Quote from peilthetraveler:
I was actually thinking about this the other day and I think I have a good answer. Its NLP (also known as neuro linguistic programming).
When I was little, black people used to use the word "bad" for the word good. For instance...they would say something like "Hey man, thats a baaaaad jacket" meaning they liked the jacket. So then subconsciously, they think bad things are good because they have linked the word bad with something that is good so if someone was telling them "its bad to rob a liquor store" somewhere in their programmed subconscious, they are thinking its good to rob a liquor store.
Today they still use words like that but the words have been changed a bit. "Dope" for instance. Everyone knows dope is drugs, so when someone says "Hey man, that car is "dope" they link dope with something good, so then when they are offered drugs (dope) they think thats a good thing.
"Player" is another word. Player is associated with a game. Games are fun, so they associate have sex with lots of women better than marriage because games are fun so getting married and "not being a player" means you are not having fun so thats why so many black fathers are not in their kids lives.
Then you have other words like "sick" and "ill" which are also meant to be positive in their language. People that use all those words are basically neurolinguistically programming themselves to be criminals.
I've also seen white kids go bad when mocking the way black people talk and using their speech patterns. First they talk normally, then they use some of those words and accents to mock black people, but without knowing it, they are programming themselves to do bad and before they know it, they are using that type of language all the time and then they will commit crimes too.
