bingolong,
[/i]pride is how a nigga died[/i]

You ain't never lied. I had a friend, used to ballroom dance. He passed on only a few short months ago.

He has prostate cancer. Now you know, if caught early on, you can survive this. Instead, he ignored all of the warning signs and it was too late when he did go to get help. And he only went to get help because he told everyone that his penis did not get hard any longer .

Now that is some silly shit.

And I am PROUD of the decision that you made to swear off of coochie until you jump the broom. That is what is real. Because AINT NO COOCHIE IN THE WORLD WORTH DYING FOR. Black, white,green, yellow coochie - does not matter. I commend you on where your head is on this topic. You have a lot of influence, from your vocal pursuits - I know you can get the word out and I know that you already are.

& on these news reports, I believe them but it is just as many WHITE & LATINO folks dying from that shit too. So EVERYBODY need to trip and recognize.

It is a SERIOUS issue. But when people see these reports they do not pay attention, saying, well it does not relate to me. But oh, it does.

I am with Bingo - damn f&%*king frivilously - that shit is for the birds. I will sit on my ass until I grow cobwebs up in there, if I have too. Besides, you can make love to a woman without using your penis. You can hold, carress, whisper sweet sometings in her ear. And she can do it all for you too! Give you massages, hold your hand in public, look at each other longingly. Things like that.

Hey, can you write a rap about that? Educate us! Black Folks style!

bingolong,

[/i]Black Americans make up 13 percent of the U.S. population but account for over 50 percent of all new cases of HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. That infection rate is eight times the rate of whites. Among women, the numbers are even more shocking—- almost 70 percent of all newly diagnosed HIV-positive women in the United States are black women. Black women are 23 times more likely to be diagnosed with AIDS than white women, with heterosexual contact being the overwhelming method of infection in black America.[/i]

This is scary as hell.

(Are we sure the underlying message isn't "Fuck white women?")

tis2flyyy,
Yeah those clips and that article had me thinking about alot of things.

Thats why I have just sworn off the pussy ....until I am married!!!

You know how crazy that statement sounds to some people in the hood.....but it is something we need to be considering....

When Kanye made that statement awhile back defending how "gays" are attacked blacks every where assumed he was gay but he was pointing out one of the main problems in the black community...Richard said it along time ago..."niggas won't admit to fucking no faggot"...and always he spoke the truth.Brothers ain't coming out and then they ending up passing that "pack" as it is referred to in the hood....pride is how a nigga died...


Murph, Reggie is very underated as a player ...

bingolong,
Thanks for posting this.

Crack was the new slavery
But with AIDS.....clearly, they want us dead.

The BLACK seed sho nuff must be very potent to render this type of attack.

Murphdogg,

True dat and true dat...

But it ain't no secret in the brown community. "The MAN" has always formulated some type of elaborate plan to anialate the BLACK KING.

Brothers (& sistas) - ya'll need to recognize and put a stop to this shit. STOP putting that poison in your veins, start having safe sex, and doing anything that is further degrading your race.

like Spike Lee says in his movie "School Daze" - WAKE UP!

bingolong, trying growing up in Indiana and being a magic fan, people looked at me like I was a satanist. But after Reggie Miller my two way time for my all time NBA fav is magic and kareem.

bingolong,
http://www.abcnews.go.com/Primetime/sto ... 857&page=1 - Seriously......in a few years there will be alot of my peers gone...'

JTF,
Larry Bird is still behind...Magic is still here after all these years....

Murphdogg,

It's much more complicated than that. It has more to do with the socioeconomic nature of keeping the poor poor through ineffective schooling and little hope. Combine this with the get rich quick sceme of illegal drug sales and you have a built in population control.

As far as aids is concerned it was all concocted so that eventually Larry Bird would come out on top in the Magic/Bird debate.

Ask your woman. She's a republican...

bingolong, it's been proven now that Hoover and the FBI destroyed the black panthers, and I think one eventually we'll be able to prove that during the reagan years crack and aids were purposly spread by the right wing.
