The Crip Walk, also known as the C-Walk, is a dance move that originated in the early 1970s by Crip gang members from the Compton suburb of Los Angeles, California.

    Yet another milestone in the decline of the USA.

    Liberals will say 'so what?' without any knowledge of what the c-walk stands for.

    The crips are a criminal organization built on murder, robbery an intimidation that have oppressed predominantly black neighborhoods through massive violence.

    For Compton's most famous woman to celebrate this criminal organization is depressing.

    crips gang violence

    Thank you for your response Pamela ...It never cease to amaze me how careless some blacks can be where matters such as this are concern...All while benefiting from the efforts of those tha came before them that made it possible for them have what is suppose to be equal rights... Now that they have acquired it they find it so easy to take it for granted....JOMO

    Nobody told her not to be happy.
    Nobody told her what to dance to.

    I am recognizing her disgusting actions and calling them to your attention.

    If you think it is nothing to celebrate the dance of a terrorist organization that I submit that you are morally confused.

    Like I said, it did start with Crips, but got absorbed into the mainstream, if anything, it may just be a Compton thing

    So her little acknowledging nod to the lower strata of her kind as an inclusionary gesture should be compared to the goose step of a nation that tried to conquer the world in an unpleasant way? You're stretching.

    It may have been a poor choice, but I'm sure her intention was not to glorify gang culture. To many people this is simply a dance, most don't even realize its orgin.

    Every famous people have detractors so the point is bizarre.

    Dominizue Dawes has had TREMENDOUSLY GOOD press (deservedly).

    The Obama have had 10 times the good press of any Republican.

    Do you want nobody to criticize the president? I don't know what you mean.

    I said it was a disgusting thing to do given how black people (and cops) have been murdered by crips in Compton.

    Is that what it was? I thought it was just arrogance, but it now reminds me of
    these 0lympics.



    As I recall, those 0lympians were subjected to extreme criticism and stripped of their metals. It is America who created the opportunities for all of these athletes to attend
    and win medals, and these athletes represent the United States of America...
    not just the American Blacks. It is a symptom of the divisiveness of the 0bama politics.

    Shame on 0bama........ shame on his divisive politics. It was 0bama who said,
    "we are not red states and blue states, we are the United States of America".
    That also extends to "we are not Black citizens and White citizens, we are American
    citizens of the United States of America. But what can you expect from a DOJ
    led by AG Holder who does not see justice as equal under the law?

    First her dance had nothing to do with recognizing or glorifying crips. Secondly, the 1968 Olympics raised fist was a protest as all on the podium including the Australian wore the Olympic Project for Human Rights Badges. And all knew the inequalities they would still face in the US when they came back regardless of Gold Medals. As far as Justice, FBI stats show that Whites are charged with 66% of US crimes and are only 40% of the prison pop. While Blacks are charged with 20% of US crimes yet are 50% of prison populaton. Is that justice? Do your research!

    It may have it's origins in gang culture but it got absorbed into Hip-Hop culture, it's just a dance, chill out
