Seeing as how they bring the entire race down with their constant ignorance, flashing of the race card and their lack of openess to gays and stuff that isn't "black".

My man what are you trying to say? I'm on welfare and food stamps if you got a problem with it come down to the west coast and let's bump I ain't afraid of you, you think you're all big and bad because you're behind a computer but if I ever saw you in real life i'd gladly rub my food stamp card in your face. I don't like to work and I have four kids so I think I have the right not to work my hubby is a janitor at a school and we can't afford food we only have enough money to buy cigs and beer and we buy food with a food stamp card given to us by the government, and we buy cigs and beer with our own money. The government pays my bills house bill, water bill, phone bill etc. and i am a damn good women so dont say nonthing about me. You better hope i never see yo stank azz if i do its K.O time

I know ignorant people from every culture. I feel very bad for the slavery that went on in America, and it cannot be taken back. Black people were however not the only people to be enslaved, there were many other races that were enslaved. From my perspective, in the black culture; being ignorant is cool. One of the smartest people I know is a black women, and she doesn't think ignorance is cool. Social pressures are of powerful influencing powers. It makes me sad to see ghetto people who have given up on themselves, and bring their race down.

I thinks it's because they are isolated,from a wide variety of people.
When a person grows up in that same environment they become ignorant.
People who are ignorant are people who are close minded.
For the young people that grow up in that environment have more pressure being they don't always fit in.
If they don't share the same values.
Even people that are not from the "ghetto" can be very ignorant.
Simply because they don't understand it and they prejudge without trying to understand it.

Not all people from the ghetto are ignorant. I grew up in the ghetto and I was always being teased for being too proper but my mother raised me to behave intelligently and I'm thankful for that.

Well you answered your own question. They're the ghetto kind, just like White trash types make White Americans look dumb and ignorant.

Every race has a few bad apples that make the bunch look bad. The answer to your question is because those ppl are ghetto.
Very simple.

Are you implying that blacks are the only ignorant people when they live in the ghetto?

every person from the ghetto isnt ignorant
Just because someone doesnt agree with someone's sexuality doesnt mean that they are ignorant.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion whether its right or not.
