I’m 100% black, 100% man, and 100% conservative, republican, and Christian. The erosion of two parent black families 1964 to present is the biggest tragedy we never talk about.
Welfare pushed men out and took stigma and shame out of having children out of wed lock. It destroyed family structure. Kids raised by single mother grew up without structure and boundaries and by 1980s gaxxng culture took hold and rap started to spread. Since then this music and this gaxxng culture has done untold damage, and it’s still goi g on. This has to stop and tradition family values need to come back to restore blk family. Otherwise this rap and gaxxngs, and glorification of single motherhood will continue to damage blk family and blk young people.
Everyone not black has noticed it, and are tired of paying for it. Temporary welfare instead of permanent cradle to grave money, vouchers to live in houses instead of apartments needs to go, too. Now there are sometimes four generations of families with no dads in them at all, and the young males have no idea how to be fathers, husbands, hard workers. My dad was the rock in my life. He worked two jobs, kept my brother in line and me, and I know what they’re missing.
I’m a black man and this is why I despise rap music so much. It promotes the most degenerate things. I truly believe that “rap culture” really set us back, trash style of music & culture.
Yeah and there is a line between taking it serious or just listening to it. I like metal and rap, if you listened to some Death Metal (not that you can understand the vocals anyway) it’s a joke. It’s all messed up lyrics, the difference is most people take it as a joke because it’s meant to be ridiculous and messed up, not to be taken seriously. I don’t like death metal, I like the instrumental stuff it’s impressive and I think sounds cool, but the demon vocals almost all sound the same. It bores me.
@ Agreed! People look at me surprised that I only listen to R&B/Soul music, especially older music from that era because I’m in my mid twenties. Motown artists carried themselves with class & actually made real good music. We all see how rappers carry themselves and they don’t make music at all, it’s nothing but trash
Im white and back in 1988 I was 20 working as a Concrete Formwork Carpenter in construction in Ft Lauderdale FL. I hung out with the Labor Foreman who was black and around 45 and we'd hang out after work, usually Fridays, to drank mainly with other black men. I met other black men through him and one man in particular intoduced me to Big Dank. He was born in 1924 and was 64 at the time. He was a gifted black Blues man who during the depression as a child played on corners and would make 3 - 5 bucks or more a day which back then was big money for a 8 year old. He would bring the money home to his mom who was always wondering how he made such money. I know because he was my Best friend for nearly 18 years until he passed in 2006. He was gifted - anything he heard he couod play on the guitar He sold moonshine in an old neighborgood just East of I95 an NE by about a mile. It was an all black neighborhood and I met black men who were 20- 45 years older than me because many drank moonshine and i drank too. I never met so many decent people in my life and many took to me for my decency and respect I gave to all. I learned to play the blues then moved to composing/playing smooth jazz, blues, funk , easy rock compositions. I was living Martin Luther's dream. I helped dank move him and his wife to Georgia in 1996. But i always went up once a year and stayed with him up to a month sometimes. I will always be thankful to the GOD Most High for that wonderful experience. Those men are all gone now and I miss everyone of them.
1950s rock then 60s acid rock couldnt destroy us so they went to easy listening in the early 70s.. Then 1980 mtv and more bizare rock came back. Then 90s rap. Now we have the worst of music destroying this country. Get saved and fear no evil. Halleluyah.
I did this going to buy a cell phone. Everything I said to the black employee, (the only employee at the store) he just stared at me with his mouth open. It was making me really nervous, I said, "is this your desk? can I sit here?" because there was another chair in front of it for customers, and he just stares at me again without saying anything. So after a pause I ask "are you ok?" and he screams ARE YOU??? and to this day I still have no idea why. it was so bizarre. I said "you're just staring at me not saying anything." then right when i finished that sentence, I thought just leave. I should have just walked out when he started having an out burst, he starts saying something and I leave the store quickly. You're right. The second something doesnt seem right. The first mouth-open stare he gave me when I said hi, i need a new phone, I should have just spun around and left right there.
I'm a black woman and I don't blame you. I tried to support black businesses in the past and got nothing but bad attitudes, outrageous overpriced services, and less than satisfactory outcomes. Always trust your first instinct. Thanks for the video! All the best!
I really enjoyed your honesty mam, this is one man who thinks we are all created equal, I bet you are a true believer in Christ, I hope you and your family have a great thanksgiving and Christmas ❤️❤️Hang in there!!!!
Try living across the street from a project house and a black supremacist smoke and liquor shop down the street opening up. Watch your neighborhood turn into a demilitarized zone in a month.
So true and being a Black home-owning woman alone. I've been treated I'm like fair game. I will NEVER do business with another Black owned company. They have a habit of treating other Black people with no respect. Electrical and Plumbing is the heart and soul of your house. The structure is its bones. Black contractors have messed up all of my major internal components. I had to have them all redone. Not so with my none English-speaking Polish contractors. When I had a garage built and siding put on. All of which has held up nicely. I'm done. I don't have that kind of money or the time for them to screw me over. I try to learn as much about what I need to get done as possible before I call for help. Or at least the terminology for certain parts. I don't want to hear your stories or have any of you touch my house. One guy was my son's frat brother. He screwed me royally and tried to take the extra materials he bought with my money when I asked him to leave. He ended up calling me out of my name. Now I'm the proud owner of some very expensive Copper. I have so many tales to tell about my experiences with Black-owned businesses. And NONE and I mean NONE are good. Do I care about what any of you think NOPE
I agree. As a black woman. It hard to get work done. I’m a realtor and tried to deal with black home improvement contractors and been ripped off a few times. It’s a shame how our own ppl will rip you off. I live in Detroit
I'm white and git ripped off by a white contractor for over $30k. Building my house. I'm not rich. The house is only 1600 square feet. For 2 years I dug in like a bull dog and used every legal ave. I couldn't afford a lawyer. I did it all.myself. .In the end I got his bond and his license were revoked. Never trust a contractor.
I think your problem is more Detroit than black contractors. My black neighbor had black contractors redo a large section of house siding. At her house early, worked steadily the whole day and wrapped up after 3-4 days. From stripping off, to replacing damaged studs to painting the new wood Signed, White Texan
All home improvement contractors are subject to rip you off. This is why you use your contracts and just get ready for legal action. That is just the way it is.
I think your problem is Detroit... That whole place is a mess... I lived in Southwest for a short time, now I'm back up north.. Saginaw area.... I'd run as far away from that place as you can get
Those are your own words...our "own people." There's a line of division. I'm sure I don't have to remind anyone who the most racist people are in America. There's always an exception to the rule, but the rule always remains. Colin Flaherty nailed it. I've had black acquaintances and even work for a mixed black guy; he gets to play on both sides... the best of both worlds. (He refuses to date or marry black chicks because of their loud, aggressive, and masculine nature.) I even notice how color-fixed blacks are amongst and against their "own people." Actually, I could write a thesis on my employer's hiring methods and unfortunate experiences with black employees. Let's just say that it ended up costing him several tens of thousands of dollars.
I'm also a black male. Yes, black on black crime and Black Youth manipulation from Rap Music is a sad truth in this country. These rappers aren't role models.
@carolsanders7336 Mind control and the Black community trying to emulate RAP MUSIC is wickedly real and out of control... And as far as Black businesses, yes, "Some" of them tend to be overpriced and not operated with the best customer service.
I'm a 68 year old white man from mid America who grew up in a white community. My parents raised me to NOT be racist. I never had a racist bone in my body. But in my late 20s I bought my first home and my next door neighbor family was black. No problem, we were even good friends for a couple of years. By the time I moved 12 years later Joe and his wife had trained me to realize that the black stereotypes I had thought were nonsense...were based in reality! I've had SOOOO many bad experiences with black people (including having a gun shoved in my ribs to rob me) that I now assume a black stranger I may encounter hates me and wishes me harm. They've done it to themselves. Call me a racist if you want. Caring what people thought of me almost cost me my life so I've stopped...
I'm a black woman, and I don't think you're racist based on your statement because it's most likely true. I don't go to certain areas if it's heavily populated with black men. I'm not risking my life trying to figure out if they feel like shooting today. I don't date them or go around them. I'm happily married to a White/Asian man and I don't have to worry about being around violence and nonsense. I'm not saying all black people but mainly black men. They're so toxic.
He should be a man and tell us what the solution is. We don't need to be told that black crime is out of proportion to the population. Lamont, something sounds real fishy about this story. I think that you orchestrated this story for the clicks and views. Most of this video was about how he has never dealt with a black business that didn't end like this.He knew that he was going to Akron OH. Akron has a very high population of African Americans. Most black-owned businesses are in the black neighborhoods. He called to make an appointment. You mean he didn't know it was a black business, of course he did. Lamont knows that with the racial tensions the way they are in the country right now, that an anti black video is going to get lots of views and comments, 99% agreeing with him that the problem in this country are black people and immigrants. That sells. What you did not do Lamont is show the receipt that you got for the money you spent. You didn't tell us what the name of the business is. No pictures of your van up on the lift. He didn't even have to call the police. The guy said you don't have to call the police. Why did he call them, for an escort? Lamont is either very naive and stupid or he hates black people enough to make up a story like this. His story makes absolutely no sense. Here's a couple of things I found out about Akron after I saw the video. The Akron chapter of the Ku Klux Klan reported having 50,000 members, making it the largest local chapter in the country during the 20th century. At some point the sheriff, county officials, mayor of Akron, judges, county commissioners, and most members of Akron's school board were members. The distribution of methamphetamine ("meth") in Akron greatly contributed to Summit County becoming known as the "Meth Capital of Ohio" in the early 2000s.[The county ranked third in the nation in the number of registered meth sites. Those were not black folk making the meth. I used to like Lamont. I remember he did a great video about young Emmett Till going down to Mississippi and getting slaughtered. But Lamont has turned into a self hating black man. Well part like anyway.
I just ask a white friend if he would do it, explaining why, & that's when one needs my help, I'm there! Fuk(excuse me plz)the dumb shit, it's costly, hurtful, and lowers your value.
Unfortunately my mechanic is my older brother who owns a shop and I am 60….he is retiring soon and I will have to find another. Not looking forward to it!! My doctor retired a few years back, too. It SUCKS!
I voted to re-elect Donald, but one of the policies of his I’m firmly against is his “open school choice” idea, wanting to allow kids from different zip codes to go to whatever school they want. It’s beyond unfair to ruin the precious functioning and prosperous majority “yt/asian” schools in our country by allowing these “pIaque” kids in that don’t take education seriously and do nothing but disturb the class, bully “yts”, and hold other students back. Not to mention that “yts” pay through the nose to live apart so they can have peace and quiet/safety/good schools, and it is _THEIR_ property taxes that pay for their local school districts that they developed themselves to be prosperous. Now that will all mean nothing, and this will be kinda like the ‘70s all over again where mass “yt” flight happened to avoid having their “yt” kids bussed to the inner city (my folks moved out of LA county when they were going to start bussing my 9 year old older brother to the inner city 45 mins away for forced desegregation), but worse, because there’s no fleeing from such a harmful policy!

