  1. THANK YOU!!! :lmao::lmao::lmao:

    Damn...at least fool us and make us not believe that ur #TEAM Bee and Jay. Its apparent their anus is where the nomination meetings take place. :mellow: I just CANT.

    LOOOOOL in their anus ! I agree.. that really is pathetic. I don't think they'll go anyway. Looks like they're having alot of fun in the UK right now

  2. Corrections:

    UK employers have to employ a certain amount of people from minority background.

    UK government has black people in the cabinet.

    The fact is that the UK is no better or worse than America for black people. It just depends on whether you'd prefer to be called a ni99er to your face or behind your back basically

    sorry Paul, but that's absolute BULLSHIT ... ethnic minorities in the UK don't even come half as close to the level of success that those in the U.S do. Why are so many ethnic minorities in the UK convinced that britain is so accomodating for all minorities in every field. It's absolute bullshit. Sorry, but Americans surpass the UK on so many levels in terms of social mobility for all. Not saying the UK doesn't provide (to an extent) but it's definatly no major mover in that department

    You referenced MP's who are in the House of commons. The Cabinet and the House of commons are two entirely different divisions of the government. Cabinet has 22 members, all white men, middle to upper class and the head of most major government departments. They make the most important decisions on legislation. In my eyes, that's disgraceful. Compared to Washington DC, blacks work right throughout all the important governing bodies in every legislative department. Don't get it twisted, because they DO NOT in the UK. I'm sorry, the US may have it's share of bullshit, but even I can say that as a brit who now lives in the US, the US has done extremely well in social progress for minorities in comparison to the UK in such a short space of time. Damn, it's 2012 and the UK still hardly even makes any of the black footballers the team managers in the premier league. It's wayyyyy behind

  3. Actually, they kinda do. The sole reason why America prides itself on "equality" is due to slavery and the need to eradicate White supremacy in America. When Whites are taught about slavery, the guilt takes over, and they feel the need to give leniency to Blacks. This is why we have things like affirmative action, government sponsoring to HBCUs, and other Black owned and operated businesses supported by "The Man". I'm sure you've heard of a little something called "White Guilt", and that stems from the shame Whites feel for their ancestors employing slavery on Blacks. A good percentage of American government over the last couple of centuries has been restructured to accommodate Blacks in America.

    Very good point. The UK is still stuck in a very old class system which isn't particularly interested in progress for ethnic minorities unless you're from a certain background. Ethnic minorities in the UK sort of recognise this but they in no way take affirmative action with it like in the US which is something I applaud the US for even though it's a struggle. Minorities in the UK are farrr too tolerant of the inbalance in social mobility in the UK. The UK cabinet doesn't even have a single ethnic member, so yes , race is very apparent
