The Jackal:
Meanwhile, we pay TV license to watch uninterrupted quality programmes on BBC.
Have u ever wondered why BBC don't show commercial ads?
Our TV License has covered all that. . . . . . Talk about CLASS!!!!!

YourFather:
One thing I don't get is why someone would think because they think one way everyone else should follow suit, I mean, that was actually an intelligent answer, in a contest like at, a bit of humour doesn't go a miss, would you have come up with such an answer under that pressure, no!

4Him:
You can wash a slave, give him new clothes and sit him next to George Bush but you can't wash away the slave mentality.
I have also noticed that on public buses . . . whites sit very close to the driver while the blacks head straight for the very rare (most often times to make a ruckus!).

There are several spin-off questions from this one too . . .
- why do blacks have hoods and whites don't?
- Why do blacks revel in speaking ebonics (a by-product of slavery)?
- why do blacks think using the term "nigga" is cool? The next time Jesse Jackson comes to ask another Imus off the air i'll scream.
- what does it mean to "act white"? Is education, good manners, proper command of english language an exclusive preserve of whites?

4Him:
sorry, i just had to make that correction.
To a certain extent girl22 is right, a lot of the upheaval the world experiences today is as a direct result of European interference.

Isnt it funny that NO SINGLE European nation is skewed like much of Africa and the middle east? In most European nations, they have ONE majority language, ONE majority ethnic group . . . however in Africa you have nations with more than 3-4 major ethnic groups and over 150 separate languages . . . these are already recipes for disaster.

While the Europeans are busy developing we are still struggling with how to co-exist among ourselves. Why is Iraq imploding today? Because the Brits in all their wisdom foistered 3 completely separate groups of people and forced them into one nation . . .
While fairly stable Iran is mainly Shia and Saudi Arabia is mainly Sunni, Iraq is both Shia, sunni AND kurds who don't even regard themselves as Arabs!!

Can you imagine what a nation with 30% Jews, 25% Germans, 9% arabs, 16% English would look like?

The one European nation similar to us is Belgium which is half Dutch and half French . . . even they are already talking of secession.

L0L, well, I just learnt somethin'. She was right but that wasn't my point either way because the topic says to ask African-Americans questions and I
asked why black folks like to sit at the back of the bus.I was havin' this argument with uspry1 when girl22 quoted me and started askin' me if i knew how

the name Nigeria came about. Good thin' she asked 'cause i might never have known but last time i checked they are called 'African-Americans' too. Isn't it the same white folks who gave it to them?? If 'Africa' means whatever she posted why do they accept it too?? The word America is actually a Spanish

word, i heard which i don't know its meanin', neither do they but they answer it by the way, right?? These are the kind of things that are inevitable, you have no choice. My point is, why do they sit at the back of the bus?? C'mon, that cld be avoided now. Segregation is over so why do they now want to enslave themselves and later say that 'whites are not the cause of their problems but they do cause a lot'??

4Him:
Flora Shaw (Lord Lugard's girlfriend) coined the name "Nigeria" in 1922.

Teehehehe, really?? Oh well,i don't know what to say.

girl22:
Its the same way you call yourself Nigerians despite the fact the British carved out the country called it Nigeria and told you, you were Nigerians.

Chiogo, do you know what Nigeria was called befroe the British renamed it. Do you know what your people call yourselves before the British named you Nigerians?

Do you even know what Africa was called before the European named it Africa?

The word Africa was derived from the one of the invaders who captured Africa. Who was also called so called Africans savages. So basically its an insult for you to even call yourself Nigerian or an African.
These were names given to you by people who called you savages.

Sonye:
I don't know why some people like talking like they don't have sense. So you mean that Simon Cowel, Paula Abdul and Randy Jackson are looking out for people's dicks. So what will you say about other female winners? This is talent they are looking for not dicks DUMB HEAD

I think your brain needs washing man!!

He can pronounce his name, during the first week, in his interview, he said the real pronunciation. . .but since people kept pronouncing it wrong, he figured he'd just let them call him that way. . .easier on their tongues[/color]

Exactly!Same case with me but my friends call me my nickname.

@Sonye, yup, i believe in him too.

Oh really, how long you been stayed in MA? Is this where you live in Boston MA as you stated all black folks sitting at the back of the city bus just like back old good at time of segregation days? You said they degraded and enslave themselves!

I had been visited to Boston MA few years ago---i do not see myself personally on the city public bus as well as train riding as you mentioned above quote.

That is flatly not true! What a laugh!

In every major cities in the USA, where public transportation provide, the reason why black folks enjoying to sit at the back of the bus is [b]BECAUSE IT IS EASY ACCESSIBLE TO GET OFF THE BUS STOP at the rear exit door, not because of segregation days habits! [/b]