Culturally, they have a real problem with basic manners. Just yesterday at work I was noting how the young black girl (the one who on election day seriously asked "has Trump already been president before?") corrected a simple mistake a new hire made. It was "HEY! COME HERE! LOOK! Do it like this!" A normal person would have said "Hey so and so, you got a second? I want to show you something. Not a big deal, but you did this part wrong, let me show you the correct way. Thanks."
@@D-Fens_1632I worked with a young woman that had zero manners. I worked in a dog boarding facility. We never boarded dogs if the owner was going into hospital. We got stuck a few times when something went wrong. I hear this young woman tell the client that we don’t board in that situation because you could go into the hospital & die, we’ll get stuck with the dog. 😂 You couldn’t get it through her head not to phrase it like that. She had zero people skills along with zero work effort.
If it makes you feel better to play semantics. We have the same problem in Europe, now how is that, it's one hell of a coincidence that people are finally starting to talk about.
I understand where you’re coming from but I always ask what is the price up front. I knew a couple of guys who were professional mechanics and they used to tell me about all the stories about ripping off customers. I was working a 18hr shift and my wife took the van in for a simple oil change prior to our road trip. I get an emergency call at work so I call back and my wife is panicking because the manager told her that she needed several emergency repairs total 700$ . I asked her for the manager and told him that I would only speak to him if he put me on speaker phone. Now the entire shop and customers can hear our conversation. He starts explaining all the repairs and when he was done I told him that is pretty thorough but why not replace the muffler bearing while you’re at it ? The entire shop of mechanics were laughing so hard that the customers started inquiring about what was going on. He handed the phone to my wife and said you’re oil change will be done in few minutes, she was totally confused so I explained it was a con job and a muffler bearing is a old mechanics joke 😂😂😂
@@bobdees6428 My neighbor once worked for a guy who had a shop in town. I mentioned the guy and he said 'That guy's a crooked SOB!' He said one day the guy told him "it's real slow today. Pull the alternator off that Buick and paint it black. We'll charge him for a new alternator." My neighbor said "I knew I had to get the Hell outta there!"
Im a white male, 37 from indiana. Have black friends, dated a couple black chicks, i use to preface things with " im not racist but...". Now i just say what i have to say because its the truth, the truth isn't racist....
What a coincidence, I used to be a white guy from Ohio, now Im just an asshole (to some), I have friends (some are different colors). i just say FAFO. yall can prob guess where i am now.
@KSprospector my point is even though I'm in relatively rural parts of predominantly white state is that I do have black friends and dated black women, so I have a very good relationship with what small black community is around, so I'm not just speaking out of ignorance, I'm speaking from experience, so yes, I'll preface my point with " I have black friends"
It costs me $250 if I take my Burgman 650 to the shop to have the oil changed and its JUST A SCOOTER! Its only because taking the body panels off is essential to do the job and it takes FOREVER! This is why I do it myself. The point being that it can differ from vehicle type to vehicle type and the process involved. Having said that, yes for a car where its pretty friggin easy to change the oil should never cost anywhere near $150.
I’m black myself and I can tell you I’ve had to work hard just to be considered middle class and not a loser. The mothers of young urban children breed them to fail.
@BlackBiggot I guess trailer trash and the sorts don't exist. I'm in Ohio also about 40 miles down I 71. I'll personally take you to some white mechanics that over charge. I'll also show you tons of young white dope dealers and dope addicts.
As a 20 year old black man this man is 💯 right. The family structure especially in the black community is super broken. No father's in homes, baby mama culture, hating on each other, killing each other, etc. Only God can save the black community at this point.
The black community has to get rid of the black political leaders & rap/hip hop moguls who are empowering or positively educating literally black people in the nation. They profit from convincing the black population they are eternal victims never helping their people to stand up proud, take self responsibility and moved beyond victim hood. A rape victim can ruin themselves for life if they never move forward beyond it to not let if define what they become. Things are 1000% better today for black post 60's civil rights movement with way more education opportunities and ways to get beyond life in a hood. The few that take their education seriously can many times finding special funding and scholarships to go to college or other post secondary school to get out of the hood many times. The problem is the "culture" and cultural leaders in the black community discourages that pushing drugs, pimps, ho's, promiscuity & gang culture. Go Google image "Black family" & look for old black & white images. Near everyone will have a well dressed Black family with a suited father, mother wearing a dress and a bunch of neatly dressed kids that look well behaved, schooled that have no idea what street drugs are. If they did happen to be around them the disciplinarian father family leader would make them wish they never did and don't ever again. Time outs don't make that kind of permanent impression. www.google.com/search?q=black+family&newwindow=1&client=tablet-android-lenovo-rev2&sca_esv=bc4a53e56beeb6d8&udm=2&prmd=ivsn&source=lnt&tbs=ic:gray&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwi6vryom7WJAxXokokEHe9VI6AQpwV6BAgCEBE&biw=800&bih=1280&dpr=1.5
Serious as why that is the case with single mothers in African-American communities, but not the white American. not really sure what the difference is. that is an actual question I was raised in a divorced family and I’m white. I raised my three children in a divorced family and never had such issues.
@@whatsamatteryou791you emulate what you see. Having babies as a baby and the kids do the same. It’s truly not that hard to understand. Standards and expectation for one’s life are almost non existent in a lot of these black homes which leads to what? Broke, welfare surviving, bad mindset losers. I’m black so I can say this. Thankfully I was born in the suburbs so the level of expectation that I had behind me wouldn’t allow me to even get close to being a bum. So it really is environment. There’s always those exceptions ofc of those who excelled greatly despite their environment but were talking in general here.
Damn. I’m a 60 year old and it’s really sad that you are 100% correct. U sound like one with great parents and role models. Stay safe, keep listening to your role models and be great. 💯💪🏾👍🏾
Just keep telling the truth, Lamont. Someone has to step up to the plate and do it. Folks don't like hearing the truth, when they're living in an alternate reality. The breakdown of the traditional family has destroyed all races, and is the main reason for the chaos we see everyday. May God bless and keep you safe out there, Lamont. Your stories have enriched our lives. Love what you do.
After going to a Black owned business and discovering that pricing depended on the color of the customers skin, I haven't intentionally been back to another one
It's abhorrent that they're so willing to go along with discrimination when it benefits them. Just one more reason that the left is on the wrong side of things when they promote policies that advocate for discrimination like DEI and AA.
Lamont is fair. My grandson is biracial and so is my niece. It is how you raise them. I know. I am disabled and helping my disabled daughter. Life is tough for everyone. Parents have to sacrifice sometimes. If a parent doesn’t learn to help themselves, they can’t teach their kids to become self sufficient. Hard work and putting God first. Also, I am a single mom. Generational disfunction. Put your anger and pride aside and get help. God helps those who help themselves.
When taking a deep dive into the statistics, both white and black communities were better off before forced integration. The government should have let it happen naturally. Once the black community got a taste of the welfare state they never looked back. They were WAY Better off left to their own devices to succeed.
Y'all seem to know and talk about everybodys problems but our own dang problems. I'll take that back, y'all just don't talk about white problems and the media has y'all thinking you're experts on other people.I get it, I could be just like y'all if I wanted to be phoney and hate others who legitimately should hate on us, But I'm not a follower like alot of you pencil neck cry babies.
I used to try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt , but its harder and harder. Im no liberal booty smootcher who runs to black businesses, gets dumped on and then praises their glory either. Im a white country boy from northern Florida. I went to a black barbershop not long ago and didn't know it untill i walked in. No biggie, ill give him my business because hes an American small business and thats who i support. Long story short, im waiting and waiting and waiting while him and his " boys" run their mouths and get very little done. Some teenage boy comes in and says " yo brah, can you hit my sides quick?" Dude looked at me and said " hang tight brah, this will only take a minute ". I said " take all the time you need, just make sure you read my review tonight!" And i walked out. 🖕😘🖕
Same happened to me, in a place called Staunton Virginia, I knew that there were no black barbers in the area, but I thought that it being a “barber shop”, I could still possibly get my haircut, but unlike you, I actually called the business before showing up, asking them if they cut African-American hair, they said no, and hung up on me in my ear. 😂😂😂 they were white ! ………
@WrestleShadeTNS it definitely works both ways, but apparently yall's hair is harder to cut and you have to know what you're doing. I can't say for certain, but that's what I was told when I asked " why do they have barber shops specifically for black people?". I know if there were barber shops specifically for white people, everyone would throw a tantrum and pretend racism is a one way street. Either way, it's no excuse for them to be rude to you, just like there's no excuse for those jackasses to be rude to me. 🤷
