You see it on these boards too with their own twists on the 'bootstrap' speeches.

Basically your Bill Cosby/Talented 10th, Dez Bryant discussion where its, 'I did it, so why can't you' not realizing that even with them making it luck had such a H-U-G-E part to play in it; what would have happened to Dez if he had smashed his kneecap in high school football.

The counterpoint is the people on the street utting in that work; community outreach, teachers, social workers...would N-E-V-E-R say that shit to the people they are dealing with because they know that top help rebuild someone's sense of self and esteem that's been beaten down by life its downright insulting to approach the problem with that type of thinking. But talented tenth ass negros have no problem being dicks, don't they, lol.
