Stereotypes are Awesome - the weak meme

So I've been seeing this dumb ass picture for a while now but it seems to have picked up steam again for some reason. This is one of those things a lot of black people are trying to put out there when talking about judging people or looking at someone to see what kind of person they are before you know them. Now I'm not trying to say that Snoop is the worst person in the world but this

Hoodie Up - movement or hipster propaganda?

Happy Thanksgiving

Okay first and foremost, Happy Thanksgiving to every one out there. Now let me get into my angry ranting.What is up with these rapper ass dudes and all of the damn scarves, handkerchiefs, flags, and bandannas they're wearing.
