Comment: who even eats from Taco Bell anymore - ten year olds?

Name: McNasty
Comment: LOL! Taco Bell sounds like they're trying to drag the man back through the mud becsause they didn't get what they wanted. They also act like they've spoken directly to him instead of his lawyer. Gurlfrand everyone I know that did stopped - turnover is too high and there are way too many pis.sed off mexicans in the area to feel comfortable.

Comment: This is silly. Taco Bell clearly infringed upon his image in their silly attempt to garner some publicity for their food. Whatever they think of 50, they don't have a right to use his name/image/likeness to promote their food without his permission. Case closed!

Comment: 50 Cent is one ugly brother. This dude's opened mouth always looks like the back of a rat.

Name: BlackEye
Comment: I'd have been nice, but I have no empathy for Blacks who willfully get rich by performances that intentionally encourage our people (especially our children) to kill each other. I wish Black folk would stop buying his music and for Heaven's sake don't let your kids buy it. Blacks are about the only people who will continue to put money into the pockets of artists who willfully teaching us to exterminate ourselves. (Hosea 4:6 "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge)

Name: McNasty
Comment: If you're allowing 50 and all those like him to influence your kids you better check yourself first. Second - I wonder what your picture would look like.

Name: Gurlfrand
Comment: so true, McNasty - why would you allow your children to listen or be influenced by 50 - unless you aren't paying them no attention yourself.....

Name: RodEckstein
Comment: BlackEye, co-sign. Every other race looks at getting ahead, while our so called celebs and BET continually puts hits out on our kid's heads. 50 is one of the main culprints and makes no apologies for doing it. If you check back in, notice the two typical negative negroes who commented on you above me. After all, how dare anyone come in here and speak out against the negative portrayal of our people. Suppose that would be too much like right. It's a interesting how Black folk in here, no matter the story, most are always take the negative view and everyone follows like lemurs, but I guess that's why we're at the bottom of every list as a people. Too bad in 2008 too many of us have the "we's N____ggers and we's always gon' be N____ggers, so leave us-ses alone" mentality and choose to lynch anyone with an opposing view. I'll check back to see all the bullet holes in my computer from that type laced with the typical foul mouthed fare. Watch out for being banned from EUR for not conforming.

Comment: RodEckstein, let's be real here. You "appear" to be on a high horse. Don't you think you jumped to a big conclusion? You are the one "lynching" someone with an opposing view. The other poster's view is different from yours, and you are flaming them in a subtle way. You called them "two typical negative negroes". That is saying a lot. How do you even know they are negroes/black? You do know that people of different ethnicities frequent this board right? There is no doubt that you dislike 50. I have no problem with it. Everyone is not going to dislike whom you dislike. People take the negative view? Come on, anything about 50 on here is negative and some people in here are speaking positive on the man. You're so goody goody that you are off. WAY OFF on this instance. Follow like "lemurs"? LOL! It's LEMMINGS homey. You make yourself look bad when you get things wrong.

Comment: RodEckstein>You get a standing ovation from me today!!! and BlackEye>co-sign to the max. RodEckstein, my sentiments exactly. I share about this all the time on this forum, that we are the only race of people who will allow other Blacks to curse, disrespect, and promote negativity to our children, AND THEN, like a fool buy it!!! A lot of these rappers who perpetrate THIS CON laugh all the way to the bank because they KNOW HOW STUPID so many of us are. We reward them and help them to build their empires. Never mind how torn up a lot of our hoods look. Instead of denouncing them, we crown them and put them on thrones!! Didn't you know? It's REAL EASY to financially pimp Black folks. And, don't get me started on the profanity and disrespect on this site. It's not uncommon to be called a B or worse just for expressing a DIFFERENT point of view. And RodEckstein, you're right about the bullets. You better duck while there's still time. LOL

Name: Gurlfrand
Comment: how sad......are people have a loooooong way to go.

