I opened up my latest issue of Plane and Pilot(got it kinda late) and saw that STUPID article L. Freeman did. I wish Lynn and I could go flying since I am one of those, on occasion, will do the thumpity-thump thing at the stop light. Way to stereotype Lynn. Hopefully I'll see him at SMO again. I'd like to ask him if he was drunk when he wrote that LOL. 'Cause that'll explain it.
Might as well go back to "Dem dere black boys cant fly"

This just proves a point that racism does exist in the world. I have many friends who are African American, Haitian, Cuban, you name it. I married a girl who is Asian and I see racism and stereotyping with her everyday!! It makes me sick, even the little jokes and pokes of fun at other races. It happens everywhere, on this forum, in the streets at the workplace and IN MAGAZINES!
Don't let this guy hold you down man. Don't let him get to you in anyway! We are people living a dream and yes I have a Dream too!
In conclusion to this Hijack I'm writing, I leave you with these parting words. You have one life to live! Live YOUR DREAM!!DO NOT sweat the negativity! Let the negativity motivate you to be the absolute best you can be. I like a good challenge, I like proving people wrong and I love it when the odds are stacked against me and I succeed!

I don't see a damn thing racist about this article. Lyn is writing about rap music, and not the race of the musicians or the people who listen to it. Actually, wait...aren't there plenty of white rappers? Did he give any mention to black rappers specifically? Ooooh yeah.
Listen, this is an opinion article. He's not forcing you to open to page 6, and he's not forcing you to read it. If you don't like it, don't read it.
