> its just like if someone came out with a magazine called “Just for White men” it would be met with an insane amaount of criticism but there are plenty of mainstream mags for blacks etc…also BET. what if there was a WET. same difference. it sucks but thats how it is. i really dont care and i’m not trying to put down either side, im just stating it how i see it.

1st off…does the guy at the register say…"hey your white you can’t buy that Jet magazine…NO.

& second …about your WET & white magazine point… we talked about this before…months ago…MTV owns BET by the way.  
there is a BET cause pretty much every other channel is WET…same with magazines.

ie: a highschool/college blk girl…is she going to pick on a Jane, or Marie Claire magaizne?? when its going to talk about doing blonde highlights, who Mischa Barton is dating & have Carrie Underwood on the cover…no she will pick up a Ebony with Sinai Lathan on the cover

or maybe you feel that everyone should conform to the Mainstream majority which is white.

same with car mags…should a mustang owner only be able to get “muscle car” mag…no he probably wants 5.0 or whatever its called so its geared more towards what he has & likes.

same with sports mags.

& as far a people bringing up “free speech”  
yeah there is free speech, but there are consiquences…always have been & always will  
anyone can say whatever they want, but might get fired, arrested, punched in the face, or killed…thats just the way it is