@ I googled the shop , I saw the yelp pictures , I heard his voice , ( I could tell he was a male ) - I saw the customer reviews & the majority of the shops clientele. They had photos of the barbers that work in the shop online. ( I can give you a link ) - it didn’t take much to know I was speaking to a white gentleman.
I recently hired a black HVAC tech to repair my commercial ice machine. He stole the parts I paid for on his account, and never responded to me again. Then I found out after hiring a legit company that he completely misdiagnosed the problem. What should have cost me $350 if done right the first time, ended up costing me over $1100. NEVER again.
That is so sad 😢 and it really should not be that way , I understand but it is sad too ! Especially for the good business people that actually serve people well , in their community
I have 0 problems with black businesses or any other that is not black. I do my homework. I will research for a long time. Once I have enough information, I will engage or not engage. I WILL NOT bash a business over a bad experience simply because it was black owned. I WILL bash ANY business if not dealt with properly. Perfect example are hotels. Look at the reviews on some. Plenty of bad service, filthy rooms, bed bugs, stale food, etc... Doesn't matter who owns. What are you getting???
@buckskin64 Whites were favored prior to Civil Rights, and it built generational wealth. Blacks were discriminated against,hence the GI Bill in its original form!!
@WrestleShadeTNS I'm not taking anybody's side here but I want to tell you why the Indians get those things it's not from the US government. I got this straight from the local liquor store owner who happens to be a friend of mine now. There are several large players involved from India who are billionaires and multimillionaires they give these high interest loans to the Indians that are coming to the United States and own a piece of the business until that loan is repaid with a maximum amount of interest if you're late on a payment they will take the business from you immediately if you've ever seen some gas stations will have multiple owners over a period of time that's because they're taking them away from them and giving them to somebody else with that same massive loan It doesn't come from the US government That's how they're able to buy all the gas stations and dairy Queens and vape shops and whatever
You’re exactly right. But it’s not only black owned businesses these days. It’s hard for me to find ANYONE with a good work ethic that takes pride in what they do. It’s all about getting as much money as possible as quickly as you can.
On the first day, this black-owned pizza shop opened on my block and someone did graffiti on my building door this first day. Black folks, you have to do better. Terrible customer service and social skills.
Wtf does one have to do with the other??? Correlation does not imply causation and you sound def guilty of a few confirmation biases here. While black folks can always do better...all folks can, it starts with you doing better. Check your prejudice and come back with some sound, logical reasoning.
Hell yeah i paid 165 at express oil change i couldn't believe that shit i was in a major hurry i could've easily bought the oil and did it myself it was for a 2015 Nissan Altima
In my 63 years on this earth, I've found that trusting my first feeling (trusting my gut) is the usual and best solution. God has given us intellect and conscience for any situation. I got into similar scrapes like this - live and learn?
Some people are obsessive and have to interject race into every facet of their life.they don’t realize that they themselves are contributing to the problem or in some cases are the problem.
That's not just a black owned business ESPECIALLY when it comes to a mechanic shop. Had some Mexican shop owners lie and tell my girl she needs a new transmission. Quoted her $4000. I changed the pan, filter and added new trans fluid and tranny is still working perfectly 3 years later
I'm South African white. My child invited and sponsored me and the wife for a month visit in Germany. First thing that was pointed out to me while walking in the street, was a plastic bag with a cellphone in it hanging in a tree. Someone dropped it, and the person who saw it placed it in the tree. The person who lost it will retrace his/her steps and find the lost property there. Just simple civilization. I did some experiments in shops by acting "suspicious" when paying at a cashier by "protecting" my card and pay serious attention to my immediate surroundings. One German girl took the bait and ask me why I act like that, and do not want to "tap" my card. I told her how careful you need to be in South Africa and her reaction was a kodac moment. : "Why would anybody steal/take someone else's stuff???" I got the exact same type of reaction 3 times in different situations where I explained my actions.
This is what mechanics like to do to women. They think we know nothing about cars. I have had this happen almost every time I call a mechanic, plus being talked down too.
I am white. It's not an issue of race, it's not an issue of location. I believe you are seeing the breakdown and decline of our society. I had work done to my vehicle drove off with 4 bolts loose on my drive shaft, had to fix it myself. I use to do all the work on my vehicles myself but at 60 I thought I will let a shop ( owned and staffed by white men ) do the work, looks like I will do my own work from now on. The problem is the education system and the morals that people are exposed to as they grow up. If we don't change, we are doomed but it will be a slow decline and interesting, although sad, too observe. Think Roman Empire. Have a nice day.
He should be a man and tell us what the solution is. We don't need to be told that black crime is out of proportion to the population. Lamont, something sounds real fishy about this story. I think that you orchestrated this story for the clicks and views. Most of this video was about how he has never dealt with a black business that didn't end like this.He knew that he was going to Akron OH. Akron has a very high population of African Americans. Most black-owned businesses are in the black neighborhoods. He called to make an appointment. You mean he didn't know it was a black business, of course he did. Lamont knows that with the racial tensions the way they are in the country right now, that an anti black video is going to get lots of views and comments, 99% agreeing with him that the problem in this country are black people and immigrants. That sells. What you did not do Lamont is show the receipt that you got for the money you spent. You didn't tell us what the name of the business is. No pictures of your van up on the lift. He didn't even have to call the police. The guy said you don't have to call the police. Why did he call them, for an escort? Lamont is either very naive and stupid or he hates black people enough to make up a story like this. His story makes absolutely no sense. Here's a couple of things I found out about Akron after I saw the video. The Akron chapter of the Ku Klux Klan reported having 50,000 members, making it the largest local chapter in the country during the 20th century. At some point the sheriff, county officials, mayor of Akron, judges, county commissioners, and most members of Akron's school board were members. The distribution of methamphetamine ("meth") in Akron greatly contributed to Summit County becoming known as the "Meth Capital of Ohio" in the early 2000s.[The county ranked third in the nation in the number of registered meth sites. Those were not black folk making the meth. I used to like Lamont. I remember he did a great video about young Emmett Till going down to Mississippi and getting slaughtered. But Lamont has turned into a self hating black man. Well part like anyway.
YOU SAY THEY THAT ALL 4 BOLTS THEY LEFT LOOSE ON YOUR DRIVESHAFT ... ! ? ? ? YOU SHOULD HAVE IMMEDIATELY CALLED THE POLICE ... ! AND TOLD THEM AND SHOWED THEM THAT THEY DID THAT ... ! THEN ... YOU SHOULD HAVE CONTACTED A LAWYER AND SUED THE LIVING SH # T OUT OF THE OWNER OF THAT AUTO GARAGE ... ! IF YOUR DRIVESHAFT WOULD HAVE DROPPED ... YOU COULD EASILY HAVE BEEN KILLED ... ! YOU AND YOUR LAWYER WOULD HAVE WON A MAJOR LAWSUIT AGAINST THE OWNER OF THAT AUTO GARAGE ... !
I think a lot of people feel weird when talking about black crime because there's always this emotional reaction from others, jumping straight to "you're r@cist". That's silly, people are allowed to talk about these things, as well as statistics.
That's the truth. I've had my own kids gasp at statistical remarks I've made about current crime rates when those statistics reference the black community. They tell me "You can't say that mom! That's racist!". But nobody bats an eye if I point out that the vast majority of serial killers are white males between 25 & 34 years old. We cant address a problem if we cant speak the truth about where the problem exists.
Stereotypes and statistics are a thing for a reason 🤷🏼♂️ it's unfortunate, but black people are the ones that can change them. But it seems like a lot of them WANT to perpetuate them.. it's mind boggling.. 😮💨😔
Remember when black performers could sing ? Lionel Ritchie , Smokey Robinson , the Four Tops , Barry White, the Jackson 5 . The list is long . That was music.
$150 diagnostic? yep. I paid VW that much for 45 minutes, 'can't find the problem'. Paid another $150, 'still can't find the problem' $300 and none of you know how to fix a car? after that I fixed it myself, started my own mechanic shop and didn't charge for diagnostic if you paid me to do the work. $60 if I had to drive out and spend a hour figuring it out.
Jay, Welfare pushed men out of the house in the 60s and took stigma and shame out of having children out of wed lock. It destroyed family structure. Kids raised by single mother grew up without structure and boundaries and by 1980s gaxxng culture took hold and rap started to spread. Since then this music and this gaxxng culture has done untold damage, and it’s still goi g on. This has to stop and tradition family values need to come back to restore blk family. Otherwise this rap and gaxxngs, and glorification of single motherhood will continue to damage blk family and blk young people.
It's refreshing to hear that from you sir. I've had issues even in my area. I live in a very populated area full of black people and I love everybody.. but I had a young man threatened me recently, because he said I should have told him excuse me.. I pleaded with him to please not do this and he proceeded to say that I would be begging him to get off of me from the beating he would give me... Since then I've taken some martial arts and self-defense classes every week and sadly am on guard whenever I see a young black man in this part of town.

