Sometimes he pisses me off by speaking out for black people even when he doesn't represent our views.

“Black people, if you really want to fix the problem, here’s just five things that you should think about doing,” Lemon continued. He then listed the five things:

hike up your pants
finish school
don’t use the n-word
take care of your communities
don’t have children out of wedlock.

Most of us do these things. I know I do. It's doesn't help the perception problems that I run up against. He might as well have said, " Don't forget to bleach your skin, too"
I'm tired of him. I used to like him, now I don't.
