White men in fancy ass suits WERE gangsters..in the 1920s-1950s. Now adays gangsters are black people with sagging pants, basketball jerseys down to there knees, and glocks by there nuts.

Wait, wait... Let me make sure I'm reading this right.
You're suprised that modern society has become idiotic, hippocritical, and pathetic?
I'd be lucky to get smacked in the face if I ran around my old school (In the Detroit Public School District) screaming "nigger", but if I got a boombox and a rap CD it's fine to have the artist say "nigga" as much as they'd like.
People are considered "empowering" if they offer scholarships exclusively to women or minorities. If they offer a scholarship only to white males, then they're sexist and racist.
In order to not hurt the feelings of kids who way twice as much as me simply from eating too much (I have nothing against people who can't help it like diabetics) we have gotten rid of timed fitness testing in our gym classes. No wonder we're the fattest state.
More than 7 years later after 9/11, 9/10 people with brown skin were pulled aside in the airport security line to be hand-scanned, and two white old people were hand scanned at the same time so the airports didn't look like they were profileing. And do't even get me started on the body language of people from there to landing.
In 5th grade my school prohibited teachers from hanging signs that only wished people a "Merry Christmas" because it doesn't honor the holidays of other religions. A few years later, hanging a sign for each major religion was unacceptable, because it didn't honor the lesser known religions. So, our teachers put up signs that read "Happy Holidays", which were fine until this year when our teachers were asked to not hang a sign stating it was a holiday, because religions that don't celebrate a holiday during this period and atheists could be offended. Teachers can't use the colors red and green together in a display during the month of December.
When talking about a person with white skin, people use the term "White". When talking about someone with of hispanic decent, people use the term "Hispanic". When talking about someone with black skin, people use the term "African American". Honestly, what the hell? Am I "European American"? No. Are people whose ancestors came here from Mexico "Mexican American"? NO. So why are people "African American"? That term is racist by itself. People with "black" skin can come from Trinidad, the Dominican Republic, Haati, Jamaica, and EVERY OTHER COUNTRY ON THE GLOBE. If you are black and born in Mexico you are not AFRICAN you are MEXICAN. Your skin color is not African American it is BLACK. But at the end of the day, if I called Rev Al "Black" to his face I'd be deemed a racist as fast as he could pull the accusation out of his ass (which is pretty fast).
People using the term "gangsta" is the tip of the iceberg. Nowadays spelling stupid titles like "skater" with both incorrect spelling AND numbers (sk8ar) is cool. Stars that belonged to the Bloods or Crips (even if chances are good they committed murder) are cooler than those who didn't. People felt bad for Paris Hilton during her jail time, despite the fact her sentence was so light for a crime that made her a danger to others. People are shocked that Spears #2 is having a kid and to top it off are INTERESTED.
There are hundreds of these that I could list, but I think I've made my points. I can type about nothing for a long time and the topic is nothing more than the tip of the iceberg.

I didn't read another other post but yours, but are you confusing mobsters with gangsters? I guess there both basically the same thing though, except gangsters are black....for the most part.

ignorance - "The condition of being uneducated, unaware, or uninformed."
By your post I assume you are black and calling people here ignorant for, in a sense, bashing blacks.
Well, you seem to be uninformed or just oblivious to the information confronting you. You may be well above average, but as any study (see me previous post) blacks as a race are inferior. You seem to be unaware and uneducated to this fact so here I am to inform you...

k well first off I AGREE!! omg!! i live in a small farm town in british columbia, canada. HALF of my skool thinks they are a gangster, i pantsed one kid whos pants were already down to his knees cuz he thinks hes a gangster. a "gangster" would turn around and knock me out. he didnt, he stood there embarassed in his tighty whities. does he wear low pants or think hes a gangster anymore? no. im PROUD that i dont think im a gangster. no offence to all of you who are native but 1/4 of my skool is native and not one of them dresses normally, they all dress and walk like a gangster... ERRR!!! im glad someone made this thread so i could vent my frustration on fake gangsters... thx buddy 
your not gangster tell you have been arested? lol
ur talking about the gangsters back then
gangsters have changed
u think ppl are gunna walk around in suits thinking their gangster?no those are for polite buisenessmen.....
if a gangster nowaday would dress in a suit they would think hes a smart nerd thats just a poser
and if ppl call white gangsters posers its because the majority of gangsters are black