@@rauldelarosa2768 I been around a long time ,from Detroit. I now live in northern Michigan and retired. I avoid black people like a plague, especially since “George Floyd”. They treat white people with obvious contempt. I thank god every day that I don’t have to live around them or have to deal with them. I don’t care if I’m called racist because I know I have never treated them like they have treated me.
Im a black female & understand your complaint. I dont know why they so rude, bad service overpriced. If you get a bad feeling & your having senses to leave, dont ignore that feeling.
On goddddd ., Because the way he told his story, he should not deal with black people, and or go to their businesses ever again in his entire life, and stay away from them in his afterlife as well because it’s definitely no shade all people of all shapes sizes colors nationalities and creeds experience bad customer service once in a while, I have not seen no race that is superior in customer service. Do you know how many big industry corporations have massively failed all across-the-board that are not owned, funded, and or ran by black people.
You were right in calling the police! They can't hold your vehicle, if they have not done any work on it. You were in the right. Glad you got this on tape! Thanks BB.
I just looked and saw that Ohio is a state that gives black owned businesses subsidies. That's probably part of the problem here. Even if they don't get the amount of patronage needed to keep their business afloat they'll still get money to help them. Basically giving them free reign to do dumb shit like this.

Personally I don't believe anyone hates another human being because of the color of their skin, it's because of people's character, how they act that makes people hate others
You are correct. I firmly believe that the biggest racists that have ever existed never woke up one day and said I hate black people because their skin is brown. Never happened. It’s how they live, how they act, the rampant violence and crime within their ranks, their filthy neighborhoods, etc is what drives the hate.
I was employed by the NYC Dept of Sanitation in the 1980s . I worked in Harlem NY as most know was totally black at that time. During my break I had gone into flag Bros to purchase a pair of shoes that I wanted . Of course the salesman was black . He immidiatly told me that he didn’t have my size which I knew was definatly not true. My partner who was also black and had the same size foot as me agreed to go in at lunch time and see if it was true . I gave him the money and guess what ? He came out with the shoes . What would you call that ?
I'm a black business owner and this man is 100% right! He hits the nail on the head when he speaks on the CULTURE. I deliberately avoid most blk owned businesses even if it means I have to drive an extra 15 to 30 minutes to avoid being mistreated, ripped off or lack of the core products that they should carry. The sooner we can be honest with ourselves, take accountability and address this issue will be the only way that we can correct this. In the meanwhile I also personally do not even market my business to black people. It's business nothing personal.
He's not. Most Black folks don't denigrate each other for the entertainment or enjoyment of white folks. 99% of these anti black comments are whyt peepo cosplaying Black.
It’s a problem in the black community I don’t go into black own business because if you have a complaint they ready to fight I stay away. But it’s way different in black community they ready to throw hands or pow pow at you it’s all over the news and paper. You speak the truth
I'm glad that I'm 71 years old because the youth today will one day be running the country and that doesn't look to be good. I can only hope and pray that my granddaughters will be in a good and safe place when all hell cuts loose.
It's $119 for an oil change at the dealership... My truck takes 8 quarts of oil. This is why I do my own oil changes for around $50 Plus I know it's done right.
He's riding around and living in his vehicle, he probably knows the other prices around town. But those businesses aren't who he's trying to smear, They 16:17 aren't on his radar. He's no different than a bigot that overlooks everything, by everyone, except those he's targeting.
hey tell them what happens when you go to a PU or drop and the entire dock is being worked by nothing but young black males vs when you go to a place that is all mexicans. 10 hrs vs 45 mins. and its not always but 99% of the time, thats how it is. FACTS
I drive by a black mechanic shop every day on the way to work. The mechanics are all wearing street clothes and Jordans while moving around at a snails pace trying to look fresh. I will never take a place like that seriously.
Dang Lamont, folks are always trying to do you dirty. I’m glad you always stand your ground. Dude got all butt hurt because you laughed. My goodness. 🤦🏻♀️
maybe hes the problem. you notice he never post anything positive. he made this story up because he realized it gets more views.. way more then his normal videos
@@dionysus2419thank you !!!! I am looking at how he’s relating his story, I am looking at how he is choosing to describe the people he’s interacting with, and I’m looking through these comments like OK sure this is definitely his experience, but could he also have been the antagonize here and or the problem in the situation, if his heart and spirit told him to leave, he definitely should have done so .
Black youth are better off now then they have ever been in history ,financially (suburbs , universitys, corporate jobs) Yet the behavior stays the same, what gives? Is it really poverty or just bad character

I guess there are two sides to every coin and as a business owner I will chime in. I am in the RV repair business. I would guess that about 12% of our business is with black RV owners and the majority own a motorhome. In the past 5 years more and more black families are getting into RVing. I have never had a problem with any of our black customers. The motto at our business is.. "Our customers come in as a stranger and leave as friend", and this for the most part is true. I know that our situation is in reverse of your experiences, but I wanted to chime in with a different perspective. It's sad that this is true and it's difficult to understand. I think a lot of the issues in the black community is the fact that the democratic party has used them and abused them for so long. The majority of our black customers are republicans. Times are changing for sure :)
Think about it. What kind of family is buying an RV? The kind that is stable. Most black families are not stable so you are only seeing a successful portion of their population... which is good BTW. Not because of their skin color but because of the culture.
Im a white dude but live in a mostly black area. I try to always support local small businesses regardless of color. Because i live in a predominantly b;ack area most of those businesses are black owned. Ive had awful experiences with black owned business. Always rude, always over priced, usually low quality, and treat you like youre bothering them. Ive found myself now trying to avood these businesses unless word of mouth from people i trust tells me theyre good. Yhe one black owned business i loved is sadly no longer around. It was a clothing store and the owner was incredibly friendly. Every weekend he would have a cookout in front pf his store and feed hungry families for free. The [rices were a little high but its a local business so i dont expect walmart or amazon prices. Besides i didnt mikd paying a little extra when i saw that he was trying to help out the community. I heard he shut down because people kept robbing him and burglarizing his business.
White guy here. I went to a black owned business. They robbed me and told me to consider it a down payment on my reperations bill. I love Amerragaa! Just teasing!!!
My cousins are mixed and they've been bullied there entire lives by black folks. They actually had to change schools several times from being assaulted.
So much truth to this. Last 10 years of my career in law enforcement I’ve been assigned to a juvenile section. Child advocates say that only kids of color are being detained and going to juvenile hall. I wondered why that is until I would see visitations and realize there’s only a mother or grandmother visiting, no father. Didn’t help how the mother was speaking to the child because she too is too young to be raising a kid and still acts like a child. Don’t have enough life experience to teach a young person. It’s a culture that needs to be addressed. We all must do better.
I had some guy tell me an oil change was, and he told me $150.00, I told him because I'm a female he thought I was stupid, thanks but no thanks, I made an appointment elsewhere and paid $55.00 for it😂
The shop lost money ! you were part of an advertising plan to get new customers into their shop in the hopes of having other repair work done. This does not make all other shops rip offs !
@@cantsneedgaming4591 Agreed on the oil change intervals, I use Kirtland synthetic from costco. It is the same as mobile one, the cost is 40 bucks. A filter cost about 10 more. And I don't pay to dispose of the oil since I can dump it in the apartment dumpster. A shop would lose money on a 55 dollar oil change.
I worked at a large postal sectional center near Chicago in the mid 80’s. My job gave me a leave of absence to see if I could better my situation. I stayed there for a month and went back to my old job. The word lazy is taken to a new level there. Funny it was all the blacks sleeping in the locker areas under the benches, up against the lockers, even in every toilet stall. Pretty weird…one girl threatened me for her people to get me outside because I took a cart I needed. I made the right choice not staying there. Obviously it’s not all the folks but it is a vast majority from what I witnessed.
I went to a major non-black owned shop for a leak in the window washer hose or water bottle. The "diagnostic" would cost $350. I don't go there very often, but every time they come up with repair "suggestions" over $1000. There are honest people and dishonest.
The algorithm really sent me one here, man. Thank you for keeping it real. Thank you for not being afraid to voice. What? You see what's going on in the world, you're correct, man. These youth need better role models. They need both parents. I need that family dynamic. It's sad to see them. Acting the way that they are
Unrelated to race, I had a guy at Les Schwab hold my vehicle on a lift "Hostage". This was white on white.. but I went into a rage in their lobby. They should be taught, having on a lift that the customer can't control... that is about as close to theft as you can get.... it's not a bargaining chip.

If you make an appointment and both parties agreed what time to meet and the price of service, when you arrive there and the worker says “What you need?” That would be the perfect time to leave. That shows that they’re not organized nor take their business and customers seriously.