Name: McNasty
Comment: Parents are their children's first and last line of defense and if you don't want them listening to this music like I said, check yourself. As far as being at the bottom of the list - not me mickyflick! that's you low rent darkies that accept no responsibility for the part you played in certain music becoming so mainstream. Also, since 50 isn't raising your kids and they're still bad as hell - whose fault is that? If you could still blame it on the boogie - you would! Its a new day and if you can't accept opposing views there are websites where everybody shares a brain - I suggest you find them cause I will always post what I think, believe or feel. You talk about that music disrespecting us - you and sewrite did a damn fine job of that yourselves - fukkin' hypocrites!

Name: McNasty
Comment: Uhuh Gurlfrand, just some of our people - not all but let them keep coming here eventually they'll learn something!lmao

Name: McNasty
Comment: RE do you even realize how negatively you represented yourself today?

Name: RodEckstein
Comment: I don't take back a single word of my comment, because I meant it. Mine accusers must be guilty as charged, hence the insensitivity. Also, my mom's Black and dad's Jewish so thanks for letting me in on the fact there's other races out there. I had no clue. And I love it when some negative person doesn't have much of an argument, so the only thing they can do is make fun of the fact someone forgot to turn on their "eurweb.com spell check". WEAK. People click into Eurweb to read news about the African American community (entertainment) and hopefully indulge in some stimulating conversation via comments. Unfortunately most of what ends up here is toilet mouthed negative rants and a bunch of folk calling each other N____gger, B____ches, Ho' and men totally disrepecting Black females. Hopefully one day Blacks will finally learn to respect one another, the arts will respect them, our our kids will stop shooting each other and we'll finally go further as a people. (Standing by with my bullet proof vest.)

Comment: >Well,Well a little tension here today. RodEckstein and Blackeye I concur with both of you totally.Many a time I've heard negative comments about 52 cent and some of these other so-called rappers.I never say a word because they are right.Whether someone is checking their kids or not,it still remains the fact that some of these rappers are and do bring our people down.The buck starts with them.Peace and Blessings!

Name: TesticAl
Comment: LMAO at you saying your mom is black and your dad is Jewish. What is that supposed to mean? Jewish is a race? NO IT ISN'T. It's a religion/custom/culture. According to you there are no black Jewish people, or any other creed of people that are Jewish, hence you stating that your pops is. In your words, WEAK. Adding to the fire, you didn't have to spell check anything. You didn't mispell "Lemur", you were so tied up being a pain to the others you just got the animal wrong. A lemur and a lemming are totally different. We're sure you knew that already. Pointing out things is what I do on here. Since you are finger pointing at others, I might as well finger point at you. You sound real mad. Nobody "in here" is using profane language. Since the board is profane and blacks don't respect each other are, LEAVE. You will be doing yourself a justice. You won't so you continue to complain. WEAK...REAL WEAK

Comment: McNasty>I'm NOT disrespecting our people by speaking out against degrading gangsta rap. And too many of our young people ARE influenced by that garbage. They worship those rappers and want to be like them. It's ONE of the many reasons that the violence in our hoods is UNREAL. Please note that I said it's ONE of the reasons. You also PROVED my point about the disrespectful posters on this site who start using profanity when someone disagrees with you. Look at the bottom of your post where you start cursing. Compare your post to mine. I state my opinion WITHOUT resorting to vulgarity. It's no wonder so many of our young people have the filthest mouths. Look who they got it from. I hope they start bleeping out even more vulgarity on this site. Restore some RESPECT to this site. You sure aren't helping the cause.

Name: SewRite
Comment: McNasty>In your post you also defend your right to express your point of view. Well, the other posters and I, we have that same right. So why are you putting us down for doing the same thing you're doing? Who's really the hypocrite?

