Raymond's Ebonics?


WHF? What kind of dialect was he speaking? That was some stereotypical racist BS there if you ask me.

Are you talking about Marcus? He was undercover. I don't think it was racial stereotyping, I think he was just trying to sound like an uneducated thug.

Granted, he was supposed to be undercover, i do have to agree with you that it was at the very least over done.

Spudjustic, Marcus's Ebonics were so thick and 'cracky' because [spoiler]yes he's undercover[/spoiler} but he's not only supposed to be uneducated, he's supposed to have spent quite a few stints in jail, where you'd assume he wasn't getting much of an education.

After having spend quite a bit of time among certain darker-skinned persons, I can assure you that his dialect was completely accurate and there was no BS.
