Van Jones: Charles Barkley’s Comments Were ‘Inflammatory,’ ‘Irresponsible’ and ‘Dangerous’

[Karee 4,191]

Yes, he accomplished as a basketball player. This I can definitely admit. However, he was hired as a commentator because he is always shooting off at the mouth and people never know what he is going to say.

Shooting off at the mouth?

Like this guy?

Or this guy?

What qualifies them?

[decocker 7,198]

Just click your heels together and say:

"There's no such thing as a black conservative. There's no such thing as a black conservative."

Who says I agree with everything they say? You assume I do because I'm black. This shows your limited thinking.

I don't assume that you can even comprehend what they say, let alone agree with them.

Do you have any special names for black conservatives, or do you always use the term 'black conservative' when you speak about them? Are they all the same? Cut from the same cloth?

I'm sorry, say that again. Stupidity is hard to comprehend.

you used the words black conservatives dear, you even asked me to repeat them over and over.

and no, i don't normally 'speak about' my friends, rather we speak directly and we address each other by name.

they are all human, so yes, all cut from the same cloth.

it's funny, somebody posted a video here of someone confronting jesse james in a parking lot and telling him to go home, effectively 'we don't want none'.

now back to repeating the same old lines about al and jesse. al and jesse. NO ONE CARES ABOUT AL AND JESSE.

Okay cool. So, whether a person grows up in a poor family and becomes a rich conservative, or grows up in a rich family and becomes conservative, or whether a poor person is conservative, it won't matter? All of their opinions are valid? Or, is there some kind of invisible measuring device by which to determine whether a black conservative's opinion is valid or not?

This is a thread about statements from Charles Barkley.Can you explain the method you used to render Charles Barkley's comments about Michael Brown and Eric Garner as invalid? I mean, are some black people better able and qualified to speak about life as a black person than others? Is there a typical scale that must be used? For example: Must grow up in a poor neighborhood? Must have been previously arrested? Must not have been arrested? And so on....

Al and Jesses and certain VJers do still do care about them. I guess it's these VJers who are keeping them popular. Al and Jesse force their way into situations, no one calls for their specific help.

I'm glad they don't see the shrine I built at home with Jess and Al's picture.

method: charles barkley has been publically saying dumb stuff since i was in middleschool. i wouldn't pay attention to anything he said on any other topic, why would i start paying attention to him now? because he's black? no way.