The irony. Who wants to go ahead at the door and get " service" before price confirmation on paper first or lack thereof and the fact that their is always an individual more overdramatic to match your energy. WTH.😅😅😂
$149 diagnostic fee abnormal. Dealership is more than that. But most shops apply that to your repair fee. $150 for an oil change is wild! My Duramax DIESEL is $180!!!! Dudes a scammer
Was ordering some DoorDash when I lived in Orlando and a new Black Owned Business was featured on the app: The Licking; a seafood restaurant. There was a drink called a”mystery drink” and it was soda&some type of juice, it was good. But, the seafood rice I ordered could have put me in the hospital if I wasn’t such a careful eater. So glad I did not serve it up for my family. Whoever made the rice actually smashed the shells of the seafood in w/the rice, or(I just thought of this)made it in a big pot and then stirred it around while doling it out. There were itty bitty teeny tiny pieces that i could still feel when sifting it through my hands. I left a one star on Yelp& was super surprised they were still in business months later. I’m not kidding when I state every single mouthful of rice was infused with a grainy shell texture. The rice wasn’t even that good. When you have to eat 1-3 grains of rice at a time with fingers because you can’t see the shell, that’s BAD. The only reason I was trying to eat any of it was because I wanted to leave a thorough review. I never ordered from them again. In fact, Doordash has put me off most restaurants. I ordered milkshakes from the Pine Hills area(Crime Hills if you’re from Orlando) and the bag and the shakes smelled strong like reefer. When I complained to Doordash they just didn’t care-no refund. They should really make it illegal to have a pet in the car, smoke anything or wear any kind of cologne when delivering food or groceries. It’s a federal offense to tamper w/food in a grocery store. But, it’s ok when a dog takes a crap or a wee on a grocery bag, a guy does a wake n bake inside the car w/your food right there, or his Drakkar Noir is SO strong you can smell it on the food and the bag?

You can do a oil change on your own lamont. Its like changing a tire... Easy...take the plug out put a pan or bucket underneath to catch the oil. Take the oil out, put 6 quartz in. Change the filter and done!!
I was paying $100. Now I do my own and use an oil treatment on my Ford e350 super duty box truck. I'm feeling you. A white guy just worked me over after spending more than $300 for a battery when he broke the tie down working for a auto supply. He told me to put a bungee cord on it. I went to another store and Pedro fixed it so my truck wouldn't catch on fire. Race doesn't guarantee success or get in the way, unless you depend on it. I'm 70 and the prognosis isn't good for humanity
Thats not true at all. Alot of cars have become so difficult due to the oil filter location. Drain bolts are usually covered by underbody skid plates. So no its not “easy”. Its not 1961 anymore cars are complicated now.
Cursing in an argument or dispute is valid. It’s clear concise and to the point. Now every word shouldn’t be a curse word but saying something like “I think you’re a fucking idiot.” Really gets the point across.
I’ve only been to a business that advertises themselves as “black owned” (as if that matters to anyone aside from woke liberals) once. It was a restaurant. It took us like 2 hours to get our food, no exaggeration. The jerk chicken was great, but the service was non-existent.

Amen
Welfare pushed men out and took stigma and shame out of having children out of wed lock. It destroyed family structure. Kids raised by single mother grew up without structure and boundaries and by 1980s gaxxng culture took hold and rap started to spread. Since then this music and this gaxxng culture has done untold damage, and it’s still goi g on. This has to stop and tradition family values need to come back to restore blk family. Otherwise this rap and gaxxngs, and glorification of single motherhood will continue to damage blk family and blk young people.
Exactly!
Everyone not black has noticed it, and are tired of paying for it. Temporary welfare instead of permanent cradle to grave money, vouchers to live in houses instead of apartments needs to go, too. Now there are sometimes four generations of families with no dads in them at all, and the young males have no idea how to be fathers, husbands, hard workers. My dad was the rock in my life. He worked two jobs, kept my brother in line and me, and I know what they’re missing.
When the FEDERAL government makes it a national holiday, you better watch out for that person. They have a reason, and it isn't in YOUR best interest.
I’m a black man and this is why I despise rap music so much. It promotes the most degenerate things. I truly believe that “rap culture” really set us back, trash style of music & culture.
Yeah and there is a line between taking it serious or just listening to it. I like metal and rap, if you listened to some Death Metal (not that you can understand the vocals anyway) it’s a joke. It’s all messed up lyrics, the difference is most people take it as a joke because it’s meant to be ridiculous and messed up, not to be taken seriously. I don’t like death metal, I like the instrumental stuff it’s impressive and I think sounds cool, but the demon vocals almost all sound the same. It bores me.
Motown was the best music from the 60's.
@ Agreed! People look at me surprised that I only listen to R&B/Soul music, especially older music from that era because I’m in my mid twenties. Motown artists carried themselves with class & actually made real good music. We all see how rappers carry themselves and they don’t make music at all, it’s nothing but trash
Im white and back in 1988 I was 20 working as a Concrete Formwork Carpenter in construction in Ft Lauderdale FL. I hung out with the Labor Foreman who was black and around 45 and we'd hang out after work, usually Fridays, to drank mainly with other black men. I met other black men through him and one man in particular intoduced me to Big Dank. He was born in 1924 and was 64 at the time. He was a gifted black Blues man who during the depression as a child played on corners and would make 3 - 5 bucks or more a day which back then was big money for a 8 year old. He would bring the money home to his mom who was always wondering how he made such money. I know because he was my Best friend for nearly 18 years until he passed in 2006. He was gifted - anything he heard he couod play on the guitar He sold moonshine in an old neighborgood just East of I95 an NE by about a mile. It was an all black neighborhood and I met black men who were 20- 45 years older than me because many drank moonshine and i drank too. I never met so many decent people in my life and many took to me for my decency and respect I gave to all. I learned to play the blues then moved to composing/playing smooth jazz, blues, funk , easy rock compositions. I was living Martin Luther's dream. I helped dank move him and his wife to Georgia in 1996. But i always went up once a year and stayed with him up to a month sometimes. I will always be thankful to the GOD Most High for that wonderful experience. Those men are all gone now and I miss everyone of them.
1950s rock then 60s acid rock couldnt destroy us so they went to easy listening in the early 70s.. Then 1980 mtv and more bizare rock came back. Then 90s rap. Now we have the worst of music destroying this country. Get saved and fear no evil. Halleluyah.
Listen to your gut instincts. If you think you should walk away, walk away.

I did this going to buy a cell phone. Everything I said to the black employee, (the only employee at the store) he just stared at me with his mouth open. It was making me really nervous, I said, "is this your desk? can I sit here?" because there was another chair in front of it for customers, and he just stares at me again without saying anything. So after a pause I ask "are you ok?" and he screams ARE YOU??? and to this day I still have no idea why. it was so bizarre. I said "you're just staring at me not saying anything." then right when i finished that sentence, I thought just leave. I should have just walked out when he started having an out burst, he starts saying something and I leave the store quickly. You're right. The second something doesnt seem right. The first mouth-open stare he gave me when I said hi, i need a new phone, I should have just spun around and left right there.
I loaned 200 bucks to a scum bag white guy and my instincts said no. I should have listened never saw the punk again. Lesson learned

Try living across the street from a project house and a black supremacist smoke and liquor shop down the street opening up. Watch your neighborhood turn into a demilitarized zone in a month.
So true and being a Black home-owning woman alone. I've been treated I'm like fair game. I will NEVER do business with another Black owned company. They have a habit of treating other Black people with no respect. Electrical and Plumbing is the heart and soul of your house. The structure is its bones. Black contractors have messed up all of my major internal components. I had to have them all redone. Not so with my none English-speaking Polish contractors. When I had a garage built and siding put on. All of which has held up nicely. I'm done. I don't have that kind of money or the time for them to screw me over.
I try to learn as much about what I need to get done as possible before I call for help. Or at least the terminology for certain parts. I don't want to hear your stories or have any of you touch my house. One guy was my son's frat brother. He screwed me royally and tried to take the extra materials he bought with my money when I asked him to leave. He ended up calling me out of my name. Now I'm the proud owner of some very expensive Copper. I have so many tales to tell about my experiences with Black-owned businesses. And NONE and I mean NONE are good. Do I care about what any of you think NOPE
So then you go in a white owned business and make demands then make a scene. Stay going to your peoples business.
I agree. As a black woman. It hard to get work done. I’m a realtor and tried to deal with black home improvement contractors and been ripped off a few times. It’s a shame how our own ppl will rip you off. I live in Detroit
I'm white and git ripped off by a white contractor for over $30k.
Building my house. I'm not rich. The house is only 1600 square feet.
For 2 years I dug in like a bull dog and used every legal ave.
I couldn't afford a lawyer. I did it all.myself. .In the end I got his bond and his license were revoked.
Never trust a contractor.
I think your problem is more Detroit than black contractors.
My black neighbor had black contractors redo a large section of house siding. At her house early, worked steadily the whole day and wrapped up after 3-4 days. From stripping off, to replacing damaged studs to painting the new wood
Signed, White Texan
All home improvement contractors are subject to rip you off. This is why you use your contracts and just get ready for legal action. That is just the way it is.
I think your problem is Detroit... That whole place is a mess... I lived in Southwest for a short time, now I'm back up north.. Saginaw area.... I'd run as far away from that place as you can get
Those are your own words...our "own people." There's a line of division. I'm sure I don't have to remind anyone who the most racist people are in America. There's always an exception to the rule, but the rule always remains. Colin Flaherty nailed it. I've had black acquaintances and even work for a mixed black guy; he gets to play on both sides... the best of both worlds. (He refuses to date or marry black chicks because of their loud, aggressive, and masculine nature.) I even notice how color-fixed blacks are amongst and against their "own people."
Actually, I could write a thesis on my employer's hiring methods and unfortunate experiences with black employees. Let's just say that it ended up costing him several tens of thousands of dollars.
I'm also a black male. Yes, black on black crime and Black Youth manipulation from Rap Music is a sad truth in this country. These rappers aren't role models.
Facts!!!
What does the music have anything to do with mechanic shops
@carolsanders7336 Mind control and the Black community trying to emulate RAP MUSIC is wickedly real and out of control... And as far as Black businesses, yes, "Some" of them tend to be overpriced and not operated with the best customer service.

