What a hilarious and false generalized statement. Yes. We also spaz out if you don't pull our pants up for us when we sag.

Well obviously he doesn't mean all of them, and he probably just notices the spazzers more because they act like idiots and cause a scene.

It's not a big deal about the handicapped kid, he'll be fine.
 
As a African american that video is an incredibly ridicoulous stereotype, and for some guy who says Black people expect things done for them?
I for one have never asked for help and really dont want it, im aware I'm seen differently and the general impression of a black male tennager is "Gangsta, shoot em up, babies daddy, basketball playing, thug" i fall into to one of those; guess which one 0.o lol.

This sorta got off topic, but my opinion dont go into to life or anything expecting anything to be handed to you; unless your parents are freakin billionaires, which most people's arent you will have to work hard all your life, and will come across some victories, and some losses, crippled, fully abled, mental-disadvantaged, everyone has something they're better at, and you something your better at.
 
Yes, but do you really think the kind of African American that goes on Pokemon sites is one of those "shoot em up" guys? Don't think so. Don't take me a racist, though. I'm not, but this is what I have observed, living in Atlanta all my life.

Hey, hey you don't know that could of been the one, moving on I understand its different in different places, I lived in mostly the North and West known for being more tolerant than the South, I got cousins down there and i notice the major differences in our intellect and personalities.

I aware your not racist, but there are some still out there that video posted just potrays to them that's what our culture is all about.
 
you have seen certain black people act a certain way and have extended that behavior to their race. I believe that is word for word the definition of racism.

please stop derailing the thread though, although i think we've all reached a consensus on the issue.
 
To be fair, he extended that behavior to their race in his city. Which is plausible; when I say most black people at my school are walking stereotypes and annoy the fuck out of me I'm not being racist, I'm telling the truth.
 
Wow this thread is diverging.

Anyway, OP I really think you shouldn't worry about it. It is better to be fair and play your best instead of giving the handicapped guy false hope. Eventually in life he will have to face the fact that he may not be as good at things as other people - he can't be spoonfed forever. Just put it behind you and don't think on it too much, because you did nothing wrong in playing your best =).

Agreed 100%. You can't just let the boy win and give him false hope that he is actually excellent on the game.

Also, I behaved similar to how that boy did whenever I lost my first few tournaments. I was very angry and was upset that I lost so quickly in the first round. However, after awhile, like you're supposed to do after failing a few times, I practiced more and more until I was able to win one of those tournaments! Yes, he may be handicapped, but you cannot say that he cannot succeed in playing games because of it (unless it hurts his vision). One of my college friends is handicapped with missing fingers, horrible knees (that require knee braces all the time), and short arms. He has to have an aid around him at all times to help him pick up things, carry his food, and everything like this, since he can't grab anything with his hands. However, he is the best Halo player I have ever seen! Watching him play is quite incredible!