Name: RodEckstein
Comment: TesticAl, the name one choses for himself says alot about the personality. Anyhow, keep sweating the small stuff. I'm certain that'll get you far in life. Just as in certain circles refering to someone as a "brutha or a sustah" lets you know they're referring to a Black person. Just the same, in most circles, referring to dad's "race" as Jewish is understood to mean he is white and of Israeli descent. When necessary, I use Jewish in here so as not to have mention of him attacked and reduced to you guys term "YT". However the U.S. did declare "Jews" a race back in the 1980's for specific reasons. Do your homeowork. Yes I am aware that Whoopi Goldberg, Nell Carter and Sammy Davis converted to Judaism and I am well aware of Ethiopian Jews, but fact remains that the majority of Jews are "white". I don't regret my posts. I will not let the negative, nit-pickly folk in here do that to me. I come to Eurweb for stories about my people I don't always get through MSM and perhaps the one or two people in the comment section who can step away from the crowd and engage in stimulating (positive) conversation. It's worth wading through the muck of profanity and negativity to get to that one. And yes, I love it when someone is bold enough to speak out against the current state of Black entertainment with all its thugs and self-hatred. So feel free to go through everything I type with a fine tooth comb looking for errors, if it gives you something to do with your day. In the mean time, I'll keep speaking out against the gangstas, pimps and ho' mentality in the stories that's getting our young people murdered. And I'll continue to co-sign with others who are bold enough to do the positive thing. No shame in my game, brutha'. It amazes me that Black people choose to uphold stereotypes and tear down people who speak out against harmful celebs, rather than speak out against the harmful celeb themselves. (Helmet, shield and bullet proof vest on.)

Name: SewRite
Comment: RodEckstein>But if they spoke out against the harmful celebs than WHO would they listen to? LOL. Can I borrow your bullet proof vest?

Name: RodEckstein
Comment: SewRite, I'm with you on that 100%. And you don't need a vest. I've got your back.

Name: TesticAl
Comment: Rod, yes a name says a lot about a personality? LOL! Ok, and you say I'm nitpicking. Look at my name, that's where life begins if you want to be technical. Don't put me in the category of the people that use the term "YT" on on here. That is stupid to me and for the most the people are scared to write white at work. Do my homework? I've done that already. You need to brush up on yours with the mistakes and assumptions you have made. LOL at you speaking out against gangster and stuff on a MESSAGE BOARD! That isn't going to work. Get out of cyberworld and preach that madness to someone on the street who will listen. And you say we're tearing someone down?

Name: TesticAl
Comment: You come to EUR about stories about your people? Come on now. This is merely an entertainment/tabloid site. You have outlandish thinking if you think you are going to find some "stimulating positive" coversation here. The same articles are nearly posted every day and everyone talks smack about people. I'm sure you know of other sites that have more substance than here, and you have the audacity to say I'm nitpicking. Get outta here! I take this site for what it's worth. If I want a serious conversation it damn sure won't be here (try real life). That's like coming to a basketball game with a hockey stick. It's odd and it won't work. That's just the way it is.

Comment: If a rapper can bring your as.s down you weren't shat to begin with!

Name: McNasty
Comment: Sewrite you and eckstein! You don't like the way we communicate or the way we choose to express ourselves but you're here. As for these rappers - all of them can't be limited to their lyrics and especially when they create foundations and give money to black worthy causes. Before you bash any entertainer check to make sure you're doing as much or more for the community than they are while you're spewing your hot air all over the damn place.

Name: SewRite
Comment: McNasty>Yes, I'm here. The purpose of this discussion forum is for the posting of opinions. You just don't get it. I don't EXPECT EVERYONE to agree with me. You have the right to express your point of view. The problem I have with you and too many on this site is the UNNECESSARY use of profanity to get your point across. So it's ok for a rapper to denigrate women as long as they turn around and write a check? Yeah, a MARKETING PLOY like that will keep the fools DISTRACTED about how they're really being disrespected and CONNED. In other words, they will do whatever they have to do to keep the money rolling in. Finally, I'm doing something for my community. Children and young people aren't hearing foul language from my mouth. Can you say the same?
