Blacktree!!! Let me ask you this do you agree with affirmative action? or are you against it and affirmative action has Allowed Blacks to enter a College with lower test scores than Whites Applying at the same School and i have Seen first hand Blacks Being Hired Where I work That got the Job with unbelievable low Qualifications When Whites with Higher Qualifications applied for the same Job if you have Gov Contracts you have To Hire a certain amount of Blacks or lose the Contract

zestyy - And you are a coward, anybody who feels that hiding behind an anonymous username and calling people names makes them anything more than a sucker, a coward, a wimp, is just fooling themselves. People read your comments and laugh at you. You would never say any of the words you type in the face of any of the people you direct your comments to. Which makes you pretty much, a pussy (excuse my french viewers, sorry had to tell it like it is).

[zestyy]

Stupid Niggers You can accomplish anything in America you set your Mind too if you get off your Ass and work for it to use your race card as an excuse for your Downfalls then you deserve to have Nothing!!! and The Niggers need to stop listening to idiots like Spike Lee

[blacktreemedia]

your just a coward. You get on here and all of a sudden become a tough guy, but you are a wimp. You would never say any of this to somebodies face. You are a sucker, a coward, a chump, you got beat up after school everyday. You are a fag, and not in the gay since of the word, just the sissyfied since of the word. Get a life.

White folks really get on my nerves when they feel that black folks are a race of a bunch of complainers. His view can only come from the oppressor. Turn his ass black and he will see how his life will change-We aint asking for special treatment but at the same time dont act like there's not a deep embedded racial problems in this country.

[ignoranceandwant]

Spike makes a point. It sucks to see serious black films get outgrossed by ridiculous "urban comedies". Personally, I don't see why black films should only attract black audiences, but I know that often whites feel that black films were "not made for them".

READ BETWEEN THE LINES !! Spike Lee says this movie was barely me .he cant create the moves he wants due to the industry aka "illuminat". 1:02 he says if he creates a "cooney baffoonery" .there gonna give me all the money i want. Now ask who is "they"? Then research the hollywood industry and you can find out the truth. But Before you give an opinion on this comment take the time to study the industry owned by the ELITE aka illuminati .

@jacksok2 see my response below...and r you going to tell me that black people still dont have a chance in this country???? all the sports i watch r filled with black multi-millionaires, the rap artists are mostly black and millionaires, theres a black supreme court justice, black president, black chairman of the republican party, and on and on...the opportunities exist, but if you use your race as an excuse and feel sorry for yourself, well, that is another problem.....

@migo53333 They're like fucking cancer, ruining EVERY neighborhood they enter. I've seen neighborhoods change in a matter of a few months. Fucking horrible.

[kurt9876543210]

you know for a guy who acts real thoughtful with his obama style pauses in speech, he has bush like reflexes when he talks

[kurt9876543210]

i love how he thinks that whites are somehow inferior

[HeadToucher]

This interview had me thinking of Tyler Perry's coon ass

[1studentoftruth]

"the black men should take responsibility and take care of the children they father". I guess that all sums it up right? It's the "black man's" for not taking care of their children, right? What talk shows and tv shows having you been watching that would make you believe that is the problem? I guess your implying that black men are irresponsible, as a stereo type of course, without looking into other correlatives on why the situation may be the way it is? That's a narrow minded view.

[migo53333]

I saw an sdd in the real estate papers in the city......i moved my wife and kids up to the country.......to the same kind of neighborhood! but where the blacks r changed into a ghetto.....a very unsafe ghetto!!!! Its called responsibility, black men have to own up!!!!!!

[migo53333]

yes it is because there r many who moved here from all directtions and the ones who came from the inner cities are the ones who virtualy turned at least 4 areas into ghettos complete with drugs ,drive by shootings and many other crimes, the black men should take responsibility and take care of all the children they father....
