Nice edit.

I agree.

Asians, Mexicans, pretty much everyone not white has been shite on by white people at some point in history.

you seriously trust Al and Jesse Jackson? now I know you're uneducated. No educated black trusts them. As a matter of fact, JJ is a phony. Read about MLK's death. You think MLK would want all this hate. You're so ignorant. You can't argue with a person who's unarmed. You're unarmed in the brain department. Sorry.

Oh, and what would make it "even Steven?" Aren't you a free man today? Can you not have opportunity to education and jobs today same as a white person? The Chinese have done a good job in this country. it's because too many of you put your faith in Jesse and Al.

Yeah...

This issue is really too nuanced for some sports message board discussion.

Attila the Hun
Ghengis Khan

The vast majority of Mexicans are Mestizo, which means Native American/European mix.

The Jews should just move on from that whole Holocaust deal. Dunno even know why they talk about it, really.

Can't believe how people cannot grasp that it isn't a condemnation of the whole race. Just like when I call people white trash it isn't a condemnation of all white people across the globe.

And I can't believe you can't see the difference between calling someone "white trash" and "n******"

Ahh ok. But why cant people see that if you are mad at someone and you call them a name, it might be because you know it will piss them off, and not be because its what you feel.


And?

If you are having a fight with someone you know whose mother passed, and you mention that knowing it will piss him off, thats not a big deal?

Difference is they don't use it as an excuse for why they're not successful and they don't go around blaming Germans for their non-successes.

Well, it didn’t take long for one of Cooper’s teammates to come out and question him. It doesn’t really matter what people outside think; what does matter is the guys showing up every day with him.

McCoy said that it hurt “losing a friend” because he “can’t respect a guy like that.” (from Albert Breer). He also wonders if Cooper was showing his true colors in the video where he dropped the N-word in anger.

You got to be kidding me. Try calling me the N word to my face and you'll quickly find out what it means! A white man should never use it if he's a decent man, a man of integrity.

I use the word often when talking with one of my best friends who happens to be black. I use in terms of comedy, and seriousness and he never has a problem with it. He uses derogatory terms for white people and I'm ok with it. It's just words, if it offends you don't say it and don't associate with those who do say it.

You can't control what other people do. LeSean McCoy doesn't have to be friends with Cooper but he is far from a respectful individual. I have a son from a previous relationship who I have been to court for many times for more and more visitation from his dumb arse mother but I've always paid his child support and taken care of him when I have him. We need more Michael Vicks in this situation and less LeSean McCoys.

As far the those saying they can't forget the years of oppression well then I don't know what to tell you. No one alive today was or owned a slave, and all those who lived through reconstruction are also gone. The vast majority of those who achieved so much during the civil rights era are old and will be gone within the next couple of decades. The Chinese, Irish, even the Arabic communities within the US have found success so there is little excuse but inwards. Native Americans are owed something in my opinion and that's about it. There is going to be no reparations so it might be time to move forward.
