Who's To Blame?

I don't know whether it's hipocritical or not that Snoop Dogg spoke out on the Don Imus situation. This is a rapper that is notorious for downgrading women in a nice percentage of his songs, not that he's not my boy. But it's that all the black leaders are saying that they are trying to get the black community to stop downgrading our own people to show that it's not okay for anyone else to do it, but at the same time, other folks embrace their negative monikers also. Take white people, they embrace cracker, honkey, redneck, good-ol' boy and the like. We can't say it but they can. Mexicans can say wetback. There are many other examples. But it is bad that black folks are under the microscope but at the same time it's sort of because no one else has been degraded and stepped on as much as us. So is it good to get our entertainers to set a good example, maybe because it seems that our music is the most highly embraced among all races and if they sing it in a song they seem to think it's okay to say it during regular conversation, which both times are wrong. People need to know regardless of music or anything else that there's just some things that can't be said by certain people. A white person will put a rebel flag on their car with the name redneck under it but if a black person says the word, they get as offended as we do when we hear the N word. Maybe we need to throw all the words away, hmm.
