you backed up the idea of his teachings, by going against them? |
Omigosh Salvaged from Archive | Posted: 26 Feb 2007, 00:00 · [Salvaged from Archive] I fully support him. There is nothing "cool" about sounding ignorant. |

LOL nice.
Ok I completely agree that all U.S. citizens should learn to speak proper English for the simple fact that is very important if you want people to take you seriously.
However part of me is a little bit divided on this subject. As much as it drives me nuts to hear people talk slang, jive, improper English, whatever you want to call it, it is a part of their traditions and culture and I'd hate to see it done away with altogether.
Hell, some Rap and Hip-Hop wouldn't even be the same without it! |

Um, no. It's not part of any tradition or culture. It's part of being a moron. |

Frost Salvaged from Archive | Posted: 26 Feb 2007, 00:00 · [Salvaged from Archive] I don't care what race you are... If English is your first language and you can't speak it correctly, I wouldn't hire your dumb ass... |

Yeah, he would be considered racist by targeting the black community and make them look like idiots that can't talk right. |

Moreover, a lack of education. |
