The muddy water swirled around them, but the frog stayed near the surface so the scorpion would not drown. He kicked strongly through the first half of the stream, his flippers paddling wildly against the current.

Halfway across the river, the frog suddenly felt a sharp sting in his back and, out of the corner of his eye, saw the scorpion remove his stinger from the frog's back. A deadening numbness began to creep into his limbs.

"You fool!" croaked the frog, "Now we shall both die! Why on earth did you do that?"

The scorpion shrugged, and did a little jig on the drownings frog's back.

"I could not help myself. It is my nature."

Then they both sank into the muddy waters of the swiftly flowing river.
Self destruction - "Its my Nature", said the Scorpion...

Wise counsel, indeed.

From your post, "some women burn you out and turn you off completely from dating". Dude, that's not only tragic, cynical and sorry for a man to post something sentiment like that, but that shows cats aren't prepared for life, because life is about ups and downs, triumphs and tragedies,mistakes and missteps.

You can blame someone for knocking you down, but you can only blame yourself if you refuse to get back up. Stop embracing victimhood.

Also, some people are comfortable never entering the ring of life.

The fear of defeat can be overwhelming for them.

That is their choice.

It is funny how they want to make excuses for their own unwillingness to be more.
