What Stereotype Are You

[M Two One]

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting TheBlackMamba:</div><div class="quote_post">Believe this if you want, cuz this is 100% truth, two years ago, I got a huge knife through security, twice. Once through LAX when I was departing, and then when I was returning from Detroit, I got the same knife through Detroit Metro. The knife was about this big, http://files.myopera.com/kg1.foresights/al...s.png_thumb.jpg

It was a hunting knife, very sharp. I didn't know it was in my bag, honestly. My flippin' brother was lookin' through my CD's on the plane, and out of no where he goes MATT WHAT IS THIS (thank God everyone around us was asleep), and flippin' there is a huge ass knife in my backpack. Security is a joke. I don't think airports are any safer.</div>

Of course I believe you, my friend got one of his guns packed into the plane without notice before. I never wrote that the security is any better anywhere in the world, I'm just letting you know that they can be abusive for asbolutely no reason. Is there a reason two guys have to slam me into a wall over a small wallet chain and another pointing a gun at my face with the intent to possibly end my life over nothing? I really don't think so.

No, I'm not trying to counter-argue you. I was just saying, cuz I saw the word security in your posts and that's all I read.

I completely agree with you. They go to extreme measures to make it seem like they're trying to change something, but they're not. I don't think security has improved one bit.

Ah, not close. I'm Mauritian (born and raised in Canada/'sauga though). I often get mistaken for being coolie (guyanese), indian or mixed with black

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting P.A.P.:</div><div class="quote_post">Tamils are crazy in the GTA. I swear today at the Uni Fair in TO there were hundreds of them, all of them in their big clique, with their permed/long/curly hair. I know quite a few tamils from connections (I live right beside a Tamil co-op building infact), and if you're tamil and you have beef, a whole bunch of them will come down. Like every other murder or crime incident I see on the news in the GTA has something to do with Tamils. They're also like the biggest hustlers in the GTA, with their credit card scams, drugs and all.

</div>

the facts are not on your side. most homicides are black on black, unfortunately. i had a sociology prof named ezeonu who now teaches at brock who did his thesis on this very subject (black on black crime). there is a landmark study released on new years in 2004 by UofT criminologists who found that if u were not black, u would have a statistically negligible chance of getting killed in the gta.

i concur with fraud but u need to understand that tamils are bottom feeders at best. from what i heard- the russian mob and triads run everything drug related as well as fraud at the highest levels.

Well I wasn't basing it on facts, I was just saying making a bold statement about the increasing crimes in the GTA involving Tamils.

Interesting comments about black people in the GTA though from the UofT criminologists.

criminologists base their findings on facts, your were completely off-base. and for everyone else- the uoft homicide rate is relatively low compared to most major cities.

yeah intelligence is kinda a prerequiste to understand their findings as well.

At what point did I show I did not understand their findings? I wasn't aware of their findings tell you mentioned it, where I then said "interesting", well because I found it interesting. I didn't at any point disagree with you and you for whatever reason decide to state the obvious that they base their findings on facts. I am not a criminologist that attends UofT, nor did I research everything about crimes in the GTA before posting. My comments about Tamils and their involvement in crimes in the GTA where I said " Like every other murder or crime incident I see on the news in the GTA has something to do with Tamils" was simply an exaggeration based on me hearing or seeing more Tamil related crimes.

lesson of the day- don't believe everything u hear cause u might be listening to people who just don't know.

My bad, I meant to say from what I read in published criminology reports.

How does that apply to PAP's statement though? He said he has noticed more and more murders in the GTA being reported by news channels as the actions of Tamils. People who just don't know? We're listening to the news reporting about people killing other people. Especially considering its GTA media, I really don't think it's a coverup to expose Tamils or whatever you're assuming it is. I know you haven't stated that obviously, but your comment makes it seem like he's getting his information off random hobos on the street who're spreading the word on the latest murders to teenagers walking by them.

good observation, and i am. rumours are for high school girls, its time for people around the world to move out of that station in life and get into the fact finding stage. btw- we all access to newsreports and everyone knows it was black kids getting maimed by bullets in rexdale and jane & finch.

"Light skin pimp pretty boy". Man, I'll f**k somebody up. Try me.

^ Actually, if you don't act girly, pretty boys are pretty well respected. I'm like you only more school-oriented and aware of life outside of high school then the average 'gangster' pretty boys at our school (not sayin you're one of those gangster guys, just using them for comparison).

 

[Avery]

Buddy it's stereotype. That measn your initial impression you get when you SEE the person NOT when you get to know them or know their habits. And for the record I don't do girly things.

I just get my haircuts twice a week and always make sure I look decent when I go out. That's all. But it only takes me 5 mins to get dressed and I will get dirty and not scared to get my sneakers cuffed up. Also, I DO NOT look at car windows to make sure my collar is properly popped up or if I anything on my face.

 

[30 standing ver]

Well since I live in Hawaii as a black man. Automatic thought is that I'm military since most brothers are military that live down here. And females even when knowing that. I know they see my pictures on myspace. They tend to be a little in-shocked when they hear me talk. I get a little annoyed by that because if they payed attention to my pix, I'm the only black person in those hundred of pix I got up there in myspace. Accept for one pic. But anyways I'm not gonna sound like the black men they're use to being borned and raised with my hawaiian half.

 

[Casual]

I'm a stereotypical guy who doesn't fit into any stereotypes.

Avery you're a pretty boy