Pride. That's the root of it. A lot of ego and no appreciation for the customer who's basically feeding you.

Amen 🙏🏻
Ashamed of nothing yet offended by everything!
I'm a 68 year old white man from mid America who grew up in a white community. My parents raised me to NOT be racist. I never had a racist bone in my body. But in my late 20s I bought my first home and my next door neighbor family was black. No problem, we were even good friends for a couple of years. By the time I moved 12 years later Joe and his wife had trained me to realize that the black stereotypes I had thought were nonsense...were based in reality! I've had SOOOO many bad experiences with black people (including having a gun shoved in my ribs to rob me) that I now assume a black stranger I may encounter hates me and wishes me harm. They've done it to themselves. Call me a racist if you want. Caring what people thought of me almost cost me my life so I've stopped...
👍
We should be moved by evidence- you're right here.
Chris Rock was not wrong. Neither was Scott Adams.
I'm a black woman, and I don't think you're racist based on your statement because it's most likely true. I don't go to certain areas if it's heavily populated with black men. I'm not risking my life trying to figure out if they feel like shooting today. I don't date them or go around them. I'm happily married to a White/Asian man and I don't have to worry about being around violence and nonsense. I'm not saying all black people but mainly black men. They're so toxic.
That’s ur individual experience. Doesn’t stand for all
I'm black and I understand what you saying I really do it's just sad for our culture
But blacks as a whole do NOT make any efforts to change !
He should be a man and tell us what the solution is. We don't need to be told that black crime is out of proportion to the population. Lamont, something sounds real fishy about this story. I think that you orchestrated this story for the clicks and views. Most of this video was about how he has never dealt with a black business that didn't end like this.He knew that he was going to Akron OH. Akron has a very high population of African Americans. Most black-owned businesses are in the black neighborhoods. He called to make an appointment. You mean he didn't know it was a black business, of course he did. Lamont knows that with the racial tensions the way they are in the country right now, that an anti black video is going to get lots of views and comments, 99% agreeing with him that the problem in this country are black people and immigrants. That sells. What you did not do Lamont is show the receipt that you got for the money you spent. You didn't tell us what the name of the business is. No pictures of your van up on the lift. He didn't even have to call the police. The guy said you don't have to call the police. Why did he call them, for an escort? Lamont is either very naive and stupid or he hates black people enough to make up a story like this. His story makes absolutely no sense. Here's a couple of things I found out about Akron after I saw the video.
The Akron chapter of the Ku Klux Klan reported having 50,000 members, making it the largest local chapter in the country during the 20th century. At some point the sheriff, county officials, mayor of Akron, judges, county commissioners, and most members of Akron's school board were members.
The distribution of methamphetamine ("meth") in Akron greatly contributed to Summit County becoming known as the "Meth Capital of Ohio" in the early 2000s.[The county ranked third in the nation in the number of registered meth sites. Those were not black folk making the meth.
I used to like Lamont. I remember he did a great video about young Emmett Till going down to Mississippi and getting slaughtered. But Lamont has turned into a self hating black man. Well part like anyway.
I just ask a white friend if he would do it, explaining why, & that's when one needs my help, I'm there! Fuk(excuse me plz)the dumb shit, it's costly, hurtful, and lowers your value.
Well y'all just keep shopping with the white folks because they always been fair to Blacks
Yall blame white folks but ya do it to yourselves
A good mechanic is like a good doctor. Once you have one you’re loyal for life.
I never understood this until I met a mechanic who was really on my side. Then I got it 100%.

I voted to re-elect Donald, but one of the policies of his I’m firmly against is his “open school choice” idea, wanting to allow kids from different zip codes to go to whatever school they want. It’s beyond unfair to ruin the precious functioning and prosperous majority “yt/asian” schools in our country by allowing these “pIaque” kids in that don’t take education seriously and do nothing but disturb the class, bully “yts”, and hold other students back.
Not to mention that “yts” pay through the nose to live apart so they can have peace and quiet/safety/good schools, and it is _THEIR_ property taxes that pay for their local school districts that they developed themselves to be prosperous. Now that will all mean nothing, and this will be kinda like the ‘70s all over again where mass “yt” flight happened to avoid having their “yt” kids bussed to the inner city (my folks moved out of LA county when they were going to start bussing my 9 year old older brother to the inner city 45 mins away for forced desegregation), but worse, because there’s no fleeing from such a harmful policy!

Culturally, they have a real problem with basic manners. Just yesterday at work I was noting how the young black girl (the one who on election day seriously asked "has Trump already been president before?") corrected a simple mistake a new hire made. It was "HEY! COME HERE! LOOK! Do it like this!" A normal person would have said "Hey so and so, you got a second? I want to show you something. Not a big deal, but you did this part wrong, let me show you the correct way. Thanks."

I understand where you’re coming from but I always ask what is the price up front. I knew a couple of guys who were professional mechanics and they used to tell me about all the stories about ripping off customers. I was working a 18hr shift and my wife took the van in for a simple oil change prior to our road trip. I get an emergency call at work so I call back and my wife is panicking because the manager told her that she needed several emergency repairs total 700$ . I asked her for the manager and told him that I would only speak to him if he put me on speaker phone. Now the entire shop and customers can hear our conversation. He starts explaining all the repairs and when he was done I told him that is pretty thorough but why not replace the muffler bearing while you’re at it ? The entire shop of mechanics were laughing so hard that the customers started inquiring about what was going on. He handed the phone to my wife and said you’re oil change will be done in few minutes, she was totally confused so I explained it was a con job and a muffler bearing is a old mechanics joke 😂😂😂

@Cestdelamerde Absolutely. And they prey on those people that don't know.
It costs me $250 if I take my Burgman 650 to the shop to have the oil changed and its JUST A SCOOTER! Its only because taking the body panels off is essential to do the job and it takes FOREVER! This is why I do it myself. The point being that it can differ from vehicle type to vehicle type and the process involved. Having said that, yes for a car where its pretty friggin easy to change the oil should never cost anywhere near $150.

As a 20 year old black man this man is 💯 right. The family structure especially in the black community is super broken. No father's in homes, baby mama culture, hating on each other, killing each other, etc. Only God can save the black community at this point.
The black community has to get rid of the black political leaders & rap/hip hop moguls who are empowering or positively educating literally black people in the nation. They profit from convincing the black population they are eternal victims never helping their people to stand up proud, take self responsibility and moved beyond victim hood. A rape victim can ruin themselves for life if they never move forward beyond it to not let if define what they become.
Things are 1000% better today for black post 60's civil rights movement with way more education opportunities and ways to get beyond life in a hood. The few that take their education seriously can many times finding special funding and scholarships to go to college or other post secondary school to get out of the hood many times. The problem is the "culture" and cultural leaders in the black community discourages that pushing drugs, pimps, ho's, promiscuity & gang culture.
Go Google image "Black family" & look for old black & white images. Near everyone will have a well dressed Black family with a suited father, mother wearing a dress and a bunch of neatly dressed kids that look well behaved, schooled that have no idea what street drugs are. If they did happen to be around them the disciplinarian father family leader would make them wish they never did and don't ever again. Time outs don't make that kind of permanent impression.

As a black male I agree with you Lamont fully
Lamont is fair. My grandson is biracial and so is my niece. It is how you raise them. I know. I am disabled and helping my disabled daughter. Life is tough for everyone. Parents have to sacrifice sometimes. If a parent doesn’t learn to help themselves, they can’t teach their kids to become self sufficient. Hard work and putting God first. Also, I am a single mom. Generational disfunction. Put your anger and pride aside and get help. God helps those who help themselves.

