I find it very amusing that someone like T.I., who has been a violator of the law many times, is all of a sudden concerned with right and wrong. All of a sudden concerned with breaking the law and doing things the right way. You can’t blame an entire race for unemployment in your own. If you want a job get off yo ass n get one. Illegal or not…ain’t no mexican cause no fukked up riot or flown no plane into no building. So lets place the concern where it needs to be. Instead of making excuses for one’s own lack of progression. Except wut is…n wut is…is that we here to stay. Blacks have been hated on for no reason for many years. N they turn around and try to hate on another minority…get the fukk outta here with all that!

You just don’t get it. TI was really on point with his rap name cause he is TRULY IGNORANT. His remarks was racism on so many levels. All he does is create more racism with the stupid people that really buy into everything he says. I guess having a platinum chain makes you think you’re the rebirth of MLK right? MLK WAS an activist. He fought for rights for everyone, not just black people. You are lucky enough to have the privilege to have an influence in the community and use it to spew hate rather than hope and positive thinking. Who do you think you are to speak out about another race? You don’t see Daddy Yankee speaking out on reparations for slavery, and if he did, I’m sure you’d be the first to talk shit. You’re Truly Ignorant and that’s the end of it.

This was fucking hilarious and it blows my mind that everyone here is taking it seriously and missing the point. TI the “hip-hop activist,” combined with that quote that made me laugh out loud. It’s sarcastic in the first and last paragraph: “And you’d expect such a statement from a southern hip-hop artist to be even rarer still.”

It’s also ridiculous to get defensive about the south when the footnote says, “It’s true. Face it.” I think Bol went over your heads.

Please, T.I is not activist, and what he knows, is very superficial and probaly based off what he hears on the news media on television. There are far greater Hip-Hop activist, this is merely an opinion (a weak one at that) I mean must we not forget Public Enemy, Immortal Technique, Dead Prez, KRS One among many others, these are true hip-hop activist.
T.I is only a puppet.

“Yeah T.I. made his point, and everyone is entitled to theirs, but to say tht immigrants are taking jobs from black people is a “brain fart ” to me. Common, african americans are (generally)the laziest amongst all races, making babies they don’t take care of( even illegal immigrants are more family oriented), smoking weed all day, welfare dependency, illiteracy, black-on-black violence……..and possibly every negative thing one can think of. And don’t tell we(yes, i’m black too) ain’t all like that, cus i know that u know that we all know what uor peoples do. So black brothers and sisters, let’s wake up and change our mentalities, our life styles, and make it happen for our families. Chuch!”

You’re not black, you dumbfuck. You’re a whiteboy, or otherwise non-black posing as one. Most blacks are actually in the middle-class for your information–if you really were black, you’d know that, right?

BTW, most of these illegal workers are simply doing whitey’s dirty work, deliberately creating social antagonisms where none existed before, or were comparatively trivial. These landscaping companies hire illegals because they can pay them next to nothing. And a lot of them, if not most of them, come from the gutters and shantytowns inside Mexico and Central America, and subsequently, don’t know how to conduct themselves in even a half-way polite society. These creeps don’t represent Latinos–they represent THEMSELVES. Many of them act as if they are mentally imbalanced, and it’s painfully obvious many of them are alcoholics or sociopathic types. This is deliberate. Get the lowest type of worker you can get, pay him or her next to nothing, and give him or her a good house in a good neighborhood to keep him quiet. I do not sympathize with this new, false Latino “movement” because it is obviously underwritten by reactionary forces seeking to create chaos the same way, in the seventies and eighties, those same reactionary forces conspired to make Miami into the shithole that it is today with the Mariel boatlift and immigration of thousands of extremely right-wing white Cubans to Florida(while taking great care to keep Haitians out). Speaking of which, how come Haitians, and other Caribbean immigrants are not hired for these “landscaping” jobs? Why only mestizo types from Central America? Because the honky landscaping companies want it that way, knowing that these mestizos are often very ignorant and prone to prejudices.

I think everyone has a different point of view.. but in this case what does that dumb ass know about that??? He don’t know nothing so what he talkin’ about??

and what’s up with southerns being dummer than the northern… that’s just plain stupid…
back to the pint…Nobody here belongs here only native Americans… the rest from Europe or Africa!! and now us Hispanics…

IM from da north, dis person who wrote dis thing about southerns bring dumb is a idiot. its not about where your from its about what you do with yourself in dat area of the world. and about the whole immagrant thing everybody in dis fuckin country is a fucking immagrant, its just that some people got here first and decided to make it illegal to do what they did. what they did is worse than what the immagrants do now because most immagrants i know come here get a job and try to live a better life, unlike the people who got here first who killed innocent native americans in order to live here. so i guess illegal immagrants should have started killing people dat didnt want them here too since thats what they did. oh yeah fuck t.i’s opinion wats he complaning about he gots money so he needs to shut the fuck up and go make another record or somthing stupid ass.ethier way i think that black and brown pride should be kept alive cause they wanna get rid of the hispanics but then they will wanna go back to going after other racis.
