Mark Cuban: "If I see a Black Kid with a Hoody and it's late at night, I'm Crossin the Street..."

[Dupac]

THE MOTHERFUCKER SAID HE WAS BIGOTED AND PREJUDICE!!!!!!

like it's no more cut and dry than that.... he said the shit outta his own mouth.....

there's no way to misconstrue this shit....it is what it is.....

why are people acting like this is okay???

i don't give a fuck what you're thinking....if you say some shit like that out your mouth....you have to atone for it...

if i walk in a store with my wife, look at a random chick and say "damn i'd fuck the dog shit outta that bitch!!"

it don't matter how bad the chick is, or whatever i was thinking in my mind....imma have to deal with the consequences of that stupid ass statement i recklessly said outta my mouth....

there's no way what he said was okay.. he's a professional, and a team owner....he shoulda used better judgement, and actually thought about the shit before he said it

 

[Dupac]

it's just some shit you just don't say bruh...he's a professional...he should conduct himself like one at all time

 

[Dupac]

this is why dave chappelle was so much deeper than people ever realized..

"when keeping it real goes wrong"

shit was a funny series of skits...but such an honest commentary.....people really think keeping it real all the time is the way to go...naw....the shit is stupid

 

[Arya Tsaddiq]

dude is saying "yes i'm a racist, yes i am prejudice.... but here's why"

and niggaz is going

he makes an excellent argument

not really. you mean to tell me you have never seen a group of black guye and new they were trouble.

also if black people agree its prolly cause we racist to. how many time you seen a white guy in a suit and assumed he wasnt a criminal. its the same thing.

lol@this logic...

if u as a black man fear black men, you've been brain washed... white men in suits are committing genocide upon black men today, yet u fear a nigga in a hoodie...

wake up...

It's not about seeing a group of people and whether or not he think's it's trouble. He just proved that in his mind he agrees with the stereotypical image of black male+hoodie= potential robbery. A hoodie means it's cold/chilly not a potential robbery is about to happen 98% of the time. Anyone whose face you can't see at night would cause someone to be more aware whether they're black, white, green or purple. There's no need to inject race into that and he did it needlessly.

And lol @ your logic. A nigga will kill you just as quick as white men in suits.

But that's besides the point.

Dude expressed his feelings on the matter which is truth to alot of people who are in here saying otherwise. Like niggas are trusting another nigga walking down the street at 2 am in a damn hoodie. Even if its a white dude with a hoodie.

Niggas in here getting blindsided. Niggas are responding to ignorant triggers.

What MC said was not racist. He even throw a white guy in that matter. Anybody suspicious, he's not fucking with.

And? Yall niggas are the same damn way...but oh no its a racist thing.

This is significant problem, real racial issues need to be addressed but black folks out here picking the wrong damn fights.

 

[playmaker88]

Stephen A needs to be checked.. not called a coon or sellouts but hit him on the points we raised not sure if anyone hit him with the difference of a man in a hoody to the not so normal tattoos on face

 

[Meta_Conscious]

They got u niggas washed...

crime is down, income inequality is up...

y'all scared of your own shadows and cats in suits are committing economic genocide...

most white ppl are victimized by white ppl, but y'all accept their irrational fear of black skin... hilarious.

no way u can win an intellectual debate by using irrational feelings as justification for irrational behavior.

black folks are fucking dumb. So nevermind the fact that he said if he saw a white guy with tats on his face, his crossing back to the street with the black dude and the hoodie huh?

Now a hoodie means its cold and chilly, nevermind the fact that we know a hoodie, baggie jeans and tims perfect the grimy look that we all seen in the hood and in rap videos.

Now every nigga in here trusting every nigga in the world

You niggas are not being wise nor real about this whole thing. Which is unfortunate, because black folks don't know which fights to pick. This shit is minimal as fuck.

Like you niggas trusting a nigga in 2 am in a damn hoodie. Or a white dude with tats on his face. FOH

yes it was...

he even said it was...he used the 2am in a hoodie example as a way to try to lessen the blow, and introduced the white guy in the story for the same thing....

his entire point of the example was to show that he does associate black people as robbers....and set the example up as a way to "make sense" to people who share similar insecurities.....

but make no mistake. his entire point was to show that he is indeed racist

 

[playmaker88]

What he said doesnt have to be classified as out and out racist it was ignorant as fuck wrapped in racial anxiety... and because it is a norm for others to feel like this in regards to us.. niggas accept it..

Oh Michael Eric Dyson will be on at 11 on first take... he will leave no stone unturned...

Waits...

 

[Meta_Conscious]

I run into this problem often in my field...

a cop will straight up say that he thinks blacks are criminals and need to be harassed, and mafuckas will straight ignore it and say "nah he aint racist tho"...

 

[nujerz84]

feelings everywhere.

Cari Champion actually specifically asked him about that comparison after he went on his initial rant.

Nobody said trusting everyone in the world. For one, everybody wearing a hoodie ain't walking around in baggy jeans and timbs too. Not everyone wearing a hoodie is wearing it in a suspicious way. There's a bunch of different types of hoodies. Which ones are the ones causing him to be fearful? He took a situation and tried to make a generalization when it's a situation that needs specific factors in order to be considered dangerous he left out. Simply seeing someone in a hoodie shouldn't be enough to invoke fear. If he had simply said "anyone suspicious I'm looking to cross the street" that's one thing. To specifically say "a black kid in a hoodie" qualifies a good portion of black males because hoodies are pretty common in every day life. Yes to the avg, everyday person a hoodie just means it's cold because the vast majority of us ain't out here robbing people. Hell forget Mark Cuban, who in general is normally out here walking around at 2 am like that's some normal shit to begin with? He took an abnormal situation and tried to apply normal logic to it. That doesn't work