Black culture reached its apex in the 1970s. It was awesome. Then rap came along and the whole culture started to spiral the drain.
No excuse
@@adamR1984 Agreed
Not the whole culture
When taking a deep dive into the statistics, both white and black communities were better off before forced integration. The government should have let it happen naturally. Once the black community got a taste of the welfare state they never looked back. They were WAY Better off left to their own devices to succeed.
Y'all seem to know and talk about everybodys problems but our own dang problems. I'll take that back, y'all just don't talk about white problems and the media has y'all thinking you're experts on other people.I get it, I could be just like y'all if I wanted to be phoney and hate others who legitimately should hate on us, But I'm not a follower like alot of you pencil neck cry babies.
I used to try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt , but its harder and harder. Im no liberal booty smootcher who runs to black businesses, gets dumped on and then praises their glory either. Im a white country boy from northern Florida. I went to a black barbershop not long ago and didn't know it untill i walked in. No biggie, ill give him my business because hes an American small business and thats who i support.
Long story short, im waiting and waiting and waiting while him and his " boys" run their mouths and get very little done. Some teenage boy comes in and says " yo brah, can you hit my sides quick?" Dude looked at me and said " hang tight brah, this will only take a minute ". I said " take all the time you need, just make sure you read my review tonight!" And i walked out. 🖕😘🖕
Perfect response
Same happened to me, in a place called Staunton Virginia, I knew that there were no black barbers in the area, but I thought that it being a “barber shop”, I could still possibly get my haircut, but unlike you, I actually called the business before showing up, asking them if they cut African-American hair, they said no, and hung up on me in my ear. 😂😂😂 they were white ! ………
@WrestleShadeTNS it definitely works both ways, but apparently yall's hair is harder to cut and you have to know what you're doing. I can't say for certain, but that's what I was told when I asked " why do they have barber shops specifically for black people?". I know if there were barber shops specifically for white people, everyone would throw a tantrum and pretend racism is a one way street. Either way, it's no excuse for them to be rude to you, just like there's no excuse for those jackasses to be rude to me. 🤷
@WrestleShadeTNS Also, how did you know they were white if all they said was "no"? Lmao 🤣
@ I googled the shop , I saw the yelp pictures , I heard his voice , ( I could tell he was a male ) - I saw the customer reviews & the majority of the shops clientele. They had photos of the barbers that work in the shop online. ( I can give you a link ) - it didn’t take much to know I was speaking to a white gentleman.
I recently hired a black HVAC tech to repair my commercial ice machine. He stole the parts I paid for on his account, and never responded to me again. Then I found out after hiring a legit company that he completely misdiagnosed the problem. What should have cost me $350 if done right the first time, ended up costing me over $1100.
NEVER again.
Craziness
As a black man, I don't blame you!
I'm black, and I don't deal with any black business, period.
That is so sad 😢 and it really should not be that way , I understand but it is sad too ! Especially for the good business people that actually serve people well , in their community
Racist
It's a red flag if a business makes a point of being black owned.
I have 0 problems with black businesses or any other that is not black. I do my homework. I will research for a long time. Once I have enough information, I will engage or not engage. I WILL NOT bash a business over a bad experience simply because it was black owned. I WILL bash ANY business if not dealt with properly. Perfect example are hotels. Look at the reviews on some. Plenty of bad service, filthy rooms, bed bugs, stale food, etc... Doesn't matter who owns. What are you getting???
But you guys take us Whites for granted
Our government gives black owned businesses special privileges and treatment,that’s raciest 🤬🤬

@buckskin64 Whites were favored prior to Civil Rights, and it built generational wealth.
Blacks were discriminated against,hence the GI Bill in its original form!!
@WrestleShadeTNS I'm not taking anybody's side here but I want to tell you why the Indians get those things it's not from the US government. I got this straight from the local liquor store owner who happens to be a friend of mine now. There are several large players involved from India who are billionaires and multimillionaires they give these high interest loans to the Indians that are coming to the United States and own a piece of the business until that loan is repaid with a maximum amount of interest if you're late on a payment they will take the business from you immediately if you've ever seen some gas stations will have multiple owners over a period of time that's because they're taking them away from them and giving them to somebody else with that same massive loan It doesn't come from the US government That's how they're able to buy all the gas stations and dairy Queens and vape shops and whatever

150.00 for an oil change? WTF? I am glad you called the cops Lamont.
Hell yeah i paid 165 at express oil change i couldn't believe that shit i was in a major hurry i could've easily bought the oil and did it myself it was for a 2015 Nissan Altima
I pay $100 at the dealership . So ya expensive
150 for a mom n pops shop is crazy
$20 or $25 for the oil and $10 for the filter unless you have a newer model.
It's €100 for an oil change in Ireland. Which is basically $100. It's €35 for the oil itself, then labour after.

Because they can't or they'll be labeled natzees and racists. Double standards

I'm South African white. My child invited and sponsored me and the wife for a month visit in Germany. First thing that was pointed out to me while walking in the street, was a plastic bag with a cellphone in it hanging in a tree. Someone dropped it, and the person who saw it placed it in the tree. The person who lost it will retrace his/her steps and find the lost property there. Just simple civilization. I did some experiments in shops by acting "suspicious" when paying at a cashier by "protecting" my card and pay serious attention to my immediate surroundings. One German girl took the bait and ask me why I act like that, and do not want to "tap" my card. I told her how careful you need to be in South Africa and her reaction was a kodac moment. : "Why would anybody steal/take someone else's stuff???" I got the exact same type of reaction 3 times in different situations where I explained my actions.

I am white. It's not an issue of race, it's not an issue of location. I believe you are seeing the breakdown and decline of our society. I had work done to my vehicle drove off with 4 bolts loose on my drive shaft, had to fix it myself. I use to do all the work on my vehicles myself but at 60 I thought I will let a shop ( owned and staffed by white men ) do the work, looks like I will do my own work from now on. The problem is the education system and the morals that people are exposed to as they grow up. If we don't change, we are doomed but it will be a slow decline and interesting, although sad, too observe. Think Roman Empire. Have a nice day.
He should be a man and tell us what the solution is. We don't need to be told that black crime is out of proportion to the population. Lamont, something sounds real fishy about this story. I think that you orchestrated this story for the clicks and views. Most of this video was about how he has never dealt with a black business that didn't end like this.He knew that he was going to Akron OH. Akron has a very high population of African Americans. Most black-owned businesses are in the black neighborhoods. He called to make an appointment. You mean he didn't know it was a black business, of course he did. Lamont knows that with the racial tensions the way they are in the country right now, that an anti black video is going to get lots of views and comments, 99% agreeing with him that the problem in this country are black people and immigrants. That sells. What you did not do Lamont is show the receipt that you got for the money you spent. You didn't tell us what the name of the business is. No pictures of your van up on the lift. He didn't even have to call the police. The guy said you don't have to call the police. Why did he call them, for an escort? Lamont is either very naive and stupid or he hates black people enough to make up a story like this. His story makes absolutely no sense. Here's a couple of things I found out about Akron after I saw the video.
The Akron chapter of the Ku Klux Klan reported having 50,000 members, making it the largest local chapter in the country during the 20th century. At some point the sheriff, county officials, mayor of Akron, judges, county commissioners, and most members of Akron's school board were members.
The distribution of methamphetamine ("meth") in Akron greatly contributed to Summit County becoming known as the "Meth Capital of Ohio" in the early 2000s.[The county ranked third in the nation in the number of registered meth sites. Those were not black folk making the meth.
I used to like Lamont. I remember he did a great video about young Emmett Till going down to Mississippi and getting slaughtered. But Lamont has turned into a self hating black man. Well part like anyway.

I think a lot of people feel weird when talking about black crime because there's always this emotional reaction from others, jumping straight to "you're r@cist". That's silly, people are allowed to talk about these things, as well as statistics.
That's the truth. I've had my own kids gasp at statistical remarks I've made about current crime rates when those statistics reference the black community. They tell me "You can't say that mom! That's racist!". But nobody bats an eye if I point out that the vast majority of serial killers are white males between 25 & 34 years old. We cant address a problem if we cant speak the truth about where the problem exists.
The white crimes they don't report historically tho talk about that first
Stereotypes and statistics are a thing for a reason 🤷🏼♂️ it's unfortunate, but black people are the ones that can change them. But it seems like a lot of them WANT to perpetuate them.. it's mind boggling.. 😮💨😔

Jay, Welfare pushed men out of the house in the 60s and took stigma and shame out of having children out of wed lock. It destroyed family structure. Kids raised by single mother grew up without structure and boundaries and by 1980s gaxxng culture took hold and rap started to spread. Since then this music and this gaxxng culture has done untold damage, and it’s still goi g on. This has to stop and tradition family values need to come back to restore blk family. Otherwise this rap and gaxxngs, and glorification of single motherhood will continue to damage blk family and blk young people.

