Tech, if you have been paying attention at all in the last decade or so, you cannot possibly have missed this one. I have no examples. I do not follow the rap scene close enough to regurgitate lyrics on demand. Hell. I don't even know the "artists'" names. I'm not going to surf the net looking for them to satisfy you; you can do that yourself and have proven to be quite adept at finding what you want. I'm also most certainly not going to fall for the age-old dodge that "if he can't produce examples, evidence, it must not be true". This has come up in the mainstream media time and time again, only to be met with the collective yawn of our nation. I'm sure if you dig you'll find your own examples.
So HardDrive, I can only assume that you have fallen in with the camp that claims their current behavior is excusable because of this four hundred years of oppression. They have every right to be angry today because of the sufferings of their forefathers, right? Right... ALL white people are guilty, right? Right... You appologize and make excuses for others' bad behavior; never expecting or demanding better from them. You are unwittingly oppressing them with that attitude, all the while climbing up on your high horse to decry their past oppression. That, my friend, is truly absurd.
