The real question is: Would he walk to the other side of the street if it was a Dallas Mavs hoodie?

Honestly I don't get how you take the hoody comment at just face value. Somebody would have to be really silly to think somebody dressed like that is commiting robberies. Sometimes people go stupid for no reason because most know what the fukk he meant (even if we don't agree) when he said black person in a hoody.but why didn't cuban say tatted up black man or something comparable?
why are black people not allowed to wear a hoddie...and every other white dude in college ain't labled a thug?
if my black ass wears that i'm a thug now even at night?!?!? That's why i don't get the hoodie comment.
"Oh no, a menacing looking NEGROID in a hoodie! 
Grab the kids honey, let's walk to the other side, hurry..........w-w-hey wait, hey, that's Russell Wilson. *smiles uncontrollaby* Hey Russell how are ya man, you're our fav!!! Nice hoodie you got there!"

come on brah...you cant tell when someone is doing some dirt?so what do you advise people to wear when its cold? I mean people everywhere wear hoodies, from middle school thru college. We supposed to wear tenchcoats to make other people feel safe?
Im sorry he wasnt super detailed w/ his description...but you know what he was trying to say.
If you dont look like a clown, then why are you so offended?
This is part of the problem...folks like to pretend shyt doesnt exist.
He was talking about cats that look like this

What yours?
That's what I'm saying everybody in college wears hoodies, even when its hot as heck outside, because the AC be on full blast inside the class room...but why didn't cuban say tatted up black man or something comparable?

The problem with white people when talking about race is that they always try and equate things to white folks that just make it impossible to take their argument seriously. It just exposes that they really have no contact with people of other cultures, races or ideologies and then use the same tired stereotypes they see play out on TV.
We need discussions like this but progress would be Cuban sitting back, hearing the criticism and seeing where he is wrong and ignorant. But that won't happen because people who agree with Cuban will cape for his comments and the people who disagree will just end up arguing with people who don't have the experience or mental capability to do so.
White people need to stop thinking being aware of stereotypes is some kind of non-racism. Acting on those stereotypes and prejudice is where the racism comes from, not from acknowledging the flawed logic that leads to it.

So now you're basically saying someone who "looks suspicious"? Not making yourself look any better.
Cuban literally keeps it the realest he can possibly be, and he gets some backlash for it 
and this after coli members distrust any white person cause of their "hidden racism"
and acting like the stereotype of "black guy in a hoodie" isn't a stereotype cause it's absolutely true
y'all know exactly what the fukk he's referring to and still acting like it's not true
hey guys, your blackness card is in the mail
y'all are a trip

no one is outraged he spoke openly....it has nothing to do with him speaking openly...it has to do with what he openly said...people like to hide behind the 1st amendment when they say dumb shyt thinking it protects them from repercussions from the dumb shyt they just said...no, it doesn't work like that....it only gives you the right to say dumb shyt...but once that dumb shyt is spoken, it's fair game...and that's what we're discussing here... he really said a black kid in a hoodie gives him the same fear a neo Nazi looking white man does....think about that for a sec....a piece of clothing on a black kid instills the same fear as an extremist looking white man?...lol come the fukk on....
as for the where yall from comment: yea, people wear that outfit to do dirt...but people also wear it cause it's comfortable and keeps you warm when it's chilly/cold out....clothes don't make the person, they're just clothes...
on a side note: what's ironic about this - in the same interview he said he wants morons to say stupid shyt openly so he can know who they are....well, thanks mark, we now know you're a fukking moron...