I would guess that about 12% of our business is with black RV owners and the majority own a motorhome. In the past 5 years more and more black families are getting into RVing. I have never had a problem with any of our black customers. The motto at our business is.. "Our customers come in as a stranger and leave as friend", and this for the most part is true. I know that our situation is in reverse of your experiences, but I wanted to chime in with a different perspective. It's sad that this is true and it's difficult to understand. I think a lot of the issues in the black community is the fact that the democratic party has used them and abused them for so long. The majority of our black customers are republicans. Times are changing for sure :)
Think about it. What kind of family is buying an RV? The kind that is stable. Most black families are not stable so you are only seeing a successful portion of their population... which is good BTW. Not because of their skin color but because of the culture.
At some point they have to be held responsible for their behavior. We can't blame this and that for it.
You really need to start recording these conversations and outing these shady businesses
Im a white dude but live in a mostly black area. I try to always support local small businesses regardless of color. Because i live in a predominantly b;ack area most of those businesses are black owned. Ive had awful experiences with black owned business. Always rude, always over priced, usually low quality, and treat you like youre bothering them. Ive found myself now trying to avood these businesses unless word of mouth from people i trust tells me theyre good.
Yhe one black owned business i loved is sadly no longer around. It was a clothing store and the owner was incredibly friendly. Every weekend he would have a cookout in front pf his store and feed hungry families for free. The [rices were a little high but its a local business so i dont expect walmart or amazon prices. Besides i didnt mikd paying a little extra when i saw that he was trying to help out the community. I heard he shut down because people kept robbing him and burglarizing his business.
White guy here. I went to a black owned business. They robbed me and told me to consider it a down payment on my reperations bill. I love Amerragaa! Just teasing!!!
If you don't call people out, things won't change.
I protest with my wallet.
People forget that Lamont is half black.
@@DTownNash Poor Thing!
IMHO once glance and it's p obvious.
Ain't nobody forgot
His parents are both white af.
@@cyrollanNot to me looks like a white man a mean white man
As a middle aged man from a biracial background, i agree with you.💯
My cousins are mixed and they've been bullied there entire lives by black folks. They actually had to change schools several times from being assaulted.
So much truth to this. Last 10 years of my career in law enforcement I’ve been assigned to a juvenile section. Child advocates say that only kids of color are being detained and going to juvenile hall. I wondered why that is until I would see visitations and realize there’s only a mother or grandmother visiting, no father. Didn’t help how the mother was speaking to the child because she too is too young to be raising a kid and still acts like a child. Don’t have enough life experience to teach a young person. It’s a culture that needs to be addressed. We all must do better.
Wrong. The most involved fathers of ALL races are Black. CDC website will help your ignorance.
Mf I guess it’s not a lot of single white mothers out there right.. or is it just stats on black women..
The fathers are all social media complaining about black women, single mothers that they created and searching for their next victim.
@ 🤔 never said a specific color. Why would you assume it’s a black mother. Was that your most educated guess? 😆
@@ellyandeansdad mf play stupid if you want we know who your talking about..
I had some guy tell me an oil change was, and he told me $150.00, I told him because I'm a female he thought I was stupid, thanks but no thanks, I made an appointment elsewhere and paid $55.00 for it😂
55 dollars, you are not getting full synthetic. Change it in 3000 miles.
@@fanglethorpechange any oil every 3 to 5000 miles no matter what it is.
Yes, I change my oil every 3000 miles and I also get 5qts of synthetic oil and a new filter
The shop lost money ! you were part of an advertising plan to get new customers
into their shop in the hopes of having other repair work done. This does not make all other shops rip offs !
@@cantsneedgaming4591 Agreed on the oil change intervals, I use Kirtland synthetic from costco. It is the same as mobile one, the cost is 40 bucks. A filter cost about 10 more. And I don't pay to dispose of the oil since I can dump it in the apartment dumpster. A shop would lose money on a 55 dollar oil change.
I worked at a large postal sectional center near Chicago in the mid 80’s. My job gave me a leave of absence to see if I could better my situation. I stayed there for a month and went back to my old job. The word lazy is taken to a new level there. Funny it was all the blacks sleeping in the locker areas under the benches, up against the lockers, even in every toilet stall. Pretty weird…one girl threatened me for her people to get me outside because I took a cart I needed. I made the right choice not staying there. Obviously it’s not all the folks but it is a vast majority from what I witnessed.
I went to a major non-black owned shop for a leak in the window washer hose or water bottle. The "diagnostic" would cost $350. I don't go there very often, but every time they come up with repair "suggestions" over $1000. There are honest people and dishonest.
The algorithm really sent me one here, man. Thank you for keeping it real. Thank you for not being afraid to voice. What? You see what's going on in the world, you're correct, man. These youth need better role models. They need both parents. I need that family dynamic.
It's sad to see them. Acting the way that they are
Unrelated to race, I had a guy at Les Schwab hold my vehicle on a lift "Hostage". This was white on white.. but I went into a rage in their lobby. They should be taught, having on a lift that the customer can't control... that is about as close to theft as you can get.... it's not a bargaining chip.
He should be a man and tell us what the solution is. We don't need to be told that black crime is out of proportion to the population. Lamont, something sounds real fishy about this story. I think that you orchestrated this story for the clicks and views. Most of this video was about how he has never dealt with a black business that didn't end like this.He knew that he was going to Akron OH. Akron has a very high population of African Americans. Most black-owned businesses are in the black neighborhoods. He called to make an appointment. You mean he didn't know it was a black business, of course he did. Lamont knows that with the racial tensions the way they are in the country right now, that an anti black video is going to get lots of views and comments, 99% agreeing with him that the problem in this country are black people and immigrants. That sells. What you did not do Lamont is show the receipt that you got for the money you spent. You didn't tell us what the name of the business is. No pictures of your van up on the lift. He didn't even have to call the police. The guy said you don't have to call the police. Why did he call them, for an escort? Lamont is either very naive and stupid or he hates black people enough to make up a story like this. His story makes absolutely no sense. Here's a couple of things I found out about Akron after I saw the video.
The Akron chapter of the Ku Klux Klan reported having 50,000 members, making it the largest local chapter in the country during the 20th century. At some point the sheriff, county officials, mayor of Akron, judges, county commissioners, and most members of Akron's school board were members.
The distribution of methamphetamine ("meth") in Akron greatly contributed to Summit County becoming known as the "Meth Capital of Ohio" in the early 2000s.[The county ranked third in the nation in the number of registered meth sites. Those were not black folk making the meth.
I used to like Lamont. I remember he did a great video about young Emmett Till going down to Mississippi and getting slaughtered. But Lamont has turned into a self hating black man. Well part black anyway.
If you make an appointment and both parties agreed what time to meet and the price of service, when you arrive there and the worker says “What you need?” That would be the perfect time to leave. That shows that they’re not organized nor take their business and customers seriously.

The irony. Who wants to go ahead at the door and get " service" before price confirmation on paper first or lack thereof and the fact that their is always an individual more overdramatic to match your energy. WTH.😅😅😂
I agree with everything you said .100 percent agree
you better
$149 diagnostic fee abnormal. Dealership is more than that. But most shops apply that to your repair fee. $150 for an oil change is wild! My Duramax DIESEL is $180!!!! Dudes a scammer
Was ordering some DoorDash when I lived in Orlando and a new Black Owned Business was featured on the app: The Licking; a seafood restaurant. There was a drink called a”mystery drink” and it was soda&some type of juice, it was good. But, the seafood rice I ordered could have put me in the hospital if I wasn’t such a careful eater. So glad I did not serve it up for my family. Whoever made the rice actually smashed the shells of the seafood in w/the rice, or(I just thought of this)made it in a big pot and then stirred it around while doling it out. There were itty bitty teeny tiny pieces that i could still feel when sifting it through my hands. I left a one star on Yelp& was super surprised they were still in business months later. I’m not kidding when I state every single mouthful of rice was infused with a grainy shell texture. The rice wasn’t even that good. When you have to eat 1-3 grains of rice at a time with fingers because you can’t see the shell, that’s BAD. The only reason I was trying to eat any of it was because I wanted to leave a thorough review. I never ordered from them again. In fact, Doordash has put me off most restaurants. I ordered milkshakes from the Pine Hills area(Crime Hills if you’re from Orlando) and the bag and the shakes smelled strong like reefer. When I complained to Doordash they just didn’t care-no refund. They should really make it illegal to have a pet in the car, smoke anything or wear any kind of cologne when delivering food or groceries. It’s a federal offense to tamper w/food in a grocery store. But, it’s ok when a dog takes a crap or a wee on a grocery bag, a guy does a wake n bake inside the car w/your food right there, or his Drakkar Noir is SO strong you can smell it on the food and the bag?
Typical. (TNB)
Lamont went to a black owned business……again! 😆 I’m starting to love these.
I think I see a theme here...🤣

Send the mechanic shop an invoice for van rental @ $100 a minute. Put Out a lien out on their business if they don’t pay and collections
haven't even started watching and i already know this is going to be a good one
My favourite videos, hilarious 🤣
Thank you for this Lamont. It’s nice to see someone with a forum such as yours to speak up on the truth.
This is not his usual forum. He normally visits graves of famous people.
They must have really peed you off
This is a different channel.
You can do a oil change on your own lamont. Its like changing a tire...
Easy...take the plug out put a pan or bucket underneath to catch the oil. Take the oil out, put 6 quartz in. Change the filter and done!!
I was paying $100. Now I do my own and use an oil treatment on my Ford e350 super duty box truck. I'm feeling you. A white guy just worked me over after spending more than $300 for a battery when he broke the tie down working for a auto supply. He told me to put a bungee cord on it. I went to another store and Pedro fixed it so my truck wouldn't catch on fire. Race doesn't guarantee success or get in the way, unless you depend on it. I'm 70 and the prognosis isn't good for humanity
You think he was looking for instructions? He wants honest work done every time. Not too much to ask.
Thats not true at all. Alot of cars have become so difficult due to the oil filter location. Drain bolts are usually covered by underbody skid plates. So no its not “easy”. Its not 1961 anymore cars are complicated now.
Mister Bigalow~ You are 1, brave man! Wow!

Its a complicated situation. I hope things improve in Our Nation.
Welcome to Akron man. The armpit of Ohio. People avoid that place like the plague

It’s become a cautionary warning.
@@SapiophileGoddess agreed 🤣🤣.
That old addage: pay attention to your gut! It's true!!! Took me 1/2 my life to learn that lesson.
Cursing in an argument or dispute is valid. It’s clear concise and to the point. Now every word shouldn’t be a curse word but saying something like “I think you’re a fucking idiot.” Really gets the point across.
I’ve only been to a business that advertises themselves as “black owned” (as if that matters to anyone aside from woke liberals) once. It was a restaurant. It took us like 2 hours to get our food, no exaggeration. The jerk chicken was great, but the service was non-existent.
