But it's not. At all. In any way. Pretty damn sad this is how you find kicks and giggles. There's a name for folks who derive pleasure from the pain of others... And a diagnosis.

It just seems crazy to me with the race relations thing in the US.
In Britain we gave up the race divide back in the 80's, our gangs are mixed race and white supremacists have only the internet to chat with each other because society scorns them now.
You should start by calling people just 'American' instead of the stupid 'African American' thing, my mate is black and she is as British as me, not African British, just British.

I’m old enough to remember when kids used to say, “eeny, meeny, miney, moe - catch a n**ger by the toe. If he hollers, make him pay, fifty dollars every day.”
Probably a Southern thang. I don’t think too many people say that any more.

Quote the assumption. I never heard that one from my southern roots. We said "catch a tiger by the toe; if he hollered let him go."

He spoke the way people his age would speak. And as others have pointed out, cotton picking is something everyone would do. It's a condition of poverty as much as condition of race. Poverty in the deep south is hardly confined to black folks.

Are people taking it the wrong way or is the MSM trying to make people take it the wrong way?
