All the support you're getting from fellow haters is not translating into book sales because THE VERY PEOPLE who support your point of view are the SAME NON READERS YOU LAMENT. Look at the responses. Other than spell-check errors (like I made in some of my posts, sorry), many of your commentators seldom use proper grammar, capitalize randomly, and make illogical connections. Is this your market? Really? Who you attracting with all that hate? And why telling like it is can't ever, ever, ever be positive when it comes to your position on blacks? <br /><br />You've expounded prolifically on the ills and woes of blacks. Can I read a Shawn James post where you at least try to bring out a positive aspect of the black condition? If you can't find one, maybe you need to move.

You prove yourself to be so by your ugly assumptions. Yet you came from a two parent home. What does that day about how you were raised? My 15-year-old son knows more about tact, diplomacy and regarding people equally, coming from my single mom household, than you do having had a dad in the house. Didn't help much with your positivism, huh? <br /><br />I know plenty of thoughtless, direspectful, heartless do-nothings from single and married homes alike. As a teacher, some of the most dedicated to their child's education were single moms. I have also known married dads who cheated on wives, beat their kids, gambled away their money, got on drugs, and spent little or no time with their families. Yet the women will never leave so they can keep up appearances and not be relegated to the dreaded state of single motherhood because of people who label them---and their kids---like you do.<br /><br />And you are absolutely right. The single mom blog has nothing to do with what you wrote here. And, as far as you can know, single moms have nothing to do with the disrespect you got from that young man. I know it made you mad. But every wal thing that comes out of your mouth can't be blamed on your mom. Why blame his? <br /><br />Sweet Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02657940296636947001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5121130217304877410.post-71308894218065709282014-09-09T00:28:50.572-07:002014-09-09T00:28:50.572-07:00Your hatred for single moms is astounding. You do...Your hatred for single moms is astounding. You don't know anything about this brother, don't know his circumstances or life story, but you automatically assume that his smart mouth could only have come from having a single mom. Bitch Made? Really? You don't even know this dude or his mom, but because you don't like what he did and said, she must be a bitch and he the product of a bitch. This is what Shawn James thinks is logical reasonable thought.<br /><br />You've got some talent, as a Creative Writing Masters candidate myself, I can see that in your writing samples. But you sabotage yourself with your unwarranted hate and misogynistic thinking. No wonder you're not taken seriously in the writing world. You announce yourself as a spite - spitting closet bully before people have a chance to read your stuff.<br /><br />One thing I didn't see you write (and haven't in all your blogs) is how you tell the hateful, nasty things you say about people to their faces. Instead of condemning this confused, conniving brother AND his mom, recognize that all exist in darkness before seeing the light (par. Plato, Republic). Being a source of that light requires love not hate. You are a part of the problem you say you despise, for you condemn and count worthless your own kind instead of uplifting them. It's easier, but does more harm than good.Sweet Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02657940296636947001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5121130217304877410.post-2739510087656155292014-06-03T04:41:28.647-07:002014-06-03T04:41:28.647-07:00Anonymous:

It's what you do when you have no life skills to get a job. <br /><br />Here in New York Swiping, panhandling are all ILLEGAL and can get you locked up. <br /><br />Red Cross and Salvation Army are 50l(c) nonprofits with books and accounting. <br /><br />Seriously, these dudes have $200 sneakers and a $500 phone and asking for cash looks SAD. You can't justify that as legit. As the other commenter said, what good is that stuff if you're waiting for a bus? <br /><br />My point is what is a well-dressed dude doing begging for change? If you got the money for gear then you can BUY what you need. There's an eBay app on that iphone and PayPal is FREE. The tools for a business are in the hands of the Negros' hands but most refuse to use them.

you miss the point.
Begging is a hustle. ...Shawn,<br /><br />you miss the point.<br /><br />Begging is a hustle. Its a job.<br /><br />You'd be surprised to see how much money a good pan handler makes daily.<br /><br />A lazy pan handler starves just like a lazy person in any other line of work.<br /><br />Don't hate on the brothers. Keep your self loathing to yourself and stop projecting onto black men.<br /><br />Pan handling is a totally legit way to earn a living. You ask for money and people decide whether to give it to you or not. It takes a lot of balls to do that actually - and its legal.<br /><br />ever heard of Red Cross, Salvation Army ???? they do the same thing. In this case at least you know for a fact that the money you give goes to the individual directly to help their needs and not the CEO six figure salary.<br /><br />Stop hating.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
